MARYSVILLE — Even before the evening’s events, the Marysville community celebrated various festivities throughout Saturday, Dec. 3, to kick off the winter holiday season. While the merchants of Second, Third and Fourth streets drew visitors through their “Passport to Christmas” prize program from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., the Outer Court by the Carabinieri Bar coffee stand on Third Street had its own Santa available for photos from 1-4 p.m. “We must have gotten between $50 and $60 in cash, plus $20 to $30 worth of toys and $60 to $75 worth of food,” said Misty Creel at 2 p.m., as she collected for Allen Creek

Community Church’s “Seeds of Grace” from the nearly 30 families who had stopped by within an hour. “Seeds of Grace serves about 100 to 200 families a week, so every bit helps.” The Marysville Historical Society also had Santa on hand for photos from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Gehl House in Jennings Park, with the $10 per family going toward their capital campaign. Steve and Donna Muller took the photos and donated the time and labor out of their own pockets, while Marysville DECA students served as Santa’s elves. “Santa had about 120 candy canes when he started, and he’s got about 40 left, so SEE HOLIDAYS, PAGE 2

Council approves 2012 city budget BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — While the evening’s public hearing yielded no input, not all of the Marysville City Council members agreed on the proposed city budget and property tax levies for 2012 during their Nov. 28 meeting. The Council’s votes on the ordinances for the EMS tax and the amendment of Marysville Municipal Code relating to the utility tax on telephone services were both unanimous 7-0, but Council member Jeff Seibert, Lee

Phillips and Jeff Vaughan voted against the majority on the ordinance for the regular tax. By a vote of 4-3, the Council levied a 1 percent increase on the regular tax, rather than banking that tax increase. Although the EMS tax was capped out, the Council’s unanimous vote to increase that tax was intended to bank that tax increase. Seibert and Vaughan were the minority votes again as the Council voted 5-2 to approve the proposed city budget for 2012, which Marysville Mayor Jon

Nehring touted as part of a long-term plan to afford the city some financial stability in a relatively independent fashion. “When I came into this office last year, I knew we needed to look down the road about three years and assume that the economy wouldn’t improve at all,” Nehring said. “We didn’t project any revenue increases, because we wanted to avoid having to rebalance the budget.” The 2012 budget is $111.5 million, down from the 2011 budget of $119.6 million due

“When I came into this office last year, I knew we needed to look down the road and assume that the economy wouldn’t improve at all.” Jon Nehring Marysville Mayor largely to reduced capital expenditures and debt service. Nehring noted that the 2012 budget maintains the status quo of not expecting a recovery from the reces-

sion, especially as retail sales tax in Marysville continues to drop between 3.5 percent and 4 percent on a year-to-year SEE BUDGET, PAGE 2

BUDGET FROM PAGE 1 basis. The 2012 budget’s general fund is $36 million, up from the 2011 budget’s general fund of $34.6 million, with most of that increase owing to an $826,128 subsidy to the street fund to meet operational needs. As assessed property values have dropped, the levy rate approaches its limits, and pending foreclosures rise, estimates for property taxes have been decreased by 2.2 percent. At the same time, the fund balance has come closer to Nehring’s goal of 10 percent of its revenues, with the initial estimate of 6.5 percent increasing to a forecast of 8.5 percent by the end of the year, which Nehring believes the 2012 budget will maintain. While Nehring pointed to

the eventual savings of the city paying down its debts aggressively, he also cited the city’s continued investment in supporting business and quality of life, the former by working to turn 1,000-plus master-planned acres in north Marysville along I-5 into a regional manufacturing and light-industry center for as many as 10,000 jobs in aerospace and high-technology, and the latter by redeveloping the downtown and waterfront into a more park-like, pedestrian-friendly blend of high-rise housing with a mix of new retail and office space. The proposed 156th Street I-5 overcrossing would contribute to the former, according to Nehring. The 2012 budget also places a priority on public safety, since it kept budget cuts kept from the Marysville Police Department’s School Resource

Officers, Marysville Volunteers Program, Graffiti Task Force, crime analysis, the K-9 program or the NITE Team. In 2011, a redeployment of forces within the department yielded savings in reduced overtime and personnel costs, at the same time that the city saw an overall drop of 17 percent in crime through October compared to 2010. “In 2011, I presented five employees and teams with our Dare to Soar Innovative Service Award,” said Nehring, who praised city directors for emphasizing efficiency and empowering their employees to find new ways to save money. “Their innovative ideas yielded cost savings to taxpayers of more than $360,000. I think this speaks to the dedication of our public employees and the value we all place on spending your tax dollars wisely.”

