MARYSVILLE — Compacting all the plays of one of the most acclaimed writers in his-tory into a total running time of less than two hours would be a challenge for any company, much less one made of up of nine students, but if there’s one thing that the actors of the Marysville-Pilchuck High School POC Drama Club are not short on, it’s energy.

“The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged)” kicked off with evening perfor-mances in the M-PHS auditorium on Nov. 3, 4 and 5, and continues its run on Nov. 10, 11 and 12, starting at 7:30 p.m. on these days.

MARYSVILLE — Marysville city officials are crediting a drop in reported crime rates over last year to a police force that’s rede-ployed its resources and focused on analyzing and responding proactively to crime.

Although the city’s popu-lation has increased over the years, this year had only 36 crimes reported per 1,000 residents, a decline from last year’s 45 crimes reported per 1,000 residents, which

adds up to a 15 percent decline in crime from last year’s reported rates through August. The sharpest drops were in vandalism and malicious mischief, which went from 604 reported cases in 2010 to 439 in 2011, and theft, which went from 1,103 reported cases in 2010 to 902 in 2011.

Klementsen, and at least three versions of “Hamlet” — cast members also echoed the sentiment that the close working relation-ships they’ve developed during the production have made that hard work worth-while.

“We’ve all bonded and gotten along really well,” Sorensen said.

“We’re a dysfunctional family,” laughed junior Zach Wells. “We joke around and get hyper.”

Cast members laughed again as they admitted that they literally had too many favorite moments to choose

between in this comic con-densation of Shakespeare’s 38 plays, and senior Carly Wilson cited this variety as a strength, in and of itself, of their production.

“We can go from play-ing big guys to soft, sweet little girls,” Wilson said. “We each have so many different parts.”

The audience will also be called upon to play a part, as junior Casandra Gramstad explained that a few attendees will even be brought onstage, while the rest will be expected to make some noise during the performances.

“It should feel like a big frenzy,” said senior Mikko Juan. “It takes a lot of com-

munication, teamwork and fast cues to keep it mov-ing.”

“There’s usually more memorized lines in a play like this,” said freshman Sage Fairbanks. “With this production, though, we have a lot of opportunities to ad lib and improvise.”

Klementsen promised that the farce would make for some memorable nights of theatre.

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

Admission will be $6 for adults and students with-out ASB, and $5 for stu-dents with ASB and senior citizens.

decreases can be attrib-uted to the redeployment of police onto the streets between 2 p.m. to 2 a.m., the highest crime period according to the depart-ment’s crime analysis data, as well as to the four-mem-ber proactive N.I.T.E. team of specialized, swift-action officers. The N.I.T.E. team — whose acronym stands for neighborhood livabil-ity, intelligence and inves-tigations, targeted enforce-ment, and arresting offend-ers and education — served 45 search warrants and 94 arrest warrants through August of this year, and 91 search warrants and 138 arrest warrants through the whole of last year.

“That many warrants is not easy to get,” Smith said. “They use the latest crime-fighting and intelligence-gathering techniques, along with crime analysis data, confidential sources, and information sharing with detectives and patrol offi-cers to deal with criminals where they live.”

The N.I.T.E. team’s pur-view ranges from violent crimes to illegal guns and drugs, and has seen their amounts of heroin seized go from 1,516 grams through the whole of last year to 663 grams through August of this year. At the same time,

Marysville Police Cmdr. Lamoureux acknowledged that methamphetamine abuse appears to have increased over last year, when the N.I.T.E. team seized 197 grams, whereas this year they’ve seized 398 grams through August.

Marysville Police Sgt. Brad Akau of the N.I.T.E. team cited a narcotics bust that was made in the 3800 block of 80th Street NE on the afternoon of Oct. 12 as evidence of the effec-tiveness of the N.I.T.E. team’s approach, which he’d touted at a community forum on illegal drugs the previous evening on Oct. 11. Akau noted that the N.I.T.E. team’s aggressive approach is intended to discourage criminals from operating in Marysville, and added that their efforts are targeted against dealers rather than addicts, many of whom are young people in the community.

“Some of these are kids I’ve coached in youth sports,” Akau said. “We don’t want to punish the addicts. We want to punish the ones that sell to them.”

While the reassignment of patrol shifts to overlap and provide maximum police coverage is a more recent response by the department, Smith started the department’s Crime Analysis Unit back in 2008. Bob Dolhanyk oversees the

division, which includes his fellow trained crime analyst Don Castanares, who provided the statistics in this article. Castanares was hired by the Marysville Police Department in 2008 after retiring from a 20-year career in the Army as a Military Intelligence Analyst and Technical Intelligence Analyst, includ-ing several years as a Senior Security and Intelligence Advisory at Fort Lewis.

“We’re analytical peo-ple who like to figure out puzzles,” Castanares said. “We like math, charts and graphs, and we’re into tech-nology.”

Castanares has applied those skills and interests toward the eradication of graffiti by maintaining a database of “taggers,” with extensive background information on each, from information compiled by Marysville Public Works and the Graffiti Task Force, as well as the city’s Geographical Information Systems mapping staff. Arrested taggers have their mug shot photos, samples of their graffiti and their known associates entered into the database. Graffiti incidents in the city have declined 28 percent from last year’s reported num-bers through September.

“Crime analysis identi-fies, analyzes and proposes solutions to patterns and trends in crime,” Smith. “It’s a great tool that we rely on and use regularly, and our crime analyst is doing an outstanding job.”

Not only have the N.I.T.E. team, Marysville Police detectives and other divisions in the depart-ment utilized this resource, but so can other agen-cies through data-shar-ing, which Lamoureux explained allows law enforcement agencies to draw associations, commu-nications and event analy-sis across jurisdictional boundaries. Castanares has shared his data with the FBI and U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement, which inspired the for-mer agency to approve the “Innocence Lost” task force in Washington that aims to rescue child victims and runaways exploited through child prostitution and sex trafficking.

Castanares and agreed that criminals are often predictable, and drawn to what is familiar, comfort-able and successful.

“Most criminals are crea-tures of habit,” Dolhanyk said. “We count on that. Crime analysis takes advan-tage of this human flaw.”

SMOKEY POINT — The Marysville and Arlington Haggen Food & Pharmacy stores are among those tak-ing part in a month-long food drive to restock the shelves of local food banks in time for the holiday sea-son.

Nonperishable food and cash donations will be col-lected through Nov. 30 for distribution to local food banks by Northwest Harvest, the only non-profit food bank distribu-tor operating statewide in Washington, with a net-work of more than 325 food banks, meal programs and high-need elementary schools.

Northwest Harvest pro-

vides more than 1.6 million meals every month to its network.

