Angel of the Winds breaks ground on hotel BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — Friday, Oct. 25, saw the Angel of the Winds Casino officially break ground on construction of a new $20 million, 125-room, five-story hotel. “This is the next step in our growth of the Angel of the Winds Casino,” said Koran Andrews, CEO of the Stillaguamish Tribal Enterprise Corporation. “We continue to look at what our guests want,

and develop those amenities.” “We are truly blessed to have an opportunity to add a hotel to our facility, and provide more services to our guests,” Stillaguamish Tribal Chair Shawn Yanity said of the expansion, which will add more than 100,000 square feet to the casino, in the form of not only a new hotel, but also a new gift shop and smoke shop, as well as a porte-cochere to SEE HOTEL, PAGE 2

ARLINGTON — Although the two tables of kids at their laptops did their best to maintain respectfully low tones, the Arlington Library was nonetheless abuzz with flashing lights and electronic noises on Wednesday, Oct. 23, as the eight students in the fourth and final week of “Explore Arduino” saw their programming lessons pay off. The Sno-Isle Libraries Foundation secured a strategic initiative grant for the “Explore Arduino” course in do-it-yourself electronics, which was new to the Arlington Library and enlisted the aid of its teen librarian, Kelli Bragg, to provide in-library demonstrations and supervise the students’ hands-on interactions with the equipment. “That money was set

aside for exploring technology,” said Bragg, in between examining the kids’ connections between their laptops and their circuit boards. “The goal of this project is to teach them physical computing, to show them how to get their computers to run tools in the real world, whether it’s making coffee or watering plants.” The culminating project of the four-week “Explore Arduino” course was a bit simpler, but by teaching them how to light up LEDs and make electronic music play, Bragg hopes that the students will be armed with basic skills that they can apply to more complex programming tasks. “I was surprised by how quickly the kids took to the circuit boards and all their components, although it did

HOTEL FROM PAGE 1 centralize guests’ entrances to the property. “Not only are we growing our tribal economy, but we’re growing the local economy, too, by increasing job opportunities and tourism.” According to Travis O’Neil, general manager of the Angel of the Winds Casino, planning for the new hotel expansion began roughly 18 months ago, but the possibility of such an expansion was factored into the casino’s plans shortly before its previous expansion six years ago. “We’ve got a master plan, but we also listen to our guests,” O’Neil said. “We blocked out the space for this sort of expansion, because we always had in mind that the Angel of the Winds Casino would become a destination resort. We might as well reach for the stars. We’ve got a good group of people, who do their best for our guests, and the Stillaguamish Tribe has been willing to support us, so long as they see our accomplishments.” As far as O’Neil is aware, the Angel of the Winds Casino is one of the last, if not the last, casino on the I-5 corridor to add its own hotel, and he touted the new hotel — which is anticipated to open in the winter or spring of 2015, creating an estimated additional 50 jobs for the local community in the process — as “moderately priced, but not lower-end.” “The hotel will be just as comfortable and nice as they’ve come to expect from the casino,” O’Neil

“Not only are we growing our tribal economy, but we’re growing the local economy, too, by increasing job opportunities and tourism.” Shawn Yanity, Stillaguamish Tribal Chair said. “It promises to be a very good complement to the World’s Friendliest Casino.” Beyond the jobs that will be created once the new hotel opens, O’Neil also touted the local construction jobs that will be created in the meantime, since he expects that the Bellingham-based Excel Pacific will retain a number of subcontractors, whose employees he believes will likely include more than a few folks from Marysville and Arlington. “We’ve got other steps in our master plan, but it would be premature to discuss those at this point,” O’Neil said. “For right now, we just want to focus on making this hotel a success, and I just want to thank the Stillaguamish Tribe for the opportunities they’ve given me in this job. Their elders paved the way for this, and they’re supporting it because they’re mindful of leaving something to their future generations. It’s been a blessing to work with them.” The Angel of the Winds is located three minutes east of I-5 Exit 210 in Arlington.

