Arlington’s Little Free Libraries Love of reading inspires Al Lehman to build free book exchanges

ARLINGTON — The Arlington Times has served the local community for more than 120 years, and this week it’s returning to its roots. The Haller City Times originally published on Saturdays, and even after it became The Arlington Times it maintained its Saturday publication date until 1916 when it moved to Thursdays. The Arlington Times continued to publish on Thursdays through the mid-1970s when it shifted to the Wednesday publication date that it’s maintained since, until it debuted its return to Saturday distribution on Oct. 5. “We believe the Saturday distribution is more advantageous to our readers, specifically because it gives them more time to spend in our pages over the weekend reading our hyper-local news stories,” said Paul Brown, publisher of The Arlington Times. “It also allows us to support more advertisers with sales that are breaking that weekend. Our readers will receive more timely information, not only on those weekends’ sales, but also in our news stories.” Brown envisions The Arlington Times as provid-

would be a good thing for the neighborhood,” he said. Little Free Libraries began in 2009 when a Wisconsin man named Todd Bol built a model of a schoolhouse as a tribute to his mother, a teach-

ARLINGTON — Those who drive past the Windermere Real Estate office in downtown Arlington may have noticed what looks like a smaller version of the building on a post near the street. It is not a tiny real estate agency, but a Little Free Library. Al Lehman, who works at Windermere, built a log-cabin inspired Little Free Library at his home in Arlington Heights. He also pitched the idea to his real estate broker who funded the addition of a library at their offices on Burke Avenue in Arlington. “I really love reading and when I heard about Little Free Libraries, I thought it

ing recaps of the weeks leading up to each Saturday issue, as well as snapshots of what they can expect in the weeks ahead. He noted that this decision was not arrived at lightly, as a number of options were explored, over the course of several months, with an eye toward what each option would mean for the community. “The feedback we’ve gotten so far has been positive,” said Brown. “The people we’ve heard from have been very accepting, and in many cases enthusiastic about the Saturday publication schedule.” Brown advised advertisers to keep in mind that their deadline for each week’s issue will be 2:45 p.m. on Wednesday. “We sincerely hope the community finds that sitting back, relaxing with a cup of coffee and reading The Arlington Times over the weekend is a pleasurable experience,” Brown said.

city has made to try and stay in the black, Johnson added that the city still only has approximately 15 days cash on hand and a reserve fund balance of 2 percent, as opposed to its required 8 percent. “It’s not just one year that we’re looking at trouble, but multiple years to come,” Johnson said. “Planning multiple years down the line is the only way we can do this.” While the sales tax revenues for the past three months have shown a slightly upward trend, the city is still facing a deficit of $728,000 for 2014. Even if that trend continues, and the city made adjustments including the elimination of all contributions to the equipment replacement fund, which covers vehicles and equipment for all the city’s departments, that deficit would be $313,208 in 2014, and would still be at $302,401 in 2018, after

peaking at $417,802 in 2016. Those numbers remain the same if one assumes a bond for public safety equipment. “The budget deficit problem wouldn’t go away with a bond,” Johnson said. “We even considered raising the utility tax by the maximum allowable 3 percent, but that only solves the problem in the short term.” Arlington’s property tax rate is $1.42 per $1,000 of assessed valuation, the second-lowest of any city in Snohomish County, with only Snohomish itself lower, at $1.128, while Marysville is the third-highest, at $2.906. Since Arlington could be levying a maximum of $3.10, this puts Arlington at 45.8 percent of its maximum levy rate, the lowest percentage of any city in Snohomish County. “We’re in the cellar compared to Marysville,” Johnson said. “I know we’ve historically taken pride in our low property tax rates, but it’s caught up with us.” Johnson then introduced “Revenue Option 1,” which would not increase util-

ity taxes, but which would adjust the property tax by 50 cents per assessed valuation — combining the public safety equipment and technology bond with the property tax adjustment — with the aims of preserving existing public services, fostering the city’s ability to grow its reserves and balancing the general fund for 10 years. Indeed, according to the budget projections presented, Option 1 would yield a budget deficit of zero in 2014, and keep the numbers in the black from a surplus of $14,290 in 2014 to that of $161,331 in 2021. “We would address the levy lid limit by taking it to the voters,” said Johnson, who showed that this would put Arlington’s property tax rate at $1.88 per $1,000 of assessed valuation, which is only 2 cents above the county average of $1.86. “For the average home value of $173,800 in Arlington, that amounts to an increase of $7.25 per month.” “I’ve never supported raising taxes unless it’s absolutely necessary,” Arlington City

pass Option 1?” “Then some city services are simply going to have to go away,” Johnson said. “It’s counterproductive to economic development to reduce the city’s quality of life,” said Paul Ellis, community and economic development director for the city of Arlington. “People do come here for our quality of life. That helps create an employment base of family-wage jobs.” The Arlington City Council has set a date of March 3, 2014, to pass a resolution which would allow Arlington voters to approve Revenue Option 1 by April 22. In the meantime, a public hearing on property taxes is set for Nov. 14, in time for an adoption date of Nov. 18, while the public hearing on the city budget is tentatively scheduled for Nov. 18, in time for an adoption of the budget on Dec. 2.

