MARYSVILLE — Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring and his challenger, Kelly Wright, argued over many of the same issues during two separate debates, as the candidates for the contested Marysville City Council races were able to introduce them-selves to the community.

At the Oct. 19 “OUR Marysville” mayoral candi-dates forum and the Oct. 21

Greater Marysville Tulalip Chamber of Commerce may-oral and City Council candi-dates forum, Wright returned repeatedly to the issues of the Marysville annexation, pro-posed overpasses across I-5 and how much the city spent on the Coca-Cola bottling plant.

While Wright did not object to the annexation itself, he took issue with how it was carried out by Nehring and his fellow City Council mem-bers, without a public vote.

“Just because you can do something doesn’t mean you should,” Wright said, after acknowledging that the Council’s actions on the annexation were legal.

Wright and Nehring like-wise disagreed about the 156th Street overcrossing, which Nehring believes can be turned into an interchange that will enhance the north Marysville area’s attractive-ness to light industrial and

MARYSVILLE — Clay Simmons was laid off in 2008, and his family has struggled to make ends meet since.

“I was working in the construction indus-try as a project engineer,” said Simmons, who’s raising three high school-aged chil-dren with his wife. “I’m trying to get back into my old career in videography, but it’s tough to transition, especially when people don’t have the money to spend on expendi-tures like video production.”

Without the Assistance League of Everett, McKenna and Dakota Simmons, both stu-dents at the Bio-Med Academy, and Dylan Simmons, who’s in his senior year at the School for the Entrepreneur at Marysville Getchell High School, would have had to go without new clothes for school this year, rather than shopping with their dad at the Marysville Fred Meyer on Oct. 18.

Assistance League of Everett, estimated that more than 800 high school-aged young people from Marysville, Arlington, Stanwood and Darrington were able to shop for clothes and other school-related

items at the Marysville Fred Meyer from 5-8 p.m. on Oct. 17-18. Each stu-dent was allowed to shop for $125 worth of school-related goods, with Fred Meyer giving them a 10 percent discount on their purchases, even before any coupons were applied.

“Fred Meyer has given the Assistance League

$6,500 in the last two years to help with our Operation School Bell purchases,” Bright said. “Before that, they gave $5,000.”

Although the Assistance League’s Operation School Bell site in Everett clothed 2,958 children last year, Rock Dorsey explained that the Teen Retail Program, which also served more than 800 area high school students last year, came about because the Operation School Bell site wasn’t seeing many teens.

“The schools have been great to work with, and the stores are very accommo-dating,” said Dorsey, chair of the Assistance League’s Teen Retail Program. “The demand is greater each year, but unless we sell more at our thrift shop, we can’t increase our budget.”

Arlington High School senior Lyubov Tsymbalyuk knows about living within a limited budget, as one of 13 kids in her family.

“I’ve never really had an all-weather jacket before,” Tsymbalyuk said as she donned the light sport jacket that she deemed her favorite purchase of the day. “I always had to

change with the seasons. I never really had new clothes, either. Most of them came pre-worn.”

Anthony Whitaker, a freshman at the School for the Entrepreneur, appreci-ated how much the Teen Retail Program has simpli-fied his family’s lives, as much as he appreciated being able to buy the styl-ish cardigan sweater that

was his favorite purchase that day.

“This helps my mom as she figures out our financial situation,” said Anthony Whitaker, who was joined by big sister and fellow School for the Entrepreneur student Analise Whitaker in shopping at Fred Meyer for school clothes.

“The smiles of these kids makes it all worthwhile,”

Bright said. “When they can wear clothes that fit them and that they like, their self-esteem goes up.”

Since opening in 1965, Operation School Bell has helped more than 63,898 students and has gone on to become “the number-one philanthropic project” of the Assistance League of Everett, according to vol-unteer Leslie McCullough.

MARYSVILLE — U.S. Rep. Jay Inslee has writ-ten about the potential for a clean energy economy in America, and on Oct. 21, the Democratic candidate for Washington state gover-nor got a firsthand look at how one local company is striving to make solar ener-gy efficient and accessible.

Silicon Energy became the state’s first solar panel manufacturer when it started production at the Arlington Airport in 2009, and when the demand for its distinctive panels neces-sitated new equipment and a higher capacity for growth than they’d expect-ed, it moved to Marysville in 2010.

Gary Shaver, president and CEO of Silicon Energy, greeted Inslee at the com-pany’s Marysville plant on Oct. 21, providing him with a guided tour that started with an explana-tion of what sets Silicon Energy’s solar panels apart from their competition.

“There’s no wires show-ing, either front or back,” Shaver told Inslee. “At the same time, they can be accessed easily,” he added, sliding back one of the black metal plates, on the sides of the bonded double-panes of glass laminate holding

the solar panels within, to reveal the wiring.

Shaver noted that Silicon Energy’s panels can be mounted on roofs, on the sides of buildings, on car ports or as standalone mod-ules, with durability enough to withstand snow or wind. He then invited Inslee to jump up and down on one of the encased panels, which Shaver estimated has withstood similar tests from approximately 2,000 people, some weighing as much as 300 pounds.

When Inslee asked for further evidence of the pan-els’ durability in the long term, Shaver reported that, out of a group of half a dozen solar companies whose products have been tested continuously by the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory since November of 2009, Silicon Energy is the only one whose mod-ules have not yet failed.

