BURIEN — Although the Sarvey Wildlife Center is located in Arlington, its all-volunteer staff is willing to go the extra mile, and then some, to help rehabilitate wild animals. That’s how Sarvey Wildlife Center rescue technician William Miller found himself plunging through icy cold waters on Dec. 22 of last year to catch a bald eagle whose twice-broken wing had left it emaciated and unable to do much more than lowlevel gliding. “I had to chase him about a quarter of a mile upstream,” said Miller, who’s been a rescue technician for two of his eight years as a volunteer for the Sarvey Wildlife Center. “It

was shocking. He was just skin and bones.” On Saturday, March 17, the work and resources of Miller and his fellow Sarvey Wildlife Center volunteers paid off when they were able to release that same eagle into the skies of Burien, at the Ed Munro Seahurst Park, near where Miller had recovered the bird in the first place. “Since I picked him up closer to Sea-Tac, we moved him a bit further out,” Miller said. “It’s a nice area with lots of trees.” While many visitors to the annual ArlingtonStillaguamish Eagle Festival or Stillaguamish Festival of the River might know the Sarvey Wildlife Center for the birds of prey that perch SEE EAGLE, PAGE 2

The bald eagle recovered from Burien by the Sarvey Wildlife Center in December of last year was more than ready to fly the coop on March 16, one day before its release back into the wild.

The city of Arlington’s crime map for Feb. 16-29, 2012.

ARLINGTON — Recent visitors to the city of Arlington’s website, at http://arlingtonwa.gov, might have noticed a new feature on its “Maps and Data” page, one which city employees hope will help make citizens safer and more informed. The two-week PDF crime maps on that webpage represent the culmination of plans that began with Val Copeland of the Arlington Police Department and city of Arlington Geographic Information Systems Coordinator Katie Kelleher in 2007. “Crime pin maps are typically shown in movies as a large map on the wall with pins at crime

locations, so that the detectives can follow hot spots of criminal activity as well as track specific crimes,” city of Arlington Public Works Director Jim Kelly said. “Electronic crime maps are generated with databases and are even more useful, as they show criminal activity by date, type or location, providing the police with an effective way to manage resources and to deter crime.” Kelleher explained that, because Arlington’s GIS group was new to crime mapping in 2007, they started by visiting Doug Lindsey of the Everett Police Department, to learn how Everett implementSEE MAPS, PAGE 2

places them on the correct blocks of specific streets, usually within 100 feet of the actual addresses. Once these crimes are placed correctly on maps, they’re also stored in a database for easy access and analysis. Arlington’s GIS group took a couple of months to input the street address ranges into the geocode tool. According to Kelleher, what made Arlington’s crime maps so successful was that the Arlington Police Department provided properly formatted crime addresses so that the geocode tool was able to work to its maximum efficiency. Since 2007, in addition to mapping crimes, the city of Arlington has used the geocode tool to map utility meters, plat addresses and businesses, which Kelleher sees as increasing the productivity of Arlington’s GIS group while also providing valuable services to a variety of city departments. Because the electronic crime database goes back to

2007, it furnishes city staff with reliable datasets for analysis and mapping. The database has grown further by adding traffic accidents going back to 2004. “This database is useful for the city of Arlington Police and Engineering departments, to assist with transportation to make the city safer and easier for citizens to get around town,” Kelleher said. The city recently made two-week PDF versions of those crime maps available on its website, to let citizens know where crime activity has occurred, and even to allow them to follow the crime activity or see the changes in crime over time. “We don’t show the specific residences or businesses where those crimes have occurred,” Kelleher said. “But it gives citizens an idea of where certain types of crime are occurring, and also shows that our crime rate is very low compared to other cities.”