Sherwood joins sales team of Times, Globe

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — Scott Sherwood comes to The Marysville Globe and The Arlington Times with decades of experience not only in sales, but also in the local area. “Both of my parents were in sales when I was growing up,” said Sherwood, the new outside salesperson for The Marysville Globe and The Arlington Times, who will be working alongside Terrie McClay. “Between that and the sales campaigns I did as

a kid, from Boy Scouts to school fundraisers, I feel like I’ve been selling all my life.” A desk job at Microsoft impressed upon Sherwood that “I like dealing with people better than computers,” and a stint as a Farmers Insurance agent gave him the face-to-face contact with customers that he’d been craving. His experience in GTE Yellow Pages’ Superpages.com likewise gave him experience with advertising and marketing on the web, and the past 20 years have familiarized him with life in Marysville.

“We moved here in 1993 and all three of my kids have graduated from Marysville schools,” Sherwood said. “Our two girls work at the Everett Clinic, and Junior is an accountant in Bellingham. As I’ve watched this community grow, I’ve gotten a good feel for the types of goods and services that those who are moving in are look-

ing for, and the Globe and Times offer access to a wide array of those. We have the background, the skills and the insights to help you reach potential customers.” Over the years, Sherwood has been involved in a host of community service projects, from collection drives for the Marysville Community Food Bank to this year’s

recent volunteer work on the Doleshel Tree Farm Park. He counts city of Marysville Parks & Recreation Director Jim Ballew and Parks Maintenance Manager Mike Robinson among his friends, and his work with local youths has included coaching baseball. “I’d encourage everyone to get actively involved in

their community, to buy local whenever possible, and to enjoy all that their cities have to offer,” Sherwood said. “I have years of experience and creativity to offer in sales, to assist our clients in designing ads, and in coming up with the layout and the language that personalizes their message, and makes sure it’s understood.”

What are we afraid of?

ll in all, we Americans are a pretty courageous lot. Our history is full of stories exemplifying hard work, standing up for what we believe in, and looking danger in the eye without flinching. We come together in times of tragedy and are literally willing to give our lives for the ideals of freedom and justice. But there is one thing that we seem disproportionately afraid of, much like the mighty elephant’s fear of the tiny mouse. It is a fear that is deeply embedded in our culture, and I suspect it drives much of the political conflict we see happening across our nation today. It is the fear — often experienced as anger or gut-level aversion — of someone getting something that they don’t deserve. Where does this intense emotional reaction come from? Maybe it’s a biologically based obsession with fairness to guard against the possibility of getting cheated out of our share of the pie? Or maybe it’s a natural byproduct of our culture’s hyper individualism? Whatever its source, it is this underlying fear that often creates gridlock in congress and paralyzes our effort to solve problems such as poverty, hunger, homelessness, and mental illness. Always lurking in the background of these discussions is the suggestion that we human beings are a real conniving bunch just waiting for any chance to take advantage of each other’s kindness. In the end, we tend to err on the side of caution, and critical human needs go unmet. So what if someone does wind up getting something they don’t deserve? Is that really such a catastrophe? There is a story in the Christian tradition where a lawyer asks Jesus what he must

GUEST OPINION JIM STRICKLAND do to inherit eternal life. Jesus’ reply includes the challenge to “love your neighbor as yourself.” The lawyer then tries to cloud the issue by asking, “But who is my neighbor?” and Jesus responds with the story of the Good Samaritan. I won’t retell the story here, but I encourage you to look it up and read it for yourself. The implication is that we help people because they need it, not because they deserve it. There is a word for someone who reaches out to help others who may not deserve it. No, I’m not thinking of “gullible” or “naïve” or “enabling” ... I’m thinking of the word “hero.” Our culture reveres heroes and produces more than our share of them. But our heroes are usually individuals. We have a much harder time thinking of institutions and systems as having “heroic” capacity. Churches are always doing this kind of work, but isn’t it possible that we can also develop heroic schools? Heroic businesses? Even heroic government? For this to happen, we have to get past our constant worrying that someone, somewhere, may get something they don’t deserve. Perhaps the most courageous thing we can do is to risk being taken advantage of in order to do the right thing.

People to see, things to do, places to go

came home from my daily workout at the Y this morning to stumble aimlessly about the kitchen. The tasks of measuring out oatmeal, pouring juice, setting out pills and heating tea water pulled me somewhat back on course. There has to be more to it if this retirement stuff is to keep me on my toes. It’s good to be busy. Otherwise, the world of Sudoku, TV, crosswords, casinos and naps will gobble up my days. Feeling particularly aimless this morning I bypassed TV to open my notebook to see if I could put some needed structure in my day, that is, I made a list. The problem with my lists is that I can’t recall fully half the things that I should be writing down. They’ll come to mind again. It’s just that too many notions that ought to be noted down slip from Active Memory to Inactive Memory. You’ll notice that lots of seniors carry little notebooks to help with this. Think of them as auxiliary memories. As to reliability, notebooks are almost failsafe. They contain no batteries to recharge. If one turns up lost, a buck buys a replacement at the Dollar Store. Information sharing is a matter of ripping out a page. Together with the calendar that lives beside the kitchen phone, a notebook does a fair job of keeping me from blowing appointments. While youngsters under age 60 might write off notebooks and to-do lists as evidence of encroaching senility, they’re actually our equivalent of digital memories. Back when we were reporting for work and getting kids off to school, we had to stay more alert to keep life from slipping into chaos. Deadlines and appointments still work to keep us on our toes.

