INDEX

TULALIP — In spite of the day’s gray skies and slight drizzle, the Roy Robinson Chevrolet, Subaru and RV Center in Tulalip drew hundreds of children on Oct. 1 for their first “Child Safety Day.” Families took advantage of the free “DNA LifePrint” biometric fingerprinting and identification kits that were the centerpiece of the day, and obtained them for a total of 130 kids. “You’re always better safe than sorry, especially if something bad does happen,” said Doug Patchett of Arlington, as he gently spread his 2-month-old son Gage’s fingers so they could be scanned electronically. “When we were kids in the ‘70s, they fingerprinted us for kits like this with ink,” said Jacqueline Patchett,

Doug’s wife and Gage’s mom. “It’s not as messy now. No more black ink on the fingers,” she laughed. Tulalip residents Antonio and Sasha Smith not only got a kit for their 1-year-old daughter Jada, but were also joined by Sasha’s sister and father in checking out some of the other safety information exhibits on site. “Years ago, you got kits like this for your kids, but DNA wasn’t part of it,” said Lee Topash, Sasha’s father and Jada’s grandfather. “I also like that you keep all the information they take down. It doesn’t go to anyone else.” “You never want to think about what would happen if your child went missing, but you’ll be glad you have something like this if it does happen,” said Mary Jane SEE SAFETY, PAGE 2

Mike Hope

TULALIP — What began as a comparison of policy ideas and accomplishments in office between the two candidates for Snohomish County Executive dipped into the territory of character attacks near the end of their joint appearance in front of the Greater Marysville Tulalip Chamber of Commerce on Sept. 30. Republican challenger Mike Hope pressed Democratic incumbent

Aaron Reardon about alleged transgressions by Reardon’s employees, and singled out Kevin Hulten, whom Hope accused of filing a complaint against Hope’s campaign that the state recently dismissed. While Reardon noted that he’d fired a number of his employees for failing to live up to his expectations, he defended Hulten, who remains on the county payroll, since the complaint was actually filed by Seattle resident John Chambers, who knows Hulten. “It turned out that he

didn’t do what you accused him of,” Reardon said. “Don’t accuse me of a lack of integrity when you don’t always understand what that is yourself.” Reardon commended Hope for his focus on law enforcement during the three years that he’s served in the state Legislature, but also questioned what qualifications Hope could point to on economic issues, which Hope focused most of his remarks on that morning.

CHAMBER FROM PAGE 1 “I’ve worked in a bipartisan way with the Legislature, sometimes even going against my own party,” said Hope, who touted his support for reducing the costs to businesses of hiring new employees and for providing tax breaks to those looking to own their first homes. “Giving a thumbs-up or pushing a button to vote isn’t leadership,” Reardon said. One of the few subjects on which Reardon and Hope did agree was the importance of creating jobs in Snohomish County, although even then their opinions obviously differed on how well the county has managed this feat during Reardon’s tenure as County Executive. Reardon cited job growth in Snohomish County that he summed up as twice the statewide average, with 10,000 jobs gained within the past year alone, 6,000 of them in aerospace. By contrast, Hope contrasted a roughly 8 percent unemployment average across the state with rates of 9 percent to 11 percent within the

The Arlington Times • The Marysville Globe

county. “I have a five-point job plan that’s been endorsed by several mayors because it aims to maximize the strengths of each community,” Hope said. “We need to communicate with these communities to develop our growth plan.” Reardon asserted that recent annexations have proceeded according to a schedule designed to minimize impacts on cities and the county alike, for which he credited Snohomish County Tomorrow and former Marysville Mayor Dennis Kendall. Hope warned that such annexations would lead to increased tax rates for a number of county residents, and noted his own partnership with Everett Mayor Ray Stephanson to bring a Washington State University campus to Everett. “Aerospace is a multiplier,” said Reardon, who’s placed a priority on convincing Boeing to build the 737MAX in Snohomish County. “When we can recruit the highest skilled workers, the rest of the economy can grow around them. We’ve