Food banks are seeking canned food high in pro-tein, canned fruit, pasta, rice and any other nonper-ishable food items.

Donors also may pur-chase pre-stuffed bags of groceries that include tuna, macaroni and cheese, peaches, chili, green beans and pinto beans for $5 apiece at Haggen Food & Pharmacy stores, or they may make donations at the cash register of $10 or $20.

Requests for assistance at local food banks have been steadily rising over the last several years. Low-income families are also hit hard-

er by higher heating costs during the fall and winter. Many food bank clients are senior citizens or families with children.

“Small donations can add up to make a big difference in our communities,” said Becky Skaggs, spokesper-son for the Haggen Food & Pharmacy stores. “We encourage individuals, organizations and busi-nesses to be generous in helping the hungry.”

To take part, stop by the Arlington Haggen Food & Pharmacy, located at 20115 74th Ave. NE, or the Marysville Haggen Food & Pharmacy, located at 3711 88th St. NE.

MARYSVILLE — This year’s Veterans Day in Marysville will also mark the inauguration of a new com-munity resource, courtesy of Marysville American Legion Post 178.

The Marysville Legion Hall will once again conduct its open house and chili feed on Nov. 11 from noon to 3 p.m., and at 1 p.m., the Legion members will perform a dedication ceremony for the

newly decorated mailbox that will be used throughout the year to collect worn-out American flags for proper disposal.

Post 178 Cmdr. Ken Cage thanked Carmen Brown of AbleMark for decorating the mailbox, which will be placed inside the gate at the post, located at 119 Cedar Ave., to make it easily accessible for the public to deposit their flags when they are no longer

serviceable. “The American Legion

performs a dignified and respectful ceremony to burn American flags that have become too frayed and worn to be useable,” Cage said. “You won’t miss the mailbox’s bright red color. We ask that, if possible, folks who drop off their flags pin stories to them about where those flags were flown and any unusual cir-cumstances about them.”

ARLINGTON — At approximately 12:40 a.m. on Oct. 31, Arlington police received a call from a Gleneagle resident reporting two suspicious males walk-ing the neighborhoods near the Gleneagle Clubhouse. A subsequent check revealed that several unlocked vehi-cles had been entered and numerous items stolen.

Arlington Police arrested two Everett men, ages 37 and 32, for vehicle prowls and booked them into the Snohomish County Jail pending the filing of felo-ny theft and vehicle prowl charges. Arlington Police believe that the vehicles entered by the suspects were

unlocked, and items such as GPS units, medications, checkbooks, CDs, iPods and other items were recovered from the two suspects.

Arlington Police Chief Nelson Beazley credited these arrests in part to the sharp observation of the local citizen who made the call to police

“These thefts were crimes of opportunity,” Beazley said. “We were fortunate that a vigilant neighbor reported the suspicious activity that led to the arrest of these two suspects. The Arlington Police Department reminds all residents to remove any valuables from their vehicle and to lock it. It’s the best

way to deter these types of crimes.”

This case is still under investigation by the Arlington Police Department. If you believe that you were a vic-tim of these crimes, please call 911 for an officer to respond to take a report for this investigation.

MARYSVILLE — The dog ate my summons. I’ll be out of the country. Business is brisk and I’m the only one who can do the work. The boss can’t afford to lose me for a day or two.

No one likes getting that summons to report for jury duty. Marysville Municipal Court clerks have heard all the reasons for dodging jury duty, or worse, com-pletely ignoring a summons by simply not responding when it comes in the mail.

It’s unfortunate, court officials say, because many people don’t know what they are missing.

“Surveys have found time and again that peo-ple strongly believe that jury duty should be ful-filled, even if inconvenient,” Municipal Judge Fred Gillings said. “Surveys also show that while many have low expectations going into the process, after the fact they appreciate the chance to participate.”

Court Administrator Suzanne Elsner said that’s

reflected in the exit sur-veys the court has their own jurors complete, pull-ing from a random stack of questionnaires. “We get many ‘Thanks for the oppor-tunity to serve’ comments, and others who say that jury duty was not what they were expecting.”

Jury duty is an important feature of civic participation in our democracy, a citizen’s chance to speak for the com-munity, deliberate and make fair decisions in a judicial system that couldn’t function without it, Elsner said.

Not showing up and ignor-ing a summons can have real consequences for court operations, and the individ-ual summoned, Elsner said.

The municipal court a couple months ago sum-moned 50 residents for a six-juror panel. Typically, court officials may excuse 10-15 of these residents for various valid reasons. The court had 14 show up for a six-member jury panel. The low number was too few to enable the city prosecutor and public

defender to exercise their preemptive challenges each can use during jury selection to excuse jurors they believe would not be helpful to their side. As a result, the trial was continued.

This isn’t the first time in Marysville that an under-sized jury pool has brought justice to a halt.

“If you get a summons, we’d appreciate it if you would show up,” she said. “Your service as a juror is very important to us; we will do all we can to make your time with us comfort-able, with the least amount of disruption to your work or obligations at home.”

A jury duty summons is a lawful order of the court directing the citizen to appear; failing to show is considered contempt of court.

The way the system works, jurors are summoned ran-domly two months prior to a trial date and are scheduled at the time of trial. Jurors serv-ing in Marysville Municipal Court must be residents of Marysville or the cities of Arlington or Lake Stevens, both of which contract for court (and jail) services. The court sends a reminder four weeks prior to the trial date to those who have not yet

responded.Those who are eligible

can be excused from jury duty if they have illnesses that would interfere with their ability to do a good job, would suffer unusual hard-ship if required to serve, or are unable to serve for other legitimate reasons.

Jury trials typically run one or two days, Elsner said. Courts in recent years have also tried to make the pro-cess more interactive for jurors in the cases they hear. For example, Marysville’s court now permits jurors to take notes.

Elsner mentioned that in many instances, cases are

settled before they wind up going to trial. Jurors are paid $10 a day plus mileage reimbursement.

The court’s two judges, Fred Gillings and Lorrie Towers, hear criminal cases including assault, domestic violence, driving under the influence, non-felony thefts and other various gross mis-demeanors, misdemeanors and infractions. Judges in Marysville are elected posi-tions.

For people who are curi-ous to see the judicial pro-cess in action, Gillings said that hearings are open to the public and invites inter-ested people and commu-

nity groups to come and watch a trial.

“Jury trials are an impor-tant civic function at the courthouse,” the Judge said. “Without it, we couldn’t do the court’s business.”

Marysville Municipal Court is located at 1015 State Ave. and its phone number is 360-363-8050. It is open 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., with a daily lunch hour closure from 11:50 a.m. to 12:20 p.m.

