Volunteers spruce up Allen Creek Elementary BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysbilleglobe.com

COMMUNITY: Work continues on new Marysville Walmart. Page 5

MARYSVILLE — Allen Creek Elementary’s annual spring cleaning was moved from the spring to the late summer this year, but in spite of the shift in schedule and the day’s early morning drizzle on Saturday, Aug. 24, a crowd of parents, students, faculty and community members descended on the campus to spruce it up in time for the start of the 2013-14 school year on Sept. 4. Allen Creek PTA President Vanessa Edwards explained that, in addition to the usual litter cleanup and washing of windows and doors, the school needed fresh lines painted for where students need to line up outside of their classrooms, as well as 10 yards of bark from the Marysville School District that needed to be laid down on the grounds. “This is our first time laying down bark,” Edwards said. “The school district has all this bark, but they only have so many hands, so they can only get to so many schools.” Also new to this year’s beautification of Allen Creek Elementary was a powerSEE CLEANING, PAGE 2

U.S. Rep. Rick Larsen, left, receives a tour of the Marysville Community Food Bank from its director, Dell Deierling, during one of its regular Friday morning food distributions on Aug. 23.

MARYSVILLE — U.S. Rep. Rick Larsen saw how local volunteers seek to meet the needs of their neighbors during a morning tour of the Marysville Community Food Bank on Friday, Aug. 23. Marysville Community Food Bank Director Dell Deierling showed off the Food Bank’s facility during one of its regular Friday morning food distributions, and was joined by Claire Lane of Within Reach and Christina Wong of Northwest Harvest in answering Larsen’s questions. “Washington is the 14th hungriest and most food-insecure state in the nation,” said Lane, the food security manager of Within Reach, a statewide nonprofit organization that helps families in need connect with food providers. “Washington and Oregon were near the top of those lists even when

the economy was doing well, but there are a number of factors that can impact that, such as the numbers of single mothers or people without advanced education in the population. If you have a state where people move around a lot, or where a high tax burden is placed on those with low incomes, you’re more likely to see food insecurity and hunger.” Lane defined “food insecurity” according to factors such as whether a family has enough money for food in a given month, or whether a family has to skip meals, which are measured by an annual survey taken by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. “Years ago, I worked with a fellow contractor at Microsoft, and while I got hired on, things went a different way for him,” Deierling said. “Years later, I see him in line here at the Food Bank and I think, ‘Holy SEE LARSEN, PAGE 19

washing of the concrete of its raised garden beds and other exterior features of the facility, which Edwards reported had grown grimy with the number of skateboarders who had used them as ramps over the summer. “We don’t want our kids to be sitting on them if they’re filthy,” said Edwards, who saw all these touch-ups as ways of celebrating the school’s 20th anniversary this year. “We’re also planting fresh flowers in the garden beds to make it a little more welcoming. We’ve had to paint the outside of the school before, but not this year. That paint job is still looking good.” Among the community members who turned out with yard work tools in hand was Larry Nyland, the former superintendent of the school district, who joined in the day’s labors as part of the Marysville Free Methodist Church, with which Allen Creek Elementary is partnered. “I’m just here from the community to help out the community by helping the school,” Nyland said. “I appreciate the work that everyone is doing here, and I’m glad to do my part.” Lesley McAuliffe has been bringing her kids to the

school’s annual cleanups for the past four years. Daughter Sara, who’s heading into third grade at Allen Creek Elementary this year, has accompanied mom all four years, while this year marks the third such cleanup for son Spencer, now entering fourth grade at Allen Creek, and daughter Madison, who’s starting seventh grade at the 10th Street Middle School. Son Austin, who’s joined the rest of the McAuliffes for two years running, is a freshman at Marysville Getchell’s International School of Communications. “It keeps them busy on a weekend and helps make sure they won’t want to mess up the garden beds,” Lesley McAuliffe said, as she and her children weeded and edged the raised earth beds. “It gives them a greater sense of investment in the school. Madison and Spencer actually did a school play about people defacing the school. Spencer saw that someone had written on the bathroom walls and said, ‘This has got to stop.’” Allen Creek Elementary Principal Janelle McFalls claimed it was no chore to roll up her sleeves with the rest of the volunteers, since “I like yard work. Of course, it had to turn out to be the only rainy day in August,” she laughed, “but plenty of people still showed up to

help. I only wish it had been drier so that we could repaint the playground as well, but a few of us will try to hit that up before the school’s open house on Thursday,” Aug. 29, from 4:30-6 p.m. McFalls praised Edwards and all the other PTA members who gave of their time and efforts to make the annual school beautification possible. “Our PTA members have lives and jobs of their own, but they go above and beyond for these kids,” McFalls said. “They stay focused on the kids — not just today, but every day.” McFalls also thanked the Marysville Free Methodist Church for donating 40 backpacks filled with school supplies to Allen Creek Elementary. Andrew Mittelstaedt attended kindergarten through fifth grade at Allen Creek, and returned for this year’s campus cleanup before returning to Bellevue College in the fall, where he’s majoring in digital video. “To be honest, it was just a relief to get out of the house, since I’ve spent so much time indoors editing videos,” laughed Mittelstaedt, whose mother was a teacher at the school when he attended classes there. “But I also wanted to give back to this school, because it was really good to me when I was here.”