HOLIDAYS FROM PAGE 1 that’s about 80 kids,” Steve Muller said at 2:30 p.m. “We usually get about 100, which is plenty,” he laughed. “Between the photos and the $150 in raffle tickets we’ve sold, we’ll probably raise a total of $700 for the day.” Marysville’s Marina Acero had brought her son Eddie for photos with Santa last year. This year, 9-year-old Eddie returned, but with his 1-year-old brother Emiliano in tow. “It’s a good time to share with family and friends,” Marina Acero said of the day’s activities. “It’s fun to be with the kids and make them laugh,” Marysville Getchell

High School senior Mayra Hernandez said, as she led children through coloring in the Jennings Park barn while they waited to see Santa next door. Hours before the 23rd annual “Merrysville for the Holidays” Electric Lights Parade passed by Comeford Park on State Avenue at 6:30 p.m., the Ken Baxter Community Center was already attracting crowds to the park with its annual Holiday Craft Show, which ran from 2-8:30 p.m. and featured 14 indoor and 10 outdoor vendors this year. “We’ve worked to maintain a variety while keeping up with current trends,” city Recreation Coordinator Maryke Burgess said. “We’ve mixed together customers’ favorites with new crafters each year. This is our second year of outdoor vendors, and we’re definitely seeing more turnout when we let our crafters set up early. Our vendors sell more and the crowds steadily rise throughout the day.” Stanwood’s Jill Steele sampled the teas of Amy Lawrence’s Bothell-based “Afternoon to Remember” in the Ken Baxter Community Center, while Suzi Parks of “Heart to Heart Designs by Suzi” had such a positive experience at the center’s Autumn Craft Show that she came all the way from Camano Island to sell her uniquely constructed books in Marysville again. “I met a lot of neat people and sold a lot of our books,” Parks said, echoing fellow

Autumn Craft Show vendor Debbie Roscoe, who likewise returned to the Ken Baxter Community Center on Dec. 3 to sell her handmade soaps because “I love the people I run into at these events, and Maryke is just wonderful.” Marysville’s Quinn and Lisa Johnson have lived in Marysville for five years, but it wasn’t until they could find a babysitter this year that they were able to attend “Merrysville for the Holidays” and watch as Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring lit the city water tower. “I love stuff like the soaps,” Quinn said at the Holiday Craft Show. “When we heard that the parade was back, we had to check it out.” “This holiday festival is wonderful for showcasing local artists and getting the community out together,” Lisa said. Jim Johnson brought the whole family down to Comeford Park for the afternoon and evening, as he’s done for years. “It’s a night out on the town with the young ones,” Johnson said, as 6-year-old daughter Makena Keller made holiday crafts of her own outdoors. “They like the activities and get to learn the culture of the city, and we get to do things with our kids that are fairly inexpensive. With times the way they are, it’s great when you can excite the kids without having to break the bank.”

VFW provides holiday parties for National Guard, families MARYSVILLE — During the same weekend that Arlington celebrated its “Hometown Holidays” and Marysville became “Merrysville for the Holidays,” the members of Arlington Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 1561 made sure that the soldiers of the Washington Army National Guard 81st Brigade who are serving locally would have a happy holiday season as well.

The Marysville Armed Forces Reserve Center hosted the VFW’s Christmas parties for the 81st Brigade Headquarters Company on Friday, Dec. 2, and Bravo Company on Sunday, Dec. 4. “We saw about 110 soldiers on Friday night, and another 70 on Sunday afternoon,” said Post 1561 Cmdr. Willy Hughes, before presenting a certificate to Headquarters Company Commander Capt. Michael Balam on Dec. 2 for the