also taken the politics out of agriculture. Our farmlands are more productive than ever before.” “We need to stop buying up farms so we can flood them out,” said Hope, who’s garnered an endorsement from the Washington Education Association and emphasized the importance of diversifying the county’s businesses. “And as much as we wanted to counter Boeing’s offer from South Carolina, its second line still went there.” On the matter of commercial aviation at Paine Field, Hope pledged to consult environmental impact studies and solicit input from figures such as Mukilteo Mayor Joe Marine. Reardon offered a more mixed opinion, declaring his personal qualms with such a move while also acknowledging that it’s now a matter for the FAA. “We can be a bright spot in the economy,” Hope said. “What you have here is record versus rhetoric,” Reardon said. The all-mail general election is Nov. 8.

Arlington’s Gage Patchett is only 2 months old, but he wasn’t too young to get a ‘DNA LifePrint’ identification kit on Oct. 1, even if he did need his dad Doug to help him spread his fingers for the scanner.

SAFETY FROM PAGE 1 Topash, Sasha’s sister and Jada’s aunt. “It’s really nice that the community has come together like this for the safety of its kids,” Sasha Smith said. While parents continued to get their kids’ photos and fingerprints scanned for their kits, Cheri Gauthier of the Everett Clinic demonstrated how hard it can be to check for children behind a car. “We have parents sit in the driver’s seat and we place their children behind

the stationary car,” Gauthier said. “In Jada’s case, it took her backing up 22 feet before her folks could see her in the rearview or side-view mirrors. You should always walk behind your car before you back up.” Anna Gomez of the Providence Regional Medical Center educated families in an entertaining way with a roulette wheel of safety subjects, from swimming to home fire escapes. “How often should you test your smoke alarms?” Gomez asked. “Once a month,” said Marysville’s Maria Scheib, whose 3-year-old daughter

Arlington Arts Council plans ‘Route 66’ concert

ARLINGTON — Spend an evening out being entertained by the music of the swing era in the Linda M. Byrnes Performing Arts Center on Saturday, Oct. 8. The “Route 66” swing band will be headlining, with Arlington High School Jazz Band I opening the show. Route 66 has been playing instrumental and

vocal music from the swing era throughout the greater Puget Sound region for more than 25 years. They specialize in the music of the 1930s, ‘40s and ‘50s, for fans both young and old. Route 66 is comprised of saxophones, trumpets, trombones, a piano, bass and drums, accompanied by vocalist Cindy Solvang. The

band performs the hits of American jazz greats Glenn Miller, Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Count Basie and many more. In 2004, Route 66 recorded its first CD, “Get Your Kicks …” and recorded their second CD, “Don’t Forget Winona,” in 2008. You can preview their music at www.route66swing. com/cdinfo.html.

The Arlington Arts Council is presenting this concert with financial assistance from Arlington’s Hotel-Motel Tax Fund. Proceeds raised will be used to acquire more public art for Arlington, such as the murals and sculptures along the Centennial Trail. The concert starts 7 p.m. on Oct. 8. Tickets are

McNeal joins staff of Globe, Times BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — Jake McNeal is a newcomer to Marysville and Arlington, but in many ways his new hometowns remind him of the ones where he grew up in Oregon. “It’s a lot like Beaverton,” said McNeal, who recently stepped in as the new reporter for The Marysville Globe and The Arlington Times. “It’s very spacious with a lot of smaller businesses. I’m used to this kind of community. It’s comfortable.” McNeal graduated from the University of Oregon in Eugene just this year, where he worked at the Daily Emerald student newspaper covering features such as co-ops and “green living.” McNeal was drawn to writing as a career because it’s an area that’s suited to his skills, and he’s thrilled to be covering local sports because it fits his interests. “I’ve been writing for a long time,” said McNeal, a tall, lanky young man who’s quick to smile. “It’s one thing I’m good at, so in my sophomore year at school, I decided to expand on that. Being able to tie my writing into sports is perfect for me.” Although McNeal is a nearly lifelong writer, journalism has taught him to tailor his writing style to the needs of news reporting. “It’s less about constructing a narrative,” McNeal said. “You’re finding facts. It’s not about your opinions. You’re going out and talking to people and living and recreating their stories.” McNeal hopes to reflect the spirit of the community and amplify its voices. “I want to get people’s words out there and bring them to life,” McNeal said. “My biggest challenge will be familiarizing myself with all the identities in the community, but I’ll be going out to boards and meetings and events to meet people and