Chamber hosts County Council candidates’ forum BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

TULALIP — City of Arlington Natural Resources Manager Bill Blake and Arlington City Council member Ken Klein remained complimentary and cordial to one another throughout the Snohomish County Council Candidates’ Forum hosted by the Greater Marysville Tulalip Chamber of Commerce on Friday, Aug. 23. But even as the two men both touted their deep family roots in the local community, and echoed a few of each other’s opinions, some clear contrasts emerged between Blake, the Democrat who sees government as a servant of its citizens, and Klein, the Republican who believes that too much government interference can hinder citizens’ liberties. While Blake advocated ensuring that the Growth Management Act holds developers accountable for funding new roads and new schools, Klein proposed far more sweeping reforms. “Does it work?” Klein asked. “If it hasn’t worked, then it probably needs revising. If its problems are severe enough, it needs to be revoked.” Klein argued that, rather than reducing sprawl, the

increased price tag that he pointed to the GMA for affixing to urban homes has instead motivated more citydwellers to move to rural areas and develop them. He also blamed the GMA for forcing smaller family farms out of business, while Blake invoked an example from further afield. “In Europe, you see cities and farmlands right next to each other,” Blake said. “They’ve had hundreds of years to figure this out.” On the topic of financial sustainability, Klein warned against what he sees as shortterm thinking in government budgeting, one example of which he cited was a proposed tax increase to fund restoration of the Snohomish County Courthouse. “We should be thinking ahead about how to maintain the assets we already have with the funds we already have,” Klein said. “If we’re creating a new asset, that’s another thing, but it’s irresponsible otherwise.” While Blake acknowledged the value of a business-honed efficiency mindset in government, he also recalled how he’s had to remind municipal employees who have come from the private sector that government should not be a for-profit organization. “Our job is to cover our

costs,” Blake said. “At the same time, we should be spending less than we earn.” Blake also sees fostering a diversity of regional businesses as key to the county’s financial sustainability, and even called for it to become “a full-circle economy, where we grow it, we harvest it, we process it and we serve it.” On the subject of homelessness, Blake believes the two main factors are having a job and a place to live, to which end he again referred to Europe as a model for providing widespread public transport and locating places to live, work and shop in close proximity to one another. While Klein also identified affordable housing as an essential piece of the solution to homelessness, he defended the need of the free market to determine where such housing will be located, and praised churches and community service organizations for supplying “not just a hand-out, but a hand-up” toward self-sufficiency. “Seventy-three percent of the role of county government is law and justice,” said Klein, who also deemed transportation infrastructure and public utilities among its primary priorities. “Its number-one role is to protect its citizens. Everything else is secondary. That doesn’t mean

we shouldn’t do anything else, but rather, we should look for the best ways of doing it.” “County government’s role is to serve the citizens of Snohomish County, but there are different levels of service,” Blake said. “Some are more local, like permitting and land uses, while others such as transportation really require coordination with the county. We get money for projects that other levels of government don’t get.” Blake even commended John Koster — the termlimited outgoing Republican whose seat Blake and Klein are vying for — as an advocate for state and federal monies for smaller towns and cities in Snohomish County, while Klein highlighted the differences in philosophy between himself and Blake through their responses. “He sees the opportunity of government to help people’s lives,” Klein said. “I think it’s more detrimental to the county right now, and should be removed as an impediment.” Nonetheless, when the candidates were asked to describe their opponents’ greatest attributes, Klein lauded Blake’s professionalism and commitment to customer service while working for the city of Arlington as qualities that should be

Klein voiced his opposition to the state House’s proposed 10-cents-per-gallon gas tax to fund $8 billion in transportation projects, $400 million of which would be spent in Snohomish County alone, because he believes inefficiencies in that process need to be reformed before any revenues are raised without a vote of the people. “When Arlington passed its Transportation Benefit

District, it was different from the state proposing a mandate,” Klein said. “What we did was bring it before the people and ask them, ‘Do you want to pay for this?’”

Blake confessed to not being fully familiar with the issue, but opined that “I hate to spend more money than I have to, but there’s a lot of projects to pay for here.” He also expressed support for voter-supported methods of funding such projects on a more local level, as per the Arlington TBD, and even proposed funding for alternate forms of transportation to cars, including bikes and dirigibles. “I agree with Ken that we should be spending less and having our engineers do more engineering,” Blake said.