Hughes thanked Balam for his company’s donation of $150 toward the event from its Morale, Welfare and Recreation fund, which aided the VFW in decorating and supplying the mess hall and “Santa’s workshop” areas of the Armed Forces Reserve Center, as well as in providing Santa photos for soldiers’ families and a crafting table for their children. “It brings the families closer to the military,” said Balam, whose troops come to Marysville one weekend out of every month. “I’ve heard wives say that when they see just a bit of what their husbands go through as soldiers, they can understand why they sometimes come home feeling a bit stressed.” Balam’s troops have already deployed to Iraq twice, but until they receive further orders, they’re standing by for word from the governor. In the meantime, while unaccompanied soldiers such as special-

ists Lucas Halcomb and Marcio Neuy shared laughter and conversation over their meals, parents such as Lake Stevens residents Staff Sgt. Beau Froelich and his wife Sarah watched raptly as their children climbed

into Santa’s lap and received stuffed stockings full of presents from Mr. and Mrs. Claus. “It’s rare that we can have get-togethers like this,” Beau Froelich said, after son Bayden and daughters

Caylee and Audrey began gushing over their gifts. “Seeing Santa was definitely their favorite part of tonight,” he laughed. “It’s good for morale. Anything that supports our troops and veterans is a positive.”

ast week I met Debbie, who supervises the janitorial teams at a number of facilities in downtown Seattle including everything from historic office buildings to modern skyscrapers housing an array of government agencies and officials — an imposing stretch of real estate and a huge responsibility. Debbie is a highly capable leader by any measure. She demonstrates the most amazing qualities of no-nonsense wisdom and common sense, delivered in a straightforward manner completely without pretense. Most books on leadership would be irrelevant in Debbie’s world because they focus so much on the pretensions, power struggles, and complex masks most of us experience at work. Neither Debbie nor her team worry about any of this because everyone on the team experiences the world differently from most people — they live in the unfiltered world of the present, simply being their honest selves. They are people with developmental conditions the rest of us would label “disabilities,” which is simply another way of saying “not like me.” And what do Debbie and her crew of janitors accomplish every night? They keep over 50 floors of critical government office space spotless. They handle all snow removal and de-icing of sidewalks. They clean the elevators, stairwells, restrooms, offices, lunchrooms, and ornamental

Let’s balance the budget while creating jobs

e don’t really have a budget problem — we have a jobs problem. When the economy was good, the budget was fine. So the question is this: How can we balance the budget while creating jobs? Budget cuts don’t create jobs, or fix your economy. If budget cuts created jobs, our state economy would be booming, since we cut $10 billion in spending. Nobel-prize winning economist Paul Krugman rightly pointed out that states are wrong to cut jobs when the economy is weak. It only hurts you in the long run. Cuts are job killers, because state troopers, prison guards and teachers go to the unemployment line. I agree with the title of

GUEST OPINION REP. HANS DUNSHEE Republican leader Richard DeBolt’s recent Op/Ed in the Seattle Times: “Job Growth Key to Budget Solution.” What we need are long-term solutions. The question is how to create jobs while balancing the budget. It all starts with jobs When I was knocking on doors last year, every cul-de-sac had an empty house and other people, who were still in their homes, often told me they were just waiting for

the call from the bank, waiting to be evicted because the banks had played casino with the economy and they were the losers. Even those folks who have jobs and are mowing the lawns of empty foreclosed houses in the cul-de-sac to prevent crime and keep property values up are concerned. They might be next. When I talk to small business owners, they say they need customers, customers and customers. Tax breaks do nothing when you you’re not making money. Jobs mean small business owners have customers coming in the doors. Jobs Now, Washington’s Future That’s why a strong coalition of SEE JOBS, PAGE 5

n recent weeks, I have heard from administrators and health care workers who operate small hospitals in rural areas across the state, and from those within the 39th District, which includes United General Hospital in SedroWoolley, Valley General in Monroe, and Cascade Valley in Arlington. They are concerned with proposed cuts in the governor’s supplemental budget plan for reimbursement of care for Medicaid and Medicare patients. Many of these are small hospitals with 25 beds or less that operate in Rural Public Hospital Districts. Local taxpayers have approved these hospital taxing districts to ensure critical access to health care in Washington’s rural areas. Most of their budgets are at bare minimum and they rely on cost-based reim-