EAGLE FROM PAGE 1 on its volunteers’ arms during those events, those birds can never be returned to the wild. Nursing a wild animal back to health poses more creative challenges when you’re planning to release it eventually into an environment where it won’t be able to depend on humans for survival. “We don’t name our rehab animals, because we don’t want our volunteers developing emotional attachments to them,” Miller said. “Feeding them is difficult as well, because we can’t let them make positive associations between humans and food. Food can’t be treated as a motivator, and they can’t see us handing it out or giving it to them, so we usually just pull them out of their cages to put the food in.” Even though an x-ray confirmed that this eagle’s wing had been broken in two places, it had already healed over, which meant that Sarvey Wildlife Center volunteers had to hope that the bird could recover enough to fly without having its wing broken again and reset. “It’s surprising what these animals can adapt and recover from,” Miller said. “I’ve seen some lose an eye and be able to compensate with the other. The problem with reseting a bald eagle’s wing is

ed its own crime mapping. Kelleher credited her own visits to the Everett Police Department, where she studied their system of tracking crimes, with helping to get Arlington’s GIS

crime maps on the right path. Kelleher also cited Lindsey’s suggestion that the city of Arlington use what’s known as the geocode tool to allow GIS technicians to place address points at specific locations. For crime mapping, this tool takes a table of addresses and

not only that a veterinarian would have to do that, but also that there’s not a lot of study that’s been done on how that affects wild birds as opposed to domestic birds.” Regardless of its injuries, any wild animal that Sarvey Wildlife Center volunteers plan to release must be able to maneuver by sight and hearing, while certain birds such as the bald eagle should be able to fly, perch, grip a stand and maintain their balance. For the Sarvey Wildlife Center, this recovery time adds up to a lot of money that they might not have. Miller’s rescue of the bald eagle alone cost $75, between vehicle fuel and other expenses, and the costs of feeding, cleaning and providing medical care for the bird amounted to at least $10 per day, between Dec. 22, 2011, and March 17, 2012. Still, Sarvey Wildlife Center volunteers such as Miller would rather receive calls from citizens about wild animals, rather than leaving the public to handle those animals by themselves. “You do have to take into consideration whether or not what you’re doing will make things worse for the animal,” Miller said. “Any rescue situation is a matter of time and knowledge. We get a lot of calls from people who think wild animals are injured when they’re not really. They’ll see a bald eagle with bloody legs by the side of a road and think it got hit by a car, when it actually was eating a chicken that happened to be near the road.” When in doubt, though, Miller encouraged the public to call the Sarvey Wildlife Center, since the sooner its volunteers can get an injured animal into treatment, the better its odds are of survival. And while the Sarvey Wildlife Center has maintained a 64 percent release rate in 2010 and 2011, which has edged up to a 65 percent release rate in 2012, its volunteers still took in 3,833 animals in 2011 and 196 animals as of March 16 for this year. “We can always use more volunteers and more funds,” Miller said. For more information, visit Sarvey’s website at www.sarveywildlife.org or on Facebook, or call 360435-4817 between 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., seven days a week.

Nimitz comes to Naval Station Everett kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

EVERETT — When the USS Nimitz pulled into port at Naval Station Everett on Friday, March 9, its crew received a heroes’ welcome from not only a host of local dignitaries, but also a number of the sailors’ loved ones, who were glad to have their husbands, wives, fathers, mothers and significant others that much closer to home, albeit a new home for many. Amber Cameron and Jennifer Lightsey both live in Marysville now, and arrived that morning to wait on the pier for their husbands. “I’m pretty darned excited,” said Amber Cameron, who noted that the aircraft carrier had undergone a year-long overhaul at the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard in Bremerton. “This means no more two-hour commute.” “I’m happy he’s finally here,” said Jennifer Lightsey, who moved to the area in April of last year, even earlier than Amber Cameron, who had arrived in June. “It took him long enough,” she laughed. While Amber and Jeffrey Cameron both come from Minnesota originally, Jennifer and Mike Lightsey’s last home was in Texas. “I like it here,” Amber Cameron said. “It reminds

me of home. I still miss the Mall of America, though,” she laughed. “It’s very different from what I’m used to, with the cold,” Jennifer Lightsey said. “I’ve adapted to different areas before, though. I’ve been from the East Coast to the West Coast.” Jeffrey Cameron has served in the fleet three years and been married to Amber for a little over a year, while Mike Lightsey has served in the fleet eight years and will have been married to Jennifer five years in June. “I’m going to feed him and play a crap-ton of video games with him,” Amber Cameron said. “He’s going to have to go right back to work, but at least he can get a homecooked meal now,” Jennifer Lightsey said. Nimitz crew member and six-year fleet veteran Rena Cheresposy was greeted at the pier by her husband of six years, Jeff, and the five children in their family, including 6-year-old Alex, who’d held up a sign for his “Momma Bear.” “The first thing we’ll do is get something to eat,” said Jeff Cheresposy, who moved to Marysville from Silverdale, Wash., a month ago. “Food always softens the heart.” Like Amber Cameron,