OPINION

BOB GRAEF

Re-play me returning home from the Y to yawn, stretch, and wonder what to do next. A nap? Not yet. Retirement is not going to turn me into a couch potato, not when there’s time and opportunity to tackle things past obligations pushed onto the back burner. There’s still plenty to do if you don’t mind not getting paid for your efforts. Actually, not getting paid is sort of liberating. After all, what’s the worst a boss can do? So here we are with a heady mix of available time and a world full of opportunity. Or I could let that available time pattern itself after The First Law of Garages that says, “Whatever junk is stored in a garage will swell up to fill all available space.” Just so, if I let more than a token amount of junk-activities enter my day, I will become a couch potato. No way! There has to be more to life than Duck Dynasty and Honey Boo Boo. Advertisers want a piece of me. We seniors represent a growing sector of the economy that has them salivating for the contents of my bank account. They’ve discovered that seniors treat pets more like grandchildren and they spend on them accordingly. The Petfinder website says the first year of dog ownership costs a minimum of $766, rising to $10,350 for wellheeled pamperers of money-pit pups. On the other hand, ads for Depends, Fixodent and Medicalert bracelets don’t turn seniors on,

focusing as they do on debilitating effects of aging or ways to make the long goodbye less stressful. But seniors still hold a lot of money. Globally, we will control $15 trillion by the 2020 so the trick for marketers is to get us to shop as never before. Good luck with that. We geezers have pretty much everything we need and are at an age where we hesitate to buy green bananas. It drives advertisers nuts that it’s so hard to get us to spend. We have other ways of getting a kick out of life. Mick Jagger is still shimmying at age 70. Diana Nyad completed her epic swim at age 64, and 92 year-old Gladys Burrill became the oldest person to finish a marathon. We still buy stuff but not because of sales pressure. One survey showed that the peak agegroup for new car buyers now lies between 55 to 64. It’s also shown that ads have almost zero effect on why seniors buy particular makes or models. Of course there’s seniors’ hearing loss to consider but that’s not why sales pitches fall on deaf ears. What sellers fail to understand is that we don’t need more stuff. We’ve seen the effects of stuffication and it isn’t pretty. What oldsters need are ways to fill their days with meaningful activity. Volunteers at Providence Hospital’s visitor’s desk do important work. So do literacy teachers at the library and workers at Marysville’s food bank. Communities can’t get along without us and we don’t do well without something worthwhile to do. When more old-timers and communities figure this out, life will become better for everyone.

Uhler uses cancer diagnosis to help other women BY LAUREN SALCEDO lsalcedo@arlingtontimes.com

MARYSVILLE — According to the National Cancer Institute, one in eight women born today will be diagnosed with breast cancer in her lifetime. October is Breast Cancer Awareness month — a time when women are encouraged to take charge of their health and complete self breast exams for early detection. Marysville’s Jen Uhler knows from personal experience why early detection is so important. In 2011, Uhler was raising three kids, working at Providence Regional Medical Center’s Comprehensive Breast Center, and taking night classes at Everett Community College for her nursing prerequisites. In her career she interacted with breast cancer patients, survivors and women who were coming in for their first mammogram. “I was a single mom of three teenagers, and I actually work at the Comprehensive Breast

Center in Everett, so I know all about the care involved,” said Uhler. “I was really busy but not really stressed. I worked full time, I had three kids in school and I was going to night school four nights a week.” On June 21, 2011, at the age of 40, Uhler did a self examination and discovered something that would change her life forever. “I hadn’t even had my mammogram yet,” she said. “I had just turned 40 and just did a self exam and I found something. It felt like the size of a small pea and it was pretty hard. I actually felt, at that instant, that I had cancer. I just knew it. It was a Friday night when I found my lump and I didn’t say anything to anybody.” The following Monday, Uhler took time off from work to see her doctor, who didn’t believe that it was cancer — at first. “My doctor kind of dismissed it,” said Uhler. “He said I was too young, just 40 years old. He said it was really unlikely.” Uhler decided to go into her work and ask for a secT:4.8333”

ond opinion. “I ran over to work and had somebody feel it, and the very next day I had a mammogram,” she said. “I just kind of knew. I’ve talked to other people who say they knew too. I felt like I kept telling people there was something wrong with me.” That Tuesday, Uhler went in for her mammogram and faced looks of concern from friends and coworkers who, just days before, had been laughing and joking as the weekend approached. “It was difficult for the people working there — my colleagues and friends that work with me. I told one of my coworkers that I found a lump and she was very professional about it, but I could tell in her eyes that she was worried. They typically don’t schedule a biopsy on the same day as a mammogram, but on Tuesday I had a biopsy and the very next day I knew I had cancer.” For Uhler, finding out through her work that she had cancer was a difficult process. “I was so worried about

She immediately called her family. “I just excused myself and called my sister and brothSee UHLER, PAGE 17

SMOKEY POINT — XYZ Studio and Your Image Studio were officially welcomed as neighbors of Mt. Pilchuck Ski & Sport at 5200 172nd St. NE in Arlington on Saturday, Sept. 28, as 35 participants turned out for that morning’s free Zumba class in spite of the gray skies and drizzle outside. “We were right about at capacity for what this room will hold,” said Paige McLaren, who serves as XYZ Studios’ instructor in the areas of Zumba, yoga and Turbokick, just as her cohort Debi Terrell provides Pilates, TRX and personal training. “I just want to thank everybody who’s joined us on this journey. We have so much to offer in one place here, from health to beauty services, and our goal is to make it an inclusive, accepting, encouraging environment, where women

A lot of people are nervous about coming to gyms or starting fitness programs — it takes a lot of guts — but everyone has to start somewhere.” Michelle Torstenson started Zumba with McLaren as her instructor more than six years ago, back when XYZ Studio was operating out of Stanwood. “It’s not an exercise class, so much as it is a feel-goodabout-yourself healthy class,” Torstenson said. “It’s an hour devoted to me, when I can have fun and not feel guilty. It’s as easy or as hard as you want it to be. I did Zumba with Paige the whole time I was pregnant, right up until the day before I delivered, and it was the easiest delivery I ever had.

