MARYSVILLE — The gymnasium of MarysvillePilchuck High School was overflowing on the evening of Monday, June 11, as the M-PHS Class of 2012 became the first to have its own graduation ceremony since the creation of the Small Learning Communities that now make up Marysville Getchell High School. “You’ve accomplished more than any other graduating class I’ve seen in the past 15 years,” M-PHS Principal Andrew Frost said of the students, who totaled $2 million in scholarship awards. Frost went on to praise the parents and guardians in the gym’s bleachers, as well as the school staff seated before him, for helping the students achieve this milestone.

“We don’t make widgets at this school,” Frost said. “We support and challenge young people to dream big.” Valedictorians Melanie Shelton, Chris Mischenko, Courtney and Corey Coombs, John Ell and Alexa Plant elicited laughter by taking a tag-team approach to their speeches at first, before each one settled into their own topic. Shelton recalled a motivational speaker who had asked her to imagine what it would be like if everyone wore chalkboards that told others the things that they couldn’t say. “The point of this would be to help people realize and appreciate what those around them are going through,” said Sheldon, who touted her classmates’ caps and gowns as akin to such SEE 2012, PAGE 2

Cancer survivors take to the track of the Marysville-Pilchuck High School stadium for the first lap of this year’s Marysville-Tulalip Relay For Life on June 9.

MARYSVILLE — At noon on Saturday, June 9, the MarysvilleTulalip Relay For Life had already raised $116,000 for the American Cancer Society. By 9 a.m. on Sunday, June 10, Relay organizers were asking the remaining participants for $100 to give them an even collection total of $137,000. They actually wound up going a bit over, and collecting $333 in that final hit instead. “This has been a tough year for everybody in a lot of ways,” Mo Olason said. “Everybody who’s here wants to be here,

though, and has worked hard to be here. I’m proud to be part of this cancer-fighting army.” This year at the MarysvillePilchuck High School stadium marked Olason’s last as event chair for the Marysville-Tulalip Relay For Life, since Kristin Banfield will be taking over that role for next year. Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring joined former Mayor Dennis Kendall at the event, and praised the dedication of all the volunteers who have put together the annual Relay. “That this many people have raised this much money makes SEE RELAY, PAGE 2

RELAY FROM PAGE 1 me so proud of this community as its mayor,” Nehring said. “I hope it inspires you as much as it does me. The city of Marysville backs this event 110 percent.” J.D. Drollinger, of the National Relay Advisory Team, visited this year’s Marysville-Tulalip Relay For Life to credit its participants with contributing both directly and indirectly to the American Cancer Society’s efforts. “Relayers raise money for research, and researchers are working to find a cure for cancer,” Drollinger said. “Therefore, Relayers are responsible for finding a cure for cancer.” Marilyn Hatch was named the event’s “Hero of Hope” survivor, having participated in Relay previously and weathered six bouts with cancer within the past 12 years. “To this day, I don’t understand why they don’t give out those little packs of Kleenex at Relay,” Hatch laughed, as she recalled her first Relay. “It was very emotional, and from there,

The Arlington Times • The Marysville Globe

I went home and let my family know that I’d signed them up for Relay the next year. I’ve been going to Relay ever since.” Owain Weinert was one of the younger cancer survivors at this year’s Relay, having been diagnosed two years ago, and he and his dad Alex both touted the benefits of Camp Good Times, which takes in kids like Owain and their siblings, such as Owain’s brother Dylan, for a full week of activities. “It might be less practical than spending money on scientific research, but it brightens the days of young cancer patients,” Owain Weinert said. “We were tired,” Alex Weinert said. “All we saw were dark days ahead in that infusion room. Camp Good Times received our boys with open arms, and when they came back, they were different kids. They’d even made new friends.” “The national average for Relay fundraising is $33 per person,” Olason said. “For us, it’s been more than $200 per person. No one can do everything, but everyone can do something.”

2012 FROM PAGE 1 chalkboards in communicating the work they’d invested in achieving their shared goal of graduation. “Think about the things you have accomplished, and consider the messages that would have been displayed on your chalkboards these past four years. I especially want to commend those of you who have had personal challenges that you have overcome to get here. Those of you who have had ‘I have a learning disability’ or ‘My home life is terrible’ permanently engraved on your invisible chalkboards.” Mischenko praised M-PHS’s selection of sports, clubs and classes for fostering his classmates’ personal growth, and anticipated that college would help do the same. “Throughout our four years, we experienced amazing extra-curricular activities, made wonderful friends from nearly every part of the school, and learned from some of the greatest teachers how to be better people,” Mischenko said. “Since we’ve already taken such a huge step from middle school to high

school, we’ll all be ready for the next big step in our futures.” Courtney Coombs likewise credited the friends she’d made at M-PHS with steering much of the course of her development, while Corey Coombs offered a tongue-in-cheek account of the perils of procrastination as a student. “I’m no psychologist, but I think having friends with similar goals in life allows for a strong support system and is great encouragement for anyone to accomplish what they want in life,” Courtney Coombs said. “I urge everyone sitting before me to remember these relationships you’ve had with others during your high school experience and, wherever you go, never forget the memories which will forever link us together.” “Procrastinating has become a habit for many of us, but we need to change that in college, the work force or whatever any of us are going into,” Corey Coombs said. “We can’t depend on waiting until the last moment possible to get things done. We need to be responsible with our time and efficient with what we do, but that change can wait till tomorrow,” he laughed. Ell underscored Shelton’s message about the importance of hard work by

identifying it as a necessity in both high school and beyond. “In high school, working hard isn’t just in the books,” Ell said. “It’s in every part of your life, whether it’s sports, music, jobs and stress, not to mention getting up every morning at 6 a.m. to walk around in this gorgeous Washington weather,” he laughed. “Hard work takes sacrifice. Otherwise, why it would be hard?” Plant quoted two former presidents in her remarks, first by echoing Woodrow Wilson’s calls to “enrich the world,” then by recalling a question she’d asked Jimmy Carter at the 60th anniversary of the World Affairs Council in Seattle this January. “How might young people like us make a difference?” Plant repeated her question. “President Carter’s response was basically, ‘Go do something.’ If there is something we want to see change or happen, then we need to get together, talk about it and plan a course of action. As simple as it sounds, this is both empowering and true. Our voices need to and can be heard. If we follow our passions and stick to our goals, we will all find success and achieve greatness along the way.” For their reflection speeches, Hailey Zurcher lauded