Jeff Cheresposy also looked forward to a shortened commute for his spouse, whose trips to and from home he estimated should only take 13 minutes now, when her ship is in port. Rena Cheresposy likewise said that she was “happy to finally be in Everett.” “My wife and I spent a ton of money in the past few months just on gas and the ferry,” said Michael Cole, a Nimitz crew member who now calls Arlington home. “Arlington is a great, beautiful town with amazing people. Everyone knows everyone. It’s just like ‘Cheers,’ especially when you go to the bowling alley.” Cole plans on spending much more time with his wife, as well as with their new pets, which include chickens, turkeys, a couple of ducks and two dogs. “So whether I’m at home or at work, I’ll be staying pretty busy,” Cole said. Naval Station Everett Commanding Officer Capt. Michael Coury echoed U.S. Rep. Rick Larsen’s characterization of Everett as the “sailor’s choice” of Naval bases, while Rear Adm. Peter Gumataotao, commander of the Nimitz’s Carrier Strike Group 11, praised the station and the surrounding community for their support of the ship’s sailors and families.

From left, USS Nimitz crew member Tyler Hendrix’s parents, Dara Hendrix and Jordan Strickland, join Tyler’s wife, Amanda Hendrix, in welcoming their sailor to his new home port at Naval Station Everett on March 9. “Naval Station Everett is a critical part of Everett’s personality, not to mention an important economic engine,” Larsen wrote in a statement he issued for the event, which he was unable to attend. “We are happy to host the Nimitz and look forward to a strong relationship.” Arlington Mayor Barbara Tolbert, Marysville Mayor

Jon Nehring and Tulalip Tribal Chair Mel Sheldon Jr. looked on as Gov. Christine Gregoire’s husband, “First Mike,” and Everett Mayor Ray Stephanson delivered their own remarks, with Mike Gregoire expressing pride in the Nimitz’s arrival as a native of Everett, and Stephanson asserting that the Navy presence has enriched the diversity and

vitality of the area. “After 15 months of sea trials, we’re here and ready to train and be deployed by the end of the year,” USS Nimitz Commanding Officer Capt. Paul Monger said. “Our crew is dedicated and motivated by an intense desire to serve their country. These are your neighbors. Their kids go to your schools.”