Government shutdown has local impacts

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

EVERETT — The federal government shutdown has hit home locally, as Naval Station Everett furloughed 43 civilian employees on Tuesday, Oct. 1, and the Smokey Point Commissary at the Navy Support Complex in north Marysville closed on Wednesday, Oct. 2. “This morning, all of our workers reported in as usual, so that we could issue notices to those workers who are being furloughed,” said Cmdr. Jeff Caulk, commanding officer of Naval Station Everett, on Oct. 1. “Those 43 workers have departed and are being furloughed until this shutdown ends. They work in a variety of departments and divi-

sions, performing several functions across the board.” Caulk emphasized that Naval Station Everett’s essential services — including fire, security and port operations — would remain in operation throughout the furlough, and noted that a number of civilian businesses on base, such as restaurants, would also remain open. “We have a number of civilian employees on base who are paid through nonappropriated funding,” Caulk said. “What that means is that they’re paid out of the profits of their businesses, and not out of taxpayer dollars.” Caulk agreed with Capt. Christopher Larsen of the 364th Expeditionary Sustainment Command,

In the wake of the federal government shutdown starting Oct. 1, the Smokey Point Commissary at the Navy Support Complex in north Marysville shut down Oct. 2.

“Naval Station Everett, the U.S. Navy and the Department of Defense all value our civilian employees very highly.” Cmdr. Jeff Caulk, commanding officer Naval Station Everett a U.S. Army Reserve unit headquartered in north Marysville adjacent to the Navy Support Complex, that they hope the government shutdown will not last long. “Naval Station Everett, the U.S. Navy and the Department of Defense all value our civilian employees very highly,” Caulk said. “This affects not only the civilian workers and their families, but every citizen in this country,” said Larsen, who estimated the 364th Expeditionary Sustainment Command’s furloughed employees number in the hundreds. “The most immediate reality of this furlough for us in the 364th is that our full-time soldiers will have to double up on their workloads to cover the duties of our large civilian workforce.” At the same time, Larsen reassured the public that mission readiness would not be compromised, since military members will continue to receive pay during the furlough.

At the Navy Support Complex in north Marysville, the doors of the Smokey Point Commissary were locked and its lights were turned off starting Oct. 2, one day after the federal government shutdown had begun. “We’ll be able to keep on supporting our soldiers and our country,” said Capt. Larsen, who echoed Caulk in reporting no changes as of Thursday, Oct. 3. U.S. Rep. Rick Larsen, of Washington state’s 2nd Congressional District, blamed Republicans for what he sees as their role in a government shutdown that will limit services to veterans. “Republican leaders said they didn’t want a shutdown and they didn’t want Obamacare,” Rep. Larsen said on Monday, Sept. 30. “But on Tuesday morning, we’ll wake up to a government that is shut down

and Obamacare in full operation. Thousands of Washington residents will be able to enroll in highquality health care plans they never had access to before.” Fellow U.S. Rep. Suzan DelBene, of the state’s 1st Congressional District, pledged to return her personal salary to the U.S. Treasury for the duration of the shutdown. “For as long as this unnecessary shutdown occurs, hundreds of thousands of public servants will be working without pay,” DelBene said. “Families, children, seniors, veterans and businesses across

Washington state are counting on all members of Congress to work together and do their job.” “Tonight I join with so many Washington families in being frustrated and disappointed that House Republicans have shut down the federal government over a crisis of their own creation,” U.S. Sen. Patty Murray said on Sept. 30. “Shutting down the government over a law that has, and will continue to, provide Washington families with access to affordable health care is the height of irresponsibility, and Washington state families deserve better.”

LUBE, OIL FILTER & 5-QUART OIL CHANGE

ARLINGTON — As Foster’s Produce & Corn Maze gets ready for the first weekend of its annual Fall Pumpkin & Corn Maze Festival this month, Connie Foster recalled how the event has grown since she and her husband Brian started it in 1998. “We’ve added five acres to our corn maze, to make it a total of 10 acres,” said Connie Foster, co-owner of Foster’s Produce & Corn Maze. “We’ve also added a couple more acres to our pumpkin patch to make that 10 acres too.” Foster’s “Pirate Ship Adventures Corn Maze” challenges participants to find 15 items and 23 letters in the corn maze, to come up with a phrase that will solve a riddle, although Connie Foster promised

one final twist to the game that she can’t reveal in print. By contrast, this year’s pumpkin slingshot promises to be a slightly more straightforward activity. “We hand people a slingshot and some small pumpkins, and for $1, they get three tries to hit a target,” Foster said. “If they make it, they win an ice cream cone. It’s usually 8-year-old girls who win this thing, but it’s fun for all ages. We even let adults do it, although we set the target back further to be fair.” Connie Foster also promised that this year’s pumpkin harvest would provide plenty of appealing choices to pick from in Foster’s “YouPick” pumpkin patch. “This is probably one of the best pumpkin harvests we’ve had,” Foster said. “You need heat and moisture to grow really good pumpkins, and we got plenty of both this year. There have been years where our pumpkins haven’t even turned orange, because of the weather, but that’s sure not the case this year.” Connie Foster welcomed attendees to treat themselves to tractor-drawn hayrides, a hay maze and the farm’s ani-

