OCTOBER IS BREAST CANCER AWARENESS MONTH

BY KIRK [email protected]

ARLINGTON — Although the two tables of kids at their laptops did their best to maintain respectful-ly low tones, the Arlington Library was nonetheless abuzz with flashing lights and electronic noises on Wednesday, Oct. 23, as the eight students in the fourth and final week of “Explore Arduino” saw their pro-gramming lessons pay off.

The Sno-Isle Libraries Foundation secured a stra-tegic initiative grant for the “Explore Arduino” course in do-it-yourself electron-ics, which was new to the Arlington Library and enlisted the aid of its teen librarian, Kelli Bragg, to provide in-library demon-strations and supervise the students’ hands-on interac-tions with the equipment.

“That money was set

aside for exploring technol-ogy,” said Bragg, in between examining the kids’ connec-tions between their laptops and their circuit boards. “The goal of this project is to teach them physical com-puting, to show them how to get their computers to run tools in the real world, whether it’s making coffee or watering plants.”

The culminating project of the four-week “Explore Arduino” course was a bit simpler, but by teaching them how to light up LEDs and make electronic music play, Bragg hopes that the students will be armed with basic skills that they can apply to more complex pro-gramming tasks.

“I was surprised by how quickly the kids took to the circuit boards and all their components, although it did

ARLINGTON — Friday, Oct. 25, saw the Angel of the Winds Casino officially break ground on construction of a new $20 million, 125-room, five-story hotel.

“This is the next step in our growth of the Angel of the Winds Casino,” said Koran Andrews, CEO of the Stillaguamish Tribal Enterprise Corporation. “We continue to look at what our guests want,

and develop those amenities.”“We are truly blessed to

have an opportunity to add a hotel to our facility, and pro-vide more services to our guests,” Stillaguamish Tribal Chair Shawn Yanity said of the expansion, which will add more than 100,000 square feet to the casino, in the form of not only a new hotel, but also a new gift shop and smoke shop, as well as a porte-cochere to

help that the kits did a lot to guide them through the process,” said Bragg, who noted that each kit cost about $100. “From there, they downloaded the pro-gramming codes.”

Although only four kids attended all four classes, Bragg estimated that the classes maintained an aver-age of about eight students each week, whom she assist-ed in their final week by helping them diagnose any problems with their work.

“The troubleshooting has been the hardest part of this project,” Bragg said. “Then again, that’s usually the hardest part of any proj-ect like this. It takes time to figure out whether they’ve plugged something into the wrong spot, or whether they might just have a bad LED unit.”

While the course’s pro-gramming tasks can be demanding, Bragg report-ed that all of her students were fully engaged with the material, and confident in their own ability to tackle it.

“They really appreciate the physicality of the engi-neering, I think,” Bragg said. “When they made the right connections, lights would go on and music would start to play. It’s a great way to introduce them to electron-ics and computing at this age without scaring them. The first time I mentioned the word ‘programming,’ a few of them tensed up, but they’ve done very well with coding and assembly, and gotten really enthusi-astic about it. As opposed to standard classroom lec-tures, I think a lot of kids

are just naturally hands-on learners.”

All of the students who spoke to The Arlington Times echoed Bragg’s sunny evaluation of their “Explore Arduino” experiences.

“It’s been fun,” said 10-year-old Peter Scollard, leading with the same word that all the kids used right away to describe how they felt about the course. “I liked making all the stuff and figuring out how to do things.”

Scollard was only able to attend three of the classes, after his mother read about the course being offered at the Arlington Library in the newspaper. In spite of not having any prior robot-ics experience, he’s already considering buying a kit of his own.

“I like being able to make things work,” said 11-year-old Darius Storm, who

attended all four classes. “I built a robot arm before, but that didn’t have a computer chip, like this. It was hard-wired. This isn’t like when I tried to fly an RC plane, and the prop wouldn’t turn. That was discouraging.”

Fellow 11-year-old four-class-attendee Owen LaSalata was already a bit of a gear-head going into this course, but the experience more than lived up to his standards.

“I love robotics,” LaSalata said. “I’m involved in like three or four different clubs for it. I like science so much, but robotics is the most fun. A lot of other sciences are about mixing things, but I like working with parts more than I like mixing substanc-es.”

At the age of 14, Michael Coalwell had little prior experience in this field.

“I bought one kit, but that

was because my mom want-ed me to make a game show buzzer for a 4-H program,” said Coalwell, in between snatching cookies from the shared wealth of snack foods at the center of his table of four. “It’s been great building new things, though.”

Science-minded kids who missed out on “Explore Arduino” will have another chance to get their science on at the Arlington Library with “Crazy Concoctions: A Mad Scientist’s Guide to Messy Mixtures,” which starts at 2 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 26, and will feature experiments and recipes from the book by Jordan D. Brown, as kids wear old clothes and get ready to get messy in the name of science.

centralize guests’ entrances to the property. “Not only are we growing our tribal economy, but we’re grow-ing the local economy, too, by increasing job opportu-nities and tourism.”

According to Travis O’Neil, general manager of the Angel of the Winds Casino, planning for the new hotel expansion began roughly 18 months ago, but the possibility of such an expansion was factored into the casino’s plans shortly before its previous expansion six years ago.

“We’ve got a master plan, but we also listen to our guests,” O’Neil said. “We blocked out the space for this sort of expansion, because we always had in mind that the Angel of the Winds Casino would become a destination resort. We might as well reach for the stars. We’ve got a good group of people, who do their best for our guests, and the Stillaguamish Tribe has been willing to support us, so long as they see our accomplishments.”

As far as O’Neil is aware, the Angel of the Winds Casino is one of the last, if not the last, casino on the I-5 corridor to add its own hotel, and he touted the new hotel — which is anticipated to open in the winter or spring of 2015, creating an estimated addi-tional 50 jobs for the local community in the process — as “moderately priced, but not lower-end.”

“The hotel will be just as comfortable and nice as they’ve come to expect from the casino,” O’Neil

said. “It promises to be a very good complement to the World’s Friendliest Casino.”