The rich rewards of diversity never cease to amaze me. When

we engage fully with people who experience the world dif-ferently than we do, we can expect to be inspired. Two sto-ries came across my desk this week that illustrate the point.

The first is about a couple in Everett who, according to newspaper reports, celebrated their recent wedding by invit-ing nearly 50 people with developmental disabilities to serve as bridesmaids, grooms-men, flower girls, and so on.

“Why wouldn’t a bride want people in her wedding who are examples of love, patience and compassion,” the bride was quoted as saying. Having loved and nurtured a daugh-ter with severe disabilities until she died tragically of her condition several years ago at age 11, the bride has come to know something about human value.

“People with disabilities, they know how to love, and they know how to forgive, and they know how to suffer,” she told a reporter. “They were my teachers.”

Not that everything about the wedding was easy or soci-ety page material. “I know that someone will have a meltdown and someone will drool, and that’s OK,” she said recently. “Someone will know that they are loved because they weren’t shushed or left at home for the big occasion.” There was even uncertainty at the church where the wedding took place, despite the best intentions of everyone involved and an out-pouring of material support. “It’s good for our congrega-tion to be exposed to different

people. When something is unknown, it’s a little intimi-dating,” the pastor said. “As I got to know these families, I realized their kids are normal. They want to sing, they want to play.” Exactly. Normal, except that they know how to love and forgive in a way that inspires and enriches the rest of us.

The second story involves a woman who has worked her way up through a variety of training programs and was recently promoted to a new position in a local manu-facturing company. Like the pastor mentioned in the pre-vious story, when something is unknown it can be a little intimidating. But the other employees seemed to accept Hannah for the dedicated worker she is and to forgive any little idiosyncrasies associ-ated with her developmental condition — including the lunches she took from the lunchroom and then returned with apologies. (Among other things, Hannah is subject to an involuntary eating disor-der).

Now it turns out that Hannah has developed a seri-ous new medical condition that surgery and aggressive medication have so far been unable to correct. Her ability to continue working is now

Teaching us

Two district-wide ini-tiatives, Professional Learning Communities

and a Guaranteed and Viable Curriculum, are changing the way we work with one another in the Arlington School District and strengthening our professional practice.

As educators, teamwork is not new to our profession. We have worked in teams for years, includ-ing teams to make curricular recommendations; teams to plan school events; school improve-ment teams; grade or department teams. A few years ago, great interest grew among our educa-tors around Professional Learning Communities (PLC), a new kind of teamwork. In a Professional Learning Community teamwork is focused on high levels of student learning for all students through teacher collaboration. PLCs use structured protocols around their work, heightening teamwork to focus three “big ideas.”

Idea No. 1: Acknowledgement that our organization exists to ensure that all students learn. When executing this idea, a PLC changes their lens and they exam-ine what students have learned as a result of their teaching. The focus is from “what have I taught?” to “what have my stu-dents learned?”

Idea No. 2: Developing a cul-ture of collaboration. A culture where educators recognize that, in order to meet the goal of learning for all students, they must work in teams. In order to do so, PLCs create structures, a way of doing business with one another. Their collaboration is focused on:

■ The knowledge, skills and dispositions each student must acquire in their grade level or course.

■ The evidence they will gath-er to monitor student learning in a timely manner.

■ How they will provide stu-dents with additional time and support that is timely, directive, and systematic.

■ How they will enrich the learning of students who are already proficient and how they will use evidence of student learn-ing to improve their professional practice.

While a group of teachers working together is not new, what distinguishes a PLC from any other group in our profession is a collective commitment to responding when students don’t learn. In short, the job of a PLC is to focus on learning, to work collaboratively, and to hold one another accountable for the learn-ing of all students.

Idea No. 3: A focus on results: the learning of all students. A PLC focused on results judges their effectiveness based on the achievement of their students by identifying the current level of achievement of their students, working together to improve student achievement, and using periodic monitoring or evidence

that students have learned.When teachers engage in PLCs,

they must agree on learning tar-gets all students need to master to be successful in a given grade or subject matter. Agreeing on these learning targets through the identification of a Guaranteed and Viable Curriculum for the district has helped to focus our PLC conversations. “Guaranteed” here means agreeing on the con-tent to be learned at a specific grade level or subject area and “Viable” means teachers have ade-quate time to teach the content within the allotted instructional time. A Guaranteed and Viable Curriculum does not articulate all the skills students learn in any grade level or subject area. Instead it identifies the “must have” skills all students need.

This is not easy work, but it is essential work. Teachers across the district have embraced these initiatives. Ensuring that all students learn calls on us to con-stantly examine our practices in light of student learning. I don’t know of a more talented staff than we have here in Arlington.

Professional Learning Communities and a Guaranteed and Viable Curriculum provide powerful, real time, professional development and are regarded as promising practices leading to high levels of student achieve-ment.

in question. She is facing the sort of complex and terrifying medical issues that cause the strongest of us to wilt in fear and self-pity. Yet Hannah loves to work and is at her post every day she’s not at the medical center.

Recently the general man-ager noticed a card being passed around discreetly among employ-ees on the shop floor, a common enough workplace ritual. When the card finally reached him, he saw it was a “get well” card for Hannah signed by all of her co-workers. And as he opened the card, $380 fell out onto his desk — a gift of hope, a gift of the heart, a gift of solidarity, a gift that says “we want to do some-thing” for a fellow employee who is one of us, one of the team.

There is something so beautiful about these stories and everyone in them. A beauty born of suf-fering to be sure, a suffering not to be wished on anyone. I read these stories over and over again, feeling (to borrow Joanna Macy’s wonderful phrase) as if I had been “dipped in beauty” by such pure expressions of humanity and love.

Inclusion is not without its challenges as the bride, the pas-tor, and Hannah’s fellow employ-ees can attest. But the rewards are rich in qualities that speak to what it means to be human, qualities that enhance and strengthen any group endeavor from a manufacturing team to a church congregation — or even a wedding party.

Thanks for supporting Dollars for Scholars

In his novel “Jayber Crow,” author Wendell Berry describes the many elements of daily life which, when woven together, form the fabric of small town community. Those who have a little more help those who have a little less; young people learn and practice personal responsibility through the guidance of their elders; and many hands pitch in to guarantee the success of a community project.

Those of us involved with the Arlington Dollars for Scholars Foundation are continu-

ally grateful to the individuals and businesses in our community who never fail to emulate these values.

In these difficult financial times, it’s hard to find sufficient words to express the thanks we feel to the businesses and donors in the Arlington area that helped make our annual Dollars for Scholars Bingo Night fundraiser a success.