Every forest once a food forest

olks up in Seattle are developing a “food forest” on Beacon Hill. Right there, near the heart of the city, a place where anyone can come along and pick fruit, vegetables, herbs, berries and more. The first harvests from the forest are expected this fall. It’s a great idea. Sharing food and community are two things that I care a lot about. Most of my life has been centered on food and the rights of tribes to be able to harvest their own food. For us Indian people, all of western Washington was once a food forest. The trouble is that it’s getting harder and harder for these forests, rivers and beaches to provide us with much food because they’ve been treated so poorly. For us, the U.S. v. Washington ruling that upheld our treaty fishing, hunting and gathering rights came too late. Since almost the first day that Judge George Boldt’s decision became law, we’ve had to cut back on our fishing because of declining runs. This ongoing decline is being driven by habitat loss and damage, and it isn’t getting better. Shellfish was always a dependable source of food for Indian people. But pollution from stormwater runoff, failing

septic systems and agricultural impacts threaten that vital food source. Wildlife habitat in our forests continues to shrink. More and more animals are being forced into smaller and smaller areas. We’re losing our mountain huckleberries to busloads of commercial harvesters who come in with rakes and other tools to strip the bushes clean, often causing damage to the plants and reducing future

yields. Salmon, shellfish, wildlife and huckleberries are all important, traditional and treaty-protected foods. Our ancestors knew their importance. That’s why they reserved the right to access and harvest them in treaties with the U.S. government. Projects like the edible food forest in Seattle are important. I hope they make an effort to include native forest plants that were once up on Beacon Hill before the city came along. We need to bring our rivers back to life, clean up and protect our beaches, and bring food back to the forests all around us. Billy Frank Jr. is the Chairman of the Northwest Indian Fisheries Commission.

Work continues on new Marysville Walmart BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — Its exact open date remains nebulous, but from its absence of back-to-school items and its already stocked shelves full of Halloween candy and spooky decorations, the Marysville Walmart at the intersection of Highway 9 and State Route 528 is opening sometime after the start of the new school year and before Halloween. “The construction schedules are still very liquid,” said Sonia Smith, manager of the Marysville Walmart. “We’re looking at early to mid-autumn right now. And we do still have some store employee positions open.” Of the approximately 300 employees already working at the Marysville Walmart, only 30 were transfers from other stores, while the rest were new hires who received training at the Tulalip, Arlington, Lynnwood and Mount Vernon Walmart stores.

Those interested in joining their ranks can either apply at any Walmart location, or stop by the Marysville Walmart’s hiring center in Suite E at 1289 State Ave. in Marysville. Applicants may also apply online at http:// careers.walmart.com. “You walk into an empty building that’s nothing but shelves, and it gets so full thanks to these amazing associates,” said Smith, a Washington State University graduate and 14-year Walmart employee for whom the approximately 147,000-square-foot Marysville Walmart is the second such store that she’s managed. “We had an eightday stretch of two to three trucks coming a day just to fill this place.” While the store has yet to stock any perishable goods, its frozen goods are already chilling in energy-saving cooler aisles that only light up when they sense customers approaching. Most of the Marysville Walmart’s layout will be

familiar to customers of other Walmart stores — groceries leading into pet food and then cleaning supplies, entertainment equipment leading into hardware and auto care equipment, and sporting goods leading into children’s toys — but with those departments, there are a few other new wrinkles, including a refrigerated case for fresh pet food. “We try to make it as convenient as possible for the customer,” Smith said. “All the like areas are grouped together, to give it a better shopping flow.” The Marysville Walmart also boasts a selection of Pacific Northwest-themed knickknacks, including a Bigfoot coffee mug that Smith touted as a strong seller in the region. “Folks around here are always looking for more souvenirs and local merchandise of their stomping grounds,” said Smith, who encouraged local vendors who wish to have their own merchandise considered to be sold by the Marysville Walmart, to contact her through the store’s phone number at 360-658-3658. “After Arlington, Quil Ceda, Everett and the two stores in Lynnwood, Marysville’s is the sixth Walmart store to be opened in Snohomish County.” The Halloween candy and matching decorations are part of the store’s seasonal section, which will expand during Christmastime to cover the garden sections as well, with Christmas trees

In the meantime, the garden sections are opening too late to display summer lawn furniture, so they’ll be offering everything from charcoal and barbecue sets to rakes and other equipment for fall yard work. “And right behind our party goods area and seasonal greetings cards are our arts and crafts supplies, including tools for scrapbooking and four shelves of fabric bolts that can be cut to order,” Smith said. “That custom fabric-cutting service is available at no other Walmart, area customers have been asking for it.” Another request that area Walmart stores have

been receiving more often has been more food and support for local food banks, so Dell Deierling of the Marysville Community Food Bank and Jerrie Inman of the Arlington Community Food Bank were pleased to meet for Marysville Walmart staff to discuss possible donations. “We’re happy to have the new Walmart here, especially since it’ll mean a huge boost of food for us,” Deierling said. “Walmart is one of the

largest food donors for either of our food banks,” said Inman, who pointed out that Walmart matches its employees’ donations and volunteered hours of time, much like Boeing and Bank of America. “Without them, we wouldn’t be able to do what we do.” “This is a good location for us,” Smith said. “We have great in-and-out access to both Highway 9 and SR 528, and we’re surrounded by residential neighborhoods.”