Beyond the jobs that will be created once the new hotel opens, O’Neil also touted the local con-struction jobs that will be created in the meantime, since he expects that the Bellingham-based Excel Pacific will retain a number of subcontractors, whose employees he believes will likely include more than a few folks from Marysville and Arlington.

“We’ve got other steps in our master plan, but it would be premature to dis-cuss those at this point,” O’Neil said. “For right now, we just want to focus on making this hotel a success, and I just want to thank the Stillaguamish Tribe for the opportunities they’ve given me in this job. Their elders paved the way for this, and they’re support-ing it because they’re mind-ful of leaving something to their future generations. It’s been a blessing to work with them.”

The Angel of the Winds is located three minutes east of I-5 Exit 210 in Arlington.

Arlington, Marysville and Everett residents will be among those throughout Snohomish County to get an extra chance to securely dispose of unwanted medi-cations on Saturday, Oct. 26.

County residents are encouraged to clean out their medicine cabinets and take their unused prescriptions to secure disposal locations, coor-dinated by the Snohomish County Partnership for Secure Medicine Disposal. All these sites will accept unwanted vitamins, pet medications, over-the-counter medications, inhal-ers and unopened EpiPens, as well as controlled sub-stances such as painkillers.

“Law enforcement, pub-lic health and environmen-tal professionals support take-back programs as the safest and most responsible way to get rid of unwant-ed and expired medicines that might otherwise harm

people or the environ-ment,” said Jonelle Fenton-Wallace, the Snohomish Health District represen-tative on the Snohomish Regional Drug and Gang Task Force.

In addition to twice-yearly drug take-back days, all law enforcement loca-tions in the county take back unwanted medicines, including controlled sub-stances, throughout the year, Mondays through Fridays. Year-round drop-off locations include the NCIS office at Naval Station Everett for those with access, the Washington State Patrol office in Marysville, and the tribal police stations on the Tulalip and Stillaguamish reservations. The year-round countywide drop-off sites have collected more than nine tons of unwanted drugs since 2009.

The Snohomish County Partnership for Secure Medicine Disposal address-es growing community

concerns about abuse, acci-dental poisonings, over-doses and contamination of water from unwanted medications. Year-round programs ensure that resi-dents have ongoing access to safe disposal of unwant-ed and expired medicines. Partnership members include the Snohomish

Health District, Snohomish County and its Sheriff ’s office, the Snohomish Regional Drug and Gang Task Force, the Washington State Patrol and all local law enforcement agencies.

The Drug Enforcement Administration National Drug Take-Back Day will run at the following loca-

tions and times on Oct. 26:n The Arlington Police

Department at 110 E. Third St. from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.

n The Marysville Police Department at 1635 Grove St. from 1-3 p.m.

n The Everett Police Department’s North Precinct at 3002 Wetmore Ave. from 8 a.m. to noon.

Other site locations and times are available online at www.takebackyourmeds.org, or by calling 425-388-3199. Year-round loca-tions can be found at www.snohd.org, by searching for “Unwanted Medicine.” For more information on the Snohomish Health District, log onto www.snohd.org.

LETTERS TO THE EDITORVote for Bill Blake

With all of the hugely negative political news everyone has been hammered with lately, it almost seems that a lot of people may be pretty apathetic about voting in the upcoming Nov. 5 election. However, I once heard that chang-ing things on the federal level is a pretty hard thing to do while doing the same along local lines can at least sometimes yield changes that benefit the community.

Two well qualified candidates are running for Snohomish Council District 1, Bill Blake and Ken Klein. Ken serves the Arlington City Council and serves as vice-president of the Snohomish County Planning Commission while Bill has worked in Arlington’s Land Use and Permitting Division and now works as Stormwater Supervisor.

So who do you vote for? Do you vote along Party lines? Most people tend to lean that way. I think in this case though it’s better to look at how these candidates view how Snohomish County will look in the years to come. We all want a viable economy with a diverse economic base, a region that offers jobs and opportunities of all kinds. The question becomes then, how much do we want our physical landscape to change in response to this new growth. Do we sacrifice our rural lands in the name of development? Will our natural resources be put at risk? Should property rights take precedence over common sense preservation of rural resources? While Ken Klein has some experi-ence serving in public office, I feel that Bill Blake has the advantage over him in other ways. Bill has

worked alongside a variety of dif-ferent groups and people, attend-ing a large number of public meet-ings advocating for the preserva-tion of sustainable AG land, pro-motion of sustainable forest indus-try jobs, and restoring the health of our waterways. Bill has spent hundreds if not thousands of hours of his after-work “spare” time not only meeting with advocates on all sides of these issues, but also actu-ally walking the land with many of them. Bill understands the issues, he understands the land. He is well respected for his ability to reach out to those on all sides of an issue with positive results. While Ken Klein will someday be a great candidate for this position, I think he would do well to put on his hip waders and follow Bill’s footsteps through muddy fields, bushy wetlands, small creeks and rivers to see how every-thing interacts and to understand how critical it is to preserve the natural elements while also encour-aging development in an integrated and responsible manner.

Bill Blake has that experience and a background that can provide the vision Snohomish County needs to move toward a sustainable future, a future where growth and our rural character are balanced.

Whether you are a Democrat or a Republican, please consider Bill Blake in your vote and be sure to check out his web site at www.vote-forbillblake.com.

Klein for CouncilNot long ago, Americans were

told that Detroit, one of America’s largest cities, filed for Bankruptcy.

But, wait, since then, Washington D.C., Camden, N.J., Cincinnati, Ohio, San Diego, San Jose, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Calif. and Baltimore, Md., are all fac-ing similar fates. Can it happen in Snohomish County? Most would say, “No way!” But, I would caution you that the 1,000,000 people who once lived in Detroit and fled probably said the same thing. So, what does this have to do with a County Council race in Snohomish County? It has every-thing to do with it.

