Fly-In offers something for everyone BY ADAM RUDNICK arudnick@arlingtontimes.com

ARLINGTON — For more than 40 years pilots and community members have gathered at the Arlington Municipal Airport for an annual tradition. What once began as a weigh station stop for pilots on their way north to Canada has now become one of the largest recreational fly-in events in the United States. “It’s really grown into what it is today,” said Barbara Tolbert, executive director of the Arlington Fly-In, a five-day event featuring everything from airplane and military vehicle demonstrations to hot-air balloon shows. “During these five days, we have three times as many people as the entire city of Arlington come through here.” This year’s event will take place July 7-11. Gates open from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Wednesday, July

7 and Thursday, July 8; 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Friday, July 9 and Saturday, July 10; and from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Sunday, July 11. Admission for adults is $15 per day on Wednesday and Thursday, $18 per day on Friday-Sunday or $40 for a weekly pass. What makes the fly-in unique — hence its name — is how pilots from across the country bring their aircraft to Arlington. Admission for planes is $10, $12 and $20, respectively. All children age 15 and under are free. New to this year’s fly-in is a homemade “barnstormer’s barn,” a structure built to house a handful of vintage, preWorld War II planes. The barn project began last October, and was funded and constructed completely by volunteers. Tolbert said that back in the 1920s and '30s, pilots would stash airplanes in barns and sell

rides to people. But it won’t be just planes in the barn — organizers will also have classic cars paired with each of the planes. Those vehicles will change each day, offering attendees an opportunity to see a variety of historical machines. “Car enthusiasts love seeing their cars photographed with planes of that era,” Tolbert said. Also new for 2010 is a series of World War II speakers’ forums. Authors and speakers include Arlington resident Art Unruh, a waist gunner for the U.S. Army Air Corps’ 15th Army Air Force during the war, and teenager Nicholas Rider, who wrote his book, “America’s Great Heroes,” at age 13. A U.S. Navy F-22 jet simulator will also be on hand during this year’s fly-in for attendees to see what it would be like to take to the sky in one of the world’s greatest fighter planes.

The annual Arlington Fly-In allows attendees to see a variety of vintage airplanes on the ground and in the sky. “I’m sure it will have long lines,” Tolbert said. In addition to the multitude of aircraft on display at the event, each night organizers will offer military and airplanethemed movies for folks of all ages, as well as a beer garden for adults aged 21 and up. Movies will be free but

will require food bank donations. Tolbert said the event has something for everybody. “It’s like a fair — it’s a really good environment,” she said. “It’s a week where everybody’s passion comes out and is shared. There’s a good mix of people and com-

ponents.” About 1,200 airplanes flew in to last year’s event — up from approximately 1,000 in 2008. More than 570 volunteers put on the Arlington Fly-In. For more information, visit www.arlingtonflyin. org.

2010 Arlington Street Fair & Fly In

Street Fair features more than 100 vendors BY ADAM RUDNICK arudnick@arlingtontimes.com

ARLINGTON — Whether it’s watching performing pigs or shopping from local vendors, attendees of this year’s Arlington Street Fair will have plenty to see and do. “It’s something for everybody,” said Kara Keating, entertainment coordinator of this year’s annual fair. “Not only do people come here for the vendors, they come here for entertainment. We’ve had people from all over the country come in from the (Arlington) Fly-In.” More than 100 vendors and about 20 performers will take to the streets during the fair, which takes place on North Olympic Avenue. Most performances will occur at Legion Park on the south side of Olympic. This year’s street fair runs from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Friday, July 9 and Saturday, July 10. As usual, it features two main components — entertainment and shopping. Friday’s entertainment schedule is made up mostly of

musical acts. Starting at 2:30 p.m., bands Right Your Wrongs, Cat From Hue and solo singer and guitarist Mackenzie Gregg are scheduled to perform. Additionally, Arlington-based Northwest Dance & Acro will do a ribbon dance. At 6 p.m, organizers will offer residents a dog parade for the second year. Keating said that last year between 50-75 people showed up with their dogs dressed up. Prizes will again be awarded in various categories A local spin on a national Fox television show takes place at 7 p.m., as Arlington Idol takes center stage. The event, which is sponsored by Movement Arts and Denton Massage School, is held each year and contains two divisions — children 8-12 and adults 13 and up. Cash prizes are $50 and $100, respectively. Performances continue on Saturday morning with a multitude of dance shows. Belly dancers, jazz dancers and Tahitian dancers will show street fair attendees what

More than 100 vendors will again be on hand for this year’s event, which takes place July 9-10. they’ve got during a handful of shows, while some of the more unique shows begin later that afternoon. Starting at 1 p.m., Valentines Performing Pigs will be jumping through hoops and doing a number of “wonderful things,” Keating said.

“They’ve been a big hit,” she said. On the shopping side, Julie Tate, vendor organizer and Downtown Arlington Business Association treasurer, said community members will mostly see three categories of merchants — arts and crafts,

commercial and food. There will again be a shuttle from the Arlington Municipal Airport to the street fair so that fly-in attendees can take the trip to downtown Arlington. “It’s just going to be lots of fun for the whole family,” Tate said.