All money raised will go toward helping us provide scholarships to many of Arlington School District’s class of 2012 graduates.

The generosity displayed by our businesses and our community serves as a model for our young people to follow as they transition from

adolescence to adulthood.We thank all those who came out to play

Bingo for our scholars and we especially thank the following businesses and community lead-ers for helping us assist this year’s senior stu-dents to reach for their dreams: Whitehorse Family Medicine, Arlington School of Dance, Paraiso Mexican Restaurant, Edward Jones, Skagit State Bank, Union Bank, Flowers by George and Mayor Margaret Larson.

No more, Capricorn. You have done more than your fair share of the work already and it’s time to get others involved. There is no reason for you to take it all on.

It’s pay up time, Aquarius. Fess up and suffer the consequences. A shocking revelation at work throws everyone for a loop. Stay calm and others will, too. Romance quickens.

An immaculate house may be your goal, Pisces, but it may not be practical at this time of year. You may want to rethink your strategies.

Missing pieces of the puzzle begin to be filled in, and boy are you surprised, Aries. A home improvement project finally sees the light of day, and it is not your doing.

Transportation becomes a real issue with new houseguests. Try to be accommodating, Taurus, but don’t go overboard. You have a life and shouldn’t have to make sacrifices.

Lengthy remarks are not your style, Gemini. Some people, however, need further instruction. A blast of cold weather gets the creative juices flowing at home.

Trials and tribulation punctuate the week, Cancer, inspiring you to take it easy over the weekend and do something leisurely. Perhaps a trip to a flea market is in order.

Hastily made travel plans go off without a hitch. Give yourself a pat on the back, Leo. A clean sweep at home uncovers several forgotten items.

Words of encouragement are far and few these days, Virgo. Do your best to see that is changed. A lesson learned at home dramatically improves your outlook.

Finances weigh heavily on your mind, Libra, but there’s no use in crying over spilled milk. What’s done is done. Get over it and move on to more pressing matters.

It’s business as usual at home, Scorpio, and it wouldn’t hurt for you to shake things up a bit. Be clever! The rescue of a friend in trouble requires more help.

Not again, Sagittarius. You’ve been cornered one too many times by an old friend. Invite them over and answer all of their questions once and for all. A memo pleases you.

ARLINGTON — Arlington High School seniors Sara Deeter, Robert Kephart, Jessie Rard and Molly Rard have been named Commended Students in the 2012 National Merit Scholarship Competition.

Approximately 34,000 Commended Students

throughout the nation are being recognized for their exceptional academic promise. Commended Students are in the top 5 percent of more than 1.5 million students who entered the 2012 com-petition by taking the 2010 Preliminary SAT/

National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test.

“Arlington High School is proud to honor four stu-dents this year for such a prestigious and highly com-petitive national program,” AHS Principal Brian Beckley said. “We wish them success in their academic pursuits.”

MARYSVILLE — The City Council on Oct. 24 awarded $140,000 in hotel-motel tour-ism grants that will fund costs associated with the Marysville Strawberry Festival, a new holiday lighting tour at Cedarcrest Golf Course, high school band uniforms and the popular YMCA youth 360 break-dancing competition.

The following projects were recommended by Hotel/Motel Tax Grant Committee and adopted by the City Council:

■ $30,000 to support the Greater Marysville Tulalip Chamber of Chamber of Commerce/Visitor Information Center.

■ $30,000 to the Marysville-Pilchuck High School Band “Color My

World” band uniforms.■ $20,000 toward

Marysville Strawberry Festival “Berrywood” 80th annual festival costs.

■ $12,173 to the Police Department for special event funding.

■ $8,447 to the City Streets Division and $3,297 to the Solid Waste Division for Strawberry Festival-associated funding.

■ $8,155 to the Chamber of Commerce for tourism map project and technology updates.

■ $6,434 to the Marysville Historical Society map resto-ration and preservation.

■ $5,910 for the 2012-13 Marysville/North Snohomish County Visitors Guide.

■ $4,500 for the new holi-

day lighting tour at Cedarcrest Golf Course.

■ $2,500 to Marysville YMCA for the 360 break-dancing competition.

■ $2,000 to Marysville Kiwanis Club for State Avenue streetscape power receptacles.

Councilmembers opted to use the remaining balance of $6,581 in available funds to apply toward design costs for a spray park downtown.

Projects are funded on a reimbursement basis, with awards granted to projects that enhance and promote the city’s tourism market, said Mayor Jon Nehring. The fund is created under state law by a per-bed tax assessed on hotels and other overnight accom-modation establishments.

Marysville awards grants

MARYSVILLE — The Marysville Police and Parks and Recreation departments and Marysville Community Coalition don’t want your holiday season to be ruined by becoming the victim of a crime.

That’s why they’re inviting you to join them for the sec-ond in a new series of free and informative community safe-ty forums. The next forum, “Have a Safe and Crime Free Holiday Season,” will start at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 15, in the Marysville-Pilchuck High School auditorium, located at

5611 108th St. NE.Police will offer preventive

measures on how to protect yourself, your home and your family during the holidays, and how to keep the season merry and crime-free.

“The hustle and bustle of the holiday season is filled with celebration and spend-ing time with family and friends,” Marysville Police Cmdr. Robb Lamoureux said. “Unfortunately, it’s also an opportune time for criminals to target victims who may be distracted by the busy sea-son.”

Forum co-sponsor Marysville Community Coalition is a partnership of caring, involved members committed to promoting safety, diversity and aware-ness, and to responding to the needs of youth, so that every-one who lives in Marysville will take responsibility for working together towards a safe and healthy community.

For more information about MCC and the forum, contact MCC Chair Andrea Kingsford at 360-363-8401 or [email protected].

Forum offers seasonal safety tips

Page 9: Marysville Globe, November 09, 2011

MARYSVILLE — With autumn fast approaching, more and more people in the Marysville area will be enjoying the change of sea-sons and the cooler tem-perature.

Unfortunately, some autumn–related weather activities such as hiking and camping, turning the furnace back on or clean-ing the chimney do present their share of hazards.

To help ensure everyone in the community enjoys a safe autumn, the mem-bers of the Marysville Fire District offer the following tips and suggest you post them where they are likely to be seen by your family members and coworkers.

Heating Equipment:According the National

Fire Protection Association in 2008, heating equip-ment was involved in an estimated 66,100 reported U.S. home structure fires, with associated losses of 480 civilian deaths, 1,660 civilian injuries and $1.1 billion in direct property damage.

These fires accounted for 17 percent of all report-ed home fires. Chimney maintenance is vital to your family’s safety as 14 percent of all home fires are started by heating equipment.