While the opposing candidate has experience in government resource and water management there is only one candidate who has the financial expertise to help Snohomish County thrive and not follow in the footsteps of Detroit and other American cities who are near bankruptcy. Those cities are not in severe financial straits because of their “water manage-ment” services or because they were trying to restore some animal habitat, they are there because of poor financial accountability. The County already employs many professionals with years of public experience in a variety of areas to do the research and studies neces-sary to inform the Executive and the Council. The Council over-sees these projects and funding streams which make Snohomish County a truly viable community both commercially and socially.

Ken Klein has a solid back-ground in accounting and finance both in education and employment which will help the County make wise and prudent financial deci-sions with the taxpayer’s money.

A little creek in eastern Washington was at the center of an important

water quality ruling recently by the Washington State Supreme Court, reaffirming the state’s right to regulate nonpoint sources of pollution in streams. Nonpoint pollution takes many forms, such as higher water tem-peratures, sediment, stormwater runoff, fecal coliform bacteria from failing septic systems and agricultural practices.

For 10 years the state Department of Ecology (DOE) tried to work with rancher Joseph Lemire to keep his 29 head of cattle out of Pataha Creek, a small stream that runs through his property near Dayton. Lemire’s cattle had unrestricted access to the creek, leading to manure in the stream, eroded streambanks and increased sedi-ment in the creek.

When DOE finally ordered Lemire to stop polluting by fenc-ing cows out of the creek, the rancher appealed, claiming that a fence would restrict use of his land and therefore was an unlaw-ful “taking” of his property. The state Supreme Court disagreed in an 8-1 ruling.

The fact that it took nearly a decade to get one rancher to do the right thing is made even more disturbing because Pataha Creek was selected as a model watershed in 1993 by the Bonneville Power Administration. BPA and other agencies have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars working with ranchers and farmers to provide everything from streamside fenc-ing to tree and shrub planting to help improve the creek.

Twenty years of voluntary efforts haven’t turned the tide of nonpoint pollution in many Washington watersheds. As the Lemire example shows, some-

times it takes more than money and voluntary efforts to protect our resources. And sometimes, all it takes to jeopardize our work is one landowner who’s not willing to do the right thing.

Thankfully, the state has the authority to control these sources of pollution, and was willing to take the case to the state Supreme Court to defend it. That’s encour-aging, because the ruling wasn’t anything new. It’s just a matter of the state having the will to use its authority to regulate nonpoint source pollution. We shouldn’t have to look to the courts for leadership.

Let’s hope the court’s ruling will translate into better water qual-ity protection on this side of the mountains, too. Our treaty rights depend on it.

Our treaties guaranteed us the continued right to fish and gather shellfish, which depends on good water quality to ensure healthy salmon habitat and shellfish that are safe to eat. Nonpoint sourc-es of water pollution constantly threaten our natural resources. When a shellfish harvest area is closed because of pollution, or salmon runs are reduced because of poor water quality, our treaty rights are denied altogether.

We all live downstream — every one of us. We need to keep that in mind and work together to restore and protect water quality in this state.

Billy Frank Jr., is Chairman of the Northwest Indian Fisheries Commission.

One small stream could mean better water quality statewide

Whether that money comes from the county, state or federal government, it is all taxpayer money. The Council’s real job is to oversee the County’s finances as careful-ly and responsibly as possible to meet the greatest number of needs of the citizens within its financial means.

Ken only recently began his public ser-vice with his election to the Arlington City Council, so his previous experience in the private rather than public sector will bring a fresh, fiscally responsible, differing point of view to the Council. Please vote to elect Ken Klein to the County Council!

Norton for Marysville City Council

As a mother of four school-aged chil-dren, my first priority is naturally the children of our community. I’m excited to have a candidate like Kamille Norton, who has a real investment in the safety and best interests of the children and families of

Marysville and is running to ensure a safe and thriving community for all of us.

Kamille Norton’s experience on the City Council and in several other advisory and leadership positions in our community are other major factors in her securing my vote. It’s refreshing to have a candidate in whom I have full confidence on the ballot.

Bill Blake deserves your vote

When considering your vote for County Council District 1, consider this: Bill Blake is an absolutely genuine article. I’ve never met anyone so sincere in the simple and unpolluted wish to help his district.

Bill is not a polished politician. His hand-painted banners and scruffy beard point to a different kind of candidate than we’re used to. He speaks his mind, and is always truthful. If you want to know how Bill stands on an issue, ask him. If you want to know what kind of candidate, or more importantly what kind of man he is, talk to him for five minutes and you’ll know.

Bill will show fiscal responsibility. I hap-

pen to know that Bill made the posts his signs are stapled to from 2x4s he bought at Arlington Hardware and donated recycled wood scraps. He just couldn’t see wasting money when he could do the job himself. He will be just as careful with our tax dol-lars, encouraging prudence and thrift.

Bill knows District 1 and the impor-tant issues facing it. He’s a rural man who lives a rural life. He’s lived and worked in Snohomish County most of his life and many of the same issues your family faces here his family does as well. He will make sure the voice of North County is heard.

Bill has had a lengthy and decorated career. He isn’t in this to impress, or to gain a foothold for higher office. Bill just wants to help, period.

Stickles for Arlington City Council

I am writing today to endorse Jesica Stickles for Arlington City Council.

I met Jesica in 2011, when I first started working at the Chamber office. From our first meeting, I knew she was organized,

professional and goal-oriented. She doesn’t just set a goal, she works out how to get there and follows the steps to accomplish the goal. I watched her successfully steer the Chamber through a difficult year, mak-ing the tough decisions required to reach compromises and the final goal of stability.

Jesica and I worked on several commit-tees together. She is excellent at reading and understanding contracts and regu-lations and she pays close attention to details, especially in the budget. As a busi-ness owner, she knows what local small businesses need in this economy and has the ability to balance that against budget concerns.

I have always been impressed with her ability to handle any challenge that pres-ents itself, including challenging people. She is always open to hearing from anyone with a concern or idea and is passion-ate about any task, committee or goal she takes on.