the M-PHS Class of 2012 for establishing an identity of its own, in the face of a suddenly diminished student body on the M-PHS campus and stadium stands going from packed to nearly empty during certain events, while Morgan McFalls submitted a somewhat counterintuitive piece of advice. “I have no wise words, because I’m as lost as the rest of you,” said McFalls, who nonetheless went on to encourage his classmates to embrace failure. “Every one of us will fail, but every remarkable thing has come from countless failures leading to success.” After graduation, like many students, Jesaikah Tagi received multiple leis of dollar bills and candy from her family, which is a Hawaiian tradition. “It’s so exciting,” said Sue Tagi, Jesaikah’s mom, who still has a fourth child left to graduate from the Marysville school system next year. “You have to encourage your kids as they go through this.” “Make sure you get involved,” Fia Tagi, Jesaikah’s dad, advised other parents. Jesaikah herself plans to attend first Everett Community College, then Seattle Pacific University to become a dental hygienist, but in the meantime, she advised other students, “Live life to the fullest.”

Lakewood’s Class of 2012 looks to future

lsalcedo@arlingtontimes.com

LAKEWOOD — As Lakewood High School graduates prepare to enter the “real world,” hundreds of LHS students spent their June 11 commencement ceremony celebrating the past and looking toward the future. The Lakewood High School gym was filled with graduating seniors, staff, friends and family who came out to support those who were heading out to face world ahead. Valedictorian Aaron Nech spoke to his fellow classmates. “High school is much more than a public learning institution. It’s a memory,” he said. “I know that each one of you will move on to do great things. I see a room full of fantastically talented adults that will find their own unique place in this world whether it be as an engineer, a doctor, a teacher or simply that smiling person you can always count on.” Nech went on to discuss how his experiences at Lakewood helped shape him into the person he is today. “I’ve watched heartbreak, triumph and fortitude. I’ve experienced love, commitment and selflessness. I love you guys and wouldn’t trade these memories for anything,” he said. Nech ended his speech with some wise words for the future. “Keep fighting through life and never, ever give up.” Fellow valedictorian Kiley Brown said she was inspired by the stories of the individuals with whom he was graduating. “These individuals that sit in front of you today have faced many obstacles, such as senior projects, cougar PATH

notebooks, coursework and senior presentations, all while trying to fight off senioritis. But we all made it here, for graduation,” she said. But graduation is not the end of the road for Lakewood seniors. “The possibilities are endless when we believe in ourselves and our capabili-

ties,” said Brown. “Although we are now done with high school and it might sound cliché, but it is not the end, but a new beginning. There is so much in store for the Class of 2012 and life will allow us to go further than we ever thought possible.” Student speaker Jacob Micheletti urged classmates

to embrace the future and themselves. “I’ll leave you with this — never be afraid to follow your dreams,” he said. “Everything you do, do it with love in your heart. And don’t be afraid to feel something for what it’s worth, because not much in this life is guaranteed. I wish the best of luck to every one of you.” Jeff Sowards, Lakewood history teacher and coach

for track and cross country also addressed the crowd. To graduates, he challenged them to go forward with a set of morals in mind. “I challenge you to be patient, kind, respectful, committed, accepting, selfless, honest and humble,” said Sowards. “In short, do these things with love in your heart and your memories will be rich, full and numerous.” LHS senior Patricia Rivera

Teresa,

I just got home and my husband explained what you did for us. Thank you! My gosh, that is the kindest thing anyone has ever done. I know my parents will very much appreciate seeing this printed as friends send it to them in the mail (old people always do that!) along with wishes. You have gone above and beyond in customer service and it is sincerely appreciated! It has been a sincere pleasure working with you on this project.

said she felt as though her time at Lakewood wasn’t quite done. “I’m a little excited, but I feel like school’s not over,” said Rivera. Jacob Bruley said he was glad to be finished with high school. “I’m pretty excited,” said Bruley, who plans to become a computer technician after attending Western Washington University. “I feel like I’m ready to move on.”

City looks to honor Pride of Marysville

hile community volunteers, merchants and city of Marysville employees pulled together last April to give downtown Marysville a successful JON NEHRING once-over spring cleaning to polMARYSVILLE ish its image during Clean Sweep MAYOR Week, there were plenty of citizens and business owners throughout the community putting hard labor into their own yards, homes and store fronts to usher in spring. A drive around Marysville streets and neighborhoods on a sunny day presents abundant examples of spruced-up homes and businesses tended by people who care about their properties, and take pride in their neighborhood and community. If you are one of those residents or business owners, or you know someone who is, we want to hear from you. The city earlier this year kicked off the new Pride of Marysville neighborhood improvement awards as a way to recognize residents and business people who take pride in cleanliness, appeal and livability where they live or work. If you haven’t yet nominated a home, business or neighborhood, you still have until the deadline of July 2. Nominating someone couldn’t be easier; it only takes three minutes to complete our brief online form at http://marysvillewa.gov. All that is needed is the nominee’s address, type of property (residential or commercial), selected award category, a short sentence or two on why the property deserves to be honored, and contact information in the event that we need to reach you. We don’t even mind if you nominate yourself — or the other handy person or green thumb under your roof! If you don’t have access to the web, nomination brochures are also available at city offices. Complete the form in the brochure and return to Marysville City Hall, Attn: Doug Buell, Pride of Marysville Awards, 1049 State Ave., Marysville, WA 98270. A committee will review the different selections and choose the honorees. Winners will be notified in advance, then publicly honored at the July 16 City Council meeting, where they will be presented with engraved yard markers for placement in landscaping, yards or store frontage as a way to share their accolades with others for a much-appreciated job well done. There are four award categories to choose from, but choose only one: ■ Best Home/Pride of the Neighborhood — Homes consistently well-kept with well-manicured lawns and colorful landscapes, or enhanced with new paint, landscaping or other significant aesthetic improvements. ■ Best Block/Neighborhood — Based on general/neighborhood entrance/gateway appeal and improvements made. ■ Best Business — Business sites with most curb appeal that have

Shining despite difficult times

artnerships with our community — now more than ever — help us through tough

times. Marysville Rotary and Soroptimists recently provided more than $60,000 in scholarships for Marysville seniors. The Tulalip Tribes’ $1.26 million grant reduced class size, provided new middle school science materials and much more. Opportunity Expo 2012 brought dozens of partners together to expose 1,000 students to hundreds of college and career options. We celebrate success together with so many great partners including United Way, Marysville and Tulalip Boys & Girls Clubs, city of Marysville (city, police, library), Rotary, Soroptimists and Kiwanis, Marysville Tulalip Chamber of Commerce, YMCA, PTSAs, GAC,

The National Education Association has provided multiple grants, quality professional development and featured Marysville’s work on the national stage many times. Quil Ceda and Tulalip have been recognized nationally for the way their staff works together to use data to improve student learning.