establish contacts in the community.” McNeal is excited and grateful to be working at The Marysville Globe and The Arlington Times for his first post-graduate job, especially in the current economy. “It’s a dream come true,” McNeal said. “I watch a lot of ESPN and college football, so I’m looking forward to covering local sporting events. Sports is my way of staying connected to the world. I liked playing sports when I was a kid, but I didn’t have the killer instinct to really excel at it. It’s great that I get to write about the kids who do now, though.”

Jake McNeal looks forward to connecting with the community as its new sports and news reporter.

Abundantly Human GUEST W OPINION

e have often reflected in this column about the remarkable qualities that emerge in everyone when people of all abilities — including people with developmental conditions like autism, Down syndrome, cerebral palsy, and so on — engage fully with each other. Why is this, and how does it work? Driving home from a conference recently I listened to an interview that offered intriguing insight into this question. Paul Collins and Jennifer Elder are the thoughtful parents of a child with autism and authors of several books on their experience. Through their own research and reflection, they have come to see autism not just as a spectrum of disability, but rather as part of the broader spectrum of human experience. Autism, after all, is not just about some quality or capacity that is missing in their child, but a situation developmental psychologists call “cognitive scatter” in which some capacities are delayed while others are amplified. For Paul and Jennifer, autism is about a child who lives mostly in his own world (the word “autism” itself is derived from the Greek word for self) but possesses an extraordinary aptitude for logic and ability to focus. They have come to realize that these qualities, which present themselves so dramatically in their child, are quite common in their own extended families and in society at large. It’s just that in their child certain traits are “over-expressed” resulting in, for example, a remarkable ability to focus on things that interest him but difficulty understanding the experiences of others and in particular the emotions felt by other people. The Center for Disease Control estimates that nearly 1 in 110 children exhibit characteristics common to the autism spectrum with 30 percent exhibiting extraordinary capabilities that far exceed those of the rest of the population. Many people with autism possess a natural understanding of music, have perfect pitch, are able to play a tune perfectly after hearing it once, are fascinated with bus and train systems, and excel in professions that require an advanced “systematizing tendency” like software, mathematics, and engineering. Yet despite their brilliance in the realm of systems and logic, they are perplexed by the complexity of fellow human beings with their illogical and unpredictable emotions. Like Dr. Spock in Star Trek, people with autism often have one foot in each world — the world of abstract logic on the one hand, and the messy world of human experience and emotion on the other. I was particularly moved by Paul’s recollection of the day they received the diagno-

sis. When they entered the doctor’s office their son was simply himself, the child they had always known and loved, with all the many qualities that make him who he is. But the diagnosis felt like something that “happened to” their child, a transformative event that made him somehow seem different when they left the doctor’s office — an autistic child. Yet the qualities that make him autistic are qualities that most of us have at one level or another and can in fact be extremely useful. It is when these qualities are deemed to be “over-expressed” that we apply the label with all of its consequences. Disability in this sense is not about what is missing but about what is abundant, even too abundant. Autism in particular involves an overabundance of one defining quality of the human species, the capacity for abstract logic. Many species are social, but only humans are capable of abstract logic. But what does overabundance of this most human of traits really mean — especially when the capacity to be social is under-expressed? Paul and Jennifer remind us that different families experience autism differently and that there can be profound difficulties including frustration, overstimulation, depression, becoming physically difficult to manage, distress, and so on — difficulties that led previous generations to institutionalize their autistic children. But medical technology increasingly enables mitigation of the most difficult challenges, so that Paul and Jennifer can say they have a “happy and healthy autistic child,” a combination of words not often heard from previous generations. To think of autism as the over-expression of a key human attribute strikes me as profoundly paradoxical. One the one hand, it helps explain why diversity and inclusion so often evoke the best in everyone. What classroom, workplace, or community would not benefit from such an overabundance, a turbo-charged injection of what it means to be human? On the other hand, we know life can be extraordinarily difficult for families experiencing autism. No one I know would ever consciously choose this path. Tom Everill is President & CEO of Northwest Center.