EXPLORE FROM PAGE 1 help that the kits did a lot to guide them through the process,” said Bragg, who noted that each kit cost about $100. “From there, they downloaded the programming codes.” Although only four kids attended all four classes, Bragg estimated that the classes maintained an average of about eight students each week, whom she assisted in their final week by helping them diagnose any problems with their work. “The troubleshooting has been the hardest part of this project,” Bragg said. “Then again, that’s usually the hardest part of any project like this. It takes time to figure out whether they’ve plugged something into the wrong spot, or whether they might just have a bad LED unit.” While the course’s programming tasks can be demanding, Bragg reported that all of her students were fully engaged with the material, and confident in their own ability to tackle it. “They really appreciate the physicality of the engineering, I think,” Bragg said. “When they made the right connections, lights would go on and music would start to play. It’s a great way to introduce them to electronics and computing at this age without scaring them. The first time I mentioned the word ‘programming,’ a few of them tensed up, but they’ve done very well with coding and assembly, and gotten really enthusiastic about it. As opposed to standard classroom lectures, I think a lot of kids

In spite of not having any prior robotics experience, he’s already considering buying a kit of his own. “I like being able to make things work,” said 11-yearold Darius Storm, who

attended all four classes. “I built a robot arm before, but that didn’t have a computer chip, like this. It was hardwired. This isn’t like when I tried to fly an RC plane, and the prop wouldn’t turn. That was discouraging.” Fellow 11-year-old four-class-attendee Owen LaSalata was already a bit of a gear-head going into this course, but the experience more than lived up to his standards. “I love robotics,” LaSalata said. “I’m involved in like three or four different clubs for it. I like science so much, but robotics is the most fun. A lot of other sciences are about mixing things, but I like working with parts more than I like mixing substances.” At the age of 14, Michael Coalwell had little prior experience in this field. “I bought one kit, but that

was because my mom wanted me to make a game show buzzer for a 4-H program,” said Coalwell, in between snatching cookies from the shared wealth of snack foods at the center of his table of four. “It’s been great building new things, though.” Science-minded kids who missed out on “Explore Arduino” will have another chance to get their science on at the Arlington Library with “Crazy Concoctions: A Mad Scientist’s Guide to Messy Mixtures,” which starts at 2 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 26, and will feature experiments and recipes from the book by Jordan D. Brown, as kids wear old clothes and get ready to get messy in the name of science. The Arlington Library is located at 135 N. Washington Ave. in Arlington. For more information, call 360-435-3033.

Securely dispose of unwanted medications Arlington, Marysville, Everett host drug take-back sites on Oct. 26

Arlington, Marysville and Everett residents will be among those throughout Snohomish County to get an extra chance to securely dispose of unwanted medications on Saturday, Oct. 26. County residents are encouraged to clean out their medicine cabinets and take their unused prescriptions to secure disposal locations, coordinated by the Snohomish County Partnership for Secure Medicine Disposal. All these sites will accept unwanted vitamins, pet medications, over-thecounter medications, inhalers and unopened EpiPens, as well as controlled substances such as painkillers. “Law enforcement, public health and environmental professionals support take-back programs as the safest and most responsible way to get rid of unwanted and expired medicines that might otherwise harm

people or the environment,” said Jonelle FentonWallace, the Snohomish Health District representative on the Snohomish Regional Drug and Gang Task Force. In addition to twiceyearly drug take-back days, all law enforcement locations in the county take back unwanted medicines, including controlled substances, throughout the year, Mondays through Fridays. Year-round dropoff locations include the NCIS office at Naval Station Everett for those with access, the Washington State Patrol office in Marysville, and the tribal police stations on the Tulalip and Stillaguamish reservations. The yearround countywide drop-off sites have collected more than nine tons of unwanted drugs since 2009. The Snohomish County Partnership for Secure Medicine Disposal addresses growing community

concerns about abuse, accidental poisonings, overdoses and contamination of water from unwanted medications. Year-round programs ensure that residents have ongoing access to safe disposal of unwanted and expired medicines. Partnership members include the Snohomish

Health District, Snohomish County and its Sheriff ’s office, the Snohomish Regional Drug and Gang Task Force, the Washington State Patrol and all local law enforcement agencies. The Drug Enforcement Administration National Drug Take-Back Day will run at the following loca-

tions and times on Oct. 26: n The Arlington Police Department at 110 E. Third St. from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. n The Marysville Police Department at 1635 Grove St. from 1-3 p.m. n The Everett Police Department’s North Precinct at 3002 Wetmore Ave. from 8 a.m. to noon.

Other site locations and times are available online at www.takebackyourmeds. org, or by calling 425-3883199. Year-round locations can be found at www. snohd.org, by searching for “Unwanted Medicine.” For more information on the Snohomish Health District, log onto www.snohd.org.