Marshall, Marysville Cooperative Education Program, and Mountain View outperformed their peers statewide in reading, math and science. Many other schools outperformed in specific areas. Totem was recognized for their success in 8th grade Algebra. Marysville Getchell took another national grand prize for instructional design. Tenth Street Middle School and A&T High School were named two of the state’s “Innovative Schools.” More teachers received their National Board Certifications including Sherri Ballew, Carol Beyer, Che-Mai Gray, Joseph Klomparens, Stephen Parker, Debbie Vincelette and Theresa Blake.

Engaging students for success A

s a district, we believe that every student can be successful so we work to provide as many different opportunities as possible to engage students and foster success. Weston High School, founded in 1986 by Linda Weston, is one of those opportunities. At that time, Linda Weston was an Assistant Principal/Vocational Director at Arlington High School. She was concerned that students who dropped out of school had no other options within the district; they needed a place to go. With this vision in mind, Linda created the Arlington Alternative School where she remained principal until 1992. Upon retirement in 1994, the student body voted to change the name of the school

GUEST OPINION

AMIE VERELLENGRUBBS to Weston High School in Linda’s honor. Since that time, Weston High School has evolved, as have graduation requirements and the needs of high school students in Arlington and the surrounding community. Currently, 172 students are enrolled for some portion of their educational program. Weston offers a traditional six-period day experience, houses the Online Academy

and offers a combination of the two programs to provide flexibility and engage students. Within the traditional sixperiod day, Weston includes a daily half hour intervention support period called Panther Period, and the district Science Technology Engineering and Math (STEM) Robotics program. Panther Period provides half an hour of intervention support for all students. Students are assigned a specific intervention based on current performance data for three-week increments. At the end of each threeweek cycle student placement is re-evaluated and placement changes are made as needed. The STEM Robotics program SEE SUCCESS, PAGE 5

Outstanding Advocate, Anne Carlson, was named School Security Officer of the Year, Randy Davis earned state recognition (M-P track and field), Doug Pellerin (eighth-grade football) and Marlin Fryberg, (Heritage basketball) were honored at the state and local levels by their coaching associations, Heritage High School Principal Shelly Lacy was honored by Women of Color, and Anthony Craig completed his Ph.D. In addition, students were invited to meet with President Obama (Dallas Duplessis, Tisen Fryberg, Katia Brown and Laura Enick), earned a National Merit Scholar as a junior (Stephani Hren-Graham), led their teams to earn high marks in the Knowledge Bowl, earned a perfect score on the national Latin exam, and excelled in sports, music, and drama competitions as well as robotics,

SUCCESS FROM PAGE 4 has had many positive benefits. Students come from the other high schools in the district to participate in a year long Robotics class that meets the requirements for a third year math credit, Video Game Programming and/or 3D Animation. These three classes lay a foundation for students who wish to continue their study through the Sno-Isle Skill Center DigiPen program. However, the engaging nature of these classes make them extremely enticing to students who do not wish to continue in this specific field. Weston is looking forward to expanding our STEM offerings next year with the addition of a Guitar Manufacturing course where students will apply significant science and math to actually build an electric guitar by the end of the school year. Another new offering will be Forensic Science, where students will

Miranda Cooper (Bio Med) and Theresa Ambat (Totem) were recognized at the state-level for PTSA Reflections, Kais Ben Mariem (ACE) received the presidential award for his community volunteer work and Haley Spooner and Stephanie Neel (MMVHS) will represent Marysville in national competition in Florida and Rafael Achacoso represented M-P at the DECA state competition. Our Board of Directors was recognized as a Board of Distinction for their student achievement goals. Thanks to a dedicated teaching force and caring support staff, the district continued to make gains in three critical “steps to success” — thirdgrade reading, eighth-grade Algebra and a 20 percent increase in graduation rates. District and school “report cards” (on the web) highlight other successes. Marysville has now completed all 2006 bond construction projects

— on-time and under budget including Grove Elementary, Marysville Getchell High School, land for future growth, more than promised in technology, and completion of all major repairs. Thanks to good stewardship, a partnership with Lakewood Schools, and $8 million in state funding, we will meet one more critical need with a transportation co-op facility that will reduce operating costs. The district has also qualified for more than $1 million in energy grants and rebates over the last four years.

participate in a year-long simulation-centered around forensic investigation of a crime scene. Both these options provide an engaging, hands-on experience for students to learn and apply science, technology, engineering and math. For students who cannot attend the regular daytime program classes, the Online Academy is an alternative learning experience program where students develop an individualized learning plan for their progress via online curriculum. Students do most of their work independently and meet with an instructor a minimum of once per week, usually after regular school hours. What makes the Online Academy a step above other online programs is the fact that we have a district instructor on site in the evenings four days per week to meet with students, provide additional assistance, and work with parents as needed. Weston’s mission doesn’t stop at the end of the school year. Summer School pro-

grams are also offered at Weston High School. This year students have three different format options to continue learning and earning credit through the summer. Students can retrieve credit in classes they had previously failed by attend a two-hour class each day between July 9 through Aug. 3. In this option, students are required to attend for the full two hours, every day and receive individualized help of a teacher during this time. The cost is $125 for each .5 class retrieved. Another model through the Online Academy allows students to earn credit in any online course by working independently throughout July and August and meeting with a teacher once a week. This is a great option for students who have travel plans, who have challenges with daily transportation or who want to take extra classes to free up their schedule for next fall. Finally, students who have an IEP can participate in an independent sum-

mer school program, for IEP Math, IEP English, as well as an accommodated curriculum for World Geography, Economics, Government, U.S. History and World History. The cost for this program is $150 per class, but costs for summer school classes for all students in the Arlington School District who qualify for free or reduced lunches, and to 11th and 12th graders who are behind in meeting their graduation requirements. If you are interested in discussing any of these options for your student, please contact Amie Verellen-Grubbs at 360618-6340. Weston High School has an incredible staff dedicated to the success of every student and we are so honored to serve the students and families in this community.