GUEST OPINION REP. DAN KRISTIANSEN bursement from state and federal Medicaid/Medicare dollars. The governor’s proposal would slash $27.2 million for the remainder of the budget cycle (through June 30, 2013) from the Critical Access Hospital Program, which could affect 38 rural hospitals across the state. An example is United General in Sedro-Woolley, whose reductions would be more than $2.3 million per year. That’s in addition to more than $4.8 million of uncompensated care provided annually by

United General. Hospital officials say if the Legislature approves these reductions, it could force many rural hospitals to curtail health services or close altogether. It would also mean the loss of jobs in rural communities where the hospital is often one of the largest employers. Additionally, closure would create an influx of patients into other hospitals without the capacity to deal with the increase. Many may end up in emergency rooms, driving up health care costs and wiping out any savings the governor would hope to achieve from her proposal. Some are so despondent over the governor’s cuts they are willing to blindly jump into her plan to increase taxes by nearly a half-bilSEE SERVICES, PAGE 5

I asked hospital administrators and workers, please donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t swallow that bitter pill quite yet. We can fund our rural hospitals at the present levels within existing revenue without tax increases, without these onerous cuts, and without hurting funding for education, public safety and for protection of the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most vulnerable citizens. It is just a matter of setting the correct priorities in the budget â&#x20AC;&#x201D; something the Legislature has failed to do. Here are some things to consider: In the remaining 19 months of the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fiscal calendar, state government is expected to take in nearly $2 billion more than the previous budget cycle â&#x20AC;&#x201D; more than enough to cover the hospital reductions in question.

Dan Kristiansen While the governor is seeking to reduce education funding by another $411 million that she would â&#x20AC;&#x153;buy backâ&#x20AC;? through her proposed sales tax increase, she has yet to reduce the budgets of several of her own agencies. For example, the total operating budgets of each of these departments have increased by the following amounts over the previous budget cycle: â&#x2013; Agriculture â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Up 8.2 percent; â&#x2013; Natural Resources â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Up 7.6 percent; â&#x2013; Ecology â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Up 10 percent; â&#x2013; Department of Parks and Recreation â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Up 12.2 percent; and â&#x2013; Fish and Wildlife â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Up 14.8 percent. When the Legislature is cutting education (the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s paramount duty) and slashing funding for rural hospitals, while

increasing funding to save salmon and buy more park lands, I believe priorities are in the wrong order. During this special session and throughout the regular session which begins next month, I will be fighting to reset these priorities to ensure rural hospitals will not be cut short when it comes to life and death care. By establishing priorities of government and unleashing the power of the private sector to create jobs, we can balance the state budget and preserve these vital services without raising taxes on families when they can least afford it. Rep. Dan Kristiansen, R-Snohomish, serves as chairman of the Washington House Republican Caucus and represents the 39th Legislative District.

MARYSVILLE â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Mayor Jon Nehring has announced Octavio Ubin Mendez Dias as Volunteer of the Month for October for the teenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s many contributions through the YMCA, Marysville School District and community. Mendez, 16, attends Marysville Getchell High School in the Academy of Construction and Engineering. He is also active in the Snohomish County YMCA Minority Achievers Program, or MAP. MAP is a success story that got its start at the Marysville Y branch, where Mendez attends. The program draws a large group of energetic teens who motivate and support each other and other students of color to achieve higher educational and career goals. They get involved in their community, and spend time with friends old and new. Nerhing said that encouraging volunteerism at a young age brings positive lessons that will enable teens to do big things with impactful results today and for many years to come. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re never too young to get started,â&#x20AC;? Nehring said at the Nov. 14 City Council meeting where Mendez was honored, as family members and community leaders looked on. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Octavio is a shining example of that.â&#x20AC;? Among Mendezâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; achievements: He volunteered with the Summer Food Program, a partnership between the School District and the Y last summer. The district provided the food, while the Y provided the place and activities. Mendez gave up a portion of his summer and went nearly every day to lead and spend time with the kids during various activities; coached kids in the Casino Road Soccer Camp; helped remove graffiti at Totem Middle School; assisted senior citizens in Marysville with MAP to make a difference on the Martin Luther King Jr. Holiday, providing

Mt. Vernon outruns M-P on the hardcourt BY JAKE MCNEAL jmcneal@arlingtontimes.com