One small stream could mean better water quality statewide

little creek in eastern Washington was at the center of an important water quality ruling recently by the Washington State Supreme Court, reaffirming the state’s right to regulate nonpoint sources of pollution in streams. Nonpoint pollution takes many forms, such as higher water temperatures, sediment, stormwater runoff, fecal coliform bacteria from failing septic systems and agricultural practices. For 10 years the state Department of Ecology (DOE) tried to work with rancher Joseph Lemire to keep his 29 head of cattle out of Pataha Creek, a small stream that runs through his property near Dayton. Lemire’s cattle had unrestricted access to the creek, leading to manure in the stream, eroded streambanks and increased sediment in the creek. When DOE finally ordered Lemire to stop polluting by fencing cows out of the creek, the rancher appealed, claiming that a fence would restrict use of his land and therefore was an unlawful “taking” of his property. The state Supreme Court disagreed in an 8-1 ruling. The fact that it took nearly a decade to get one rancher to do the right thing is made even more disturbing because Pataha Creek was selected as a model watershed in 1993 by the Bonneville Power Administration. BPA and other agencies have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars working with ranchers and farmers to provide everything from streamside fencing to tree and shrub planting to help improve the creek. Twenty years of voluntary efforts haven’t turned the tide of nonpoint pollution in many Washington watersheds. As the Lemire example shows, some-

BILLY FRANK, JR. times it takes more than money and voluntary efforts to protect our resources. And sometimes, all it takes to jeopardize our work is one landowner who’s not willing to do the right thing. Thankfully, the state has the authority to control these sources of pollution, and was willing to take the case to the state Supreme Court to defend it. That’s encouraging, because the ruling wasn’t anything new. It’s just a matter of the state having the will to use its authority to regulate nonpoint source pollution. We shouldn’t have to look to the courts for leadership. Let’s hope the court’s ruling will translate into better water quality protection on this side of the mountains, too. Our treaty rights depend on it. Our treaties guaranteed us the continued right to fish and gather shellfish, which depends on good water quality to ensure healthy salmon habitat and shellfish that are safe to eat. Nonpoint sources of water pollution constantly threaten our natural resources. When a shellfish harvest area is closed because of pollution, or salmon runs are reduced because of poor water quality, our treaty rights are denied altogether. We all live downstream — every one of us. We need to keep that in mind and work together to restore and protect water quality in this state.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Vote for Bill Blake With all of the hugely negative political news everyone has been hammered with lately, it almost seems that a lot of people may be pretty apathetic about voting in the upcoming Nov. 5 election. However, I once heard that changing things on the federal level is a pretty hard thing to do while doing the same along local lines can at least sometimes yield changes that benefit the community. Two well qualified candidates are running for Snohomish Council District 1, Bill Blake and Ken Klein. Ken serves the Arlington City Council and serves as vice-president of the Snohomish County Planning Commission while Bill has worked in Arlington’s Land Use and Permitting Division and now works as Stormwater Supervisor. So who do you vote for? Do you vote along Party lines? Most people tend to lean that way. I think in this case though it’s better to look at how these candidates view how Snohomish County will look in the years to come. We all want a viable economy with a diverse economic base, a region that offers jobs and opportunities of all kinds. The question becomes then, how much do we want our physical landscape to change in response to this new growth. Do we sacrifice our rural lands in the name of development? Will our natural resources be put at risk? Should property rights take precedence over common sense preservation of rural resources? While Ken Klein has some experience serving in public office, I feel that Bill Blake has the advantage over him in other ways. Bill has

worked alongside a variety of different groups and people, attending a large number of public meetings advocating for the preservation of sustainable AG land, promotion of sustainable forest industry jobs, and restoring the health of our waterways. Bill has spent hundreds if not thousands of hours of his after-work “spare” time not only meeting with advocates on all sides of these issues, but also actually walking the land with many of them. Bill understands the issues, he understands the land. He is well respected for his ability to reach out to those on all sides of an issue with positive results. While Ken Klein will someday be a great candidate for this position, I think he would do well to put on his hip waders and follow Bill’s footsteps through muddy fields, bushy wetlands, small creeks and rivers to see how everything interacts and to understand how critical it is to preserve the natural elements while also encouraging development in an integrated and responsible manner. Bill Blake has that experience and a background that can provide the vision Snohomish County needs to move toward a sustainable future, a future where growth and our rural character are balanced. Whether you are a Democrat or a Republican, please consider Bill Blake in your vote and be sure to check out his web site at www.voteforbillblake.com. Scott Clark Tulalip

Klein for Council Not long ago, Americans were told that Detroit, one of America’s largest cities, filed for Bankruptcy.