“We beat the best in the world,” Shaver said, elabo-rating on how NREL put all the companies’ panels through simulated aging, subjecting them to 85 per-cent humidity and temper-ature cycles of 85 to minus 4 degrees Celsius. “The other panels heated up and lost electrical efficiency, while our panels stayed evened out and had a negligible performance drop, even

after 60 years of simulated aging.”

Inslee approved of Silicon Energy’s policy of shopping for parts as close to home possible, which he asserted was deserving of a great-er incentive benefit. The metal work for the panel modules is made in Seattle, while the glass comes from Washington.

“What’s your take on what happened to Solyndra?” Inslee asked.

“They worked with the Department of Energy, but it was the wrong approach,” Shaver said. “They did it top-down. The government should provide incentives,

like Washington, and guid-ance, but they should force us to be innovative without strangling us.”

Shaver touted the minimal environmental impacts of Silicon Energy’s panel mod-ules, which use no heavy metals and are designed to

be long-lived to help cut down on the number of them that will need to be disposed over time.

“You can put these mod-ules into landfills without anything getting into the water supply or the soil,” Shaver said.

MARYSVILLE — Area orthodontist Dr. Jason Bourne is bringing back his Halloween candy buy-back program for the eighth year starting on Nov. 1.

This year, Bourne is pay-ing $4 for each pound of Halloween treats surren-dered to his offices, with $2 going to the child and the other $2 being donated to the local Boys & Girls Club and the YMCA.

Last year, Bourne Orthodontics collected more than 1,700 pounds of Halloween candy, allowing them to donate more than $3,400.

The donated candy is sent

to American troops serv-ing overseas, local homeless shelters and humanitarian groups for trips to Africa.

Since its inception, the Bourne Orthodontics Halloween candy buy-back has donated almost $10,000 and 5,000 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. “When we can give back to our community and the troops, it’s a lot of fun.”

Halloween candy can con-tribute to tooth decay, and some candy can even dam-age orthodontic patients’

braces. Bourne aims to aid kids avoid injury to their braces and teeth by buy-ing back their Halloween candy.

Bourne explained that some candies are permissi-ble for orthodontic patients, including plain chocolate or soft, chocolate-covered peanut butter cups, but he nonetheless cautioned that patients should brush and floss thoroughly after indulging in treats with a high sugar content.

Bourne recommends that children who wear braces avoid these foods or can-dies:

Caramel and taffy.

Hard candy.Bubblegum.Hard pretzels.Peanuts.Taco chips.Un-popped kernels of

popcorn.Parents of children who

wear braces may want to check out their children’s

Halloween candy and elimi-nate these potential “brace-busters.”

Bourne noted that the days immediately following Halloween are usually an orthodontist’s busiest time of year for emergency calls.

B oth B ourne Orthodontics offices will

accept children’s Halloween candy during normal busi-ness hours, on the following dates:

Nov. 1, 3, 7 and 9 in the Marysville office at 815 State Ave., Suite 3.

Nov. 2, 8, 10 and 14 in the Lake Stevens office at 9633 Market Pl., Suite 104.

ARLINGTON — David Christian Stout, a Level 3 sex offender, has moved into the 8600 block of 172nd Street NE in Arlington.

Stout is a 32-year-old Caucasian male who stands 6 feet tall, weighs 175 pounds, and has brown hair and blue eyes.

According to official doc-uments, Stout pled guilty in Snohomish County Superior Court on Nov. 4, 1999, to one count of child molesta-tion in the first degree, for which he was sentenced to 68 months in prison. The victims in this case were two boys, aged 7 and 10 years, whom Stout had only known for a short period of time.

Stout was spending the night at a friend’s residence where the two victims were also spending the night. The three were sleeping in the living room when Stout sex-ually assaulted both victims throughout the night.

Stout has admitted to as many as 24 victims between the ages of 2 and 10 years, both male and female. Stout met many of these victims through church activities and some of the sexual assaults may have occurred on church property.

Stout was found non-

amenable and did not par-ticipate in the sex offender treatment program while in prison. He is no longer on supervision and his only requirement is to register as a sex offender.

At this time, there is no plan to host a com-munity meeting, although mailings are being sent to Stout’s neighbors. For more information, log onto the Snohomish County Sheriff ’s Office OffenderWatch web-page on Stout, at www.icrimewatch.net/offenderde-tails.php?OfndrID=1126317&AgencyID=54487.

MARYSVILLE — You won’t see any pink fire engines, but members of the Marysville Fire District will don pink T-shirts through Oct. 26 in support of breast cancer awareness.

The International Association of Fire Fighters and the Washington State Council of Fire Fighters are both encouraging all their members to participate in the “Cares Enough to Wear

Pink” campaign, to help raise funds and awareness for all women who are bat-tling cancer.

“It is important that we as firefighters join togeth-er and help lead the way in portraying an image of hope, strength and courage to those women who worry about being alone in their battle for life,” said Marysville Fire Capt. Jason Schoonover, president of Marysville Fire

Local 3219. “Cancer affects all of us on some level or another. This is another way for us to reach out and sup-port those affected.”

Breast cancer affects more than 230,000 women and accounts for more than 39,000 deaths annually. It is the hope of the Marysville Fire District that everyone show their support by wear-ing pink in support of breast cancer awareness.