City Council candidatures discuss issues at Oct. 2 forum BY KIRK BOXLEITNER

kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

SMOKEY POINT — While the turnout might not have been huge, the Arlington City Council candidates’ forum at the Stillaguamish Senior Center on Wednesday, Oct. 2, proved to be a lively affair nonetheless, as those who did attend did not hesitate to speak their minds to the candidates in attendance. The afternoon event drew all the candidates in the City Council’s contested races this fall, including Council Position 1 incumbent Steve Baker and challenger Jesica Stickles, Position 2 incumbent Chris Raezer and chal-

lenger Shery Christianson, and Position 7 candidates Jan Schuette and Michael Hopson. When the candidates were invited to address one another, Raezer commended all of his fellow candidates on how civilly they’d conducted their campaigns. Schuette followed by asking her fellow candidates for their reactions to the information and proposals presented at the City Council’s workshop meeting on Monday, Sept. 30, regarding the city’s 2014 budget revenue options. “I’m not a big fan of raising property taxes, especially with the state auditor saying that we haven’t handled

our finances well, but we may need to do it in the short run,” Hopson said. “The main concern I’ve heard from citizens, as I’ve been door-belling, is how much they feel nickel-anddimed by their utility rates,” said Stickles, who described herself as open to a number of possible solutions, so long as they constitute a long-term fix. “I agree with Michael’s concerns about raising taxes,” Baker said. “I worry that businesses will be discouraged from coming into town, and we need retail for both our tax revenues and our job base.” While Baker characterized himself as encouraged by the results of the Transportation Benefit District, in terms of putting a proposed tax to the voters, Christianson still expressed reservations about raising taxes. “What would it take for us to live within our budget?” Christianson asked. “Where else should we be looking to make cuts?” “Do we want to give up our parks?” Schuette asked. “I totally support additional property tax revenues, and I will go door-to-door for that.” Raezer pointed out that the

city has laid off 19 employees since 2010 and is restricted by relying so heavily upon sales tax revenues, since Washington state doesn’t have an income tax. “And the state auditor’s finding was not about how we’d been spending our money, but about our reserve fund balance being too low,” Raezer told Hopson. When the floor was opened for questions from the audience, George Boulton, of Flowers By George on Olympic Avenue, urged elected officials and citizens alike to keep in mind that Arlington receives no sales tax revenues from the businesses in Lakewood, on the west side of Interstate 5. Raezer agreed with Boulton’s suggestion that perhaps “Buy Local” should be more specific in adding “Arlington First,” while Christianson and Hopson proposed divergent strategies for bolstering the local business climate. “I remember, when we first moved here, that there were clothing stores on Olympic Avenue,” Christianson said. “Now, Arlington Hardware is about the only place you can buy clothes downtown.” “Studies of businesses that are coming to this area have

shown that Arlington is not getting retail, because that’s going across the freeway,” Hopson said. “Manufacturing

is where we can get major growth, and if we encourage that part of the economy, retail will grow around it.”

Arlington pummels Cascade, 9-0 BY LAUREN SALCEDO lsalcedo@arlingtontimes.com

ARLINGTON — The Lady Eagles dominated Cascade in a home match on Tuesday, Oct. 1, with a 9-0 shutout. “Our final score was 9-0, and right now our forwards, Bre Morren and Danielle Baker, are playing really well,” said head coach Nathan Davis. “They are putting pressure on the other teams’ defense and goalkeepers — they are dangerous. And the midfield did a really good job of serving it up for them.” One of those midfielders is sophomore Olivia Larson, who was named the WIAA athlete of the week for scoring two of the team’s five goals against Mount Vernon two weeks before the Cascade game. “This year I like that we are super close and all good friends,” said Larson, who played on the varsity team as a freshman last year. “There’s eight sophomores this year and we all play on the same select team, so we’ve been playing together for four years. We have really solid seniors and juniors, and we have one freshman who is a really good player. She plays center-mid with me.” Larson thinks that their team mentality helped them succeed in

their win over Cascade. “I think we played a solid game and went out and took care of business,” she said. “We want to win districts and one playoff game — that’s our goal for this year.” Davis is proud of Larson and said she is an important part of the team. “She is a super hardworking kid who deserves recognition,” he said. “Olivia never stops on the field and I think it’s cool that she got that recognition. What makes her awesome is that she makes everyone else play better.” Larson had three assists in the game against Cascade. “Olivia did a really good job of setting up for goals,” said Davis, who also commended his captains for their leadership on the field. “Darby Winterer and Sophia Hitsky are doing a nice job of keeping everyone focused. Maddi Grogan, our center defender, is a four-year letterman and is a very calming, composed presence. She makes really good decisions and is the anchor of our defense.” Arlington’s goalkeeper Kat Sanchez had three saves that night and yet another shutout. “Throughout the year, Kat has had five or six shutouts so she is doing really well,” said Davis, who echoed Larson’s thoughts on

The better you do in league, the better your seeding is and that will really help us. Right now we have four games against strong teams from the South that will test us. We have Kamiak on Tuesday, Oct. 8, and they are really good. After that, on Thursday, we face Jackson, so those are really big games. We’ll just do what we do and compete the same way we did against Monroe and Lake Stevens.” Bre Morren scored the first goal at 10 minutes with an assist from Danielle Baker, who scored the second goal one minute later. Morren scored another goal at 22 minutes, and three minutes later Lily Bynum scored a goal. Morren scored another at 30 minutes on an assist from Larson. At the 43rd