But, wait, since then, Washington D.C., Camden, N.J., Cincinnati, Ohio, San Diego, San Jose, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Calif. and Baltimore, Md., are all facing similar fates. Can it happen in Snohomish County? Most would say, “No way!” But, I would caution you that the 1,000,000 people who once lived in Detroit and fled probably said the same thing. So, what does this have to do with a County Council race in Snohomish County? It has everything to do with it. While the opposing candidate has experience in government resource and water management there is only one candidate who has the financial expertise to help Snohomish County thrive and not follow in the footsteps of Detroit and other American cities who are near bankruptcy. Those cities are not in severe financial straits because of their “water management” services or because they were trying to restore some animal habitat, they are there because of poor financial accountability. The County already employs many professionals with years of public experience in a variety of areas to do the research and studies necessary to inform the Executive and the Council. The Council oversees these projects and funding streams which make Snohomish County a truly viable community both commercially and socially. Ken Klein has a solid background in accounting and finance both in education and employment which will help the County make wise and prudent financial decisions with the taxpayer’s money.

LETTERS FROM PAGE 4 Whether that money comes from the county, state or federal government, it is all taxpayer money. The Council’s real job is to oversee the County’s finances as carefully and responsibly as possible to meet the greatest number of needs of the citizens within its financial means. Ken only recently began his public service with his election to the Arlington City Council, so his previous experience in the private rather than public sector will bring a fresh, fiscally responsible, differing point of view to the Council. Please vote to elect Ken Klein to the County Council! Catherine Paxton Arlington

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

Marysville and is running to ensure a safe and thriving community for all of us. Kamille Norton’s experience on the City Council and in several other advisory and leadership positions in our community are other major factors in her securing my vote. It’s refreshing to have a candidate in whom I have full confidence on the ballot. Laurzia Sumsion Marysville

Bill Blake deserves your vote When considering your vote for County Council District 1, consider this: Bill Blake is an absolutely genuine article. I’ve never met anyone so sincere in the simple and unpolluted wish to help his district. Bill is not a polished politician. His hand-painted banners and scruffy beard point to a different kind of candidate than we’re used to. He speaks his mind, and is always truthful. If you want to know how Bill stands on an issue, ask him. If you want to know what kind of candidate, or more importantly what kind of man he is, talk to him for five minutes and you’ll know. Bill will show fiscal responsibility. I hap-

pen to know that Bill made the posts his signs are stapled to from 2x4s he bought at Arlington Hardware and donated recycled wood scraps. He just couldn’t see wasting money when he could do the job himself. He will be just as careful with our tax dollars, encouraging prudence and thrift. Bill knows District 1 and the important issues facing it. He’s a rural man who lives a rural life. He’s lived and worked in Snohomish County most of his life and many of the same issues your family faces here his family does as well. He will make sure the voice of North County is heard. Bill has had a lengthy and decorated career. He isn’t in this to impress, or to gain a foothold for higher office. Bill just wants to help, period. Ragina Gray Marysville

professional and goal-oriented. She doesn’t just set a goal, she works out how to get there and follows the steps to accomplish the goal. I watched her successfully steer the Chamber through a difficult year, making the tough decisions required to reach compromises and the final goal of stability. Jesica and I worked on several committees together. She is excellent at reading and understanding contracts and regulations and she pays close attention to details, especially in the budget. As a business owner, she knows what local small businesses need in this economy and has the ability to balance that against budget concerns. I have always been impressed with her ability to handle any challenge that presents itself, including challenging people. She is always open to hearing from anyone with a concern or idea and is passionate about any task, committee or goal she takes on. I have no doubt that Jesica will make an excellent and productive council member for Arlington. I highly recommend her for this position and will be voting for her on Nov. 5.

While a number of Halloweenthemed community events will kick off during the weekend before Halloween itself, the Downtown Marysville Merchants Association will be commemorating Halloween on Oct. 31. From 4:30-5:30 p.m. that Thursday, participating merchants on Third Street will dress up for the occasion and hand out candy to trick-or-treaters for free. “It’s great for kids who are toddlers up to 10 years old, and their folks,” said Mary Kirkland, owner of Hilton’s Pharmacy on Third Street. “You don’t have to line up in any particular order, either. Just come on by and enjoy.” Kirkland noted that a number of businesses on Fourth and Second streets, the latter including The Vintage Violet, will also be taking part in the afternoon’s activities, during which time she expects to see several of her fellow merchants following her example by donning their own costume finery to greet the children in the spirit of the holiday. “The event is always fun and casual, with lots of darling young children and their families on the sidewalks, some out for their first Halloween trek,” Kirkland said. “At Hilton’s, we’re even going with a theme again this year, but we’re keeping it under wraps until the big day.”