■ Have your chimney inspected and cleaned on a regular basis. These items should be inspected annu-ally by a professional and cleaned as often as the inspections indicate: Wood stoves, fireplaces, chim-

neys, chimney connectors, and all other solid-fueled heating equipment.

Inspect all heating equip-ment annually, and clean as necessary. The leading fac-tor contributing to home heating fires (25 percent) was failure to clean creosote from heating equipment and chimneys (NFPA).

■ When possible, burn seasoned woods (dryness of the wood is more impor-tant than hard wood versus soft wood).

■ Smaller, hotter fires will burn more completely and produce less smoke than larger fires.

■ Do not burn cardboard boxes or trash, as they can spark a chimney fire.

■ Install stovepipe ther-mometers, which help monitor flue temperatures where wood stoves are in use, then adjust burning practices as needed.

■ Space heaters need space. Portable space heat-ers need a three-foot (one meter) clearance from any-thing that can burn and should always be turned off when leaving the room or going to sleep.

Space heaters, wheth-er portable or stationary, accounted for one-third (32 percent) of home heat-ing fires and four out of five (82 percent) of home heat-ing fire deaths (NFPA).

■ When turning a heat-ing device on or off, be careful to follow the man-ufacturer’s instructions. When buying heaters, look for devices with automatic shutoff features.

■ Be sure any gas-fueled heating device is installed with proper attention to ventilation, and, if unvent-ed gas space heaters are used in bedrooms or bath-rooms, they must be small and wall-mounted.

■ Do not use your oven to heat your home.

■ Test smoke alarms monthly; install carbon monoxide alarms.

■ Make sure fuel-burn-ing equipment is vented to the outside, that the venting is kept clear and unobstructed, and that the exit point is properly sealed around the vent, all of which is to make sure deadly carbon monoxide does not build up in the home.

Enjoying the Outdoors:

As you take in the fall’s beautiful scenery, think ahead, be prepared, and stay safe.

■ Check the weather forecast before heading outdoors for a hike. It is not safe to hike when heavy rain, winds, or snow in the mountains is expected.

■ Carry drinking water. Don’t drink from streams, springs, or lakes without first properly treating the water.

■ Observe wildlife from a safe distance. Don’t try and get too close to wild animals.

■ Stay on the trail — if you leave it, you may get lost.

■ To help prevent food

poisoning, keep cold foods cold and hot foods hot. Don’t store perishable foods in a hot car.

■ Clean all surfaces and utensils that come into contact with raw meat or meat juices before re-using them.

■ Wash hands frequently when preparing food, and before serving and eating.

■ Keep kids away from grills and lighter fluid, and keep grills away from any-thing that can burn them.

■ Be aware of tiny para-sites that carry disease and know which symptoms to watch out for. When in a potentially infested area, apply insect repellent, wear light colored, long-sleeved shirts, pants, and socks.

■ Do not build a fire near tree trunks, fallen trees, or over hanging branches.

■ When extinguishing a campfire, let it die down, then break up the coals or logs, spread the pieces, soak them with water, and then cover the area with dirt or sand.

For School:Parents must do some

homework to keep their kids healthy and safe. Don’t let safety “fall” by the way-side.

■ Walk and ride to school safely. Obey traf-fic lights and signals, walk only in crosswalks, and lis-ten to the crossing guard.

■ If your kids bike to school, be sure they wear a helmet.

■ If possible, always walk your child to the bus

stop and pick them up as well.

■ Keep backpacks light — a child’s backpack should only be 5 percent to 10 percent of his or her body weight, according to the American Chiropractic Association.

■ A backpack with wheels is easy to maneu-ver and reduces back stress. If your child does choose to wear a backpack, utilize both straps. Slinging the backpack over one shoul-der may cause spinal cur-vature.

Fall Clean-Up:Yard work does not end

simply because summer is over. Here are some safety tips for tackling autumn tasks around your home.

■ When lifting heavy bags of mulch, use a wheel-barrow when possible, and remember to lift with your legs, not with your back.

■ Be careful when prun-ing. Pruning from a ladder is especially dangerous.

■ To avoid blisters when doing yard work, wear gloves.

■ If you are doing a lot

of raking, try an ergonomic rake, which can be found at most hardware stores and garden centers.

Pet Safety:Watch out for family pets

as you prepare for the cold, festive days of fall.

■ Many brands of anti-freeze are highly toxic. Store new and used antifreeze in a sealed container.

■ Chocolate is a special treat for nearly all humans during Halloween and Thanksgiving, but it is toxic to dogs, cats, and birds.

■ Holiday meals can be hazardous to pets. Chicken and turkey bones can get stuck and pierce the diges-tive tract. Rich foods can cause pancreatitis or bloat-ing.

■ Indoor pets not accli-mated to winter tempera-tures should not be outside in cold weather for long periods. Outdoor pets can withstand fairly cold tem-peratures, but make sure they have proper shelter from wind and rain, and provide them with good bedding. Frostbite is a win-ter hazard to pets.

MARYSVILLE — Lakewood, Marysville Getchell and Arlington trav-eled to their respective cross country regional champion-ships on Oct. 29.

The Cougars and Chargers traveled to the District 1 2A and 3A Regionals at South Whidbey High School. The Eagles competed in the 4A Districts at Lincoln Park in Seattle.

But Getchell was at South Whidbey to honor the memory of Juan Mendoza, the Charger student and soccer player lost to an Oct. 24 car accident.

The Charger boys ran 200 yards behind the last runner in their 5k race and stopped before the final 300-meter stretch to put on memorial T-shirts read-ing “Win it for Juan” on the front and “Drive safe” on the back. They walked hand-in-hand and crossed the finish line together to the applause of everyone in attendance. The girls team, also dressed in the

T-shirts, met the boys to walk the final 100 meters with them.

“You’re a class act,” someone yelled from the stadium crowd.

The boys met cross coun-try coach Randy Edens for a mass hug and did the same with the girls team. The Everett High School team approached the Getchell runners with a card and exchanged hugs with a few of the runners.

Lakewood sent only seniors Kris Mugrage (9th place at 16:44.02) and Rachel Cundy (eighth at 20:00.25) to 2A Districts despite fifth-place finishes from both teams.

“This was the first time in at least 27 years that one of the boys and girls teams didn’t advance to State,” Lakewood cross country coach Jeff Sowards said. “I’m confident we will chal-lenge for the top spots in the state next year. Rachel is proud to represent Lakewood High School, but she wishes the rest of the team could be there.”

The Getchell girls fin-

ished fourth and only junior Rachael Lefstad moved on to 3A Districts with a seventh-place finish in her 5k race.