these efforts reflect well on the community, enhance Marysville’s appearance, and could inspire others to do the same. The way that we improve and maintain our homes, landscaping, businesses, buildings, and gardens communicates an image of Marysville, one that we hope will promote more community and neighborhood pride.

fast approaching, remember that if legal “safe and sane” fireworks are a part of your family and friends’ celebrations, Marysville Police and Fire District officials caution you to obey local laws and take safety precautions to prevent injury to yourself and others. Discharging of legal fireworks is permitted from 9 a.m. to 11 p.m. on Wednesday, July 4 only. Use of illegal fireworks, or any fireworks outside the proscribed day and times, carries stiff fines and penalties.

See the city website for more details. Safety of individuals and property is our utmost concern. Finally, keeping in the spirit of our initiatives such as Clean Sweep Week and the Pride of Marysville Awards to create and maintain a cleaner community and neighborhoods, we ask fireworks users to remember that after you light it up, clean it up.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Thanks to the Sheriff’s Office Our students, parents and staff are indebted to the Snohomish County Sheriff ’s Office for the rapid response and aid provided when addressing a potentially dangerous situation in our school district recently. On behalf of Lakewood School District Staff and Board of Directors, I wanted to express my sincere gratitude in particular to Capt. Ty Trenary, Lt. Kathi Lang, Sgt.

MARYSVILLE — The Adult Trike Races have been cancelled for a second year a row, but the rest of the Marysville Strawberry Festival’s events are still set to take place as planned. Jodi Hiatt confirmed that the Adult Trike Races that had been scheduled for Friday, June 15, will not be able to go ahead due to a lack of participating teams. “It is a really fun spectator event and I know the teams that have participated in the past had fun,” said Hiatt, who still hopes to revive the event for future Strawberry Festivals. In the meantime, Funtastic Shows’ “world’s finest carnival” will come back to the Marysville Middle School play field from June 14-17. The carnival hours will run from 4-10 p.m. on Thursday, June 14, and Friday, June 15, as well as until 11 p.m. on Saturday, June 16, and until 5 p.m. on Sunday, June 17. Opening times for June 16 and 17 will depend on the weather. This year’s Market in Asbery Field will also return

them through the weekends during the school year. “The children come to school on Mondays with their thoughts on school and not their stomachs,” said Dell Deierling, director of the Marysville Community Food Bank. “We have been providing this service to 19 kids since the start of May and the results are remarkable. Given the success of this program, we are gearing up for the 2012-13 school year in hopes of serving even more kids. Raffle tickets will be on sale at the food bank’s booth at the Market. Purchase tickets for $1 each for your chance to win a $50 spa gift certificate, a $20 gift certificate for Don’s Restaurant, a Starbucks gift card and more. All proceeds will go toward the purchase of food to support the “Food For Thought” program. The Marysville Strawberry Festival Talent Show will take to the stage of the MarysvillePilchuck High School auditorium again at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday, June 14. The M-PHS auditorium is located at 5611 108th St. NE in Marysville, and doors open at 5:30 p.m. before the Talent Show starts. Tickets are being pre-sold for $4 and will go for $5 at the door, and children under 7 years old will be admitted for free. Call Marcy Giesler at 360-6536584 for more information. This year’s Marysville Strawberry Festival Rose Planting ceremony continues on in the venue it gained in 2010.

This free event is open to all ages, and light refreshments will be offered afterward. With its registration and setup time starting at 4 p.m. — followed by judging which commences at 5 p.m., the parade participants lining up around 5:45 p.m. and the parade proper kicking off at 6 p.m. — the Kiddies Parade on Saturday, July 16, offers a host of surprises each year, as entrants ranging from individuals to groups of 20 or more sign up for one of five categories. Bobbi Easley, who began coordinating the Kiddies Parade just last year, explained that the categories have remained the same each year, from the costume categories for both individuals and groups, to the animals category for pets

ranging from dogs to horses that their owners (or riders) have dressed up. The floats category’s restriction is that its entries can’t have motors, while the wheels category can include everything from bicycles to wagons. Each of the five categories of entrants will have its own staging area at the start of the Kiddies Parade route, at Totem Middle School on Seventh Street. The parade will then head south on State Avenue until it reaches Fifth Street, at which point awards will be given to the participants in Comeford Park. The grand prize winners of the Kiddies Parade will get to appear in the Grand Parade later that same day. Entry forms for the Kiddies Parade can be found online at http://maryfest.org. The Grand Parade officially starts at 7:45 p.m. on 76th Street, to ensure that entrants are rolling southbound on State Avenue in front of the TV cameras by 8 p.m. With any luck, the parade wraps up on Third Street and Alder Avenue by 10 p.m., just in time for the half-hour fireworks show. Carol Kapua reported that this year’s high school march-

ing bands are set to include both Marysville-Pilchuck and Marysville Getchell, the latter making their Strawberry Festival Grand Parade debut. Likewise, while the Dolls have put in Grand Parade appearances in previous years, this year also marks the first combined performance by the Dolls & Gentlemen Drill Team and Drill Line. Although American Legion Post 178 and the Arlington Drag Strip Reunion are familiar fixtures in the area, they’ve never had entries in the Grand Parade before, but like “Survivor” contestant Michael Jefferson of Marysville, they’ll be cruising down State Avenue as part of the event this year. Call 360-659-7664 for more information. The Boys and Girls Club’s Marysville Unit is hosting its own open house to coincide with the Strawberry Festival on Friday, June 15, from 6-8 p.m. at 1010 Beach Ave. The open house is free and will include a barbecue, games and other activities. The event will also includes sign-up opportunities for the club’s summer camps. For more information contact Christina Trader at 360659-2576.