I have no doubt that Jesica will make an excellent and productive council member for Arlington. I highly recommend her for this position and will be voting for her on Nov. 5.

While a number of Halloween-themed community events will kick off during the weekend before Halloween itself, the Downtown Marysville Merchants Association will be commemorating Halloween on Oct. 31.

From 4:30-5:30 p.m. that Thursday, participating merchants on Third Street will dress up for the occasion and hand out candy to trick-or-treaters for free.

“It’s great for kids who are tod-dlers up to 10 years old, and their folks,” said Mary Kirkland, owner of Hilton’s Pharmacy on Third Street. “You don’t have to line up in any particular order, either. Just come on by and enjoy.”

Kirkland noted that a number of businesses on Fourth and Second streets, the latter including The Vintage Violet, will also be taking part in the afternoon’s activities, during which time she expects to see several of her fellow merchants following her example by donning their own costume finery to greet the children in the spirit of the holiday.

“The event is always fun and casual, with lots of darling young children and their families on the sidewalks, some out for their first Halloween trek,” Kirkland said. “At Hilton’s, we’re even going with a theme again this year, but we’re keeping it under wraps until the big day.”

Kirkland advised trick-or-treat-ers that they might also find some candy on the west side of State Avenue, just across the intersection from Third Street.

“The downtown merchants are also sponsoring a coloring contest, from now until Halloween,” said Kirkland, who pointed kids and families alike to the Downtown Marysville Merchants Association website at www.marysvillemer-chants.com for the picture that they can color, which is also available at any DMMA business. “Children from ages 2-12 years are invited to color the Halloween picture, drop it off at any Third Street business, and be entered into the contest to win two movie tickets, if they win first, second or third place.”

Besides on-street parking on Third Street, families can find extra parking on Columbia Avenue and Second Street, as well as limited parking in the Carabinieri Espresso Bar parking lot.

The Marysville Care Center’s annual “Trick-or-Treat Street” will also take place on Thursday, Oct. 31. Enterprising trick-or-treaters who still feel like filling up on candy after visiting Third Street can swing by the Marysville Care Center at 1821 Grove St. from 6:30-7 p.m. for their haunted house, games and more.

A full day of events is sched-uled in downtown Arlington on the Saturday before Halloween.

The annual pumpkin carv-

ing contest will again be held at Arlington Hardware & Lumber, located at 215 N. Olympic Ave. Contestants are encouraged to drop off their decorated pumpkins and register on Saturday, Oct. 26, from 7-10 a.m. Judging of the pumpkins will take place on Oct. 26 at 11 a.m., with a drawing for a bicycle.

Arlington United Church is host-ing a “Harvest Party” on Oct. 26 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. The church is located just east of Olympic Avenue, at 338 N. McLeod Ave. For more information, log onto www.auc1.org.

The Downtown Arlington Business Association is sponsor-ing trick-or-treating along Olympic Avenue, at participating businesses, that same Saturday from noon to 1 p.m., with a costume contest to fol-low at Legion Park at 1 p.m.

“It’s very generous of the down-town businesses to host the trick-or-treating event each Saturday before Halloween,” said city of Arlington Recreation Manager Sarah Lopez, who sadly confirmed that this year’s pumpkin roll and pumpkin pie con-test have been cancelled due to a lack of sponsors. “It gives the kids an additional opportunity to show off their costumes, and parents can see what businesses along Olympic Avenue are up to. Members of the Arlington Arts Council will be judg-ing these costumes, and providing pizza certificates for first place in each category, while the city will

provide ribbons for every contes-tant, from babies to adults.”

The Mirkwood Shire Café at 117 E. Division St. is staging its fifth annual “Zombie Ball” at 7 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 26, with tickets run-ning $10 each.

The Arlington High School Future Farmers of America will also get into the Halloween spirit with a “Haunted house” on Oct. 26, from 6:30-9:30 p.m. on both days, in the AHS greenhouse. Adults pay $5, while kids 12 years and younger pay $3.

On Sunday, Oct. 27, the Medallion Hotel at 16710 Smokey Point Blvd. will serve as the new site for the return of “Trunk or Treat” from 4-6 p.m.

For more information about these events in Arlington, please call the recreation office at 360-403-3448, or log onto www.facebook.com/arling-tonwa.

The Marysville Rotary’s “Pumpkins for Literacy” pumpkin patch, at the Plant Farm at Smokey Point, will run through Halloween, to give local families a chance to pick up their choice of jack-o’-lan-terns. Their pumpkin patch is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily. Field trips to the Plant Farm at Smokey Point can be scheduled through Toni Mathews at the Marysville branch of the Whidbey Island Bank, by phone at 360-657-3100 or via email at [email protected]. The Plant Farm is located at 15022 Twin

Lakes Ave. in Marysville, and is online at www.theplantfarm.com.

Third-generation farmer Gary Biringer and his wife Julie have replaced the former Biringer Farm Pumpkin Patch with the Black Crow Pumpkin Patch, located at 2431 Highway 530 in Arlington. Their pumpkin patch is open daily through Halloween, from noon to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday, from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Saturday, and from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Sunday. Biringers’ first-ever doggie costume contest is set to kick off at 2 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 26. Tours can be arranged by appointment by calling 360-435-5616. For more informa-tion, you can “like” the Biringers’ Black Crow Pumpkin Patch and Corn Maze on Facebook at www.facebook.com/biringers.black.crow.

Foster’s Produce and Corn Maze, located at 5818 Highway 530 NE in Arlington, is also welcoming visitors through Thursday, Oct. 31. The giant pumpkin patch will be open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily. Sufficiently brave souls are invited to play in the spooky Night Maze and Giant Pumpkin Hunt from 5-9 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 26, although they should bring flashlights.

Arlington, Marysville celebrate Halloween Oct. 26-31


MARYSVILLE — Marysville resident and certified public accountant Jeri Wilkes, chief finan-cial officer of United Way of Snohomish County, was recently named Finance Officer of the Year by United Way Worldwide at a national conference in

Atlanta.“This award is a testa-

ment to Jeri’s hard work and longstanding com-mitment to United Way’s financial accountability and transparency,” said Dr. Dennis G. Smith, president and CEO of United Way of Snohomish County. “It

reflects her overall proven leadership skills, which she provides regularly in our organization, and across the entire United Way system.”