“It’s a little disappoint-ing to finish fourth, but it was still a good show-ing,” Getchell cross country coach Randy Edens said of his girls team from which only Alissa Belan graduates this year. “It’s been a really solid year for a first-year program — it should be fun next year.”

Arlington’s 4A boys fin-ished 16th in their 4A 5k race to miss the District cut.

“The kids we ran against are probably going to place in the top 30 in the state,” Arlington cross country coach Mike Shierk said. “(The KingCo Conference competition) was extremely tough for our young groups without a lot of senior expe-rience. If Jared (Alskog) had run a 16:39.00 (his Oct. 29 time) at South Whidbey last year, he would have gone to State at 15th. (2010 graduate) Jared Clark ran a 16:39 last year and made

State at 24th.”The Eagle girls finished

16th in their race as well.“(Junior) CJ (Taylor) ran

her fastest time all season

(20:16.00), but placed 48th in the girls’ race,” Shierk said. “We were not in the race from the get-go.”

Mugrage, Cundy and

Lefstad will compete in the Washington State Cross Country Championships at Sun Willow Golf Course in Pasco on Nov. 5.

MARYSVILLE — Marysville-Pilchuck and Marysville Getchell’s combo JV teams looked to make waves this year when they hosted the Wesco North 3A Junior Varsity Championships on Oct. 27.

M-P finished seventh with 75 points and Getchell placed 11th of 11 competing schools with 29, but the team point totals did not rep-resent the Tomahawk and Charger swimmers’ individual efforts.

“(M-P sophomore) Sarah Hagberg absolutely rocked it,” M-P and Getchell coach Jaci LeGore Hodgins said. “She swam at a varsi-ty level in the shortest (50 free) and longest (500 free) race. Looking at her end it like that, it was like ‘Oh my gosh, what do we have to look forward to?’ She was the MVP of the meet.”

M-P’s A relay squad ranked 14th in the 200-yard medley relay, in which Tomahawk junior Katelyn Lawton (43.91 seconds), fresh-man Lynette Malavolti (47.04), senior Cherish Broker (41.28) and Hagberg (30.49) took a total time of 2:42.72. The Tomahawk B

team of freshmen Elana Whorton (46.99), Ashelyn Lawton (50.61), Lisa Fuller (37.03) and senior Jen Campbell (37.84) placed 20th at 2:52.47. Sophomores Brandi Ball (44.92) and Jacquelyn Martin (47.21) and freshmen Sammy Edmonson (54.53) and Tarynnie Dockstader (32.81) of Getchell’s A team finished 22nd of 27 teams at 2:59.47.

Getchell and M-P swimmers performed similarly in the 200-yard freestyle — Ball ranked 20th at 3:07.71, Edmonson 22nd at 3:16.31, Whorton at 3:20.63 and Tomahawk freshman Danielle Prunier at 3:27.22.

Hagberg placed fourth in the 50-yard freestyle at 30.26 to lead a pack of five swimmers in the top 30. M-P sophomore Lydia Strough took 12th at 32.57, Malavolti 18th at 33.54, Campbell 27th at 34.53, Ashelyn Lawton in 28th at 34.57 and Prunier 72nd at 39.17.

“Our kids just shredded the 50 free because it’s so fast — just down and back,” LeGore Hodgins said. “We think it’s because their confi-dence has grown so much — you hope that at the end of the season it all comes together, and it did.”

Broker and Scarborough finished eighth and 10th respectively in the one-meter dive competition.

Campbell took fifth in the 100-yard fly with a finish time of 1:30.63, Lisa Fuller 15th at 1:54.59 and Edmonson 16th at 2:07.59.

Ball placed 33rd in the 100-yard freestyle with a time of 1:22.30, Whorton 45th at 1:28.81.

Hagberg impressed again at eighth place in the 500-yard free-style at 7:52.32. Jacquelyn Martin took 14th at 8:45.02, Fuller 17th at 9:18.30.

The Tomahawk 200-yard free-style relay A team of Strough (32.64), Hagberg (30.36), fresh-man Corinne Tubbs (37.36) and sophomore Maddison Stevens (33.65) finished fifth at 2:14.01. Getchell’s A team of Ball (37.87) Edmonson (35.73), Martin (34.38) and Dockstader (35.87) finished ninth at 2:23.85. M-P’s B team of Prunier (41.32), Fuller (39.75), Ashley Lawton (35.74) and Kaetlyn Lawton (37.27) placed 20th at 2:34.08.

Kaetlyn Lawton finished 16th in the next event, the 100-yard back-stroke, at 1:35.14.

Cherish Broker ranked 25th

with a time of 1:38.97 in the 100-yard breaststroke, Malavolti 28th at 1:41.89, Kaetlyn Lawton 29th at 1:42.34, Jacquelyn Martin 35th at 1:49.29 and Ashelyn Lawton 42nd at 1:59.17.

M-P’s 400-yard freestyle A team of Campbell, Whorton, Prunier and Malavolti took 13th at 5:44.95 in the final event of the afternoon.

LeGore Hodgins says that 2011 was just an introduction to her young swimmers — they just keep

getting better.“We should definitely have a

stronger base next year because of this year. The word’s out that we have something special going on. Every kid dropped time in some-thing — it was a great example of how all of our kids trained. Coach Christy Taylor whipped these kids into great shape and they looked so outstanding compared to how they looked a week and a half before (Oct. 18 at Shorecrest).”

JV swim teams make a splash at championships

The Clean Eating movement has swept America.

People are eat-ing healthy foods that are locally grown. Magazines covers shout slo-gans about Clean Eating, and Tosca Reno has probably sold a bazillion “Clean Eating” books. There’s a ton of chatter about how to do it, why people should do it and how to get started. But let me share a secret with you: Eating Clean is common sense work. It’s not rocket science.

When I meet with clients, at each session I always ask “How’s your nutrition?” and before they answer, I know what their answer will be. Facial expressions are a dead giveaway; I can also tell by how long they hesitate before answering my question. I have an excuses-radar the size of Washington state. I’m good.

Anyway, even though I already know the answer to my “How’s your nutrition?” question, I go through the rigmarole by listening, nod-ding and tilting my head (right, clients?). If my client hasn’t eaten “clean,” they gen-erally start by saying some-

thing like: “Well I…” or “It was ok, but…” Most of the clients who begin their dis-cussion of nutrition by saying “Umm … I just …” have com-mitted what I have coined “Dusty Eating”.

Let me define “Dusty Eating” for you.

I can almost guarantee that if you’re a mom, you’re guilty of Dusty Eating. If you are an avid TV watcher, you’re guilty of Dusty Eating. If you cook or bake a lot, or if you sit at a desk most of the day, you may also be a Dusty Eater. Dusty Eating isn’t exactly the oppo-site of Clean Eating, but it definitely sabotages a person’s worthwhile efforts at eating well.