Public discusses proposed renovations for Lakewood High School BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

LAKEWOOD — The good news from the Monday, Aug. 26, public meeting at Lakewood High School was that the main high school building could be fully renovated, and new classrooms could be added

to replace its aging secondary buildings and portables, without raising the current tax rates for homeowners living within the Lakewood School District. The news that even the most positive of meeting attendees admitted would be a tough sell is that the district’s Educational

Specification Committee has recommended additional renovations for Lakewood High School that would increase local homeowners’ taxes by $14.22 per month from the 2013 rates, based on a property with $250,000 of assessed value. Ac c ord i ng to Lakewood School District Superintendent Dr. Dennis Haddock, even with site work to improve the high school campus’ traffic, parking and utilities, plus field and tennis court upgrades, a new bond would cost $59.8 million, which would be reduced to $53.4 million with state funding assistance, thereby yielding no tax increase for homeowners. However, if the bond were to include all five of the additional projects proposed by the Ed Spec Committee — additional space for new educational programs, collaborative learning areas, an auxiliary gymnasium, synthetic turf for soccer, track and field, and both competition and practice fields for softball and baseball — the price tag would shoot up to $77.8 million, which would still

be $71.4 million even with state construction assistance. When Haddock asked attendees of the Aug. 26 public meeting to work in small groups to rate those five additional projects in terms of how important those survey respondents considered them to be, many spokespersons for their groups deemed all five additional projects to be equally essential to the bond, albeit interspersed with a few voices of relative caution. “As we’re preparing our students for college careers, we need to offer them everything we can now,” Lars Espeland said. “An extra $171 a year in taxes is well worth it.” “If we don’t ask for it now, we probably won’t be able to ask for it later,” Peggy Webb said. “We need everything on this list, so we have to try to sell it to the community. We want our students to want to go to Lakewood High School.” “You’ve got to get the community to say yes,” Katy Trapp said. “If their taxes are going up by $9.99 a month or less, then that’s a cup of coffee, but if it’s nearly $15 a month, that feels too much like an extra bill.” “I worked on the last levy committee, and it passed by 58 percent,” Barbara Farrand said. “This would require a 60 percent majority to pass, and if there’s too much in this package, it won’t pass because a lot of retirees in this district won’t see what you see in

While district officials explained that Alisa Roebke’s suggestion of extending the bond repayment timeline would result in a greater cost in the long run due to interest rates, they agreed that Sally Newman’s proposed green energy measures would save money in the long run, but unfortunately add to the bond’s initial price tag. When Todd Duitsman inquired about soliciting corporate endorsements,

and Larry Delaney asked the same about partnering with the local cities or Native American tribes, Haddock didn’t rule out those ideas. Haddock promised that the Lakewood School District would solicit further public input during their ice cream socials and open houses at the English Crossing and Cougar Creek elementary schools on Thursday, Aug. 29, at Lakewood High School on Wednesday, Sept. 11, and at Lakewood Middle School on Tuesday, Sept. 17.

Community Health Center opens in Arlington BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — The Cascade Valley Hospital has had a new neighbor since Monday, Aug. 12, when the newest branch of the Community Health Center of Snohomish County opened its doors at 326 S. Stillaguamish Ave. in Arlington to serve uninsured, under-insured and under-served patients throughout the local area. Lisa Miller underscored the relative scarcity of resources for such patients by noting that many of the same patients whom she saw as the practice manager for the CHC’s Broadway clinic in Everett have met her again

as the assistant director of operations at the CHC’s new clinic in Arlington. “So many of the patients that I saw down there actually live up here, so they were having to commute from Arlington and even Darrington just to get health care,” Miller said. “We’ve received so many welcomes from this community, from the city and the fire department to the hospital and other area health care organizations. It’s not an easy thing for less-privileged patients to navigate the health care system.” The 10,458-square-foot clinic’s in-house services include primary care for all ages, behavioral health and dental for all ages, although