Kirkland advised trick-or-treaters that they might also find some candy on the west side of State Avenue, just across the intersection from Third Street. “The downtown merchants are also sponsoring a coloring contest, from now until Halloween,” said Kirkland, who pointed kids and families alike to the Downtown Marysville Merchants Association website at www.marysvillemerchants.com for the picture that they can color, which is also available at any DMMA business. “Children from ages 2-12 years are invited to color the Halloween picture, drop it off at any Third Street business, and be entered into the contest to win two movie tickets, if they win first, second or third place.” Besides on-street parking on Third Street, families can find extra parking on Columbia Avenue and Second Street, as well as limited parking in the Carabinieri Espresso Bar parking lot. The Marysville Care Center’s annual “Trick-or-Treat Street” will also take place on Thursday, Oct. 31. Enterprising trick-or-treaters who still feel like filling up on candy after visiting Third Street can swing by the Marysville Care Center at 1821 Grove St. from 6:30-7 p.m. for their haunted house, games and more. A full day of events is scheduled in downtown Arlington on the Saturday before Halloween. The annual pumpkin carv-

Local CPA named United Way’s Finance Officer of the Year

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

Atlanta. “This award is a testament to Jeri’s hard work and longstanding commitment to United Way’s financial accountability and transparency,” said Dr. Dennis G. Smith, president and CEO of United Way of Snohomish County. “It

reflects her overall proven leadership skills, which she provides regularly in our organization, and across the entire United Way system.” The United Way Finance Officer of the Year Award is presented to a financial officer in the United Way system who exhibits outstanding leadership in financial management, and is seen as a role model inside and

outside of their organization. There are nearly 1,800 community-based United Ways in 38 countries and territories. “I am thrilled to win this award,” said Wilkes. “More than just a personal accomplishment, it also reflects United Way’s promise of excellence in nonprofit financial management.” In addition to her com-

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

saving donors $88,000 per year. During her tenure, all audits have come back with a clean opinion. She is also a past chair of United Way Worldwide’s Financial Issues Committee. Wilkes has been with United Way of Snohomish County for more than 14 years, beginning as a general ledger accountant and working her way up to CFO.

Day of Service project completed after month delay kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — The National Day of Service and Remembrance project to paint a fence in the Arlington Heights neighborhood, whose preparation work ran from Sept. 11-13, was finally completed on Saturday, Oct. 5, nearly a full month after its originally scheduled completion date of Sept. 14. Anya Zolotusky and Kim Robinson, the owners of the fence, had pledged to donate $500 — the value of refur-

bishing the fence — to the Arlington and Darrington community food banks, who recruited 30 volunteers to conduct prep work on the fence from Sept. 11-13, before an inhospitable drizzle on Saturday, Sept. 14, postponed the last leg of the project. “I put a check in the mail [on Wednesday, Oct. 9] to the Arlington Community Food Bank, along with a note explaining that this was in honor of the church’s Day of Service project,” said Zolotusky, referring

to the volunteers from the Arlington stake of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. “Not only was it great to get the fence painted, but I genuinely enjoyed meeting all the good folks who participated in this.” “We put in 53 man-hours of scraping, brushing and pressure-washing that wood fence,” said Dawn Dickson, one of the coordinators of the project. “We actually had a couple of nice days to wrap up our activity.” The fence is approximate-

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

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

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

AHS cross country heads to Wesco Championships BY SCOTT FRANK

sfrank@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — The Arlington High School boys and girls cross country teams travel to South Whidbey High School on Saturday, Oct. 26, to compete in the Wesco League Championship meet, and will be running on a course where they’ve already had considerable success this year. According to Arlington Cross County Head Coach Mike Shierk, the Eagles competed in the Sept. 21 South Whidbey Invite and had an outstanding day. “We took both the JV teams and both the varsity teams,” said Shierk. “Our girls varsity, our boys JV and our girls JV all won their races, while our boys varsity finished in second place. In addition, we also won the overall combined boys and

girls varsity. So out of the five possible trophies, we brought home four of them.” Shierk said that performance has given his kids a lot of confidence for the upcoming Wesco League meet on the same course. “We went there and did very, very well,” Shierk said. “We are happy about it because it gives the kids a lot of confidence, and they feel they can go back to that course and do very well for the Wesco Championships.” Shierk said the varsity boys team is led by sophomore Nathan Beamer, who set a new PR a couple of weeks ago at the Oct. 5 Twilight Invite. Also competing well recently for the boys are sophomores Peiter Andrew, Matthew Taylor and Michael Barene, and senior Ben Comerford. “On the boys’ side, one of our goals is to beat Lake