IN OUR VIEW

The Arlington Times and The Marysville Globe have been strong advocates of using tech-

nology, in conjunction with our print editions, to help us better inform the communities we serve.

Both of the award-winning news-papers have websites that are updated regularly, both have Facebook pages, all editorial staff members have Twitter accounts and both websites have apps for mobile smart phones.

And now we will be using QR Codes (see example below) to help our readers connect to local businesses and to help those local businesses get their message to the community. Businesses can now include a QR Code in their advertisements which appear in The Globe and The Times. Readers can then use their smart phones, whether it’s an iPhone, Android or Blackberry, with a free bar-code scanner app (available at the app store) to scan the QR Code. Scanning the code will allow readers to access instant information as they will be directed to a SPARQ.me page which is a mobile friendly website that can include a variety of information about that business. It can include contact information such as links to call or email the business; photos of the business or its products; coupons and discounts; directions; hours of operation and much more — instant information via smart phones to help customers make their buying decisions.

In this tight economy, community members are looking for the most current information to help them save money and local busi-nesses want to connect with their cus-tomers — and the technology being used by The Arlington Times and Marysville

Globe can help make that happen.

Huleatt for Arlington School Board

This letter is an enthusiastic endorsement of Dr. Jeff Huleatt for the Arlington School Board. During the 30-plus years I worked in public education, I have known hundreds of school board members. Jeff Huleatt is one of the very best.

Dr. Huleatt is conscientious, rarely misses a meeting, and always prepares by reading the volumes of background material carefully. He approaches every decision in a thoughtful manner and asks ques-tions that reflect a solid understand-ing of the issues. He listens carefully and is respectful of all viewpoints. He brings the prospective of a scien-tist and a businessman to our local schools.

The Arlington community is for-tunate to have a highly functioning School Board that is committed to keeping their focus on the success of our students through these difficult economic times. Jeff Huleatt is a cru-cial member of that team.

I hope you will join me in voting to re-elect Jeff Huleatt.

City must pay fair market value for property

We have received a couple inqui-ries regarding the purchase of pri-vate property by government and specifically a concern that the city of Marysville overpaid for a property acquisition.

When a public agency acquires property it is required by state law to utilize a fair market value for pur-chase. Fair market values are estab-

lished by utilizing an appraisal pro-cess. The intent of this is to protect the public, and ensure the property purchase is conducted in a fair man-ner. This protection is to ensure that government neither under or over-compensates the seller.

It has been suggested that the city of Marysville should have compen-sated based on County assessor’s val-ues, instead of utilizing fair market appraisals and in doing so, would have saved taxpayers considerable money. That would have been illegal. In addition, the city of Marysville, like most public entities tries to treat the seller fairly and equitably when pursuing a property purchase.

While government has the tools of eminent domain and condemnation available to it, we are loathe to utilize these methods, instead wanting to reach a settlement where the seller is treated fairly and receives a value supported by market appraisals. County assessor values have been historically lower than market values and in an unstable real estate market, as we are currently experiencing, are frequently out of sync with real time market conditions.

If any citizen has any questions about a specific property acquisition, please feel free to contact me.

Retain Mayor NehringI have known Jon outside of his

Mayoral capacity for years, and have always respected him as a person. I know that Jon Nehring and his family have been heavily involved in making Marysville a better community long before he held elected office. I have personally provided service in the community for years as well, through church, Boy Scouts and other activi-

ties, but have never seen a Mayor as supportive as he is, in recognizing citizens for their volunteer work.

Jon knows how to garner support from the community to get people involved in their local areas as well. You see Jon everywhere promoting Marysville, its businesses, and in support of the many great projects and organizations in our city. I have attended many City Council meet-ings, and have found that Mayor Jon’s many years of private sector business experience as well as his City Council and Mayoral experience have prov-en to be a huge asset as he leads Marysville at such a critical time. I was encouraged and proud to learn that Marysville is one of the few cit-ies that is sound financially, has plans for significant traffic infrastructure improvements, and also has a plan to attract manufacturing jobs to our area. These things can only help our city grow to be even better.

I feel using Mayor Nehring’s lead-ership and experience is the way to keep Marysville on the right track. Please join me in voting to retain Jon Nehring as Mayor.

In a recent Herald article, Kelly accurately pointed out that a new Highway 9 WalMart will hinder traffic. He also correctly stated that most Marysville residents thought the project was dead. Although the

current supporters of the current mayor mock him for this, he was spot on with his comments. Kelly feels deeply about democracy and wants to ensure we all have a say in things like annexations. I think most of us in Marysville — and most Americans — would agree. Not the cur-rent mayor, though. He says most people are happy with it because that’s what they told him after the fact. Maybe, maybe not. Either way, a vote would have been appropriate.

Finally, Kelly holds the city accountable for its pur-chase of the old Coca-Cola bottling plant. The city paid $3.75 million for the property worth much less, then decid-ed it didn’t want the property after all. Only $2.3 million has been recovered, but the city counts a tentative pur-chase option and the remain-ing property as assets to cover up the loss. Talk about fuzzy math. Once again Wright hit the nail on the head.

Change is never easy, but it is sometimes necessary. I believe Kelly Wright will bring better leadership to Marysville. Please join me in voting for Kelly Wright.