Miller acknowledged that it’s relying on a referral network in place of on-site specialists, and while it’s slated to host its own pharmacy, that’s not expected to arrive until January. “Certain services depend on our patient population, so for on-site specialists, we’ll probably have to wait until the visits to this clinic increase,” Miller said. “And our 403(b) status allows us to price our services at a lower cost than retail, but you have to be a patient of the Community Health Center, and not be seeing anyone else for your primary care.” Patients have access to all of the Community Health Centers of Snohomish County’s services, and can be

referred to coordinators for special types of health care. “We work with the uninsured and under-insured on a one-on-one basis,” Miller said. “Right now, we have two MDs, and we’re looking to recruit an RN.” One overlooked feature of the CHC’s Arlington branch that Miller loves is its location, directly north of the Cascade Valley Hospital on S. Stillaguamish Avenue and right next to the bus stop. “We couldn’t have asked for a better place,” Miller said. “Almost everyone knows where the hospital is, and can get here by bus.” The interior of the former Cascade Medical Center facility, which now houses the CHC’s Arlington clinic, was renovated to create a more natural and efficient flow of patient care. “We’ve got nice big exam rooms and a nice big procedure room, so our patients will be comfortable while they’re here,” Miller said. “Referrals can be an obstacle if you’re uninsured or under-insured, since you’re required to pay out of pocket if you don’t have insurance, but we will work with those patients, and are willing to take payments.” “The numbers of retired people and working poor who face these obstacles every day are continuing to extend upward,” said Dr. Steve Aguila, of the Community Health Center of Snohomish County in Arlington. “To make these medical services work, we have a staff of wonderful, dedicated people who

We’d just

hate to see so many of our qualifying patients miss out on this opportunity.” The medical clinic of the Community Health Center of Snohomish County in Arlington is open from 8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. on Mondays through Wednesdays and Fridays, and from 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. on Thursdays, and you can call 360-572-5400 to schedule appointments. Its dental clinic is open from 7 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. on Mondays through Fridays, and you call 360-572-5430 to schedule appointments.

MARYSVILLE — A home with an eye-popping backyard railroad garden, a State Avenue office building with curb appeal, and a colorful, trendsetting makeover of office space downtown are this year’s winners of the Pride of Marysville neighborhood improvement awards. The awards, now in their second year, drew a strong pool of nominees submitted by community members, including homes from last year that earned honorable mention. “We didn’t have to look far to find homes and businesses that exemplify the Pride of Marysville award program goals,” said Mayor Jon Nehring, who launched the program in 2012. “All of the nominees reflect well on our community, enhancing Marysville’s appearance, and hopefully will inspire others to do the same. Our winners took it a step further.” Here are the winners: n Best Home/Pride of the Neighborhood — Mike and Janet Elmore. Awarded to a home that is consistently well-kept, with manicured lawns and colorful landscapes, or enhanced with new paint, landscaping or other significant aesthetic improvements, the Elmore home at 11800 47th Dr. NE shares all of these traits. The railroad garden hidden behind a fenced back-

yard uses miniature trees and plants to create a scaled theme, but the two residents who nominated the Elmore home are also quick to note that the eye for detail the couple gives to their backyard carries over to the landscaping and design in their corner front yard as well. n Best Business — Girl Scouts of Western Washington/North County Outlook building. This award goes to a business that conveys the most curb appeal through attractive landscaping and building exteriors, and an overall well-kept appearance. The building at 1331 State Ave., owned by Bob Barrett of MacPherson Realty, puts parking behind the building and adds to better walkability in a section of State Avenue dominated by parking lots. n James Comeford Award (Mayor’s Choice) – Business complex at Fifth Street and State Avenue. This award, named after Marysville’s visionary town founder and original trading post operator, is presented to the most-improved home or business in the downtown or waterfront district. This year’s winner is Christian Kar, CEO of Silver Cup Coffee and The Espresso Connection, and owner of the property. Kar renovated his corner lot near Comeford Park that houses Subway,

The Espresso Connection and Tobacco Joe’s. A creative blend of exterior paint colors, and the use of timeless, classy materials combined to create a visually appealing neighbor to the park, and stimulated more business activity downtown. A selection committee reviewed the nominations earlier this summer, and included the Mayor, City Council member Michael Stevens, Parks Director Jim Ballew, Information Officer Doug Buell and citizen atlarge Cheryl Deckard. The city invited the public to nominate their favorite homes and businesses around Marysville last March, with nominees judged on visual enhancement, preservation of the character of their neighborhood, and improvements to building and landscaping. The winners will be honored publicly at the City Council meeting at 7 p.m. on Monday, Sept. 9, in the Council Chambers on the second floor of City Hall, located 1049 State Ave. They will also be presented with decorative Pride of Marysville lawn and wall markers to place at their homes or businesses, to share their accolades with passing pedestrians and drivers. “The Pride of Marysville awards are viewed as one solution toward creating a cleaner, more attractive community,” Nehring said.