The United Way Finance Officer of the Year Award is presented to a financial offi-cer in the United Way sys-tem who exhibits outstand-ing leadership in financial management, and is seen as a role model inside and

outside of their organiza-tion. There are nearly 1,800 community-based United Ways in 38 countries and territories.

“I am thrilled to win this award,” said Wilkes. “More than just a personal accom-plishment, it also reflects United Way’s promise of excellence in nonprofit financial management.”

In addition to her com-

mitment to United Way’s sound fiscal policies, Wilkes was nominated for this award because of her leadership in conducting lean training for nonprof-its throughout Snohomish County. She also oversaw the creation of a business continuity plan for United Way of Snohomish County, and led the refinancing of United Way’s building loan,

saving donors $88,000 per year. During her tenure, all audits have come back with a clean opinion. She is also a past chair of United Way Worldwide’s Financial Issues Committee.

Wilkes has been with United Way of Snohomish County for more than 14 years, beginning as a gen-eral ledger accountant and working her way up to CFO.

ARLINGTON — The Girl Scouts of Service Unit 215 braved blustery winds to treat locals and visitors to the Arlington area to some seasonal fun.

According to Elise Simbeck, who serves as the PR coordinator for the Girl Scouts of Service Unit 215, more than 70 Girl Scouts helped the folks at Foster’s Produce & Corn Maze prepare for their month-long Fall Pumpkin & Corn Maze Festival in October by arriving on Sept. 28 to build the scarecrows that now decorate the farm and attract attention from pass-ing motorists on State Route 530.

“Girl Scouts of all ages joined creative forces to give each of the scare-crows its own personality,” Simbeck said. “Cooperative learning is one of the pro-cesses in which the Girl Scout program helps the girls to develop leadership skills.”

Simbeck reported that the Girl Scouts also collect-ed an estimated 50 pieces of clothing, including eight winter jackets, 10 winter hats and 10 pairs of gloves, all of which were donated to the Arlington-based Kids’ Kloset.

“I will definitely organize

this event again next year,” said Natalie Reed, commu-nity service coordinator for the Girl Scouts of Service Unit 215.

Foster’s Produce & Corn Maze is located at 5818 State Route 530 NE in Arlington. For further details, log onto www.fosterscornmaze.com.

MARYSVILLE — Area orthodontist Dr. Jason Bourne is bringing back his Halloween candy buy-back program for the 10th year, starting on Tuesday, Nov. 5.

Bourne will pay $4 for each pound of Halloween treats surrendered in his office, in Suite 3 at 815 State Ave. in Marysville, with $2 going to the trick-or-treat-ing child, and the other $2 donated to the local Boys & Girls Clubs and YMCA.

Last year, Bourne Orthodontics collected more than 1,300 pounds of Halloween candy, allowing them to donate more than $2,600.

The donated candy itself is sent to American military

members serving overseas, local homeless shelters and humanitarian groups for trips to Africa.

Since its inception, the Bourne Orthodontics Halloween candy buy-back has donated almost $15,000 and 7,900 pounds of candy.

“We love this program, because the kids still get to have fun trick-or-treating, plus they get money and save their teeth,” Bourne said. “Then we can give back to our community and the troops. It’s a lot of fun.”

Halloween candy can contribute to tooth decay, and some candy can even damage orthodon-tic patients’ braces, so Bourne began buying back

Halloween candy to help kids avoid injury to their braces and teeth.

Bourne explained that some candies are per-missible for orthodontic patients, including plain chocolate and soft, choco-late-covered peanut butter cups. However, he cautions

patients to brush and floss thoroughly after indulging in any treats with a high sugar content.

According to Bourne, the days immediately following Halloween are usually an orthodontist’s busiest time of year for emergency calls,

so he hopes that his candy buy-back program will cut down on orthodon-tic emergencies and tooth decay, and help children, especially those wearing braces, enjoy the holiday.

Bourne Orthodontics in Marysville will accept

children’s Halloween candy during normal business hours on Nov. 5, 7, 11 and 13. There is a limit of 25 pounds per person with this offer. For more infor-mation, call 360-659-0211 or log onto www.bourne-orthodontics.com.

ARLINGTON — The National Day of Service and Remembrance proj-ect to paint a fence in the Arlington Heights neigh-borhood, whose prepara-tion work ran from Sept. 11-13, was finally com-pleted on Saturday, Oct. 5, nearly a full month after its originally scheduled com-pletion date of Sept. 14.

Anya Zolotusky and Kim Robinson, the owners of the fence, had pledged to donate $500 — the value of refur-

bishing the fence — to the Arlington and Darrington community food banks, who recruited 30 volunteers to conduct prep work on the fence from Sept. 11-13, before an inhospitable driz-zle on Saturday, Sept. 14, postponed the last leg of the project.

“I put a check in the mail [on Wednesday, Oct. 9] to the Arlington Community Food Bank, along with a note explaining that this was in honor of the church’s Day of Service project,” said Zolotusky, referring

to the volunteers from the Arlington stake of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. “Not only was it great to get the fence painted, but I genuinely enjoyed meeting all the good folks who participated in this.”

“We put in 53 man-hours of scraping, brushing and pressure-washing that wood fence,” said Dawn Dickson, one of the coordinators of the project. “We actually had a couple of nice days to wrap up our activity.”

The fence is approximate-

ly 1,200 feet long, with four boards for each 8-foot by 10-foot section, adding up to 4,800 feet of boards that were previously painted in August of 2009. Dickson and Zolotusky had doubted

that the fence would be dry enough to finish painting on Friday, Oct. 4, so the volunteers returned to the site on Oct. 5 and managed to lay down the last coat of paint within the same day.

“We felt it was a real blessing to have those few days of good weather,” Dickson said. “The nice weather [on Sunday, Oct. 6] allowed it to dry com-pletely.”