Media battles to control my mind

udging from recent voting patterns, clever propaganda blitzes convince people to believe just about anything. Poor people have been convinced it’s in their interests to award tax breaks to the super-rich. Workers with no pension plans are conned into voting against Social Security. What a strange world. I’m not buying it. No amount of bovine feces can convince me that up is down or black is white. I like to think my mind is independent and I intend to keep it that way, unlike senators who sign pledges to vote someone else’s agenda. Not like ditto-head commentators grown rich peddling ideological lies. The divergence of opinion and independence of thought that were once thought to be good and useful has waned as we all became “connected.” In fact, today’s miraculous communication devices parasitically possess us. Dumb users of smart phones are assailed by what stirs guts, not what stimulates minds. TV and mobile IVs, I-Gadgets drip skewed views into brains 24-7. It’s inescapable. Try sorting what passes as news into four piles. Make one pile of dubious interest — items that don’t much matter in the big scheme of things, like why was Paris Hilton busted last night. Second are oddities like Man bites Dog. Third are real news items you can’t do much about — like tornadoes. Fourth are reports of actions or proposals that might impact lives. These deserve attention. There was a time when a body of investigative reporters dug up real front page news by sifting minutia and snooping through garbage until significant patterns of dots took shape. That was the era of independent press when publishers gave reporters nostrings-attached encouragement to dig up and publish the kind of straight skinny that kept movers and shakers’ shenanigans somewhat under control. Investors have shrunk those news-staffs. Take the Chicago Tribune for example. Owners

OPINION

BOB GRAEF

expecting over 20 percent return on their investments engineered a double-digit percentage cut in staff when profits sagged. That worship of the bottom line leaves readers with flavor-of-the-day “news” that requires little time-consuming leg-work. It’s why we endured three weeks of non-stop coverage of Casey and Calee Anthony while too few worked to expose a for-hire Congress or the lobbyist pimps who prostitute that organization. In today’s world, with Rupert Murdoch’s press tilting opinion toward his personal ideology and with ownership of the airwaves concentrated under a shrinking number of axe-grinding oligarchs there is still a proper way to respond to “today’s news.” Answer every proclamation with, “Oh, yeah?” And then hit the books to ferret out the truth. Beware, because given the amount of ink pernicious propagandists use to mask the stink of their agendas, otherwise discerning people can be taken in. Here are a few themes that merit more space on front pages. (1) What’s good for business may not be good for the economy or nation. When corporations pad their bottom lines by outsourcing jobs and dodging tax obligations by sheltering operations in offshore havens, or when they criminally manipulate markets to block competition, what’s good for business is definitely not good for the economy. When big business has Congress in its pocket — or visa versa — only greed is served, not the national interest. (2) 21st Century party politics is hurting the nation. Politicians have become so involved with campaign-funding from special interests that Congress’s agenda