MARYSVILLE — Marysville-Pilchuck’s boys varsity basketball team came into its season opener on Dec. 3 with five seniors in guards Dominique Kiblinger and Terryll Daguison, wings

Bruce Crawford and Phillip DeSanctis and post Calvin White. The trouble is that Mount Vernon, hungry for its first non-Northwest Conference win after losing to Snohomish and Anacortes, has eight seniors. The Bulldogs showed the

Tomahawks what a surplus of veteran talent can do by running M-P up and down the floor to a 75-63 win. Mount Vernon was quicker than M-P from the tip-off as they hustled to fast break baskets and forced the Tomahawks to keep up with their pace. The Bulldogs out-

hustled and out-rebounded the Tomahawks early and often. “We couldn’t guard everyone at once,” said M-P junior guard Nathan Williams, who registered 28 points and went six-for-seven from three-point range and nine-of-eleven on field goals. “All of their guards could shoot and it’s hard to guard your guy and help out at the same time.” M-P swung the ball around the perimeter to try to catch Mount Vernon’s 2-3 zone out of position, but found few gaps for dribbledrive penetration. Quick hands on the Bulldog defense snatched Tomahawk passes away and took them the length of the court in a flash. The score favored Mount Vernon 19-12 at the end of the first quarter. “We played hard on defense, but they’re smart with the ball,” M-P junior guard Monnie Williams said of Mount Vernon’s offense. M-P slowed the Bulldogs’ pace and gained ground in rebounding in the second

quarter, but too many times Mount Vernon dribblers beat a Tomahawk defender one-on-one and swooped in to score. Time and again Mount Vernon’s quick passing in the half court found an uncovered man for a quick layup. The Tomahawks stayed in contention with threepoint shot after three-point shot, but were fortunate that their long-range shots were falling because the Bulldogs gave up no easy buckets and no penetration. M-P pushed the ball downcourt with under 10 seconds in the half, but Kiblinger’s buzzer-beater layup would not fall. Mount Vernon led 44-33 at the half. “We played like it was zero-zero coming out of halftime,” Monnie Williams said of his team’s effort to adjust to the Bulldog rush. Mount Vernon continued their success against the Tomahawk defense, keeping possessions alive with offensive rebounds and converting layups at will to extend their lead to 61-39

after three quarters. Junior guard Nathan Williams fought to keep his team in the game with a flurry of three-point shots and a twisting, winding layup that earned him free throws, but the Bulldogs’ speed and execution suffocated M-P’s ball-control half court attack. “I focused on shooting all day,” said Nathan, who finished six-of-seven on threepointers, of his shots that kept falling. “I treated this whole past week like game day.” M-P applied a full-court press down 73-52 late and Nathan Williams rewarded his team’s efforts by sinking a three-pointer, as would Monnie Williams on the very next stolen ball. Mount Vernon called timeout with just over a minute remaining in the game to quell the Tomahawks’ lategame surge. Nathan Williams scored the last of his 28 points on the night with another three-pointer with just seconds to go, but M-P’s fate was sealed, 75-63.

Stanwood girls bury Chargers BY JAKE MCNEAL jmcneal@arlingtontimes.com

STANWOOD — Marysville Getchell’s varsity girls basketball team went north for a Friday night game against Stanwood on Dec. 2 looking for their first-ever win after falling 96-30 to EdmondsWoodway on Nov. 29. Charger senior Kyleigh Dschaak tallied 14 points to lead Getchell in scoring, but Stanwood’s sevensenior squad took little time in showing the difference between an upstart team and seasoned experience, cruising to a 90-28 win. Stanwood’s full-court press produced three quick baskets to start the game and led to a 10-2 lead as Getchell tried to break the trap. Junior Charger Rachel Lefstad and her team ran down the court to attack the basket but all too often had trouble connect-

ing on passes beneath the Spartans’ avalanche press deep on their end of the floor and trailed 19-2 midway through the first quarter. “We had to minimize the game,” Getchell coach Shannon Grandbois said. “If we could get the ball over halfcourt, it was a good thing.” Getchell played hard man-to-man defense and created fast breaks but too many times failed to convert as they became tangled in Stanwood’s 2-3 zone. The more seasoned Stanwood did not blink against the Chargers’ scrappiness. Instead they swung the ball around the perimeter, sinking open threepoint shots when they could not score immediately off of turnovers. Stanwood senior wing Jade Borseth sank a threepointer from the top left corner as time expired in