Runners get set for last year’s Walk & Roll Run to benefit Eagle Wings, an Arlington Runners Club race.

Arlington Runners Club helps local charities BY TRAVIS SHERER sports@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — A pair of races are set to highlight Pioneer Days, and with good cause. Put on by the Arlington Runners Club, the Rivers for Rails Run and the Airport Run for Hope! Race were selected because they support local charities. “We wanted to do fundraisers for local causes when we started these races,” said runners club president Jon Hatfield. In fact, the runners club has been organizing four charity races each year since 2006 for local causes. The next up is the Rivers and Rails Run, which supports the Cocoon House, an organization that fosters personal growth and healthy relationships for homeless youth and their families. “That was nice to find that charity because there isn’t a lot of local support for underprivileged children out there,” Hatfield said.

The race, which begins at 9 a.m., Aug. 7, is both a 5K and 10K that starts at Haller Park. The 5K runners turn back at the Pioneer Museum while the 10K runners turnaround at Gleneagle Golf Course back to the finish line at Haller Park. “It’s basically a down and back course along the old railroad track and on part of Centennial Trail,” Hatfield said. The next race will be the Airport Run for Hope! Race, which benefits Housing Hope, an organization that provides low-income housing for families in Snohomish County. The race, set for 9 a.m., Sept. 25, begins at the Stillaguamish Athletic Club and runs on a loop around the Arlington Airport. “That course is more like a cross country course, and it’s my favorite,” said Hatfield. The other two runs the club organizes are the Marines Toys for Tots run in December and the Walk & Roll Run to benefit Eagle Wings, an

organization that helps those with disabilities. “It’s a nice blend (of charities),” Hatfield said. “Because our runs help out several elements of our community. We get to help a wide variety of people.” While there are a number of locals that come to race, Hatfield said that the club gets runners from all over the state and beyond. But for most, it depends on which benefit the race is for. “The different races attract a wide variety of runners, because each charity has a following, but we also get a lot of runners from out of our are because our runs are small, and well organized, I’m told,” Hatfield said. Hatfield said the runs generate roughly $2,000 per charity each year and the field consists of anywhere between 100 and 175 runners. There are roughly 25 volunteers to facilitate each race, which can depend on how much of the track is on or next to a roadway.

ARLINGTON HEIGHTS — The Stillaguamish Festival of the River and pow wow will return to the River Meadows County Park, located at 20416 Jordan Road in Arlington, for the 21st year Aug. 14-15. Last year, more than 11,000 attendees joined the Festival in its “fresh start,” which included a greater focus on its pow wow and increased participation from Stillaguamish Tribal members. “We’ve got a wide variety of dancers and drummers here, from more than 150 different tribes,” Arnold Little Head said at last year’s pow wow, which ran from Aug. 8-9. Little Head, a Sioux Indian living in Portland, Ore., has served as the Festival’s pow wow announcer for several years, and listed the participants’ locations of origin as including Canada, Oregon, California, Idaho, Montana, Utah, Arizona, Oklahoma and the Great Lakes region. “This is one of the biggest pow wows since I’ve started here,” Little Head said. “It’s

traditional, you don’t have to compete, and you can dance, share some food and a few laughs, and enjoy each other’s company. The Stillaguamish people always treat us really well, and make sure that everyone leaves with a little something, to show their appreciation.” Another feature that’s set to return is the Stillaguamish Tribe’s host of cultural exhibits. Last year’s cultural resources tent added exhibits on carving, weaving and drum-making, and featured a hands-on informational display on the Tribe’s bison herd. Attendees were able to peruse displays of stone tools, grasses that were woven into baskets, and cedar that on-site demonstrators were carving into toy rattles and miniature paddles, and weaving into crowns for the pow wow princesses. “This lets people see how much craft its takes to make these things,” Stillaguamish Tribe Fisheries Manager Shawn Yanity said. “We want people to see that this was what sustained us, and was part of our everyday lives.

When the carvers and weavers got together, it was a time of fellowship and carrying on tradition.” In addition to highlighting tribal culture, the Festival aims to educate those who live and work in the Stillaguamish Watershed and its surrounding regions about how they can do their parts to improve their environment for humans, fish and other wildlife alike. Informational booths on water quality, salmon habitat and the watershed as a whole will share space with a giant turtle-shaped storytelling tent, interpretive salmon habitat tours, arts and craft vendors, and a salmon steak barbecue prepared by the Stillaguamish Tribe. For those interested in the environment, groups such as the Sarvey Wildlife Center will present wild birds including eagles, hawks and owls. For children who want to play, educational games and craft activities will be available. For those hoping to maintain or improve their health, the Stilly Fun Run 5K Foot Race starts at 9 a.m., Aug. 14, and

wellness exhibits will be available on-site throughout the rest of the Festival. For adults looking for entertainment, crosscut saw competitions and a variety of live music will be performed. This year’s onstage lineup features the Neville Brothers and Jake Owen. Attendees should not expect any ATMs on-site, and should also expect very limited cell phone service. Admission is free, but parking is $5 per car, per day. Attendees are welcome to bring their own chairs and picnic items, but alcohol and drugs are not permitted. Dogs are permitted on leashes and with waste bags in tow. No public camping will be available in the park Aug. 14-15, since it will be full with Festival vendors and exhibitors Gates open at 10 a.m. both days. The children’s and informational booths will close at 6 p.m., although vendors may stay open later. The salmon bake will close at 8 p.m. or when the fish runs out.