Everett hosts Eagle cross country BY LAUREN SALCEDO lsalcedo@arlingtontimes.com

ARLINGTON — The Eagles cross country team warmed up for the Twilight Invitational on Saturday, Oct. 5, when they swept a meet at Everett Memorial Stadium on Thursday, Oct. 3. “We swept them, it wasn’t even close,” said head coach Mike Shierk, of the Seagull meet, which also hosted Monroe. “The girls won with 17 points, the boys got 19 points and the JV boys got 16 points.” There were clear leaders in each division. Emma Janousek took first place for the girls,” said Shierk. “On the boys’ side it was Nathan Beamer in first place. JJ Childress led the JV boys. It was really cool because we were kind of using this race as a confidence builder for Saturday

because our Saturday race is our main focus. We are going against nine of the 16 teams we will be racing against at the Bi-District Championships. We want to see how we match up and didn’t want to be too tired from today’s effort. We took it easy for the first mile, and the kids performed remarkably. We are in a really good place right now.” This year, the Eagles are training for one specific goal. “We have been training harder than we ever have because the kids have been asking us to help them to get to a place they have never been to — they want to get to state. We have been punishing them as far as the workouts go. They are really, really working hard. One thing Shierk said shows the skill of this season’s athletes is the strength

Centennial Trail Push Race set for Oct. 12-13 ARLINGTON — Since the inception of the sport just three years ago, distance skateboarding finally comes home to what many call the hub of longboarding — the Pacific Northwest. Two of the top Board shops in the country have agreed to sponsor and host two events in October, including one in Arlington. Jonathan Strauss, founder of the International Distance Skateboard Association said, “We couldn’t be happier to see two top-notch events coming to the Pacific Northwest.” The Pacific Northwest tour starts off on Sunday, Oct. 6 with the Push In the Woods 5K and 10K races on the Banks Vernonia

Trail right outside of Portland, Ore. The tour continues on to Arlington, where thanks to the Snohomish County Tourism Department, a two-day event featuring a one-mile and a 5K under the lights in downtown Arlington on Oct. 12 and a half-marathon on the Centennial Trail on Oct. 13 will feature a $2,500 prize purse. To register for this race visit www.motionboardshop.com/pages/push-race. Register before Oct. 9 for discounted early registration fees. The IDSA’s aims to ultimately infuse new energy into skateboarding as a viable and legal mode of transportation. The IDSA can be visited at http:// www.theidsa.org.

Lakewood soccer tops Coupeville, 2-0

BY LAUREN SALCEDO lsalcedo@arlingtontimes.com

LAKEWOOD — The Lady Cougars soccer team took their second win against Coupeville at home on Tuesday, Oct. 1, winning 2-0. “I wouldn’t classify Coupeville as one of our bigger rivals, but every year is a different year,” said head coach Steve Brown. The Cougars beat the Wolves for the second time this season, the first being a 7-0 match on Sept. 19. This time, the Cougars took an

early lead with a goal scored in the first two minutes by Sophia Morgan, assisted by senior captain Hailey Duitsman. The second goal came in the 38th minute, set up by Maddie DeYoung and scored by Cassidy Fry. This season is looking up for the Cougars who were extremely young last year having graduated 13 players. “Last year we were a young team because we lost 13 players, and this year we returned pretty much everybody, and JV players

who moved up in addition to that.” The Cougars are playing at a highly competitive level, especially since most play on select teams in the offseason. “We tied for the final district spot and ended up having a playoff game against Cedarcrest and lost, so we didn’t make it to districts,” said Brown. “This year, they definitely want to get to districts. The year of experience last year helped, because a lot of them were young. One of their

strengths is definitely the way they move the ball and their passing skills — they pass the ball really well. We have a really strong defense as well, and we don’t allow a lot of goals.” Duitsman and Shantel St. Jean are the two captains who are helping to lead the Cougars to success.

“The girls respect them a lot and they are leaders on the field — they lead by example just by the way they play the game,” said Brown. They face key league games, including Archbishop Murphy, a team that is 8-0 overall and leading the league.

“They are ranked number three in the state, but the first time we played them it was a really close match,” said Brown. “They are a big rival, so that’s one of the team’s goals for the year is to beat Archbishop Murphy.” The Cougars face the Wildcats in an away game on Tuesday, Oct. 8, at 6 p.m.

There are some really young guys on the team too, so this time next year we will have some really strong juniors at the state tournament.” The Twilight Invitational is hosted by Marysville Getchell at Cedarcrest Golf Course. “We love the Twilight. It’s such a celebration of the sport and we look forward to it, we can’t wait,” said Shierk. “We are intentionally going there because we want to do well and build our confidence. We aren’t expecting to win the whole thing but we want to go in and have a good showing. We are doing everything and we are going to race as hard as we can and be a little more gutsy. It’s the biggest meet for that day in the state of Washington and we are excited to be there.”

Although the inclement weather cancelled the day’s main activity of free airplane rides for children aged 8-17 years old, the Washington State Department of Transportation’s Aviation Division still saw 108 kids at its paint-an-airplane booth, before the tent was taken down out of concerns that it might blow over. Marysville’s Daniel Dunn was all smiles in the flight simulator that day, but with a dad who’s worked both at Boeing and on board a Navy aircraft carrier, the family acknowledged that their boy probably has a touch of aviation in his blood. While the Dunns were attending their second Arlington Airport Appreciation Day, Lashaunna Hepworth and her kids braved the elements to make the relatively short trek from their Smokey Point home to check out the event for the first time this year. “We just love airplanes,” Hepworth said. “Getting these kids interested in possibly becoming future aviators is a great idea.” Jim McGauhey had hoped to take some of those children on flights with

Joshua was a young man that loved life and lit up a room with his infectious laugh and smile. He loved his family and friends very much and always wanted to see them happy. A few of his favorite things were sports, the outdoors, long boarding and making music. Joshua attended Ingleside High School in Ingleside, Texas where he lettered in football.