Whooping cough Sec. of State Reed speaks to Marysville Rotary epidemic leads to more vaccinations BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

The ongoing whooping cough epidemic in Washington is driving higher demand for vaccine among adults, as people protect themselves and their families from pertussis. More adults are getting vaccinated, showing that they’re getting the word that prevention measures like vaccination, and staying home when they’re sick, help protect those most atrisk. “Adults in Washington are doing their part by getting the whooping cough booster, called Tdap,” said state Secretary of Health Mary Selecky. “The increase in adult vaccination is vital to protecting babies, who are the most vulnerable because they’re too young to be fully vaccinated. Thank you to everyone who’s gotten vaccinated, and I want others to follow their example.” Between March 25 and May 26 of this year, the state immunization registry recorded 82,453 doses of Tdap for adults age 19 and older. That’s well more than double the 34,171 doses recorded in the same time period last year, showing the growing demand for Tdap in the face of the epidemic. Data from health plans also show an increase. Group Health gave almost 60 percent more Tdap to adults in April of this year compared to April of 2011. Premera Blue Cross is seeing a similar trend, with the number of Tdap vaccinations in April of this year up by more than 70 percent for its members compared to an average month. These increases are good news, especially with the total reported pertussis cases for the year to date now at 2,092, the highest since the 1940s.

“We’re asking everyone to doublecheck with their health care provider to make sure they’re up-to-date on vaccinations.”

Mary Selecky Washington Secretary of Health “We’re asking everyone to double-check with their health care providers to make sure they’re upto-date on vaccinations,” Selecky said. “Our reported case count has climbed above 2,000 already, with half of the year to go. It’s vital that teens and adults get the Tdap booster.” The state Department of Health bought more than 27,000 doses of Tdap vaccine for uninsured and underinsured adults, to remove a cost barrier. Making these extra doses easily available means more people can get vaccinated. Getting vaccinated protects the person getting the shot and helps protect people at highest risk for complications, like babies and pregnant women. The Tdap vaccine is for people 11 years and older, and can be found by contacting your health care provider, local health agency or pharmacy. Only one shot is needed. Younger children need five doses of DTaP by the time they’re 7 for best protection. It takes about two weeks from the time of vaccination to be protected. For more information about the epidemic, visit the state Department of Health’s whooping cough epidemic website at www.doh. wa.gov/YouandYourFamily/ IllnessandDisease/ WhoopingCough.aspx.

MARYSVILLE — Washington Secretary of State Sam Reed laughed as he described his visit to the Rotary Club of Marysville on Wednesday, June 6, as part of his “farewell tour,” but even though this marks the last of his 45 years of public service, Reed offered a serious message of concern for the future. Reed urged the Rotarians and their guests at the noon luncheon to focus their efforts on fostering civility, moderation and bipartisanship, not only within their local community, but also among those whom they support for elected office, on up to the state and national levels. “Between talk radio, cable and blogs, the noisiest get the most attention,” Reed said. “The debt crisis just last year was one of the worst examples, but even when we discuss what’s going on in the National Association of Secretaries of State, everyone agrees that nothing’s happening right now. It’s all gridlocked.” Reed identified the members of community service organizations such as Rotary and Kiwanis, the latter of which he belongs to, as the leaders within their communities, and anticipated that candidates for office would seek out local Rotarians’ endorsements. “Don’t support people who operate in a polemic way,” said Reed, a Republican who has nonetheless advised candidates from his own party not to adopt overly strident conservative stances. “When one party has a majority

in both houses of the legislature, what happens all too often is that they’ll just ram through policies, which the other party will rush to undo as soon as they come into power. We saw that with healthcare reform.” Looking ahead to November, Reed expressed optimism over both the degree of voter turnout that he expects and the ways in which the political campaigns and the election process alike will be conducted. By contrast to the recent Wisconsin recall election, Reed doesn’t believe the Washington governor’s race will engender anywhere near the same amount of acrimony, and he sees Washington’s vote-by-mail system yielding greater turnout and offering better security from voter fraud than the traditional polling places. “We’ve got open seats for governor, attorney general, auditor, secretary of state, the Senate and the House of Representatives, and we’ve also got a good presidential race shaping up,” Reed said. “This is the first race for lieutenant governor since 1996 that’s been hot. Control of the state Legislature is in play, and we’ve even got ballot measures on medical marijuana and same-sex marriage. If you can’t find an issue or a candidate to care about this year, then my goodness,” he laughed. Among Reed’s lasting achievements is his defense of Washington’s open primary, which he took pride in being able to justify as a top two primary, by using language from Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, whom Reed acknowledged had actually been using those arguments to speak

After this year, Reed is looking forward to spending more time with his wife, who

had requested that he retire, as well as his grandsons. “Unlike my friends who have gone into lobbying and consulting, I really am retiring,” Reed said. “I might do short stints as an advisor, but I’m not making any commitments.”

Snohomish County Arlington Relay for Life welcomes USS Nimitz set for June 23-24 business leaders, the Port of Everett and Snohomish County Executive Aaron Reardon had worked to bring USS Nimitz to Snohomish County. At the event, Reardon echoed Stephanson’s sentiment when he told attendees, “We are honored to have USS Nimitz and her crew in Snohomish County. We’ve worked vigorously to get you here, so please know that the work you do is appreciated and embraced by everybody in the community.” According to Troy McClelland, president and CEO of Economic Alliance Snohomish County, Naval Station Everett pumps $463 million into the local economy. “That’s 5 percent of the local economy,” McClelland said. “Although most of that is salaries, goods and services for the ship, a lot of that is the money sailors are spending at local businesses, car dealerships and in the housing market.” Military personnel posted at Naval Station Everett have

also been generous to the community. Navy personnel frequently volunteer with local community groups, and since 2006 they have contributed $1.5 million to the Combined Federal Campaign, managed by United Way of Snohomish County. “The Navy is interwoven into the fabric of our community,” said Dr. Dennis G. Smith, president and CEO of United Way of Snohomish County. “It was our pleasure to welcome them to their new home.” The highlight of the event was a presentation by Capt. Jeffrey S. Ruth, commanding officer of USS Nimitz. After offering his thanks for the “exceptional welcome” they’ve received, he told attendees it was “reassuring to be able to leave our families in the warm, welcoming Snohomish County community while we go out to sea.” Approximately a dozen sailors from USS Nimitz attended the event, including members of its Color Guard.