ARLINGTON — The Arlington High School boys and girls cross coun-try teams travel to South Whidbey High School on Saturday, Oct. 26, to com-pete in the Wesco League Championship meet, and will be running on a course where they’ve already had considerable success this year.

According to Arlington Cross County Head Coach Mike Shierk, the Eagles competed in the Sept. 21 South Whidbey Invite and had an outstanding day.

“We took both the JV teams and both the varsity teams,” said Shierk. “Our girls varsity, our boys JV and our girls JV all won their races, while our boys varsity finished in second place. In addition, we also won the overall combined boys and

girls varsity. So out of the five possible trophies, we brought home four of them.”

Shierk said that perfor-mance has given his kids a lot of confidence for the upcoming Wesco League meet on the same course.

“We went there and did very, very well,” Shierk said. “We are happy about it because it gives the kids a lot of confidence, and they feel they can go back to that course and do very well for the Wesco Championships.”

Shierk said the varsity boys team is led by sopho-more Nathan Beamer, who set a new PR a couple of weeks ago at the Oct. 5 Twilight Invite. Also com-peting well recently for the boys are sophomores Peiter Andrew, Matthew Taylor and Michael Barene, and senior Ben Comerford.

“On the boys’ side, one of our goals is to beat Lake

Stevens which has been a perennial State contender. They take a boys team to State almost every single year. Ever since I’ve been around, and this is my 14th year, they have always been able to get a team to qualify,” said Shierk. “And, so, our pathway to State is we have to beat Lake Stevens. That is our goal on Saturday, and the next Saturday after that, at the Bi-District meet, we are going for them again.”

On the girls variety team, Shierk said a trio of runners lead the team.

“At the recent Hole in the Wall Invite, our top five girls were led by a pack of three girls, sophomore Emma Janousek, junior Cassidy Rude and sophomore Gracie Castandeda,” said Shierk. “They are lights-out tough, and one of the reasons it is so cool is that they are all within seconds of each other.

They all run in a pack, and when you can get three girls running as a pack, who run really fast and are going to be toward the front of the race, it is just extremely tough to compete with that type of group.”

Shierk added, “We have a sophomore, Marie Gaudin, who is also consistently running well. And we have Shanelle Shirey, a junior, who just took almost 20 sec-onds of her season PR and almost broke 21 minutes. That was huge for us.”

While the boys are look-ing to beat Lake Stevens, Shierk said the girls are look-ing to beat Snohmoish.

“We really want to com-pete with Snohomish,” said Shierk. “They are a really good team and have a great coach. We want to get them.”

Shierk said that there are two ways to move on from the Wesco Championship to the Bi-District meet.

“The top eight teams from the Wesco Championship move on to the Bi-District Championship, which is Wesco and Kingco, and the top 40 individuals qual-ify,” said Shierk. “At the Bi-District, it narrows down quite a bit, with the top five teams and the top 25 individ-uals moving on to the State meet. It’s much more of an

accomplishment to get a team of kids together to qualify, so that is what we always try to shoot for.”

Shierk said he working to get his team to peak at the critical time of the season.

“Not necessarily this week, but the week after, we are going to start pulling back a bit on the amount of mile-age the kids are running, and the intensity of the workouts,” said Shierk. “We want them to peak a just the right time. We feel like we are in great shape, the kids are healthy, and we made it through the tough part of the season. The kids are confident as they prepare for the upcoming meets.”

ARLINGTON — The Highland Christian girls volleyball team hosted Grace Academy, Oct. 22, and fell to the Eagles 3-0.

“The game we played on Tuesday was a really good fight,” said Highland Christian Head Coach Hannah Gould. “We always seem to play well against Grace because they push us to play harder. Our girls fought hard, and made some really good plays, but Grace has improved so much as well, so it was equal improvement on both sides, and they were able to overcome us.”

The Oct. 22 game was not only the final game of the regular season, it was also Senior Night.

“Brooke Hernandez is one of our senior captains, and she has been an outstanding player,” said Gould. “I actually played with her when I played volleyball. In 2012, I was a senior captain and it was her first year playing volleyball. It is real-ly neat for me to see how she has

improved and become an amazing volleyball player.”

Gould also praised the team’s other senior captain, Lyndsay Crawford.

“She is brand new to the sport, just joining us to play this year,” said Gould. “She has been a leader on this team, and has played very well for us.”

Other than the two seniors, Gould said her team is relatively young and new to the sport.

“We have three or four girls who have played a little volleyball, every-one else is new,” Gould said. “It’s a very new and young team, but they have learned and improved so much just in the short amount of time they have played.”

Gould said her team is looking forward to moving on to the playoffs, which start Oct. 31.

“This is the first year we have gone to the playoffs in a while” Gould said. “It’s been a long dry spell for us, so this is going to be a huge highlight for our seniors, especially for Brooke, because she loves and cares so much about this sport.”

ARLINGTON — Oct. 14-18 marked a full week of celebration for the Arlington High School Homecoming, an annual event that’s fol-lowed a tradition for many, many years. Indeed, it’s dif-ficult to find a past graduate who knows when the festivi-ties initially began.

This year, Spirit Week included a variety of activi-ties. Monday began with P.J. Day, during which stu-dents wore pajamas to class. Students wore their favorite college sports team appar-el on Tuesday for College Day. Western Day was the focus for Wednesday, and Hawaiian Day took place on Thursday. For Color War Day on Friday, the four grade levels at AHS competed to show their school spirit by wearing the colors assigned to their classes.

For this year’s Homecoming Parade on Wednesday, Oct. 16, AHS DECA students picked the theme of “Bright Lights, Big City” for the floats. Once the theme was established, a single student team of nearly half a dozen kids from the Leadership class coordinated

the Spirit Week activities. This student team created big city themes for each of the class floats. The senior class was assigned Seattle, and included the well-known Space Needle in its imagery, while the junior class recre-ated the London Bridge for their London theme. “Paris, the City of Love” was cov-ered by the sophomore class, and the freshman class took on New York City, by featur-ing their representation of the Radio City Music Hall dancers. The officers for each class took on the coor-dination of building their respective floats under the direction of their class advi-sors, but all students were welcome to participate in the creation of the floats, as well as in the parade itself.