Stevens which has been a perennial State contender. They take a boys team to State almost every single year. Ever since I’ve been around, and this is my 14th year, they have always been able to get a team to qualify,” said Shierk. “And, so, our pathway to State is we have to beat Lake Stevens. That is our goal on Saturday, and the next Saturday after that, at the Bi-District meet, we are going for them again.” On the girls variety team, Shierk said a trio of runners lead the team. “At the recent Hole in the Wall Invite, our top five girls were led by a pack of three girls, sophomore Emma Janousek, junior Cassidy Rude and sophomore Gracie Castandeda,” said Shierk. “They are lights-out tough, and one of the reasons it is so cool is that they are all within seconds of each other.

Arlington High School’s girls and boys cross country teams celebrate their recent victories at the South Whidbey Invite. They all run in a pack, and when you can get three girls running as a pack, who run really fast and are going to be toward the front of the race, it is just extremely tough to compete with that type of group.” Shierk added, “We have a sophomore, Marie Gaudin, who is also consistently running well. And we have Shanelle Shirey, a junior, who just took almost 20 seconds of her season PR and almost broke 21 minutes. That was huge for us.” While the boys are looking to beat Lake Stevens, Shierk said the girls are looking to beat Snohmoish.

“We really want to compete with Snohomish,” said Shierk. “They are a really good team and have a great coach. We want to get them.” Shierk said that there are two ways to move on from the Wesco Championship to the Bi-District meet. “The top eight teams from the Wesco Championship move on to the Bi-District Championship, which is Wesco and Kingco, and the top 40 individuals qualify,” said Shierk. “At the Bi-District, it narrows down quite a bit, with the top five teams and the top 25 individuals moving on to the State meet. It’s much more of an

accomplishment to get a team of kids together to qualify, so that is what we always try to shoot for.” Shierk said he working to get his team to peak at the critical time of the season. “Not necessarily this week, but the week after, we are going to start pulling back a bit on the amount of mileage the kids are running, and the intensity of the workouts,” said Shierk. “We want them to peak a just the right time. We feel like we are in great shape, the kids are healthy, and we made it through the tough part of the season. The kids are confident as they prepare for the upcoming meets.”

Highland Christian spikers fall to Grace Academy BY SCOTT FRANK

Highland Christian’s girls volleyball Head Coach Hannah Gould talks to her players during the Oct. 22 match against Grace Academy.

ARLINGTON — The Highland Christian girls volleyball team hosted Grace Academy, Oct. 22, and fell to the Eagles 3-0. “The game we played on Tuesday was a really good fight,” said Highland Christian Head Coach Hannah Gould. “We always seem to play well against Grace because they push us to play harder. Our girls fought hard, and made some really good plays, but Grace has improved so much as well, so it was equal improvement on both sides, and they were able to overcome us.” The Oct. 22 game was not only the final game of the regular season, it was also Senior Night. “Brooke Hernandez is one of our senior captains, and she has been an outstanding player,” said Gould. “I actually played with her when I played volleyball. In 2012, I was a senior captain and it was her first year playing volleyball. It is really neat for me to see how she has

improved and become an amazing volleyball player.” Gould also praised the team’s other senior captain, Lyndsay Crawford. “She is brand new to the sport, just joining us to play this year,” said Gould. “She has been a leader on this team, and has played very well for us.” Other than the two seniors, Gould said her team is relatively young and new to the sport. “We have three or four girls who have played a little volleyball, everyone else is new,” Gould said. “It’s a very new and young team, but they have learned and improved so much just in the short amount of time they have played.” Gould said her team is looking forward to moving on to the playoffs, which start Oct. 31. “This is the first year we have gone to the playoffs in a while” Gould said. “It’s been a long dry spell for us, so this is going to be a huge highlight for our seniors, especially for Brooke, because she loves and cares so much about this sport.”