Car shows coming to Arlington BY ADAM RUDNICK

Open 7 Days a Week!

ARLINGTON — Car enthusiasts can look to Arlington to get their automotive salivary glands going this summer. Not one, but two car shows — one spotlighting slammed mini-trucks and sport compact cars and the other focusing on classic hot rods and muscle cars — will be available for motor heads and their families to check out. The Sittin Pretti “Summer Slam” car show will again be coming to the Arlington Municipal Airport on Aug. 21. The show, organized in part by Sittin Pretti President Shawn Altermott, who grew up in Marysville, saw about 200 vehicles and between 400-500 spectators last year. “It’s a great location, with plenty of room for us to expand,” Altermott said. “You couldn’t ask for any better.” Sittin Pretti is a mini-truck club based out of Seattle. In addition to the Arlington event, the organization hosts car shows in California and Oregon throughout the summer. The Arlington show runs from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the airport’s west entrance. Proceeds from the event benefit the Arlington Boys & Girls Club. Car owners can pre-register their rides by visiting www.sittinpretti.com. On Sept. 11, car buffs will be able to check out the seventh annual Drag Strip

The car show, which also takes place at the airport, has grown from about 250 automobiles in 2004 to roughly 600 vehicles in 2009. Cars typically range from contemporary to custom-made at the all-day show. Proceeds from the event also go toward the Boys & Girls Club and other local nonprofit organizations, said Bill Kinney, car show organizer and director of the Boys & Girls Club. Kinney said that this year’s show will celebrate longtime drag racer Herb

McNutt, who passed away at age 74 in 2009. McNutt was influential in getting the Drag Strip Reunion and Car Show going seven years ago, Kinney said. “He was the track manager here in the 1960s,” he said. “He was one of those guys that where he goes, everybody follows.” The Drag Strip Reunion and Car Show will go from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Cost for entrants into the show will be $20 in advance, $25 on the day of show. There will be a $3 entrance fee for spectators.

Art show moves to Legion Park

KIRK BOXLEITNER

kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — The Arlington Arts Council’s “Art at the Plant Farm” show is moving to be a bit closer to its community. As such, this year marks the first “Art in the Park” show, Sept. 11-12 in Legion Park, which event chair Roberta Baker expects could attract as much as 50 area artists, if not more. “We’ll have a basket lady and a gentleman who makes water spritzers for your lawn out of glass and copper, both coming from Bothell,” Baker said. “We also have a lady who works with leaded glass in Marysville who should be appearing. We’ll have a lot of new people who have never been to our annual art show before. It’s good to get new people involved.” This year’s art show will take advantage of its venue by having musicians perform in the Legion Park pavilion both days. On Sept. 11, local ensemble Impulse Latino will be playing Puerto Rican, Cuban and South American music from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., after which local flutist Paul Nyenhuis will return to

“We’re making use of these beautiful park surroundings to make this art show a part of Arlington.” Roberta Baker Art in the Park Chair the art show from 1:30-2 p.m. and from 3-5 p.m. Sept. 12 will bring performances of 1940s, ‘50s and ‘60s favorites by Stan Shipley on his portable keyboard from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., followed by jazz standards from Tony Magno on his trumpet and flugelhorn from 2-4 p.m. The hour-long break in the music on Sept. 11 will give the art show time to conduct an artists’ reception from 2-3 p.m., to give the community a chance to get acquainted with the artists whose work will appear at the Arlington Arts Council’s Oct. 16 auction at the Medallion Hotel, at 16710 Smokey Point Blvd. in Smokey Point. Tickets for the auction will go for $35 each and be sold at Flowers By George, at 335 N. Olympic Ave. in Arlington, and Brushstrokes Art Supply, at 3704 172nd St. NE in Smokey Point, and proceeds will support the

purchase of art for the city of Arlington. “I understand that this year’s art show is a bit of a transition, from the Plant Farm to the Park, but I hope it goes over big,” Baker said. “We’re making use of these beautiful park surroundings to make this art show a part of Arlington.” In the meantime, the Arlington Arts Council hopes to bring 20-30 artists to the Biringer Farm, at 21524 59th Ave. NE in Arlington, July 24-25 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. both days, in conjunction with the “Red Rooster” event. “We have 10 artists lined up for that now, so that’s not bad,” said Baker, who noted that admission to the Biringer Farm art show is free. Baker encouraged artists who are interested in taking part in either art show to call her at 360474-8576. “The more the merrier,” Baker said.