Tomahawks shine during training camp BY LAUREN SALCEDO lsalcedo@arlingtontimes.com

MARYSVILLE — It is time once again for football season and training camp started for local football players on Wednesday, Aug. 21. The Tomahawks took a good look at their team and have high hopes for this season, with strong returning starters and skilled players making up for the graduated talent. “You know, it has been a really good week,” said head coach Brandon Carson of the first days of practice. “We picked up where we left off last year.” In the 2012 season, the Tommies went 9-3, ranking sixth in the state for Class 3A teams, one of only two Wesco teams to make it into the top 10. They had a good run in the postseason, making it to the state quarterfinals. M a r y s v i l l e - P i l c hu c k graduated a number of key players including several members of their offensive line — Iggy Gabov, Ismael Perez, Conner Martinis and Jory Cooper. “Offensively, obviously Jake Luton and Austin Joyner will be key

“You know, it has been a really good week. We picked up where we left off last year.” Brandon Carson, head coach Marysville-Pilchuck this year,” said Carson. Quarterback Jake Luton is in his final year with M-P, while running back Joyner, who rushed more than 2,000 yards last season and attracted a lot of attention from universities, will have two more seasons as a Tomahawk. The rest of the offensive line is being decided in the weeks before the team’s first game. “I’m very happy with what we did this spring and summer,” said Carson. “We are getting better at what we do and finding what we do best. We focus on being precise with our plays and just getting better every day.” There are a number of returning players who are stepping up during the pre-season to show what they can do to help lead

Marysville Getchell Chargers pumped for football season BY LAUREN SALCEDO lsalcedo@arlingtontimes.com

The Chargers prepare for their first game of the season at practice on Wednesday, Aug. 21.

MARYSVILLE — The Marysville Getchell Chargers are gearing up for their third varsity football season and hoping to improve on their success from the 2012 year. “We have seven total returning players,” said head coach Davis Lura. “On offense we are looking for a quarterback, running back and pretty much our entire line. On defense, we have half of secondary so it’s hard to say right now, until we have our first game.” Marysville Getchell improved drastically in 2012 from their inaugural season — going 5-5 and qualifying for one state playoff game. In 2011, the first season of varsity sports for the school, the Chargers were 0-10. “I don’t think we have been rebuilding. Right now

“We are focusing on getting better and I think they are hungry to compete right now.” Davis Lura, head coach Marysville Getchell it looks like we are going to be reloading,” said Lura. “We just have to build on what our goals were each season, and last year we won some games and went into the playoffs. We are focusing on getting better and I think they are hungry to compete right now. What we are doing during practice is we are bringing in a lot more competition situations, and they’ve been responding really well. It’s been the best start we’ve had.” They face Mariner on

Friday, Sept. 6, though it may not be the most anticipated game of the season. “I think this year, the most anticipated game for Marysville will be the Berry Bowl,” said Lura. “We will try to take each game one game at a time, but any kid from Marysville knows exactly when it’s going to be.” The Berry Bowl is the cross-town rivalry game between MG and Marysville-Pilchuck, this year set for Oct. 4. Right now, the Chargers are still figuring out where each player will land. “We’ve only had four days of practice and we still have kids come out,” said Lura. “I think even more kids will probably come out this week, so we will see.” The Chargers host Mariner at Quil Ceda Stadium on Friday, Sept. 6, at 7 p.m.

‘Ramp It Up’ connects Tribal artists, youth

TULALIP — Tulalip Tribal artists were joined by an internationally renowned Native American artist in kicking off “Ramp It Up: Skateboard Culture in Native America,” a new temporary exhibit at the Hibulb Cultural Center and Natural History Preserve, courtesy of the Smithsonian’s National Museum of the American Indian in New York. Although the exhibit opened to the general public on the morning of Saturday, Aug. 10, a select audience was welcomed to a sneak peek of “Ramp It Up” on the evening of Friday, Aug. 9, by Tessa Campbell, assistant curator of the Hibulb Cultural Center, and Mytyl Hernandez, who manages its marketing, membership and public relations. “Skateboarding has become very popular on tribal reservations, and the All Nations Skate Jam is one of the most popular skateboarding events in the world,” said Campbell, who noted that the exhibit includes 20 artifacts, 45 graphics and a host of film footage. “We’re borrowing this exhibit from the Smithsonian, but we wanted to give it a unique Tulalip flair, so we invited our Tribal artists to create a graffiti wall, within the Cultural Center, to go along with the exhibit. It took them two days of blood, sweat and tears to finish.” “Our artists were happy to step outside of their comfort zone,” said Hernandez, who identified them as Steve and James Madison, Mike and Joe Gobin, and Ty Juvinel, after she echoed Campbell’s assertion that such youth-oriented exhibits meant a great deal to Hank Gobin, former director of the Cultural Center, who passed away earlier this year. Campbell introduced Louie Gong, a Pacific Northwest Coast Salish artist whose mixed Nooksack