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

high school were decorated by each class to represent those themes,” said Klein, who also remembers the seniors being the winner of the weeklong competition most years. Another past tradition in Arlington was the bonfire, held following the football game. It seems to

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

Community members lined Olympic Avenue to greet the parade. AHS Secretary Dena Cave was elected Grand Marshall, and used her best hand-wave as she paraded through town. Students and parents followed the parade up to Haller Middle School for the Pepination Assembly, where Homecoming King Josh Lorde and Queen Brenna Kamppi were named. The week wrapped up on Friday with the traditional chili feed, sponsored by the Booster Club, and the Homecoming game with Monroe. Monroe won the game, but it wasn’t due to a lack of school spirit on Arlington’s side. Past Homecoming celebrations weren’t much dif-

ARLINGTON — Oct. 14-18 marked a full week of celebration for the Arlington High School Homecoming, an annual event that’s followed a tradition for many, many years. Indeed, it’s difficult to find a past graduate who knows when the festivities initially began. This year, Spirit Week included a variety of activities. Monday began with P.J. Day, during which students wore pajamas to class. Students wore their favorite college sports team apparel on Tuesday for College Day. Western Day was the focus for Wednesday, and Hawaiian Day took place on Thursday. For Color War Day on Friday, the four grade levels at AHS competed to show their school spirit by wearing the colors assigned to their classes. For this year’s Homecoming Parade on Wednesday, Oct. 16, AHS DECA students picked the theme of “Bright Lights, Big City” for the floats. Once the theme was established, a single student team of nearly half a dozen kids from the Leadership class coordinated

the Spirit Week activities. This student team created big city themes for each of the class floats. The senior class was assigned Seattle, and included the well-known Space Needle in its imagery, while the junior class recreated the London Bridge for their London theme. “Paris, the City of Love” was covered by the sophomore class, and the freshman class took on New York City, by featuring their representation of the Radio City Music Hall dancers. The officers for each class took on the coordination of building their respective floats under the direction of their class advisors, but all students were welcome to participate in the creation of the floats, as well as in the parade itself. Adult volunteers drove their fancy polished cars with the Homecoming Court, who were dressed in their tuxes and gowns as part of the parade. The court was joined by the AHS Marching Band and Drama Club — the latter carrying signs to promote their play “The Diary of Anne Frank” — as well as the AHS Air Force Junior ROTC and the trucks carrying the AHS football players.

Putnam retires after three decades of service

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

Arlington Fly-In since 1994, as she deemed Putnam “a lifetime friend of the FlyIn,” entitled to free access for himself and his family, in recognition of his work on behalf of the Fly-In and the Arlington Airport since he became Airport Manager in 1999. Even when she shifted back to speaking as mayor of Arlington, Tolbert praised Putnam for his fairness and thoughtfulness in taking care to ensure that any course of action served the

parks, facilities, equipment and airport departments, which led to him serving as Airport Supervisor from 1992-99, before he was officially promoted to Airport Manager. Putnam has witnessed the revitalization of downtown Arlington, the development of the airport’s flightline, and the arrival of not only hundreds more planes, but also corporate hangars. Among the highlights of Putnam’s tenure at the airport cited by city officials were his establishment of an aggressive pavement preservation program, and his successful negotiations not only with a tenant to occupy and make improvements to the old Navy hangar, but also of a number of long-term land leases. “The best part of it, though, has been all the nice people I’ve met and worked with,” Putnam said. “The challenges of it were fun too.

It was never the same job. There was always something new.” With Putnam’s retirement, the airport department is being reorganized, and combined with the city’s community and economic development department, both of which will fall under the purview of Community and Economic Development

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

best interests of everyone involved, from the city and the airport, to the tenant recreational and business pilots who use the airport, to the point that she laughed and joked that she wouldn’t accept his resignation. “I’ve watched you negotiate incredible deals and develop an absolutely solid relationship with the FAA,” Tolbert said. “With nearly 33 years of working for the city of Arlington, no one could doubt where your heart is. You understand our city as a whole, and you’ve invested in your staff like few managers I’ve known. So even after you retire, I’m asking you to stay in town, because we’ll probably be calling on your wisdom.” Putnam himself still recalls how he started out driving a garbage truck for the city in 1981, before he was promoted to a parks department of one. Eventually, he found himself working in the city’s