Adult volunteers drove their fancy polished cars with the Homecoming Court, who were dressed in their tuxes and gowns as part of the parade. The court was joined by the AHS Marching Band and Drama Club — the latter carrying signs to pro-mote their play “The Diary of Anne Frank” — as well as the AHS Air Force Junior ROTC and the trucks carry-ing the AHS football players.

Community members lined Olympic Avenue to greet the parade. AHS Secretary Dena Cave was elected Grand Marshall, and used her best hand-wave as she paraded through town.

Students and parents followed the parade up to Haller Middle School for the Pepination Assembly, where Homecoming King Josh Lorde and Queen Brenna Kamppi were named. The week wrapped up on Friday with the traditional chili feed, sponsored by the Booster Club, and the Homecoming game with Monroe. Monroe won the game, but it wasn’t due to a lack of school spirit on Arlington’s side.

Past Homecoming cel-ebrations weren’t much dif-

ferent than they are now. Ann Thomas, who serves as the Athletic Secretary at Post Middle School, grew up in Arlington, and remembers local businesses donating supplies for the floats, which took several days to create. Arlington Lumber volunteered their lumberyard for the float-building, since there wasn’t any space at the old high school. Back then, floats were judged before the parade. During halftime at the football game, the floats were paraded around the track. AHS teacher Jason Klein remembers stiff com-petition between the classes during Homecoming Week.

“There were class themes, and the hallways of the old

high school were decorated by each class to represent those themes,” said Klein, who also remembers the seniors being the winner of the weeklong competition most years.

Another past tradi-tion in Arlington was the bonfire, held following the football game. It seems to

be a fond memory of past Arlington graduates, but it was deemed unsafe in the early 1990s. Once the new high school was built, the administration decided not to move away from student-created floats, but due to the strong sense of tradition in the community, they were reinstated after one year.

ARLINGTON — Wednesday, Oct. 23, marked the end of an era for the city of Arlington and the Arlington Municipal Airport, as Arlington Airport Manager Rob Putnam was congratu-lated on his retirement from more than 32 years of service to the city, the past 21 of which have been spent at the airport.

Barbara Tolbert spoke as the executive director of the

Arlington Fly-In since 1994, as she deemed Putnam “a lifetime friend of the Fly-In,” entitled to free access for himself and his family, in recognition of his work on behalf of the Fly-In and the Arlington Airport since he became Airport Manager in 1999.

Even when she shifted back to speaking as mayor of Arlington, Tolbert praised Putnam for his fairness and thoughtfulness in tak-ing care to ensure that any course of action served the

best interests of everyone involved, from the city and the airport, to the tenant recreational and business pilots who use the airport, to the point that she laughed and joked that she wouldn’t accept his resignation.

“I’ve watched you nego-tiate incredible deals and develop an absolutely solid relationship with the FAA,” Tolbert said. “With nearly 33 years of working for the city of Arlington, no one could doubt where your heart is. You understand our city as a whole, and you’ve invested in your staff like few manag-ers I’ve known. So even after you retire, I’m asking you to stay in town, because we’ll probably be calling on your wisdom.”

Putnam himself still recalls how he started out driving a garbage truck for the city in 1981, before he was pro-moted to a parks department of one. Eventually, he found himself working in the city’s

parks, facilities, equipment and airport departments, which led to him serving as Airport Supervisor from 1992-99, before he was offi-cially promoted to Airport Manager.

Putnam has witnessed the revitalization of downtown Arlington, the develop-ment of the airport’s flight-line, and the arrival of not only hundreds more planes, but also corporate hangars. Among the highlights of Putnam’s tenure at the air-port cited by city officials were his establishment of an aggressive pavement preser-vation program, and his suc-cessful negotiations not only with a tenant to occupy and make improvements to the old Navy hangar, but also of a number of long-term land leases.

“The best part of it, though, has been all the nice people I’ve met and worked with,” Putnam said. “The challenges of it were fun too.

It was never the same job. There was always something new.”

With Putnam’s retire-ment, the airport depart-ment is being reorganized, and combined with the city’s community and economic development department, both of which will fall under the purview of Community and Economic Development

Director Paul Ellis. This reorganization is intended to reflect the fact that the air-port is the city’s largest eco-nomic developer. As such, the permit center, as well as city planning and building functions, will be relocated to the airport, to provide a central permitting location for those wishing to develop in the city of Arlington.

Putnam retires after three decades of service

LAKEWOOD — The Lakewood School District doesn’t want their grade school kids to be left out of the seasonal fun on the weekend before Halloween, which is why Lakewood Elementary, English Crossing Elementary and Cougar Creek Elementary have come together again to stage the annual HiJinx Carnival from 6-8 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 26, in the gymnasium of Lakewood High School.

David Campbell, presi-dent of the English Crossing Elementary PTA, explained that local PTAs put on this fall carnival for all the fami-lies in the Lakewood School District and the surround-ing community.

“Our main focus is to provide the students of our schools the chance to come together, in a spirit of friendship and community,

in a safe environment for kids,” Campbell said. “Since we encourage each of the kids to come in costume, we’ve arranged for a few local family photographers to capture this moment. The Lakewood High School Drama Department has also agreed to give us a great time of spooky stories throughout the night.”

These new features will complement familiar favorites such as games, bouncy houses, raffles and a cake walk, all of which are administered by PTA members and volunteers to whom Campbell expressed his appreciation.

“HiJinx is a great carnival that is completely volunteer-run,” Campbell said. “While the PTA is a main spon-sor of the event, we recruit local individuals, businesses and other groups to help out with the event, and we always encourage groups and clubs from the high

school and middle school to come by and pitch in. The football team, the cheer-leaders, Drama and Honor Society, just to name a few, help run our games, paint faces and generally support the elementary school kids.”