has become a cash-cow for a profit-motivated shadow government. When a party’s senators and representatives slavishly echo their party’s whip, there is no government of the people, by the people and for the people. (3) Tax-breaks for the superrich are a poor way to create jobs. Anyone in the economic stratosphere is automatically a big-time investor. In good times or bad times they dump billions into investments promising highest returns. Right now some of their best options are Exxon-Mobile stock and snapping up foreclosed housing, opportunistic moves that don’t launch new businesses or stimulate new technology. Cutting top-tier taxes to make them richer does only that — it makes them richer. Improving the climate for small business will create far more jobs than continuing tax breaks for the rich. (4) Unrestrained Capitalism actually embraces Socialism. Unrestrained profit-takers have rigged the system to win by both privatizing profit and socializing loss. Take the failed WPPSS reactors. When investors’ bonds failed, investors prevailed on government to have taxpayers bail them out. Same with TARP funds that bailed out the banking industry. While vested interests enjoy good-times profits, they expect taxpayers to cover their losses. (5) The antics of ambitious Christians and militant Muslims serve as roadblocks against social harmony and world peace. Should there be any doubt, check the offtarget and un-Christian responses of Jerry Falwell, Pat Robertson and Franklin Graham to the 9-11 disaster. Keep a critical ear on the rhetoric to discern who is for or against the use of hate and fear to lessen opportunity and hope for ordinary citizens. People of faith might watch to see who is for or against “love(ing) his neighbor as he loves himself,” And then Vote accordingly. Comments may be addressed to robertgraef@comcast.net.

It really is not important that you are happy with your religion, what is important is that God is happy with your religion. Are you tired of all the hype and materialism found in so many religious groups these days? God has already shown us what true religion is. At the Smokey Point church of Christ we are committed to the open study and honest application of God’s word. It may not be entertaining but it sure brings a rest from the burden of sin. Isn’t that the whole point of religion? Let’s talk about it. 360-939-2080

Lakewood celebrates Homecoming with win BY TRAVIS SHERER Sports@marysvilleglobe.com

LAKEWOOD — Dan Teeter sat his team down before the season began to let them know that Archbishop Murphy was this year’s homecoming game. “I wanted this one in front of the biggest crowd so we

could get as many people to see what Cougar football looked like,” he said. The packed grandstand spilled out onto the field after Teeter’s boys took down the Wildcats 26-22 Sept. 30. By defeating ATM, Lakewood is now the only Cascade Conference team

that can claim a victory over the longtime conference power. “This win is really a benchmark for Lakewood football,” said senior linebacker Christian Melton. “Hopefully we can start a dynasty with this like what (the Wildcats) have.” Melton was part of a defensive effort that produced three Archbishop Murphy turnovers — all in the second half and two deep inside their own territory. “I knew we were close in talent so whoever won the turnover battle would take the game,” said Teeter. “But I didn’t think it’d take three — and we needed all of them.” The third Cougar takeaway came by way of senior Jacob Micheletti’s interception just two plays after ATM kept Lakewood out of the endzone with a goalline stand midway through the fourth quarter with the score 22-19 in favor of the Wildcats. “That was amazing,” said senior quarterback Justin Peterson of Micheletti’s pick at the 7-yard line. “After not getting to score, we were feeling kind of down, but

after that, we were ready.” Two plays later, Peterson connected with tight end Dustin Stanton for the eventual game-winning touchdown on a five-yard strike over the middle. Murphy had one more shot, getting the ball with four minutes left, but Lakewood stopped the Wildcats 16 yards short of the endzone, stuffing ATM running backs on thirdand-two and fourth-andone situations. Peterson finished the game with 11 yards rushing and two scores on the ground to combine with his 45 yards passing, completing five of eight attempts and another score. Melton also added a score, earning 39 yards on 10 carries, but shined on the defensive end with six tackles. 152 “Christian was nails, stuffing that middle every play,” said Teeter. “He really helped calm down that defense and that was huge for us tonight.” After allowing 152 yards and two TDs in the first half, Lakewood settled in the second half allowing 149 yards, but just one TD while grabbing a pair of