ARLINGTON — While this year’s Marysville-Tulalip Relay For Life is done, the 2012 Arlington Relay For Life still lies ahead, on the weekend of June 23-24. Kay Duskin has been actively involved in helping to coordinate the Arlington Relay For Life since its debut in 2010, and she reported that it’s already recruited 121 teams made up of 1,148 registered participants, who have raised more than $176,000. “We’ll have lots of new and expanded events in this year’s Relay, including a ‘Mr. Relay’ contest, two entertainment stages, stadium scavenger hunts, a ‘cocktail’ party for survivors, and some great food concessions,” Duskin said. “With our Disney theme, we have plenty of kid-friendly activities planned too.” This year’s Arlington Relay will also help pitch in for the Arlington Community Food Bank, as each of its “Luminaria” bags will be anchored by cans of food, all of which will be donated to the food bank after the Relay. As always, this year’s Arlington Relay For Life will take place in the John C. Larson Stadium at Arlington High School. The opening ceremony is set to kick off on Saturday, June 23, at 1 p.m., followed by the

In the meantime, those looking to support this year’s Relay still have a succession of fundraisers to take part in between now and then, with a vendor fair at 202 N. West Ave. slated to run from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday, June 16. That same day, the Relay “Team Hope” is offering a car wash at the Co-Op on

Olympic Avenue from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. The “Champions of Hope” Relay teams are conducting a Zumba fundraiser on Friday, June 22, from 6:30-8:30 p.m. for $10 per person. Last year’s Arlington Relay For Life raised more than $290,000, beating the American Cancer Society’s goal of $250,000 for the event, with 155 teams and 1,849 individuals.

EVERETT — On Wednesday, June 6, Snohomish County officially welcomed officers and sailors from USS Nimitz to the community with a luncheon event attended by more than 200 business and community leaders. United Way of Snohomish County and Economic Alliance Snohomish County, organizers of the event, used the proceeds to make a $6,000 contribution to the Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society, which provides financial, educational and other assistance to members of the military and their families. Everett Mayor Ray Stephanson issued a proclamation declaring June 6, 2012, as USS Nimitz Appreciation Day, and said, “Our community is enriched by the vitality, spirit and diversity of Navy families. We look forward to engaging the USS Nimitz family as neighbors, friends and colleagues.” Stephanson, the state’s congressional delegation, local

Berry Run kicks off 2012 Strawberry Festival BY LAUREN SALCEDO lsalcedo@arlingtontimes.com

LAKEWOOD — The annual Strawberry Festival Berry Run was a success on June 9, as more than 100 runners signed up for the one mile and 5-kilometer

courses. The turnout this year was a little bit smaller than in previous years, and although the decline was unexplained, cloudy and muggy weather on Saturday, June 9, may have

been a factor. People of every age and physical fitness level joined the race, for many different reasons. “I first started doing 5K’s while trying to lose weight,” said Michelle Fancher of Marysville, who raced in the Seattle Marathon six years ago. “I’ve been doing it ever since.” Fancher brought two of her friends with her to the Berry Run, who are glad to have a new physical fitness habit. “She sucked us into it last year,” said Valencia McNair. “I love it. They’re addicting.” McNair said she uses race opportunities to challenge herself. “It’s not a competition with everyone else. I keep all my numbers and write my times on them, so I can see how I’m doing,” she said. The Berry Run was the second 5-kilometer race in one week for Cindee Lyons and her second race overall. “I love it,” she said. “After my first one I was already addicted.” The women said that the location of the Berry

Run, at the Plant Farm in Lakewood, was particularly appealing since they all live fairly close. “It’s nice that it’s a local race,” said Fancher. “Most of these races are in the Seattle or Kirkland areas.” “It always goes toward a good cause,” said McNair, who grew up in Marysville and was involved in previous Strawberry Festival events. “I like to do 5k’s that actually support something.” The Berry Run is hosted by the Lakewood High School cross country team, and funds raised at the event help send their top runners on a yearly trip to Stanford, where they can learn a lot from collegiate level runners. Preston Davis, a Lakewood junior, is hoping to be one of the top runners next fall so that he can have a shot of going on that trip. “The top seven runners get to go. I’m about seventh or eighth right now so I am going to have to work really hard over the summer,” he said. Support for the trip is not the only reason Davis

enjoys working the Berry Run. “I like it because it helps support Lakewood and people get to come out and be active,” said Davis. As the first event in the Strawberry Festival week, festival organizers view it as an important race. “The Berry Run is the kickoff to our festival,” said Jodi Welch, vice president of Maryfest, the Strawberry Festival nonprofit. Lynne Walker-Kramer, another Strawberry Festival organizer, agreed. “It pumps them up and says, this is the start of the Strawberry Festival,” she said. Lakewood cross country coach Jeff Sowards announced winners once the races were complete, and Strawberry Festival royalty handed out medals and ribbons to those who placed in the top three of their age division. He also announced winners for drawings of several prizes including memberships to Team Fitness, free admission to the Imagine Children’s museum and one-month unlimited

tanning certificates. The first place winner for the women’s 19 and under mile group was Jessey Lian. First place for women’s 20-29 mile was Nikki Bristol. First place for women’s 40-49 mile was Marci Dehm. First place for the men’s 19 and under mile was Samuel Campbell. Steven Brown placed first in the 40-49 men’s mile and Peter Thompson placed first in the 50-59 mile group. First place in the women’s 5K age 19 and under is Veronica Hall. Casey Brown placed first in the 20-29 age group. Rene Guisti took first place in 30-39 and Kris Tebb placed first in 40-49.