Whether they take up aviation as a hobby or as a career, 7 percent of all currently active pilots started out as Young Eagles.” “We’re hoping to impart some of our passion for flight onto these kids,” said fellow pilot Miguel Nelson. “If you introduce them to aviation when they’re young, they won’t be afraid to go up in a plane.” McGauhey deemed the Arlington Airport an excellent educational and economic resource, an assessment with which Arlington Airport Coordinator Tim Mensonides concurred. “This was still a great day to showcase the Arlington Airport,” Mensonides said. “Part of the aviation game is the weather, and this teaches people that you have to respect that.” Mensonides cited a 2012 WSDOT Aviation Division economic study which reported that businesses at the Arlington Airport have a total economic output of $144,200,000 per year. “The study found the airport creates 566 direct jobs and 411 indirect jobs, equaling 977 positions, with a total income of $46.6 million per year. The estimated annual spending by visitors who travel to the airport is $2,732,700 per year, which creates 41 direct and indirect jobs.”

Biking to raise cancer awareness

Cancer survivor from Germany bikes through Marysville, Arlington on sixth ‘world tour’ BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — German native Randolph Westphal is riding throughout the Pacific Northwest, on a bicycle with two Husky dogs, to spread a message of hope about cancer, and on Monday, Sept. 30, he stopped in Marysville for a moment before heading up north to Arlington on the Centennial Trail. Since he was first diagnosed with malignant melanoma in 1987, the 55-year-old Westphal has beaten the odds in ways that have gone beyond even his survival in the face of being given an initial prognosis of six months to live. “When I was first diagnosed, I wondered why I had cancer, since I didn’t

smoke or drink,” said Westphal, who found out shortly after the death of his grandmother. “I came to the conclusion that it was from negative stress, so I decided to just do what I like to counter that. I always tell people, I’m not sick, I just have cancer.” Indeed, since his initial diagnosis, Westphal estimates he’s spent most of the intervening 36 years on the road, racking up approximately 211,000 kilometers in riding around the world, or slightly more than 131,000 miles. At the same time, Westphal has undergone 28 cancer operations since his initial diagnosis, ranging from Stage II to Stage IV, leaving him with a 60-centimeter scar on the side of

his torso that he likened in appearance to a shark bite. And yet, even with an artificial hip and knee, he still carries a load of close to 530 pounds as he pedals, including his gear and his dogs, Nanook and her son Chinook. “It was from my accident in Argentina in 1996 that I lost my memory, my vision and my speech,” Westphal said of the near-fatal hitand-run that severed his left leg and claimed the life of one of his earlier dogs, Shir Khan. “I’m on my third generation of dogs. I still have problems with my vision, and my speech gets slow when I get tired, but because I kept a diary that was regularly updated, I was able to read it and remind myself of my life. I

have about 80 to 90 percent of my memories back now, but there are still people I don’t recognize.” Even during his current sixth “world tour,” which started in Vancouver, B.C., on May 4, Westphal collapsed on the side of the road in Prince George, B.C., for two hours on Aug. 1, but he nonetheless insists that coping with cancer is a matter of attitude and healthy living. “Nobody is a statistic,” said Westphal, who planned to make it to Sedro-Woolley in time to attend their area Rotary Club meeting on Thursday,

“I still have problems with my vision, and my speech gets slow when I get tired, but because I kept a diary that was regularly updated, I was able to read it and remind myself of my life.” Randolph Westphal, Cancer survivor Oct. 3. “Cancer is not a death sentence. So much of what’s wrong with our health is manmade, We pollute our air and water, and our food doesn’t have the vitamins it had 30 years ago. We’ve harmed Mother Nature, but we forget that we are also part of nature.”

Those who would like to help support Westphal on his journey can transfer funds to his account with the Bank of Montreal through the routing number 08020. For more information, log onto his web site at www.randolph-westphal.de.

UHLER FROM PAGE 6 er,” she said. “My sister Heather is three years younger than me and my brother Jason is three years older than me. We are very, very close. My sister lives in Seattle and my brother lives in Everett. I swear she must have gotten from Seattle to Everett in 15 minutes.” She was worried about telling her three children the news. “When they told me I had cancer, I started crying and the first thing I thought of was my kids,” she said. Her daughter Megan, now 16, could sense that something was wrong. “I wanted to tell them all three together,” she said. “My daughter knew something was going on. She kept texting me, ‘What did they say?’ and ‘What’s wrong? What’s going on?’ I told them all three together the next day.” Her sons, Cody, now 19, and Braydon, now 17, were stunned into silence by the news that their mother had been diagnosed with breast cancer at just 40 years old. “The boys just sat there,” said Uhler. “Braydon walked into his bedroom and my older son didn’t say anything at all. My daughter cried a little bit. We were all just shocked. I was actually in shock for a couple of weeks. But I had a huge support system throughout Marysville, and my coworkers were so supportive. I have so many wonderful friends and family.” After work the following day, Uhler went to church where there was a women’s speaker that night. “I had already planned on going, and after my diagnosis my friend said, ‘We should go to church.’ The speaker that night was an 8-year breast cancer survivor,” she said. “We had no idea that she would be speaking that night. She was diagnosed at age 32, so when she was speaking, she