Support Rankin for City Council

I first met Jim Rankin after he had been selected to serve as our Fire Chief here in Arlington.

While visiting one day, I asked him to join our local Arlington Kiwanis Club; he enthusiastically joined our group and has been a hard working member ever since. He is currently our Vice President, and will assume the role of club president this next year. Last year, he co-chaired our committee for our participation in the Arlington Relay for Life. We ended up having 100 percent of our membership involved in the Relay. That doesn’t happen very often, but it did with Jim’s leadership. Incidentally, we raised over $4,000 for the event.

After giving more than 50 years of service to protecting our communities as a fire-fighter and Fire Chief, Jim decided to retire. His defini-tion of retirement may be a little different from most of us. He said, “Great, now I can volunteer in our com-munity more than I could when I was working.” He currently serves on the city of Arlington Civil Service Board.

Our community, like most in America, is facing a future filled with challenges like we haven’t seen for many years, if ever. Difficult choices have to be made, and com-plex problems are facing our community leaders at every turn. We need City Council members with proven leadership skills. We need Council members with the “steel” to make those deci-sions, and also have the wis-dom to make wise ones.

I remember that in my youth I had believed I had most of the answers, and that most things were black and

white, and that it should be easy to see the advantages and disadvantages to choos-ing one path over another. Come to find out over the years, it isn’t that easy. I’ve come to believe we need leaders who have as much experience as we can find. I believe we need leaders who have demonstrated over time their commitment to the well being of the community.

I know Jim Rankin is one of those leaders, and I’m going to be voting for him. I hope you will as well.

Wright is the obvious choice

I must respond to a series of comments and letters regard-ing the current appointed mayor of Marysville and his challenger, Kelly Wright.

The appointed mayor enjoys financial support from a number of individu-als who have business inter-ests before the city. One of his contributions even came immediately before the con-tributor was appointed to the Planning Commission. That’s not how I want city business done.

Kelly Wright’s support comes from those who know him not only in Marysville but also those who have worked with his in places like Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan and Yemen, Those individu-als have no reason to support Wright other than their high respect for his character and leadership.

A simple glance at the appointed mayor’s endorse-

ments shows Kelly Wright is not supported by political insiders. If you are looking for an establishment politi-cian who will keep the status quo, then by all means vote for the appointed incum-bent. If you are looking for change, someone who will conduct city business in an open, transparent manner, someone who will bring a new approach and fresh perspective, someone who is respected for his work around the world, then please vote for Kelly Wright.

To me the choice is obvi-ous.

Experience counts for Arlington City Council

There are several very important choices on the general election ballot this year that need special con-sideration. One of them is for the “at-large position” for Arlington City Council.

The candidate of choice should be Jim Rankin. Jim brings the most experience with him from a career of working with volunteer as well as paid fire department personnel and EMS staff.

Jim was a valuable leader in the development of the Emergency Preparedness Partnership plan for the Arlington School District, Cascade Valley Hospital and the city of Arlington. This is how our tax money is saved from duplicate programs.

His knowledge of how city departments often struggle with budget constraints is invaluable. This Arlington City Council position should not be a “learn-as-you-go” position. Jim is not that kind of a candidate.

Jim is the best choice and will serve the citizens of Arlington with dedication, energy and time that we all deserve from our Council members.

Please vote for Jim Rankin.

Thanks forsupporting Twilight Meet

The cross country teams at Marysville Getchell and Marysville-Pilchuck high schools want to say a huge “thank you” to the Marysville community for their sup-port of our fifth Tomahawk Twilight Meet this past Oct. 1.

Over 1,500 athletes from 54 high schools and near-ly 2,000 spectators from around the state converged on Cedarcrest Golf Course to run in an event unique to our area — a cross-country race “under the lights” in a beautiful fall setting.

Special thanks go to Cedarcrest Golf Course head pro Dave Castleberry and maintenance director Mark Harpring for allowing us to set up 25 light towers, more than 25 portable toilets, doz-ens of directional flags and cones, and to paint white

directional stripes to guide the runners. A huge thanks to Marysville School District Athletic Director Greg Erickson, who is tireless in his efforts to make this event happen. Thanks also to Jim Ballew with the Marysville Parks and Recreation office for his support, and to the great staff at Bleachers res-taurant at Cedarcrest who set up an outstanding out-door concessions table to serve the crowds. Special thanks to Grace Community Church and Marysville Free Methodist Church for allowing us to park buses and spectator vehicles on and near their properties, and to the residents of the greater Cedarcrest area for patiently enduring congested streets and bright lights on a Saturday evening.

We could not make this event happen without the student, teacher and parent volunteers who dedicate the best part of a Saturday to support our athletes. Several schools return to our meet each year and tell us that the Tomahawk Twilight Meet is the first one they schedule for their season. We accept this as a compliment to all of our supporters, and we again say thank you for all you do for our student-athletes.

Marysville students abridge the works of William Shakespeare in whirlwind comic play

MARYSVILLE — The Marysville-Pilchuck High School POC Drama Club will be condensing some classics in November.

“The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged)” will kick off at 7:30 p.m. in the M-PHS audi-torium on Nov. 3, 4 and 5, as well as Nov. 10, 11 and 12.