Community remembers Juan Mendoza BY LAUREN SALCEDO lsalcedo@arlingtontimes.com

MARYSVILLE — The memory of Juan Mendoza, a 16 year-old Marysville Getchell High School student and athlete who lost his life in an Oct. 24, 2011, car accident, is not being forgotten by his classmates or his community. The Marysville Getchell High School track was host to the Juan Mendoza Memorial Mile on June 1 at 5 p.m. At least 100 people attended the event to either participate in the mile run, or cheer on runners as they finished each lap. The MGHS athletics booster club served refreshments and handed out the green Juan Mendoza Memorial Mile 2012 T-shirts depicting a lightning bolt and a soccer ball, after Mendoza’s signature sport. They also sold blue lanyards that read “Win it for Juan Mendoza 2012.” “Win it for Juan became a theme for fall season,” said Jaci Legore Hodgins, a teacher and multisport coach at MGHS. “We wanted to do something to honor Juan because he was such an incredible

individual.” Mendoza was very involved in athletics and the memorial mile was organized as a way to both memorialize him and represent the first year of MGHS athletic departments. Participants ran the “Getchell Mile” — an MGHS physical education department invention that equates to roughly 1.66 miles. The group huddled prior to beginning and Legore Hodgins spoke to them all. “You are all here for the greatest reason,” she said. “You are going to make choices like this one all summer long and for the rest of our lives. We need to make good choices and take care of ourselves and each other. If you’re running this, know he’s running this with you.” The crowd put their hands together and shouted “Juan” on three, before lining up to start the race. Not all of those who attended the memorial mile decided to run, but many still attended as a way to memorialize Mendoza.

“I don’t even go this school,” said Alex Wright, who cheered on the sidelines and wore one of the green Juan Mendoza T-shirts. Wright said she has been close to Mendoza for years. “He’s my best friend since preschool,” she said. “I think these things are cool. They support him and remember him. I just saw his name and new I had to come.” Lars Kundu, a friend of Mendoza’s who has also involved in the Oct. 24 accident, attended the memorial mile as well. “I was just a part of the dedication of the Marysville Getchell Memorial Garden,” said Kundu. “It’s a way to commemorate Juan Mendoza and Alyssa Grant by creating a living memorial.” Kundu said that the memorial mile was just the sort of thing that Mendoza would enjoy. “It makes me glad that people are showing up to support Juan,” he said. “He was a runner, we met in cross country. He’d be happy to see all these people running for him.” Also in attendance was Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring and his family.

“Juan was a very close friend of my son Nathan and we are close with his family. Juan was really special to our family,” said Nehring. “But also as a mayor, anytime I can attend an event that raises money for a good cause I like to do that.”

Nehring said he was impressed with the turnout, despite the relatively short notice. “I thought it was a great event for a good cause,” said Nehring. “It really shows how much people care about Juan.”

Families enjoy the fun at Kids Party in the Park BY LAUREN SALCEDO lsalcedo@arlingtontimes.com

MARYSVILLE — Bouncy houses, baseball players, balloons and boa constrictors could all be found at the Strawberry Festival’s fourth annual Kids Party in the Park on June 9 at Asbery Field. “We definitely have more people here than last year,” said Kids Party director Dave Clemmons. “And it’s great that we have the Reptile Man here. He’s great, he’s been around for years.” Hundreds of people attended the six-hour event and had opportunities to participate in dozens of free activities. Kids lined up to have their faces painted, took turns playing in a choice of three bouncy houses, built projects with tables full of building supplies, practiced gymnastics with Rising Stars, practiced pitching with the Everett Aquasox and met Rowdy, the Everett Raptors mascot. Possibly the biggest crowd at the event gathered

around the Reptile Man, who displayed several different species of snakes, lizards, tortoises and even an alligator. Children responded in shock and awe as the Reptile Man pulled everything from a massive diamondback rattlesnake to a gaboon viper — the world’s second deadliest snake — out of his stack of bins. He allowed kids to pet a young American alligator, a tortoise and a python. Bouncy houses, which made their first appearance at the Kids Party this year, were very popular among the younger crowds. Shelley and Richard Tucker have been taking their children to the Kids Party in the Park for three years and were happy to see the bouncy houses this time around. “She loves the bouncy houses,” said Shelley Tucker, of her 5 year-old daughter Maria. “I think it’s so much more fun, they’ve never had bouncies here before.” Maria agreed with her mother and

said her favorite bouncy house was a tall one with three slides because “it’s bouncy and it’s the biggest.” For newcomers, the Kids Party was a great free event for a warm Saturday afternoon. “We just moved here last August from Seattle and Lynnwood,” said Christina Pluschke, who brought her 7 year-old nephew Troy Stedman. “We are learning all about the Strawberry Festival.” Pluschke said so far, the Kids Party was very entertaining. “It’s fun and he really loves it. He usually gets bored but it’s not boring. It’s great.” Attendees had the opportunity to buy ice cream, cotton candy, piroshkies, subs, shaved ice and more from a variety of food vendors. The radio station Movin’ 92.5 provided some entertainment and contest opportunities. Kung Fu 4 Kids offered presentations and information for the youngsters. Kids also received various free goodies from

different vendors including beaded necklaces and piggy banks.

The Kids Party was enough fun to guarantee attendance in the years to

come. “We’ll definitely come back again,” said Pluschke.

EVERETT — Marysville Police Officer Derek Carlile pleaded not guilty to the charge of seconddegree manslaughter in Snohomish Superior Court on Tuesday, June 5, as his attorneys echoed previous statements they’d made to the press about the shooting death of Carlile’s 7-yearold daughter, Jenna. The Mar ysville Police Department also announced on June 5 that they plan to conduct an administrative review on Carlile, pending completion of any criminal proceedings for his being charged with second degree manslaughter by the Snohomish County Prosecutor’s Office on May 22. Carlile currently remains on paid administrative leave. Seattle lawyer David Allen deemed it a tragic accident that Carlile’s 3-year-old son fatally shot Jenna with a loaded handgun that Carlile himself had left within reach, while Carlile had also left

his four children, aged 1 to 7, alone in the family van during a brief stop in Stanwood on March 10. Allen nonetheless denied that this qualified as criminal negligence, contrary to the charges filed by Snohomish County prosecuting attorneys Mark Roe and Lisa Paul. In the affidavit of probable cause filed by Paul, Carlile was accused of creating a substantial risk of death by leaving his unsecured handgun in a center console of the minivan, with the safety off. While Paul alleged in charging documents that Carlile’s actions constituted “a gross deviation from the standard that a reasonable person would exercise in the same situation,” Allen argued that Carlile’s carelessness did not qualify as gross negligence. Carlile himself reportedly told detectives that he hadn’t used the ankle strap of the gun’s holster or a locking compartment in the van

where the gun could have been placed, as he usually did, because he was in a hurry that day. According to the affidavit, Carlile and his wife knew the boy was fascinated with guns. Although Carlile began lifesaving efforts immediately after hearing the shot and rushing back to the van to discover Jenna bleeding, she died at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle on March 11. Paul did not ask the judge at the June 5 hearing to impose bail on Carlile, whose trial date was set for Aug. 24. The June 5 hearing marked Carlile’s first court appearance since he was charged by prosecutors on May 22 in connection with the shooting. While Carlile’s wife is not being charged, given that prosecutors credit her with alerting him to the unsecured gun in the van, Carlile himself could face 27 months in prison if convicted.