Support Lakewood schools by voting ‘Yes’ on April 17 levies

allots for the April 17 special election will be mailed out late next week and local voters are SCOTT FRANK being asked to support the Lakewood MANAGING School District by approving two levEDITOR ies that will appear on the ballot. Proposition 1 is a Replacement School Programs and Operations Levy which will replace the existing levy which is set to expire at the end of 2012. This levy would provide approximately 20 percent of the district’s total operating revenue. This levy would help pay for the day-to-day operations of the district and would fund student programs, teachers and classroom assistants, transportation, athletics and co-curricular activities, security and more. The estimated levy rate for 2013 is $3.27 per $1,000 of assessed valuation. In 2014 rate would be $3.44 per $1,000; in 2015 it would be $3.54 per $1,000 and in 2016 the estimated levy rate would be $3.64 per $1,000. Proposition 2 is a Capital Projects and Technology Levy which would take the place of the existing technology levy which is set to expire this spring. The levy would provide funds for such things as upgraded heating and ventilation systems, re-roofing of some of the district’s buildings, updating electrical and mechanical system inefficiencies, and planning the modernization of Lakewood High School. It would also help upgrade the district’s technology infrastructure and instructional technology. The cost of the Capital Projects and Technology Levy would be approximately $2.09 per $1,000 of assessed valuation in 2013 and $1.93 per $1,000 in 2014. These are not new taxes — both are replacing existing levies which are set to expire this year. They are an investment in our school district and our children and, as such, should be approved. Because the funding plays such a critical role in the education of our children we encourage you to support the Lakewood School District by voting “Yes” on both of the levies which appear on the April 17 ballot.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Thanks for supporting Paint the Town Purple On behalf of the entire Arlington Relay for Life committee, we would like to thank the community for a fantastic day celebrating Paint the Town Purple in support of the American Cancer Society. There were so many who gave their time to make the event successful: Arlington High School’s Beauty and the Beast cast, National Honor Society and AFROTC all had members providing support and entertainment. DJ Peter Forester, face painter Judy Tilley and the belly dancers “Rubies on Fire” provided entertainment all afternoon. Magnolia Hall, Ronda Howard and Bob Thomas donated space for the event, the 10 eateries that participated in the Purple Plate Special — Playa Bonita, Rocket Alley, Bluebird Café, Bistro San Martin, Pizza Factory, Fountain Drive-In, Mirkwood & Shire Café, Beth’s Mobile Kitchen, La Hacienda and Henry’s Donuts. The Amazing Race couldn’t have happened without the participation of the following: Dwayne Lane, Flowers By George, Cascade Valley Hospital, Food Pavilion, Co-Op Supply, Miller’s Health Food, Vitalire Apparel and Beth’s Cruisin Home Kitchen. And special thanks to the 15 downtown businesses who decorated window displays or store fronts for the event — Arlington City Hall, Flowers By George, Silver Hanger, Oasis Hair Salon, Jennifer’s Pet Grooming, Fogdog Gallery, My Favorite Things, New

Beginnings, Arlington Health Foods, Playa Bonita, Arlington Velo Sports Bicycle Shop, Bella Bungalow, More Than Antiques, Pacific Learning Solutions and Magic Shears. Special thanks to the 16 teams selling items to raise funds for Relay For Life. Many of those same teams participated in Arlington’s first ever lighted parade which was very well attended. Also thanks to Harv Jubie and Marysville Rotary for the use of their train for the parade. Adding spirit to the parade were the Total Impact and Arlington Cheer Teams and, of course, no Arlington parade would be complete without a fire truck from the Arlington Fire Department. We will continue throughout the spring to promote our Relay event and to raise funds for the American Cancer Society.

Support Marysville’s Relay for Life My name is Sarah Devereux and I am a volunteer representing the American Cancer Society and the current Mission Delivery Chair for the Relay for Life of Marysville/Tulalip 2012. We have started our “Relay Season” in full swing and want to involve our great and giving community even more. Our local Relay for Life is scheduled for June 9-10 at Marysville-Pilchuck High School with the theme “The Magic of Relay.” We are actively looking for

more teams, volunteers and donations for the cause. As the Mission Delivery Chair, I feel it is important that our community knows about the programs and information available to them 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with cancer, do you know what you need? Not sure where to start? The ACS has information that can help you and your caregivers understand cancer. Go to www.cancer.org or call 1-800-ACS-2345. The ACS offers multiple programs right here in Snohomish County. Reach to Recovery, Road to Recovery, “Look Good, Feel Better” workshops, various cancer support groups, a Patient Navigator and a Cancer Resource Center filled with numerous resources are all available at Providence Regional Cancer Partnership in our neighboring Everett. These are all programs funded by monies raised through Relay for Life. To find out more, become involved, or support our local Relay, check out our website at relayforlife.org/marysvillewa. As a “Relayer,” one of my favorite sayings is: “No one can do everything, but everyone can do something.” What can you do? Please join us and mark your calendars for June 9 and 10. Let’s celebrate, remember and fight back together Marysville/Tulalip. Sarah Devereux Mission Delivery Chair Relay for Life of Marysville/ Tulalip 2012