Director Roy Klementsen explained that the play’s cast of nine students — Madison Pickard, Kristen George, Zach Wells, Carly Wilson, Mikko Juan, Anna Mudd, Kiera Sorenson, Sage Fairbanks and Casandra Gramstad — will perform all of Shakespeare’s plays in shortened form, for a total running time of less than two hours.

“Some highlights include a ‘Romeo and Juliet’ parody, ‘Titus Andronicus’ as a cooking show, ‘Othello’ as a rap, a perfectly Scottish ‘Macbeth’ and at least three versions of ‘Hamlet,’” Klementsen said. “The cast play themselves as Shakespearian actors, and audience participation is a certainty.”

Klementsen promised that the comic farce would make for six memorable nights of theater.

“Even if you’ve never read a Shakespearian play, you’ll delight in the mayhem,” Klementsen said.

Admission will be $6 for adults and students without ASB, and $5 for students with ASB and senior citizens.

Online survey to gauge Centennial Trail uses by community

ARLINGTON — With the recent completion of Centennial Trail’s 1.2-mile gap between 172nd and 152nd streets along 67th Avenue NE, the Snohomish County Parks Department is now seeking input on its trail plan through an online survey.

“This short survey is an important tool for learning about how people use the trails in Snohomish County,” said Tom Teigen, parks director for the county. “The information gathered by the survey will help the Parks Department plan future improvements and develop other funding sources for future trail connections to other parts of the community.”

The goals of the survey are to develop a trail-user pro-file, look for ways to improve safety, discover specific ways

people use the trail and determine how Centennial Trail benefits the communities it serves.

The link to the online trail user survey is www.survey-monkey.com/s/P8QNVYY and will be available through the end of December. Community members and com-munity organizations that use the Centennial, Interurban and other trails in Snohomish County are encouraged to respond.

Charges dismissed against suspect in Marysville stolen dog case

MARYSVILLE — Last week, all criminal charges against Susan Kush were formally dropped in Marysville Municipal Court.

Kush was originally charged with theft in the third degree, criminal trespass in the second degree and animal cruelty in the second degree as a result of the theft of Takoda, a Siberian husky, from its yard in Marysville on Sept. 24 of this year.

“Following the original arrest, investigators obtained additional information from Ms. Kush and other individ-uals that led us to believe that Ms. Kush was not respon-sible for the theft of Takoda,” Marysville Police Cmdr. Robb Lamoureux said. “All charges were dropped and we are continuing to investigate the case.”

MARYSVILLE — Mayor Jon Nehring has announced Goldie Landis and Jeanne Wilson are the community Volunteers of the Month for September for the hours of friendly service they provide visitors at the Ken Baxter Community Center.

“Goldie and Jean have truly have been great ambassadors to the cen-ter’s patrons,” Mayor Jon Nehring said at the Oct. 10 City Council meeting where the two were hon-ored. “This dynamic duo helps keep the center vital and available to seniors and all generations in our com-munity.”

Since they began giving their time in 2009, Landis and Wilson have volun-teered a combined average

of 60-75 hours a month, not counting the time they spend just to drop by and see friends.

Their nominators, Recreation Coordinator Maryke Burgess and Program Clerk Jane Shafer, said Landis and Wilson’s volunteer styles mesh well, with each one bring-ing something special and unique to the center’s many services and activities.

Landis is a take charge, “nuts and bolts” volunteer willing to keep things run-ning smoothly, traits she developed after a working life that included stints as a Design Engineer under contract with the Navy, and an apartment manager who brought a “human touch” to the supervising, mainte-

nance and finance side of the job,

Landis took over the Thursday front desk shift in 2009 after a much-beloved volunteer, Mickey Shroyer, passed away unexpectedly. Landis is adored by her Thursday morning patrons, often receiving dinner invi-tations from them, Nehring said. Away from the center, Landis swims regularly at the YMCA, enjoys day trips and spending time with family and friends, and she is a talented sketch artist.

Jean Wilson asked about volunteering one day at a Mariners game on a Parks and Recreation outing, and she has been with the center ever since, said Nehring.

Wilson is no stranger to helping her communi-

ty. As a cook, she served thousands of children through the Marysville School District lunch pro-gram until her retirement. Wilson jokes that some-times she sees her “lunch kids” come by the center looking for information for their parents or coming in to announce their own retirement.

Wilson has three chil-dren that she raised in Marysville. Among her interests, Wilson enjoys trips to Peoria, Ariz. to cheer on the Mariners dur-ing cactus league spring training camp. She has a great fitness regimen that includes walking at least a mile a day and attending Zumba Gold twice a week.

Both ladies volunteer for

other Parks and Recreation activities including the craft and art shows and as

coat check ladies for the Father-Daughter Valentine Dances.

BY JAKE [email protected]

MARYSVILLE — Marysville-Pilchuck hosted rival Arlington on Oct. 20 in a game that both teams needed to win if either’s District Tournament dreams were to remain intact.

M-P fought hard with speed and vigor but fell to the Eagles, 2-1.

Arlington took advantage in the first half with a goal each from senior forward Dana Canaria and junior midfielder Margan Busby to break the game open.

The Tomahawks retali-ated with senior defender Courtney Coombs’ 70th-minute goal, but they could not close the gap, even

with the barrage of corner kicks into Arlington’s box in the waning minutes of the game.

“We threw everything we could at them,” Tomahawk coach Paul Bartley said. “In the second half, our keeper stood at midfield and every-one else attacked the box.”