Dusty Eating is eating a little of this, and a little of that. It’s eating clean most of the time, but then finishing your child’s last bite of grilled cheese, or helping yourself to a handful of fishy crackers.

Dusty eating is sampling your creations while you cook, or taking the last helping, just because it’s there. Dusty Eating doesn’t seem all that bad because “it’s only a little bit!,” but truthfully, it’s terrify-ingly damaging because these calories add up quickly.

Take, for example, fruit snacks. The other day, I ate one off my son’s lunch plate, simply because it was there. Out of curiosity, I looked at the nutritional value of the small pack of snacks. Eighty calories per snack pack. Huh. So, again, out of curiosity, I opened a pack of the fruit snacks and counted how many treats were nestled within.

Eight treats per package. That’s all. Eight.

So, one little treat has 10 calories. Now, if I were to do that 10-15 times per day (with a variety of “this” and “that” bites), that would add up to 150 extra, unnecessary calories. And a handful of goldfish could be a bit more expensive than 10 calories. You with me?

Let’s do the math: Over the course of a day, let’s say that you eat an extra and unnec-essary 150 calories. Over the course of a week, that would be an extra 1,050 calories. Over the course of a month that would be an extra 4,200 calories and an extra 50,400 a year. Yikes. And if 3,500 calories equals one pound, could that really mean you

could gain 14.4 pounds in a year? Maybe, depending on how much you exercise, and if you’ve already satisfied your daily intake of calories. Honestly, I’d rather see you eat an entire slice of Mud Pie at Red Robin once a month than Dusty Eat every day for a month. And wouldn’t eating a Mud Pie be more satisfying than four fruit snacks several times a day?

Moral of the story? Knock it off. No more Dusty Eating, got it? This week, I challenge you to keep a food journal, and in it include:

1. What you ate. 2. How much of it you ate. 3. What time you ate it.Keep track of every single

morsel. You won’t have to do this forever, but you will learn a lot about your eating habits and will have information so you can begin changing your Dusty Eating habits and/or the habits that sabotage your Clean Eating efforts.

And let me know how it

works for you. Deal?

LAKEWOOD — Lakewood, the No. 2 seed in the 2A girls soccer play-offs, turned its focus to the consolation bracket after its 4-1, 2A Districts loss to the No. 1 seed and defend-ing state champion Sehome Mariners at Bellingham’s Civic Stadium on Nov. 1.

Sehome’s Emily Webster knocked in two first-half goals, the second with assis-tance from Jessica Bertucci, and Hanna Tarleton added another goal five minutes before halftime to gouge Lakewood for a 3-0 lead.

“We set a goal of reach-

ing the final four, and we knew we’d have to rise to the competition of Sehome and Cedarcrest,” Lakewood coach Jeremiah Wohlgemuth said. “We want to play solid defense and control the ball — if you don’t have the ball, you’ve got 11 defenders and a keeper.”

Cougar Morgan Rettig answered with a goal off of a corner cross five minutes into the second half with junior Ariel Jensen’s help to put Lakewood on the board, but Sehome’s Jessica Bertucci connected for a 59th-minute goal to ice the match.

Sehome took nine shots on goal to Lakewood’s five. Cougar keeper Miranda Head notched five saves on the night.

The result wasn’t ideal for the Cougars, but taking on the top team in the tour-nament is something to be proud of.

“We knew we had to hold them to one or two goals to compete because we’re a low-scoring team,” Wohlgemuth said. “It was fantastic to see the girls fight back and only allow a breakaway goal in the sec-ond half. We’ve established through 16 games (and an 11-3, 13-4-1 record this sea-son) that we can play with the top teams.”

On Nov. 3, Lakewood traveled to Sultan to take on Squalicum with the winner earning a trip to state.

The game remained scoreless until the 32nd minute when Cougar Hailey Duitsman scored off a throw-in by Taylor Studzinski giving the Cougars a 1-0 lead. Neither team was able to score after that and Lakewood earned its third consecutive state berth.

ARLINGTON — Parker Yancey, a 15-year-old Lakewood High School stu-dent, loves to read at and visit the Arlington Library.

He’s visited it so often that, in the midst of planning out his Eagle Scout project for the Boy Scouts of America, he noticed that the grounds of the library were in need of some attention.

With help from his par-ents, Steve and Tanya Yancey of the Seven Lakes area of Stanwood, Parker contacted the city of Arlington and was given the thumbs-up to take on a landscaping proj-ect on the library’s behalf.

Initially, Parker put in 35 hours of work to plan, carry out and report on the project. On Oct. 8, he was joined by 30 generous vol-unteers, who helped him weed the grounds and lay a weed barrier, as well as plant 25 bushes and spread 10

yards of new cedar bark.With the addition of vol-

unteer hours, a total of 135 hours were spent on the project.

The Yancey family expressed their gratitude for the donations this project received from individuals as well as local and regional businesses, including Lowe’s, Nobach Trucking, Winter Trucking and Western Plant Nursery. Parker’s parents

are likewise thrilled with their son’s success.

“When Parker learned that his father was an Eagle Scout, he was inspired by his father’s example and want-ed to be one also,” Tanya Yancey said. “Through the project, Parker learned leadership skills and how to have confidence to ask strangers for information and donations.”

Parker expressed the hope that the community and patrons of the library will appreciate how nice and clean the grounds look now. The Yancey family antici-pates that library-goers will especially love the spring blossoms of the hundreds of flower bulbs that Parker’s group planted.

TULALIP — The Marine Drive Chevron fueling station celebrated its soft opening on the early morning of Nov. 3, as Tulalip Tribal members took part in a blessing cer-emony and reflected on the progress that this business venture represents for their people.

“It’s a symbol of how our Tribes are growing and feed-ing the economy, not just of our base, but on both sides of the freeway,” said Tulalip Tribal Vice Chair Glen Gobin. “It seems to have sprung up overnight. It took 90 days, from start to fin-ish. It’s amazing how every-one came together, working long hours in heavy traffic, to make this happen. That’s great teamwork.”

Tulalip Tribal Board mem-ber Don Hatch Jr. joined Glen Gobin in giving credit to Quil Ceda Village Manager Steve Gobin, among others, for the part he played in making the gas station a reality. Tulalip Tribal Treasurer Chuck James, before he pumped the inau-gural tankful of gas from the station’s pumps, deemed this new gas station yet another step in the Tribes’ economic development.