Arlington honors fallen veterans

ARLINGTON — On March 31 at 11 a.m., the Arlington Cemetery will serve as the site for a ceremony to honor Snohomish County veterans who passed away between July and December of 2011. “The rendering of military funeral honors is one way this nation shows its deep gratitude to those who, in times of war and peace, have faithfully defended our country,” said Sgt. William Martin of the Washington Army National Guard Honor Guard. “But it wasn’t until the year 2000 that Congress made this ceremonial paying of respects a statutory benefit for a veteran’s family. Prior to that time, even in recent years, honorably serving men and women have passed away without ever receiving a nation’s

formal demonstration of gratitude for their service and sacrifice.” To that end, the Veterans Memorial Tribute Program is dedicated to leaving none of those men and women behind. The names of each veteran will be read aloud, accompanied by the ceremonial ringing of a bell and followed by full military honors, with support from local veterans’ service organizations. “If your loved one was an honorably serving veteran who never received military honors, you owe it to yourself, your family and your loved one’s memory to attend,” Martin said. The Arlington Cemetery is located at 20310 67th Ave. NE. For more information, call the Washington Army National Guard Honor Guard at 360-815-0202.

Marysville plans April 7 Easter Egg Hunt MARYSVILLE — The community is once again invited to the annual Easter Egg Hunt. This free family event features more than 10,000 plastic eggs, filled with candy and prizes, hidden in and around the Jennings Park

Rotary Ranch. In addition, there will be children’s activities and a guest visit from the Easter Bunny. The Easter Egg Hunt will take place from 10-11 a.m. on Saturday, April 7, at Jennings Memorial Park,

located at 6915 Armar Rd. Additional parking will be available at the Marysville Middle School, located at 4923 67th St. NE. Children aged 8 years and younger will be able to collect eight eggs from their designated age-specific area

of the park. All participants are asked to bring a canned food item for donation to the Marysville Community Food Bank. For more information, log onto http://marysvillewa.gov or call Marysville Parks and Recreation at 360-363-8400.

MARYSVILLE — The Marysville Kiwanis Club invites you to a special benefit concert featuring young Marysville artists and some of Seattle’s jazz recording artists, while raising funds for student vocational-technical scholarships. The Kenneth J. Ploeger Kiwanis Memorial Scholarship Concert will begin at 7 p.m. on Friday, March 30, in the MarysvillePilchuck High School auditorium, located at 5611 108th St. The scholarship fund was named by the Ploeger family in memory of Ken, a longtime dedicated Kiwanis member, retired Navy electronics technician and city of Marysville employee who believed in the value of scholarships for students entering a vocational trade or career. Ploeger passed away in August of 2007. The evening’s talent includes performances by the Marysville Jazz Bands and a lineup of guests including the Eastern Washington University Jazz Band, led by conductor and trombonist Rob Tapper, vocalist Kristina Ploeger and Sonja Sarr, Marysville teacher and jazz pianist. This year they’ll be shar-

ing the billboard with a trio of Seattle jazz recording artists — Bill Anschell on piano, Brad Boal on drums and Chuck Deardorf on bass. “I don’t remember a time when Marysville has had this much jazz talent come together for a single performance, so this is sure to be a spectacular night for a great cause,” said Penny Ploeger, Kiwanis concert coordinator and Ken’s widow. “The scholarship fund is a way that our family gives back to the community in Ken’s honor by helping young people on their first steps toward a meaningful career. We hope you’ll join us for an amazing night of music.” The concert will benefit Marysville students for a technology or skills scholarship for classes or community college credits that prepare them for employment in the public sector. You may purchase tickets at the door. Prices are $10 or donation, and kids under 12 get in free. Donations of canned goods or other nonperishable food items for the Marysville Community Food Bank would also be appreciated. For more information call 360-653-3646.

Olympian Rome works with local athletes BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvillglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — Discus thrower Jarred Rome has competed around the world since his stint in the 2004 Summer Olympics in Greece, but he still made time to come back to his hometown of Marysville on Saturday, March 17, to try and pass on some of the insights he’s gleaned from his years in the discus and shot put. “I’ve been doing clinics for other people since 1998, but I’ve had ideas for a while about how I wanted to do my own,” said Rome, who conducted his second discus and shot put clinic at Marysville-Pilchuck High School, following the first clinic he conducted in Arizona three weeks prior. “A lot of clinics will just have you doing 500 throws a day, but I wanted to actually educate and make it more instructional. Of course, doing it yourself is a lot more work than doing it for other people,” he chuckled. According to the attendees of his March 17 clinic, Rome’s hard work yielded new insights for them in discus and shot put. While the bulk of the roughly two dozen student competitors, plus a handful of adult coaches, who showed up to the M-PHS gym that Saturday came from Marysville, there were a few faces not only from elsewhere within Washington