Bartley said the result matches the teams’ relative conditions.

“We’ve had a lot of inju-ries, so we had people playing positions that they usually don’t play,” Bartley said. “It was a pretty even game — it comes down to what personnel you’ve got at any given time. Arlington caught us flat twice and we couldn’t answer in the first.”

The Tomahawks were

certainly not without chances to tie the game or win.

“At end of game we had five or six corners, but we couldn’t put the ball in,” Bartley said. “As long as they gave me their best effort, it doesn’t matter what the result is — I want them to play hard and go have fun.”

The match was a reunion of sorts for Bartley, as he got to coach against his niece, forward Kaylee Bartley.

“She’s the only freshman I know of that they’ve put on varsity,” Bartley said. “This might be the last year we play this Arlington team because we might go 3-A, because of the num-ber of kids we share with Marysville Getchell.”

Arlington tops M-P soccer 2-1


MARYSVILLE — Marysville-Pilchuck’s swim team has only two seniors, while Marysville Getchell’s oldest swimmers are just sophomores. Both teams had a single objective when they hosted Wesco 3-A opponent Shorecrest as a combo team in Marysville on Oct. 18 — get faster.

And did they ever, as four different Marysville swim-mers took first place in indi-vidual events and five reg-istered district tournament-qualifying individual perfor-mances.

M-P’s A-squad of Melody Coleman, Rosemary Mohr, Karoline Schaufler and Madison Pfeil finished sec-ond at 2:14.11 in the 200-yard medley relay to lead the four Marysville teams that finished in the event’s top six. Getchell’s A squad took fourth, followed by M-P’s B- and C-squads in fifth and sixth.

Marysville coach Jaci LeGore Hodgins praised Getchell sophomore Jordan Kercheval’s 2:34.21 perfor-mance in the 200-meter free-style.

“Every week Jordan swims that event and every week she gets faster,” LeGore Hodgins said. “She consistently keeps dropping time in the 200 and 400 freestyle. She’ll swim the

200-freestyle and the 100-fly at Districts.”

Mohr followed her team’s win by qualifying for the 4-A District Tournament with a time of 2:28.59 in the 200-yard freestyle.

“Rosemary’s been working so hard, and for her to qualify for Districts in the 200-free and the 100-fly speaks vol-umes,” LeGore Hodgins said.

“She definitely had two of her best swims in this meet.”

Coleman won the 200-yard individual medley and made 3-A Districts with a total time of 2:21.43, as did Getchell’s Rachel Hartmeyer in second place at 2:22.83.

Schaufler won the 50-yard freestyle and made 3-A Districts at 28.15. She made 4-A Districts in the 100-yard

fly with a first-place time of 1:04.04.

Mohr also qualified for 4-A, finishing third in the 100-fly at 1:15.00.

Getchell’s Lia Mullen-Gaffney split first place with Shorecrest’s Brittney Hahn in the 100-yard freestyle at 1:05.30.

Hartmeyer won the 500-yard freestyle and qualified

for 3-A Districts with a total time of 5:33.83.

Coleman won the 100-yard backstroke and qualified for 4-A Districts at 1:05.62. Mullen-Gaffney qualified for 3-A and took third at 1:15.33 in her first-ever backstroke race.

M-P’s A team finished the meet by taking first place in the 400-yard freestyle relay

at 4:24.35.“The cool thing about

speed sports like swim-ming and track is that first place is good, but time is the greatest victory if you know you’re getting faster,” LeGore Hodgins said. “We as coaches are so happy to see these kids starting to groove — when it happens, it’s a great reward for everybody.”

STANWOOD — Marysville Pilchuck High School’s Corey Coombs and Jared Randall entered the Wesco 4-A North Divisional Tennis Tournament on Oct. 18 as the lone Tomahawks in the event, but made the most of their opportunities as Randall went deep into the consolation bracket and Coombs was valiant, fall-ing only to Stanwood power Gergo Muller in the final.

Randall fell on day 1 but returned to blank

Arlington’s Peter Forster in his first consolation match, 6-0, 6-0. Randall fought to the bitter end against Lake Stevens’ Alex Thompson in his next match, falling 6-2, 3-6, 6-4 in the tiebreaker set.

“Jared had a good tour-nament,” Tomahawk tennis coach Randy Davis said. “He lost a tough three-set match in the consolation round, but his effort was outstanding. He had a good year and I’m happy I was able to coach him for at least one season.”

Coombs engaged in a

battle of wills with Monroe’s Howard Chen for three hours and three minutes, coming from behind to win a tie-breaker 6-4, 1-6, 7-5 to reach the final against Müller, who had not yet yielded a set. Coombs fell to Müller 6-0, 6-3.

“Corey played some of his best tennis in the first set (of the final) while losing 0-6,” Davis said. “It sounds funny, but Gergo is a great player and Corey was strik-ing the ball extremely well — he really didn’t make many mistakes.”

manufacturing businesses, while Wright dis-missed this as an unlikely outcome that has raised taxes within the Local Improvement District.

“It’s a public-private partnership,” Nehring said of the LID. “The property owners came to us.”