was the same age that I was.” Hearing from a young breast cancer survivor only days after being diagnosed gave Uhler strength to face the trials that lay ahead. “I met with my doctor and he gave me the option of a lumpectomy or a mastectomy,” she said. “I had a unilateral mastectomy. I met with a surgeon, and a plastic surgeon as well, trying to figure out what to do. I had a mastectomy of my right breast on Aug. 12, 2011.” The surgery wasn’t the only treatment that Uhler went through to eliminate the cancer. “Because of my age, being so young, we went ahead and did chemotherapy,” she said. “I started chemotherapy in September of 2011. And I didn’t even do my first reconstruction until January of 2012, after I had completed the chemotherapy.” The months-long process of chemotherapy put an enormous strain on Uhler, who as a single mom was struggling with how to financially support her family while her body was fighting a deadly disease. “I felt like a chemotherapy failure,” she said. “I didn’t do very well. I was so sick. I didn’t hardly work at all, and it was hard because when I had gone through my mastectomy I used all eight weeks of sick pay for my surgery, so I was planning on going back to work. I thought I could have chemotherapy on a Thursday and recover over the weekend, but it didn’t work out that way. I barely worked at all.” Nausea, pain, loss of appetite and loss of weight were daily struggles for Uhler, who was also stressed about her finances. “It was hard because I was stressed about how I was going to make my house payment and feed my kids,” she said. “My sister told me not to worry. Everyday somebody was bringing

over meals for me and my kids, from the time of my mastectomy to the end of chemotherapy. Lots of people in the Breast Center donated their paid time off for me to use and that’s how I got through it. It was really tough, but with my coworkers and my friends hosting fundraisers and bake sales, I had a lot of people helping me out financially.” Losing a breast and your hair is more than just losing parts of your body — it’s like losing your femininity — especially for young women. “It totally changed my self confidence,” said Uhler. “It was the hardest thing. Losing my hair was harder than the mastectomy. When you are young you don’t want to lose your hair. After we shaved my head, I felt relieved. But it was hard going out in public because I knew that everybody was going to notice me. That winter, one of Uhler’s friend’s gave her a gift that helped her to make it through the hard times. “A really good friend of mine bought us a puppy during chemotherapy,” she said. “He is a King Charles Cavalier Spaniel named Bentley. Bentley gave me something to do when the kids were at school. He is just like one of my children. He was a great addition to the family — he helped us out and made us laugh. He always knew when I wasn’t well and he would comfort me. I was never a dog person either, but he just has been the best thing.” Although Bentley kept her comforted, Uhler remembers one moment when she didn’t think that she could carry on. “Toward the end of my chemotherapy treatment I told my sister, ‘I don’t want to do this anymore.’ I had four treatments every three weeks and I said, ‘I am not doing my last one.’ You just

start feeling better, and then you have to do another treatment. But she said, ‘Yes you are. You’ve gone this far, you are going to make it through.’” After her chemotherapy treatment was over, Uhler continued her breast reconstruction, which included four individual surgeries, a tissue expander and a breast implant. “I didn’t think that anybody would find me remotely attractive,” she said, about dating in the future. “I don’t know how to tell people that I don’t have a breast. Prior to cancer, I was a size A breast, and I went from an A to a C, so I always tell people to take advantage of the situation,” she laughed. “I was fine with my boobs, at least I got mine for free. Of course, I had to go through cancer to get them, so it’s a joke now.” Uhler is now cancer free and uses her experience to help other women.

“Now I feel like I can help a lot of people, because of my journey,” she said. “If I know they are young, I’ll walk up to them and tell them I’m sorry about their diagnosis and that I was diagnosed two summers ago. You can see the relief.” Uhler began a support group with another young cancer survivor for women under 45 years old. They meet on the second and fourth Tuesday of every month at the Cancer Partnership in Everett at 5:30 p.m. Uhler has plans to start her classes once again this winter quarter and is cherishing her time with her children, whom

she said really stepped up to the plate during her treatment. “The main thing that I want people to get is that life continues after breast cancer,” she said. “There is a reason I have breast cancer. I have helped so many people, and even if you have a tragedy in your life, you can turn it around and help people. I truly believe that breast cancer changed my life for the better, if you can believe that.” For more breast cancer stories see the Oct. 12 edition of The Arlington Times and The Marysville Globe for the Pink Crusade section.

Name: Duffer Animal ID : 21025605 Breed : Terrier, Fox, Toy / Mix Age : 12 years Gender : Male Color : Tan / White Spayed/Neutered : Yes

Name: Galley Animal ID : 20724661 Breed : Domestic Shorthair / Mix Age : 4 months 10 days Gender : Male Color : Grey Spayed/Neutered : Yes

Meet Duffer! This guy came into the shelter because his previous owner was having health issues and was no longer able to take care of him. He's a very friendly guy who prefers the company of one or two people (adults only). He loves to go out for daily walks and having chew toys. He's a great little dog who will do well in any living situation as long as he's given enough exercise! If you think Duffer is the guy for you, fill out an application today!

Galley is a 4 month old, neutered tabby male. He has a great personality and is full of spunk. He loves to play with toys and other kitties. He will probably need to brushed as his adult fur looks like it will be medium length and very soft. He is a sweet boy that likes to be cuddled, but he has lots of energy so get ready for a fiesty kitty!

All animals adopted from EAS are neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, wormed and treated for fleas. All cats are tested for FeLV.