HiJinx Carnival treats kids to Halloween fun

LAKEWOOD — The Lakewood School District doesn’t want their grade school kids to be left out of the seasonal fun on the weekend before Halloween, which is why Lakewood Elementary, English Crossing Elementary and Cougar Creek Elementary have come together again to stage the annual HiJinx Carnival from 6-8 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 26, in the gymnasium of Lakewood High School. David Campbell, president of the English Crossing Elementary PTA, explained that local PTAs put on this fall carnival for all the families in the Lakewood School District and the surrounding community. “Our main focus is to provide the students of our schools the chance to come together, in a spirit of friendship and community,

in a safe environment for kids,” Campbell said. “Since we encourage each of the kids to come in costume, we’ve arranged for a few local family photographers to capture this moment. The Lakewood High School Drama Department has also agreed to give us a great time of spooky stories throughout the night.” These new features will complement familiar favorites such as games, bouncy houses, raffles and a cake walk, all of which are administered by PTA members and volunteers to whom Campbell expressed his appreciation. “HiJinx is a great carnival that is completely volunteerrun,” Campbell said. “While the PTA is a main sponsor of the event, we recruit local individuals, businesses and other groups to help out with the event, and we always encourage groups and clubs from the high

school and middle school to come by and pitch in. The football team, the cheerleaders, Drama and Honor Society, just to name a few, help run our games, paint faces and generally support the elementary school kids.” According to Campbell, a yearly average of 30 adult volunteers are required to set up and tear down the staging for the event, but the majority of volunteers come from high school groups. “Those students really fill each of the booths and help the younger students have a great time,” Campbell said. This year, Lakewood Elementary PTA President Julane Urie suggested a costume exchange, which took place at her school on Tuesday, Oct. 22, and marked the first “Give a Costume, Take a Costume” event for the Lakewood School District. “It was a huge success,” Campbell said. “Anyone

with school-age kids probably has a few boxes of costumes from years past that are still in great condition, but are too small for their own kids to wear another year. For many families, these costumes are worn only once, then put into storage, so this was a great way for everyone to get the chance to try a different costume without spending any cash at all.” Especially in light of the country’s ongoing economic troubles, Campbell acknowledged that a number of families in the Lakewood School District might not otherwise be able to furnish their children with Halloween costumes. “We really hope that this

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

Although the fall can often turn into a mad dash between various school sports and extracurricular activities, Campbell hopes the community will take the time to treat themselves to one of the largest volunteerrun events presented by local PTAs throughout the year. “Halloween is a holiday that parents and students should try and fit into their busy schedules,” Campbell said. “By encouraging appropriate costumes for all of our families, we hope to allow parents and their children a chance to enjoy this event and celebrate the season.” Lakewood High School is located at 17023 11th Ave. NE in Arlington.

Marysville church gets into coffee business to help others

MARYSVILLE — Allen Creek Community Church’s Community Center now boasts a drive-thru coffee stand as an income-producing endeavor, with 100 percent of the profits from the stand, located in historic downtown Marysville, going to help finance socially conscious programs. Allen Creek Community Church has purchased the Carabinieri Bar, one of the first drive-thru coffee

stands established in Marysville, back in 1994. “Most churches depend solely on the direct charitable contributions of their members to support their church activities, but AC3 takes the innovative approach of ‘Business as Mission,’” said Dan Hazen, executive pastor of Allen Creek Community Church. “Profits from the business are used to support community-oriented programs, including our food

bank, serving more than 1,000 families a month, as well as a cooperative organic farm, youth education, life skills training and more.” A second location in the Allen Creek Community Church lobby serves as a small-scale music and art venue. “In our town, at this time, supporting the arts is just as compassionate as operating our food bank,” Hazen said. “We hope to expand

and increase our support of local art, as well as providing secure, living-wage jobs, and leveraging profit to meet the needs of our neighbors, rather than just padding shareholder bank accounts.” “The Carabinieri Bar provides an opportunity to enjoy great coffee, while at the same time contributing toward the provision of food, clothing, employment training and other important services for those in need

right here in Marysville,” Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring said. “Part of being a missional business means staying locally focused, using local vendors, local and seasonal ingredients, and employees from right here in our neighborhood,” Hazen said. More information about the Carabinieri Bar, Allen Creek Community Church and its Community Center can be found online at www.ac3.org/cc.

Name: Oscar Animal ID: 21283166 Breed: Dachshund, Standard Smooth Haired/Purebred Age: 1 year 4 days Gender: Male Color: Brown Size: Small Spayed/Neutered: Yes Oscar is a youngster, just a year old, and looking for a home where he can go for daily walks and be kept on a regular schedule to help him with housetraining. His new home should be adult only or have dog savvy children over the age of 8. He gets very nervous meeting new people, loud noises, and other dogs so his new home should be committed to taking him to experience new things so that he can be more comfortable with them.