By contrast, Wright proposed a clover-leaf interchange at the intersection of Fourth Street and I-5, which Nehring asserted would wipe out the surrounding businesses. When Nehring offered his proposal for adding one lane on each side of the underpass that already connects Fourth Street to I-5, Wright claimed that area businesses are already being wiped out by the two existing nearby Walmart stores — one in Tulalip and the other in Smokey Point — as well as the third that’s set to be built in east Marysville.

“All we’re doing is making it easier for peo-ple to shop somewhere else,” Wright said.

The Coke bottling plant became the subject of an especially extended exchange between Wright and Nehring on Oct. 19. Nehring explained that the city bought the property for $3.7 million and sold the building on site for $2.3 million, with property still left over. Wright countered by contending that the city paid more than the market value for the prop-erty and still stands little chance of selling the remaining property for its market value, which would make it a net loss.

“We would not accept less than breaking even,” Nehring said. “That building is back in the business tax rolls.”

Perhaps the most controversial remarks during either of the two candidates forums came on Oct. 19 from Jeri-Lynn Shumate, a former coworker of Nehring’s in the private sector, who accused him of unethical deal-ings as a salesperson for Idearc. According to Nehring, he was fighting the unethical practices of his former employers, an account which was seconded by another of Nehring’s

former coworkers, Karla Thompson. Gary Wright finally called for the forum to return to hearing from the candidates themselves.

On Oct. 21, Business Before Hours attendees also heard from the candidates for Marysville City Council positions 5 and 6, neither of which have incumbents running.

For Position 5, Roy Toyer touted his 30 years of history in Marysville, with experi-ences in economic development and a vested interest in preserving the city’s quality of life by bringing jobs to the area and supporting its police and fire services.

“We have to prioritize our budget, in what we spend and what we cut,” Toyer said. “It’s important that we live in a community that feels safe.”

Scott Allen, Toyer’s opponent, recalled how he first came to Marysville from Silvana in 1966 and graduated from Marysville High School, and while he spent a number of years away, he marked his return to town by joining the Kiwanis and Masons.

“My family taught me that volunteerism is number-one,” said Allen, who echoed Toyer’s calls to bring manufacturing jobs to town and to properly fund its police force. “This is my home and I like serving it.”

For Position 6, Steve Muller cited not only the number of endorsements he’s received, but also the list of positions he’s held with the city and in the community, from his time on the Planning Commission to his involvement in the school bond oversight committee.

“We got a new high school, under budget and on time,” Muller said. “I like Roger,” he added, referring to his opponent, Roger Hoen, “but I’ve dedicated my life to this com-munity.”

Hoen pointed to his own endorsement, from the Daily Herald, as well as his 30 years as a food and beverage contractor as evidence of his management-level leadership skills.

“I handled millions of dollars,” said Hoen, who suggested a process of rotating reviews to track the progress of city departments and effect greater efficiency in the city’s operations.

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

From 4-5 p.m. that Monday, participating mer-chants 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 toddlers 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.”

The Marysville Rotary’s “Pumpkins for Literacy” pumpkin patch, at the Plant Farm at Smokey Point, will run through Sunday, Oct, 30, one day before Halloween, to give local

families a chance to pick up their choice of jack-o’-lanterns. Their pumpkin patch is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily through Oct. 30, with pumpkins priced by size. Field trips to the Plant Farm at Smokey Point can be scheduled through Whidbey Island Bank by calling 360-657-3100. The Plant Farm is coated 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 for-mer Biringer Farm Pumpkin Patch with this year’s new Black Crow Pumpkin Patch, located at 2431 Highway 530 in Arlington. Their pump-kin patch is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily through the month of October. Visitors can bring family and friends to picnic in the old covered wagon, while kids can enjoy a hay bale maze, a slide and a skeleton graveyard. A trolley will take visitors to the patch’s

“you-pick” pumpkins and “you-dig” carrots, as well as its decorative gourds, corn stalks, local honey, fresh apple cider, honey crisp apples and kettle corn on the weekends. Weekday tours can be arranged by appointment by calling 360-435-5616.

Foster’s Produce and Corn Maze, located at 5818 Highway 530 NE in Arlington, and Strotz’s Country Feed, located at 21713 27th Ave. NE in

Arlington, are also welcom-ing visitors through Oct. 31. Foster’s Produce and Corn Maze, with its giant pump-kin patch, will be open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily, while Strotz’s Country Feed, with its “you-pick” pumpkins, will be open from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Mondays through Saturdays, and from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sundays. For more information, log onto www.fosterscornmaze.com or www.strotzscountryfeed.com.

ARLINGTON — A full day of events is scheduled in downtown Arlington the Saturday before Halloween.

DABA is also sponsoring trick-or-treating along Olympic Avenue, at participating businesses, that Saturday from noon to 1 p.m. At the same time, Lifeway Foursquare Church is hosting “Trick or Trunk” in the Arlington City Hall parking lot. A costume contest will follow at Legion Park at 1 p.m., with prizes provided by the Arlington Arts Council.

Special guests “The Pirates of Treasure Island” invite you to visit their pirate ship that same day near Legion Park. The pirates will be judging the costume contest and will also be hosting a benefit with the Arlington Kiwanis Club for Kids’ Kloset and the Arlington Food Bank. Please help by bring-ing a pair of new children’s shoes and food items for the food bank. The pirates will be available for visits from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

The “Great Pumpkin Roll” is making another comeback, with Lifeway Foursquare Church sponsoring the event. Bring your pumpkin and register at the top of First Street Hill at 1:30 p.m. The roll starts at 2 p.m. and all ages are welcome.