“When we started look-ing at venues and money-makers to draw customers in, we looked at the casinos back east,” James said. “One of the first things they did

was build gas stations next to them, because then you get the customers who stop and say, ‘Oh, I think I’ll go over here for a while.’ We’ve been blown away by the success of our station at 116th. It was obvious we were going to do a second station, but we looked at this area and said, ‘How the heck do you do this?’”

Fred McDonald, an engineer with Quil Ceda Engineering Services, explained how the Marine Drive Chevron fueling sta-tion’s unique layout benefits its commerce.

“The highest throughput is a triangle, which this site was suited to fit,” McDonald said. “If and when it expands into a new store, it’s designed to funnel its traffic through toward that store and increase its business.”

The Gobins both acknowl-

edged contractor Sabre for working with the Tribal Employment Rights Office to ensure that Tribal mem-bers would be employed by this project, with Glen Gobin adding his thanks to the city of Marysville and Snohomish County for their coopera-tion.

“We finished on time and within our budget,” said Glen Gobin, who also expressed his gratitude to supplier American Energy. “It’s always refreshing to work with someone who buys into the Tribes’ values.”

Puyallup Tribal Council member David Bean visited to take part in the ceremonial drumming and offer his own congratulations.

“I always look to Tulalip as leaders in Indian country,” Bean said. “This is sovereign-ty in motion.”

Tribes open gas station

Tulalip Tribal Treasurer Chuck James pumps the inaugural tankful of gas from the pumps of the Marine Drive Chevron fueling station on Nov. 3.

Last week, our son was involved in a terrible car crash in Marysville. Our thoughts and hearts are with the family who lost their son, and with the other fam-ily whose son is still recovering.

We want to take this opportunity to thank every-one who was involved in helping our son - the wit-nesses who helped at the scene, the firefighters and EMTs from Getchell, Marysville, and Arlington Fire Departments who were involved in the rescue efforts, the pilots, and the doctors and nurses who provided him with the best care possible. There are not enough words to express our gratitude, and we wish we could thank each and every one of you personally.

Additionally, we have been overwhelmed by the outpouring of love, compassion and support that peo-ple both from within and without our community have shown our son. Please know that every prayer, good thought, card, and word of encouragement has helped move him towards further healing. We thank you for caring about our son. We feel so fortunate and proud to be part of the Marysville community.

John and Beth Vavrousek

ThanksSpecial

Arlington American Legion presents Veterans Day parade,

serves meals to vetsARLINGTON — Downtown Arlington

can once again expect a main street parade and a hearty meal for its former and current

service members on Veterans Day.The members of Arlington American

Legion Post 76 will be lining up entrants at 10 a.m. Nov. 11 for their veterans’ parade starting at 11 a.m.

The truck with the World War II and other older veterans has long been a main-stay of the parade, but Arlington Legion members strive to represent every era of veterans in the procession, including Vietnam veterans.

As in previous years, the parade will proceed south on Olympic Avenue and conclude in time for the 1 p.m. dinner at the Post 76 Legion Lounge, located at 115 N. Olympic Ave.

Veterans eat for free, and members of the general public pay $5.

Also, as in years past, a number of older veterans will be honored during the din-ner, and the traditional ceremony honoring missing-in-action military members will once again be conducted.

The dinner is free to all veterans, whether they’re Legion members or not. It’s also one of the few days that members of the general public can hang out in the Post 76 Lounge.

‘The Coal Hard Truth’ forum comes to Marysville on Nov. 17MARYSVILLE — The coming of coal

trains will serve as the subject for “The Coal Hard Truth,” a forum set for Nov. 17 in the Totem Middle School cafeteria.

According to event spokesperson Dan

Klimke, its purpose is to inform the com-munity of the potential impacts of those coal trains, as well as what the community might be able to do about them.

“The coal companies want to put 10-20 more coal trains through Marysville every day,” Klimke said, noting the current state of automobile traffic in Marysville, and how existing train traffic affects it.

The forum runs from 7-8:30 p.m. at 1605 Seventh St. in Marysville. For more informa-tion, Klimke recommended logging onto www.transitionportgardner.com/news.

Marysville YMCA hosts ‘Sweat for a Vet’ fundraiser on Nov. 12

MARYSVILLE — The Marysville YMCA is showing its support for disabled veterans on Nov. 12, the day after Veterans Day, through “Sweat for a Vet.”

The three-hour cardio event will run from 6:30-9:30 a.m. at 6420 60th Dr. NE in Marysville to raise funds for Wounded Warriors, to help provide equipment that will allow disabled veterans to continue their rehabilitation and expand their voca-tional options.

Those who aren’t able to attend this year’s “Sweat for a Vet” event can still sup-port its cause by making a general dona-tion or sponsoring event participants.

To sign up or for more information, call Ronda Hardcastle at 360-651-1605 or log onto www.sweatforavet.kintera.org.

NEWS BRIEFS

SMOKEY POINT — Visitors to the Arlington Walmart on Nov. 19 will be able to “Stuff the Bus” on behalf of the Marysville and Arlington food banks.

As many as 30 volunteers from the Lakewood School District Transportation Department will be collecting food dona-tions from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., as well as hand-ing out fliers to shoppers with suggested food and toiletry items to donate.

“Every day, our drivers see families strug-gling and would like to help,” said Marlene Rosenbach, transportation supervisor for the Lakewood School District. “People can make monetary contributions with checks made out to either the Marysville Community Food Bank or the Arlington Food Bank. We could take a receipt book if anybody donates cash and wants a receipt.”

The Marysville Community Food Bank has requested peanut butter, chicken noodle and cream of mushroom soup, canned evap-orated milk, fruit cocktail, gravy packets, boxed pancake mix, syrup, bags of sugar and flour, strawberry gelatin, eggs, margarine, onions, milk, potatoes, frozen turkeys and hams, and $10 gift cards.

The Arlington Food Bank has requested pasta, box meals, cereals, condiments, fruit juices, canned vegetables and chili, crackers, chips, cookies, baby food, soap, toothpaste and toothbrushes, shampoo, dish and laun-dry soap, and diapers.

For more information, call Rosenbach at 360-652-4525.

EXPERT ADVICE

HEATING & COOLING

PO Box 1041 Everett, WA 98206

425-252-5002

Q: What does it mean to have your heating

system “sized properly”?

A: We come to your home and do an evaluation and measure your whole house and use a Method called the Manual J Heat Load Calculation which is a tool for us to help properly determine the heat loss in your home to size your new Heating and cooling system right the first time. We don’t guess which can lead to under sizing or oversizing systems. Heat Pumps rely on air so it is extremely crucial when you are considering adding a heat pump to your current system or considering purchasing a heat pump that a Manual J load calculation is performed, ductwork is fully evaluated, and all of these things are explained to you at the time of service.