Community learns about healthy living

BY LAUREN SALCEDO lsalcedo@arlingtontimes.com

MARYSVILLE — Thousands of local kids, teens and adults spent Saturday, June 2, learning ways to become and stay healthy, despite rainy morning weather. The fourth annual Healthy Communities Challenge Day was held at the Allen Creek Elementary School’s play-field and hosted dozens of vendors and informational booths all with the intent of inspiring more active lifestyles in local families. “It was a lot of fun and very high energy,” said city of Marysville Recreation Coordinator Andrea Kingsford. “People were

definitely engaged. The families that were there stayed the whole time.” An estimated 2,500 people attended the day filled with fun and 892 people signed up for Snohomish County’s Get Movin’ program. In addition to a multitude of organizations and groups with booths, the Parks and Recreation department distributed 144 hula hoops, hundreds of small beach balls and whirligig toys that twirl in the air for the children. The event was host to a number of exercise and physical fitness demonstrations including Zumba, rock-climbing, bouncy houses, rowing machines, tumbling, hula-hooping,

calisthenics, golfing, jumpropes and weightlifting. Several booths offered healthy snacks and information on recreational activities including trail hiking, dancing and gymnastics. Nutritional and health information was also at hand, including antismoking materials and food intake education. Children enjoyed the more exciting aspects of being active, including Jasmine Steward, 7, who said the day was “really fun.” And the kids weren’t the only ones pleased with Healthy Communities Challenge Day. “This is our second time here,” said one local mother who directed a hulahooping tutorial under the pseudonym Turnity. “It’s great. It gives us an idea of what to do this summer and I love all the positive messages.” Members of the Marysville Cooperative Education Program were in attendance and glad to have a sizable crowd. “It’s a great event,” said MCEP Public Relations Coordinator Andrea Gipson. “It’s so involved. I think it’s just wonderful.” The challenge day also

featured live entertainment, including performances by the Hot Dog USA Jump Rope Team and Seattle magician Louie Foxx, who was recently featured on NBC’s “America’s Got Talent.” They also hosted ZumbaAtomic dancers and a performance by members of the Arlington School of Dance. Michael Jefferson, a recent “Survivor: One World” contestant and Marysville native, also attended the event and was open to giving out autographs. “People were able to meet him and ask questions about his experience on ‘Survivor,’” said Kingsford of Jefferson, who has previously worked in the Marysville Parks and Recreation Department. Parks and Recreation offered information on ‘95210 for Health’ a new campaign developed by Community Health Solutions for promoting child health and life-long healthy habits for individuals. It’s a list of five tips for staying healthy — get nine hours of sleep, eat five servings of fruits and vegetables, limit screen time to two hours a day, and eliminate sugary drinks and tobacco. The event was hosted

K e n t Lee Baker, 71 (Nov 4, 1940), passed peacefully on Monday, May 21, at 8 pm in the comfort of his family. He was born in Salt Lake City, Utah and married his loving wife, Roberta (née Lindberg), on February 10, 1962 in California, eventually settling in Washington. He is survived by his wife of 50 years; his four children Michele, James, Jennifer and Jeremy; 13 adoring grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. Kent is watching over his family alongside his parents, Vera Wardle Bell and Alfred J. McKinley Baker. After many years of interesting work, including the opportunity of being an engineer on the Apollo,

Kent retired and focused on two hobbies he loved dearly – nature and photography. Since his early twenties, he enjoyed photographing the beautiful places he hiked, climbed and camped, even building his own darkroom. After his retirement in 2000, he began selling prints at art shows. Eventually he joined the art guild and began to teach classes. His wife, Roberta, shares in his passion and continues to carry on their work. In lieu of flowers the family asks you to consider donations in his honor to Providence Hospice, PHHC Foundation, 2371 Wetmore Ave STE #500, Everett, WA 98201.

in collaboration with the Marysville Community Coalition, Healthy Communities Project, Snohomish County Get Movin’, Marysville School District, YMCA, United Way/Marysville Kids Matter, Sno-Isle Library, Cedar Grove Composting, Summit Rehabilitation, Hillside Church and many other organizations. The Marysville Lions Club brought in health screening vans for participants to check their blood pressure,

heart rate, vision, hearing and blood sugar levels, free of charge. A number of local sponsors helped to make the event possible, as well as several volunteers. “We also had some incredible teen volunteers from the Marysville YMCA and athletes from the Marysville School District. Their volunteerism is so valuable for this event,” said Kingsford. “They do a fantastic job and are so appreciated by all of the exhibitors who they help.”

Simon is a big bundle of love & quite a talker. He's very laid back, but actively seeks attention. He doesn't mind if it's a lap or a place next to you. He's been w/ us for quite awhile & has became the unofficial mascot of the shelter. In the morning he has quite a lot to say about his evening. When his head & back are scratched, his motor really gets going, so be ready for a loud purrer! To be even more adorable - he drinks water using his paw! Stop by & meet this cool guy.

Name: Webster Animal ID: 16358419 Breed: Basset/Lab/Retriever Age: 7 years Gender: Male Color: Black/w some gray Spayed/Neutered: Yes

Webster just loves everyone!! Wants to be w/his family all the time & just wants to play & love you. He needs to be put on a diet or exercised regularly to lose some weight & let him be the happy, active adult dog that he is. Webster loves ALL people, other dogs & his toys. He has never been around cats, so that is an unknown factor. Fall in love w/ Webster & you'll have an instant best friend.

All animals adopted from EAS are neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, wormed and treated for fleas. All cats are tested for FIV/FeLV.