New this year is the Arlington “Zombie Walk.” Zombies will meet up at the parking lot near Julie’s Styling, located at 413 N. Olympic Ave. Zombies can pay $5 to participate in the walk. Artscape Photography will be setting up a temporary photo studio in the Petite Sweet Bakery and, for a $5 donation towards the school art fund, will take digital photos of any zombies and trick-or-treaters who wish to be documented. At 3 p.m., the zombies will travel south on Olympic Avenue and congregate at Legion Park. Once

the shamble reaches its conclu-sion at Legion Park, there will be a judging for the best zombie. The winner will receive a complimen-tary “Brain Bauble” crown built to their specifications from Fogdog Gallery. For more information, log onto www.fogdoggallery.com.

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

ARLINGTON — How much history does the Loyal Heights Community Club have?

Julia Lien celebrated her 100th birthday on March 11 of this year, and even she doesn’t have the most seniority within the group’s

membership.“I joined in 1949,” said

Lien of the sewing club, which was started in 1936. “It was just a friendly group of people to sit with once in a while.”

During her time with the club, Lien estimated that she’s sewn thousands of quilts, as well as assorted

pillowcases, but on the club’s 75th anniversary cel-ebration, what she remem-bered most was the friends she’d made and the lunches they’d shared.

The Loyal Heights Community Club’s 75th anniversary on Oct. 15 coincided with its fund-raising bazaar for this year, during which the works of Lien and other sewers were sold to help keep the 106-year-old Loyal Heights Hall in a state of decent repair. The club originally met in individual mem-bers’ homes until 1939, after they’d purchased the building from what was the Arlington School District at the time. Sharon Krogen explained that the hall has

already received mon-ies from the Stillaguamish Tribe of Indians, which they used to renovate the roof and expand the bath-room to make it wheel-chair-accessible. Male asso-ciates of the club’s members have also built a wheelchair ramp for its entrance.

“The school closed down in 1924, and it reverted back to a community hall,” Krogen said. “Our Sons of Norway Lodge met there for many years until it dis-banded. Since then, it’s been used for funeral luncheons, weddings, anniversaries, family parties and commu-nity meetings. It’s so lovely that people are amazed at how nice it looks inside.”

While Krogen recalls

her husband’s family hold-ing a family reunion of 350 in the hall in 1972, Betty Espe Williams’ memories and family ties to the hall and club run even deep-er. Betty’s mother-in-law, Edith Williams, was presi-dent of the sewing club for many years, while Betty’s mother, Sylvia Espe, has become its sole surviving charter member. Sylvia was unable to attend the anni-versary celebration.

“The meetings didn’t always go smoothly, but somehow, when the day was over, everyone went home satisfied with the results,” Betty Espe Williams said. “Edith lived until the age of 103. She was a wonder-ful cake decorator and cro-cheted hundreds of baby clothes.”

While the club’s 19 mem-bers take pride in their sense of community and preservation of local his-

tory, they wouldn’t mind some young new mem-bers. At the age of 68, Patti Wright is one of the club’s younger members, which is why she’s taken it upon herself to help spruce the place up. The hall could still use funds and volun-teers to replace its heating system, which currently runs on stove oil, which Club Treasurer Barbara Wood described as “a very costly item for our annual budget.”

To rent the hall or for more information, call Wood at 360-435-2998 or Wright at 360-435-8791. The Loyal Heights Community Club is locat-ed at 4406 269th Pl. NE in Arlington. The rental fees are a $150 daily rental rate and a refundable damage deposit rate of $100 per event, which is refundable upon cleaning up the hall up after your event.

MARYSVILLE — Michael Thorn opened Marysville Tobacco Joes two months ago with an eye toward helping his custom-ers cut down on the amount of their money that literally goes up in smoke.

“We all know the price of purchasing smokes is through the roof,” said Thorn, the owner of Tobacco Joes on the corner of State Avenue and Fifth Street. “You can save your money by rolling your own smokes, using our roll-your-own filling station.”

According to Thorn, cus-tomers at Tobacco Joes can save as much as 50 percent on their cigarettes through the filling station machine, through which they can

roll 200 cigarettes within 10 minutes.

“We offer high-quality, 100 percent U.S.-grown tobacco with no additives or fire safety paper,” Thorn said. “The customer sim-ply purchases their tobacco of choice and the kind of tubes they want, and then rents the roll-your-own machine.”

Thorn has lived locally for more than 35 years and pledged that customers who walk into Tobacco Joes will be greeted by friendly employees ready to help them learn how to roll their own cigarettes. The Tobacco Joes location at 450 State Ave. and 1508 Fifth St. was recently remodeled and designed specifically for this business.

“From start to finish,

the whole process takes no more than 15 minutes,” said Dennis Stanley, manager of the Marysville Tobacco Joes. “Many people notice the lack of chemicals right off the bat. I’ve heard from several folks who say they like the taste better, and that it feels better going down. We’re already getting a lot of repeat customers already, and we’re still growing through word of mouth.”

Customers can either call ahead to reserve an appoint-ment to use the machine, at 360-925-6548, or simply walk in.

Marysville Tobacco Joes is open Sundays and Mondays from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., and Tuesdays through Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.

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