the first quarter to energize her home crowd and give her team a commanding 31-6 lead. Spartan senior guard Samantha Kelleigh beat the first-half buzzer with a three to push Stanwood’s lead to 55-16. The Chargers came out much tougher to start the second half with more sound passing, securing more rebounds and taking more trips into the paint, but the shots would not fall. Stanwood, with 1.4 seconds left in the third quarter and the length of the court to go, tried to roll the ball closer to half court so that the clock would not start until they picked it up and the Spartans would have a much shorter heave, but the roll touched the end line and Getchell was awarded the ball with 1.4 still on the clock, though the Chargers could not

convert. The score read 72-18 at the start of the fourth quarter. The Spartans’ demolition continued in the fourth quarter in which the clock did not stop because of the lead. Getchell junior guard Khalyn King created some magic of her own by stealing the ball at midcourt, tossing it up and watching her shot bounce twice on the rim and drop for two points as the clock expired. “From game to game, from Edmonds-Woodway (on Nov. 29) to now, there’s been a huge improvement,” Grandbois said. “(Sophomore guard) Ashlynn (Trujillo) got down on herself against Edmonds-Woodway, but she completely turned it around.” Getchell senior post Brianna Lloyd-Bennett led her squad with nine points.

ARLINGTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Marysville Getchell coach Corby Schuhâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s brand-new varsity program faced its first-ever test when they traveled to Arlington for its season opener on Nov. 29. The Chargers came out swinging, but the more experienced Arlington squad found their basketball legs and fought back for a 70-53 win. Getchell sprung out to a 15-6 lead to end the first quarter with sharp perimeter shooting to show the Arlington crowd that they meant business. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We were playing good, hard defense and we were excited,â&#x20AC;? Schuh said of his teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quick start. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But I told the team that this is Arlingtonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s house and basketball is a game of runs.â&#x20AC;? Arlington came alive and flexed its muscles in the paint to pull within three at 18-15 with four and a half minutes left in the second quarter. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We played hard. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the biggest thing,â&#x20AC;? Getchell senior forward Spencer Winters said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We came out tough in the first quarter, but we got comfortable.â&#x20AC;? Arlington outscored Getchell 19-9 in the second quarter before Eagle junior guard Terry Dawn scored a go-ahead tip-in as time expired in the first half to give his team its first lead, 25-24. The Chargers played tough man-to-man defense in the second half, but time and again the Eagles burned Getchell with open three-pointers. Arlington led 50-44 at the end of the third quarter, preventing

the Chargers from driving to the basket and forcing one-shot possessions. The Eagles gained a distinct edge in defensive rebounding and outscored the Chargers 20-9 in the fourth, seizing a 57-49 lead with four minutes left in the game and keeping their zone immovable to cruise to a 70-53 win. Schuh was very pleased with how his team competed in the first three quarters and into the fourth in their very first night of prime competition. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a very good team,â&#x20AC;? Schuh said of the Arlington squad that made it to the state tournament last year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Nobody

MARYSVILLE — It’s that time of year again, so the Marysville Fire District is asking you to help keep the wreath green. As you drive by any of the fire district’s stations, you should notice a giant wreath covered in green bulbs. It’s part of the district’s annual “Keep the Wreath Green” program. As part of the program, the green bulbs are changed to red whenever there is a structure fire in the Marysville Fire District. The bulbs are changed to white when a firefighter anywhere in the United States dies in the line of duty. It’s firefighters’ way of reminding people that,

But not everyone is an early riser, so take heart, early commuters with a passion for community service, and others too busy to make a morning meeting, because Marysville Kiwanis is adding a night meeting once a month that may get your attention. Kiwanis currently meets at 7 a.m. every Tuesday in the Village Restaurant, located at 220 Ash Ave. The new evening meeting will be at 7 p.m. on the fourth Tuesday each month at the Village starting on Nov. 22. The Kiwanis Club is looking for men and women, 18 years of age and older, who want to become more involved in volunteerism and community service. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Kiwanis has done so much good for this community and its youth over the years, and its hands-on approach to helping is one of things that appeals to new