The Cougars gained a total of 178 yards but relied on Murphy’s mistakes, such as a pair of botched snaps and turnovers, to earn excellent field position. Three of Lakewood’s four touchdown drives started inside ATM’s 20-yard line. The Cougars improve to 5-0 overall and 3-0 in conference, but more importantly have put themselves in the driver’s seat for a conference title for the first time in Teeter’s six years as coach. “No doubt about it,” said Teeter when asked if this was the most important win

in his tenure at Lakewood, which started with a 76-6 loss to Murphy. “Nothing compares to it.” Lakewood’s 2011 Homecoming court includes Homecoming King and Queen Sawyer Almasi and Arianna Barrio; senior Prince and Princess Jacob Micheletti and Miranda Head; junior Prince and Princess Justin Peterson and Lexi Parenteau; sophomore Prince and Princess Jacob Lizarraga and Kendall O’Kinsella; freshman Prince and Princess Alec Burbee and Darby Throndsen; and Grand Marshals Steve and Robin Barker.

Totem Thunderbirds off to 2-0 start on gridiron BY JAKE MCNEAL

jmcneal@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — Totem Middle School’s eighth-grade varsity football Thunderbirds are off to a 2-0 start in 2011 after suffering an 0-6 record in 2010. The team scored a 12-8 win over traditional powerhouse Stanwood on Sept. 28 to secure its first home win of the season by forcing timely turnovers and controlling the ball on offense. Quarterback Taylor Koellmer kept Totem’s modified pistol offense moving with scrambles in key moments to keep Stanwood’s defense on its heels. Robert Miles, Koellmer’s favorite target on offense, sealed the game to complement his receiving touchdown and previous interception with an interception late in the fourth quarter on Stanwood’s final attempted comeback drive. “We didn’t expect a lot of passing,” Totem head coach Travis Marsh said of the gameplan. “We

get two guys to the ball. Players get bigger in Stanwood every year.” Brothers and Totem teammates Gavin and Keegan Holdt agreed that the turnovers were “definitely the decisive factors” in the contest.

“I think we could step up the blocking, but that’s all we really need to work on,” Gavin said. “We persevered through all the bad. We made a ton of mistakes, but we worked through them. We’re only

going to get better through the season.” “Overall, the team effort was really good,” Keegan said. “We are the smallest middle school — we SEE TOTEM, PAGE 9

TOTEM FROM PAGE 8 have around 40 kids on the team, and last year we were 0-6. Now we want to make a name for the football team as the smallest middle school.” The Totem Parent Teacher Student Association and principal Robert Kalahan celebrated the first home game of the season by handing out free hot dogs and soda to fans and parents. A line of vintage Ford Thunderbirds under the banner of the Pacific Northwest Chapter of the Vintage Thunderbird Club of America were on hand to commemorate the event. “Last year our PTSA really developed — we ended up with 180 PTSA members, which was the most PTSA members of any school, even high schools, in the district. They came out and painted the goalposts here last weekend, getting the flags mounted up there. They got the car club to come out here for the first home game,” Kalahan said. “This is the first time we’ve done this for the football team. A lot of their kids are playing, so it’s a lot of great parents who are setting it up. We really want community involvement in schools — we want volunteers. It’s part of what we do in this school.” “[The PTSA] spent two whole days redoing our goal posts. They got in touch with the classic cars. We’ve got pom poms and we’re handing out free hot dogs. This is our big tailgate bash for the year,” Michelle Sawyer, Totem center and defensive tackle Mitchell Sawyer’s mother, said. “This team, when they were seventh graders, didn’t have any wins last year but they never gave up. They’d fight until the bitter end, and now this year they’ve come together and gelled. They’re playing from this one school here where they have eighthgrade boys,” Steve Sawyer, Mitchell’s father and Totem football enthusiast, said. “I think there’s 98 kids in the school, and 25 or 26 of them turned out for football. The team they’re playing, they took two schools and put them together to make one school, so it’s kind of like a 3-A playing against a 4-A team, so they’re playing beyond themselves.” “We’re the smallest middle school in the league. We pull from the smallest amount of kids — a little over 100 — and there are 26 on the team. We control the things we can control: effort, attitude, intensity and execution. We can’t control the refs, but we can control ourselves. We want to be clean on offense and own positions on defense,” Marsh said. “This team would get blown out by 20 or 40 points