state, but also from Oregon and Idaho. They traveled to see Rome, just as Rome has traveled around the world to hone his skills and add to his techniques. “I’ve trained at Olympics centers in Germany and Russia,” Rome said. “I’ve been fortunate enough to be put in contact with some of the best coaches in the world. I’ve been educated by the world.” What the world has taught Rome is that there are a variety of styles to choose from, in both training and performance, each of which can work for different competitors. It’s one of the lessons that his students on March 17 took to heart. “Jarred is really cool and down to earth,” said Corbin Ferry, 15, of M-PHS, who’s been competing in shot put for two years. “He doesn’t say, ‘This way won’t work.’ It’s not about one certain way, but a lot of different ways.” “This has been really fun,” said Felecia Vadset, 17, also of M-PHS, who’s been competing in discus for four years. “I thought this clinic would just offer a brief overview, but he’s really gone into depth.” Ferry learned to stagger his stance, rather than keeping his feet even, while Vadset learned that she needs to keep her feet farther apart, to aid her balance. Among the more common misconceptions

Gina Flint, left, receives tips on weightlifting, to aid her discus and shot put performance, from Olympian Jarred Rome on March 17. that Rome addresses in young discus and shot put competitors is retraining them to use their lower bodies more than their upper bodies to throw. “A lot of young people throw with the upper body, when the lower body is

where the action should be happening,” Rome said. “The upper body should be relaxed, while the lower body does the work.” Rome is such a strong believer in self-evaluation that he told his students that Saturday to buy note-

books to write down how they feel after each practice session, to get a better sense of which moves and exercises work for them and which ones don’t. He explained that he drew the curriculum for his clinics from referring back to his

own notebooks, to figure out how to teach what he’s learned over the years. “I’ve wanted to do this since 2004,” Rome said. “I love this. I love coming back to Marysville. I want to help this area produce more Olympians.”

Silvana Fair Board Auction honors Strotz set for Saturday, July 28. Manning emphasized that the volunteer-organized Fair is always looking for more folks to join the Fair Board or to help out during the week of the Fair, and referred them to the www.silvanafair.com website. One organizer who won’t be returning for this year’s Fair is former Silvana Fair President Roy Strotz, who passed away on Feb. 3 shortly after his 73rd birthday. During the Board Auction’s tribute to Strotz, he was memorialized as a lifetime supporter of the Fair who was 8 years old when it began in 1947. Strotz was president of the Fair Board for many years, and Kyle Glover will take Strotz’s place as a spotter this year. Attendees recalled Strotz’s love for his family and the community, and all yelled out a loud “Yip” together to honor his legacy and the

work he enjoyed doing for the Fair. “Roy was a huge influence on me and my friend Tina when we were in 4-H,” said longtime 4-H member Mary Fuentes, who credited Strotz with getting her actively involved in the Fair. “I remember coming in from washing our cows at the Puyallup fair. Roy would check them, and if they weren’t clean enough to pass his inspection, he would say, ‘Back to the wash rack for you.’” Fuentes credited Strotz with keeping her on task to sweep the barn aisle “until it was spotless,” and to be always ready to answer questions from the public with a smile on her face. “When Roy asked you to do something, it was hard to say no,” Fuentes said. “I hope that I can be as positive an influence on youth as Roy was on me and my friends.”

SILVANA — The Silvana Fair Board Auction for this year drew more than 300 attendees and raised an above-average total of earnings, according to Silvana Fair Secretary Mary Manning, but it also took time to honor the man whose passing represented a particularly painful loss to the Silvana Fair. “It was a great success, and the turnout and participation was exceptional,” said Manning of the Board Auction on Saturday, March 10, as she extended thanks on behalf of the Fair Board to all of the auction’s donors and bidders for their generosity. Manning congratulated Marysville’s Karen North for being selected as the $250 door prize winner, and explained that the funds raised during the auction will be used to support the 65th annual Silvana Community Fair currently