Indian and Chinese heritage has inspired utilitarian artwork ranging from skateboards and wooden cell phone cases to shoes, the latter of which has earned him the nickname of the “Shoe Guy” for his low-cost, custom-made, one-of-akind shoe art. “When I spoke with some Tulalip kids earlier today, they asked me, ‘Why shoes? Why skateboards?’” Gong said, as he showed off a skateboard deck he’d emblazoned with an artistic tribute to the survivalist virtues of the oft-maligned “Reservation Dog,” which lives off scraps with no owner. “As indigenous peoples, we recognize the resources of our environments. As an urban person, shoes and skateboards are part of my environment, so I use them as my canvas. I don’t like my art hanging on a wall in a gallery. It shouldn’t just be nice to look at. It should be out there, being used, sparking conversations about issues that we care about. Skate culture is a significant piece of our history, but it’s not fixed. This bridges the gap between what we want to teach our kids, and what they care about.” Tulalip artist James Madison, who was named Artist of the Year by the Arts Council of Snohomish County, compared skateboarding to basketball, one of the primary pastimes of his own generation when they were younger, as a positive and productive outlet for young people. Like Gong, he hopes his artistic contributions to skate culture can help pass on the traditional tribal teachings of his grandparents to future generations. “My grandpa would tell us the same stories, over and over and over, so many times that we’d tell him, ‘Please stop, we know this one,’ and now, my sons are saying that to me,” laughed Madison, as he recounted how he and his fellow Tulalip artists in attendance have worked together on a

number of projects intended to help keep their culture alive. “Whether it’s wood or metal or glass, we work in all sorts of different mediums, because we’re always learning and growing as Tulalip people. We’re showing that our culture is still alive, not petrified. I’m proud to know what I know, and to share it with the community in this way, so that the young people can see what we’re doing.” “Ramp it Up” will remain on view at the Hibulb Cultural Center through Oct. 13, before continuing on its 12-city national tour.

renovations will rearrange about 1,000 square feet which will be set aside to provide computer-aided creativity, collaboration, classroom, and research and development opportunities for students, entrepreneurs and businesspeople alike. These “Creative Commons” spaces will also house specialized equipment, including additional iMacs, software and audio/video editing equipment, in addition to serving as an area for instructor-led training and small group collaborative projects. In the meantime, Marysville Library Manager Eric Spencer promised that the library would remain open for some limited services. “Instead of using the word ‘closure,’ we’d like to say ‘hours of reduced services,’ because during those days, staff will be here to take care of library accounts and give people access to their holds,” Spencer said. “All of the holds will be available for people to pick up in the lobby. They can check those out, and they can also bring materials back and return them.” Spencer explained that counter service for materials pick up, returns and library card accounts customers will be conducted from the Marysville Library’s large meeting room in its front lobby from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sept. 3-5, before the library is expected to reopen for full service on Friday, Sept. 6. “We can do that from the large meeting room, but there won’t be any access to the rest of the library, or the building proper,” Spencer said. “We’re only running limited minimum staffing during that time, but we do plan to make holds available, which will mean that new holds will be available as well, and book drops, so we’ll keep people’s accounts taken care of.” Marysville Library customers who have reserved books or materials will have their holds automatically extended during this short closure.

MILITARY BRIEFS

Nichole G. Lund Navy Seaman Recruit Nichole G. Lund, daughter of Loreen K. Lund of Marysville, Wash., and Chris L. Lund, of Jacksonville, Ore., recently completed U.S. Navy basic training at Recruit Training Command, Great Lakes, Ill. During the eight-week program, Lund completed a variety of training which included classroom study and practical instruction on naval customs, first aid, firefighting, water safety and survival, and shipboard and aircraft safety. An emphasis was also placed on physical fitness. The capstone event of boot camp is “Battle Stations.” This exercise gives recruits the skills and confidence they need to succeed in the fleet. “Battle Stations” is designed to galvanize the basic warrior attributes of sacrifice, dedication, teamwork and endurance in each recruit through the practical application of basic Navy skills and the core values of Honor, Courage and Commitment. Its distinctly ‘’Navy’’ flavor was designed to take into account what it means to be a Sailor.

Vandelac is the son of Vaughn Vandelac of Everett, and Angela Savoie of Marysville. He is a 2011 graduate of Lakewood High School, Arlington.

Lund is a 2009 graduate of Everett Community College of Everett, Wash.

Jordan T. Vandelac Army Reserve Pvt. Jordan T. Vandelac has graduated from basic combat training at Fort Jackson, Columbia, S.C. During the nine weeks of training, the soldier studied the Army mission, history, tradition and core values, physical fitness, and received instruction and practice in basic combat skills, military weapons, chemical warfare and bayonet training, drill and ceremony, marching, rifle marksmanship, armed and unarmed combat, map reading, field tactics, military courtesy, military justice system, basic first aid, foot marches and field training exercises.

Gabriel D. Marshman Air Force Airman Gabriel D. Marshman graduated from basic military training at Joint Base San Antonio-Lackland, San Antonio, Texas. The airman completed an intensive, eight-week program that included training in military discipline and studies, Air Force core values, physical fitness, and basic warfare principles and skills. Airmen who complete basic training earn four credits toward an associate in applied science degree through the Community College of the Air Force. Marshman is the son of Thomas and Kary Marshman of 116th Street NE, Arlington.