Deborah J. LeBlanc

Deborah J. LeBlanc, beloved daughter of John and Carole LeBlanc, passed away suddenly September 24, 2011, at Providence Hospital, Everett. She was born in Seattle on December 6, 1954 and raised in West Seattle, Des Moines and the Getchell area of Lake Stevens. She was a graduate of Marysville High School, worked in the seafood processing industry in Alaska for 15 years and was last employed at King and Prince Seafood in Redmond, WA. Debbie was a most kind hearted lady who cherished her family and friends. She was a talented singer/ musician and realized her dream of recording a CD of her music. She was a spiritual soul and had a special place in her heart for animals, especially her beloved

horse “Peppi”. Her sense of humor and her love of laughter was a hallmark of her inviting personality. Debbie loved to travel and dreamt of returning to Costa Rica and Hawaii. She also loved dragons, horseback riding, rodeos, camping, and raspberry pie. We will miss her and always hold her dear in our hearts. Debbie was predeceased by her mother Carole and her brother Jim Long. She is survived by her father John

MARYSVILLE — The staff members of the Sunnyside Nursery were able to thank their customers and support their local food bank at the same time on Oct. 1, with a flurry of activities that drew crowds and donations in spite of the day’s dreary weather. Sunnyside’s “Customer Appreciation Day” offered free barbecue hot dog lunches, face- and pumpkin-painting for kids, and a raffle for prizes ranging from gift certificates to gardening goods. It also marked the final day of their two-week “Cans for Cams” food drive for the Marysville Community Food Bank, through which those who dropped off non-perishable items could enter to win a “Plant Cam,” a weather-proof, time-lapse digital camera. “You know those timelapse films you used to watch in school of plants growing?” Steve Smith, “The Whistling Gardner” and owner of the Sunnyside Nursery, asked those in attendance for the final raffle drawing of the day. “Well, this is just like that, except you can use it at home.” Sunnyside has already set aside a plot of land just across the street from its store

for Marysville high school students to grow their own “Giving Gardens” to supply the Marysville Community Food Bank. According to Sunnyside staff member Melissa Volk, “Cans for Cams” is the second full-fledged food drive in support of the food bank conducted by Sunnyside itself this year, with the first one running from February through March. “The students harvested 1,040 pounds from their garden as of yesterday,” Volk said on Saturday, Oct. 1. “Their goal for the year is 2,000 pounds. As for us, we filled up two 40-gallon red collection barrels with non-perishables, and even received a donation of $10, even though we weren’t asking for money.” Sunnyside never bothered to put away their collection barrels from this spring’s food drive, so they’ve steadily received donations of food ever since, but the bulk of their donations for this fall’s food drive came in on its final Saturday. “Our focus for today was on customer appreciation, so we didn’t want to make our patrons feel obligated to donate just because they were here,” Volk said. “Even so, a lot of people brought in entire bags of food. It’s clearly a good idea to pair up two events that

I’ve spent my life growing things. It’s a very nurturing process. When you grow things that you can eat, the natural tendency is to want to share them. As a kid, I remember going fishing with my dad, coming back, cleaning and filleting all those fish, and sharing them with all our neighbors. There’s a pleasure in sharing, and it’s the right thing to do. It’s just that simple.”

A: Yes; Excellent question depending upon the build of your home there are a few really good Cheri Groves Comfort Advisor solutions. PUD has had an amazing program since 1982 for their Electric Customers. If it is possible to get ductwork into your home you can get a low interest 2.9 % loan up to $12,000 for this project through PUD for a Heat Pump and Duct work Project or a $1,200 incentive from PUD for being Energy efficient. Or Mini Split Ductless which requires NO ductwork that they will do a low interest loan for 2.9% for 10 years up to $6,000 or an $800 incentive. High Efficiency Gas Furnace with Ductwork is also a possibility if you have gas available.