According to Campbell, a yearly average of 30 adult volunteers are required to set up and tear down the staging for the event, but the majority of volunteers come from high school groups.

“Those students really fill each of the booths and help the younger students have a great time,” Campbell said.

This year, Lakewood Elementary PTA President Julane Urie suggested a costume exchange, which took place at her school on Tuesday, Oct. 22, and marked the first “Give a Costume, Take a Costume” event for the Lakewood School District.

“It was a huge success,” Campbell said. “Anyone

with school-age kids prob-ably has a few boxes of cos-tumes from years past that are still in great condition, but are too small for their own kids to wear another year. For many families, these costumes are worn only once, then put into storage, so this was a great way for everyone to get the chance to try a different costume without spending any cash at all.”

Especially in light of the country’s ongoing economic troubles, Campbell acknowl-edged that a number of fami-lies in the Lakewood School District might not otherwise be able to furnish their chil-dren with Halloween cos-tumes.

“We really hope that this

gave them a chance to step forward and enjoy this last-ing memory,” Campbell said.

Looking to the HiJinx Carnival itself, Campbell reiterated that the invita-tion to this event extends beyond the boundaries of the Lakewood School District, to all grade school-aged kids. “This event isn’t about school politics, PTA grants or sports boosters, but rather, it’s just about clean safe fun for all families,” Campbell said. “In recent times, trick-or-treating has caused anxiety attacks for parents, when they think about sending their kids out door-to-door, so we strive to create a safe place for parents and kids to come and enjoy this holiday.”

Although the fall can often turn into a mad dash between various school sports and extracurricular activities, Campbell hopes the community will take the time to treat themselves to one of the largest volunteer-run events presented by local PTAs throughout the year.

“Halloween is a holiday that parents and students should try and fit into their busy schedules,” Campbell said. “By encouraging appro-priate costumes for all of our families, we hope to allow parents and their children a chance to enjoy this event and celebrate the season.”

Lakewood High School is located at 17023 11th Ave. NE in Arlington.

MARYSVILLE — Allen Creek Community Church’s Community Center now boasts a drive-thru cof-fee stand as an income-producing endeavor, with 100 percent of the profits from the stand, located in historic downtown Marysville, going to help finance socially con-scious programs.

Allen Creek Community Church has purchased the Carabinieri Bar, one of the first drive-thru coffee

stands established in Marysville, back in 1994.

“Most churches depend solely on the direct charitable contributions of their members to support their church activities, but AC3 takes the innovative approach of ‘Business as Mission,’” said Dan Hazen, executive pastor of Allen Creek Community Church. “Profits from the business are used to support community-ori-ented programs, including our food

bank, serving more than 1,000 fami-lies a month, as well as a cooperative organic farm, youth education, life skills training and more.”

A second location in the Allen Creek Community Church lobby serves as a small-scale music and art venue.

“In our town, at this time, sup-porting the arts is just as compas-sionate as operating our food bank,” Hazen said. “We hope to expand

and increase our support of local art, as well as providing secure, liv-ing-wage jobs, and leveraging profit to meet the needs of our neighbors, rather than just padding sharehold-er bank accounts.”

“The Carabinieri Bar provides an opportunity to enjoy great coffee, while at the same time contributing toward the provision of food, cloth-ing, employment training and other important services for those in need

right here in Marysville,” Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring said.

“Part of being a missional busi-ness means staying locally focused, using local vendors, local and sea-sonal ingredients, and employees from right here in our neighbor-hood,” Hazen said. More informa-tion about the Carabinieri Bar, Allen Creek Community Church and its Community Center can be found online at www.ac3.org/cc.

Oscar is a youngster, just a year old, and looking for a home where he can go for daily walks and be kept on a regular schedule to help him with housetraining. His new home should be adult only or have dog savvy children over the age of 8. He gets very nervous meeting new people, loud noises, and other dogs so his new home should be committed to taking him to experience new things so that he can be more comfortable with them.

ARLINGTON — Tanner Gaskin was honored by the city of Arlington on Monday, Oct. 21, for his Eagle Scout project, earlier in the year, to install a road and parking pads for 12

campsites at the Country Charm Conservation and Recreation Area.

City of Arlington Storm Water Manager Bill Blake presented a Certificate of Appreciation to Gaskin, a 17-year-old senior at Arlington High School

who’s also been enrolled in Running Start for the past two years at Everett Community College, for supervising an estimated 30 volunteers in perform-ing 105 man-hours of labor at the park site at E. Gilman Avenue in Arlington.

In turn, Gaskin credited Blake — as well as his own father, the rest of his family, his fellow Scouts and his other volunteers — with providing “invaluable aid” in laying down 480 tons of gravel in a roundabout with 20-foot by 20-foot parking plots.

“We hit up about the first half of the campsites there,” Gaskin said. “The middle of the roundabout, we just left as open ground. It took 15 trucks to transport all the gravel to the site, and it got spread with a track-hoe.”

When asked what it was like to supervise his own father during the con-struction efforts, Gaskin laughed, “It was great,” but Gaskin’s father described himself as both proud of his son’s leadership and gratified to be able to work on such a project without being in charge of it him-self.

According to Gaskin, he’s been in the Boy Scouts for seven years, and joined the Cub Scouts when he was 6 years old.

“It’s been a lot of work and responsibility, but it’s worth it,” Gaskin said. “I actually started meeting with the city a year ago, because I wanted to choose an Eagle Scout project that would benefit the whole community, so I went to the city and asked them, ‘So, what do you have?’”

Gaskin found it chal-lenging to coordinate the schedules of his volunteers with the availabilities of the city, especially since the entire site needed to be mowed before work could begin.

“The grass was over our heads before we started,” Gaskin said.

“This project was fund-ed through a Williams Pipeline Grant,” said Blake, who touted the importance of such grant funds during times of economic need.

“I’m sure many people in Arlington and beyond will appreciate the results of your efforts,” Arlington Mayor Barbara Tolbert told Gaskin on Oct. 21.