Navy outreach, training set for Sept. 12 EVERETT — The U.S. Navy throughout Puget Sound makes substantial purchases of goods and services from local businesses, which can now learn the basics of selling to the Navy — what and how the Navy buys — and understand the fundamentals of marketing in any federal contracting environment.

The Workforce Development Council Board room at the Economic Alliance of Snohomish County offices, located in Suite 217 at 728 134th St. SW in Everett, will host this free-of-charge presentation by the Northwest Washington PTAC, which will be followed by an opportunity to network with Navy representatives. Lunch will not be provided, and registration is required and limited to small businesses with products or services applicable to Navy requirements.

Klein family picnic celebrates 44th year BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — The Klein family is calling all area Kleins, Kazens, Kruses, Knudsons, Otters and other families who might have married into the Kleins, so that they can all come together for the 44th annual Klein family picnic on Saturday, Sept. 14, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. at Jim and Bev Klein’s place in Marysville. “Last year, I sent out 67 invitations,” said Shelley Klein, who’s been helping to organize the event. “This year, it was 150, plus I’ve sent messages to the people who had left their email addresses in last year’s guestbook, reminding them that the Klein family picnic is coming up. There’s one family that usually only has the dad come, and maybe his wife, but this year, they’re looking to bring their whole family, including their relatives in California and Arizona.” Although the annual gathering is strictly limited

to the Klein family and its extended kin, its hundredsstrong crowds of attendees each year have necessitated admission fees, but Shelley Klein hopes the silent auction this year will balance out the attendance fees, which have been eliminated. “There will be no cost for this year’s family reunion,” Shelley Klein said. “With any luck, we’ll get enough bids and donations to cover the costs of putting on this picnic.” Because she’d received feedback that last year’s auction closed too early in the day, Klein promised that this year’s auction wouldn’t close until 1:30 p.m., providing a half-hour buffer between the end of the auction and the start of games at 2 p.m. Another new wrinkle this year will be hamburgers and hot dogs, in addition to the pot luck dishes traditionally supplied by attendees. “We’ve never done hamburgers or hot dogs before,”

Klein said. “With the pot luck, it seems like we always have more desserts than main menu items, so we asked for people to balance that out a bit more last year, and it worked out pretty well, but this year, we also bought a whole bunch of hamburgers and hot dogs, since not everyone who attends the picnic is well off.” Jim and Bev Klein’s place is located at 6101 152nd St. NE in Marysville. For more information, or to donate items for the silent auction, call Shelley Klein at 360-4352245 or 360-391-5032.

AG’s ruling raises questions about Cascade Valley’s possible affiliation BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — Cascade Valley Hospital faces some serious questions after the state Attorney General’s office issued Attorney General Bob Ferguson’s formal opinion that a public hospital district providing maternity care must also provide “substantially equivalent benefits, services or information” regarding contraception and abortion. The Attorney General’s office issued the formal opinion on Wednesday, Aug. 21, in response to a request by state Sen. Kevin Ranker, D-Orcas Island, who asked if a public hospital district violates Initiative 120 if it solely contracts with a health care provider that does not provide reproductive care services, such as contraception or abortion. This opinion impacts the Cascade Valley, Island and Skagit Valley hospitals, because those three partnered nonprofit community hospitals have been considering possible affiliations with one of four larger nonprofit health care sys-

tems — Providence/Swedish, Virginia Mason, University of Washington Medicine and PeaceHealth — two of which are Catholic. Heather Logan, assistant administrator of Cascade Valley Hospital, had reported that attendees of a July 31 community forum, conducted in Mount Vernon by the joint boards of commissioners for the three hospitals, had expressed reservations about Providence/Swedish and PeaceHealth restricting certain services according to Catholic doctrine. Cascade Valley Hospital CEO Clark Jones had previously summarized Providence/Swedish and PeaceHealth’s approaches to reproductive issues by noting that, while they will not provide elective abortions within their facilities, they do allow their physicians to make those referrals. However, in the wake of the Attorney General’s opinion, Jones acknowledged that further clarification will be needed in that area.

“I am not an attorney, nor have I consulted with our attorney about the Attorney General’s opinion issued today,” Jones said on Aug. 21. “However, it appears that, if we were to select a Catholic organization for affiliation, any issues raised by the Attorney General’s opinion will have to be addressed.” In spite of these concerns — as well as the Attorney General’s lack of clarification about how hospital districts might comply with Initiative 120, or even what exactly constitutes “substantially equivalent benefits, services or information” — Jones doesn’t believe that such complications on their own will rule out either of the two Catholic organizations as potential choices, nor does he anticipate any delays in the three hospital boards’ decision, which he expects them to make at their joint meeting on Thursday, Aug. 29, in Mount Vernon. As of Thursday, Aug. 22, Jones was on leave and unavailable for comment.
