MARYSVILLE — Pinewood Elementary, the Tulalip Boys & Girls Club and Allen Creek were just a few local focal points of the United Way of Snohomish County’s 19th annual “Days of Caring” volunteer event on Friday, Sept. 21, and Saturday, Sept. 22. “Each year, 1,000 volunteers serve more than 6,000 hours at more than 70 project sites benefiting nonprofits throughout the county,” said Neil Parekh, vice president of marketing and communications for United Way of Snohomish County. “Local companies, service clubs, families, individuals and even nonprofit groups come together to volunteer in Snohomish County.” On Sept. 21, Pinewood Elementary received a visit

from an estimated 40 volunteers who focused on rehabilitating the school’s disused garden and cleaning up its campus, while a number of the school’s students volunteered to help paint a mural designed by Beth Ha, the Pinewood Elementary PTSA secretary, Reflections chair and art docent who coordinated the day’s labors with United Way and its volunteering organizations. “One way to make sure we don’t get graffiti is to show people how much we care about this school,” Ha said to a student painter when she asked why the mural was an important project. Ha clarified when speaking to adults that the garden “is probably our main project for today,” due to its demonstrated value in SEE CARING, PAGE 2

MARYSVILLE — While Windermere Real Estate at 801 State Ave. is a regular contributor to the Marysville Community Food Bank, they tried a new tack to raise funds and generate food donations on Saturday, Sept. 22. Although the day’s morning rain threatened to put a damper on Windermere’s first-ever car wash fundraiser for the food bank, event organizers reported that the skies cleared early enough for the brief good weather to draw even more cars to their wash than they suspect they would have received otherwise.

According to Dan Peterson, the managing broker for Windermere in Marysville, he and his fellow volunteers from that branch had raised $350 of their $500 goal for the five-hour event with nearly two hours left. “We had one person just hand us $250 worth of groceries that they’d bought at the local Safeway,” said Connie Redden, a realtor and broker at Windermere in Marysville. “A lot of folks have been dropping off food without even caring whether they get their cars washed or not.” Peterson estimated that his volunteers had washed 25 cars in the first three hours SEE FOOD, PAGE 2

Prouty also thanked Home Depot for offering a “huge discount” on supplies. In the 9300 block of 67th Avenue NE, Sound Salmon Solutions and the Adopt A Stream Foundation were joined by members of the Marysville YMCA Minority Achievers Program and United Way’s Youth United in planting 450 trees and shrubs, as well as 250 live stakes. “The live stakes are leafless willow branches that can take root and grow,”

said Brooke Clement, an ecologist with the Adopt A Stream Foundation who plans to return to the site on Saturday, Oct. 13. “We should have almost 800 trees and shrubs in this area by the time we’re done, but today we’re just working one-and-a-third of the 4.4 total acres of the site.” Clement explained that such coniferous plants provide deeper shade for the salmon than the reed canary grass already growing there, thereby affording them a better habitat. Marysville Assistant Fire Marshal David VanBeek, who dug holes for trees with Darryl Aoki, praised the number of younger volunteers for stepping up to become stewards of the environment, while Clement encouraged those who are interested in the Oct. 13 event to email her at brookec@streamkeeper. org.

of the event, and went on to calculate that Windermere raised the equivalent of approximately 1,500 pounds of food through their efforts throughout the day. “We really appreciate all the donations of both food and money we’ve received,” said Peterson, who noted that Windermere volunteers had also taken up residence at their traditional spot in front of the Marysville Safeway on State Avenue during the week leading up to the car wash. “We probably got a couple of hundred bucks a day from that as well. It used to be that the food bank could

buy six pounds of food for every dollar they received, but now it’s down to two pounds per dollar” Windermere in Marysville is continuing to collect for the food bank, with all proceeds going directly to the food bank itself. Volunteers are accepting cash, checks and non-perishable food items at their office, and will be stationed at the Marysville Haggen Food & Pharmacy on 88th Street on Thursday, Sept. 27, and Friday, Sept. 28. “The food bank’s shelves are really low this year,” Peterson said. “The need is always great, no matter what community you live in. This will enable many people to eat that would have otherwise gone hungry.”

previous years as an educational tool. “We’ve also got people repainting lines on the playground, sweeping and washing the courtyard, and refreshing the planters,” Ha said. “Projects like this are powerful in times of economic hardship. Budget reductions continue to pose challenges, but we don’t have to be victims to that. We need to get creative. Our community still cares.” David Reed, an employee of participating Everett company Intermec, had four children who attended Pinewood Elementary before they grew up and started families of their own, so he was pleased to grab a broom that Friday and return to familiar environs. “I was surprised that they picked this location,” Reed said. “It feels very comfortable, though, and in all the years my kids went to school here, this is the first time I’ve taken part in a project to help out this campus, so it’s a nice opportunity to show my appreciation.” Pinewood Elementary fifth-graders Jakob Van Marter and Xavior Curry agreed that they were glad to pitch in for their school, even though they struggled fiercely to uproot some deep-seeded weeds. On Sept. 22, the refurbishments of the Tulalip Boys & Girls Club were rescheduled

slightly due to the morning’s “rain blessing,” according to Administration Office Manager Diane Prouty. “We were going to prime and paint the timber,” Prouty said, as more than 50 volunteers from Community Transit and Aviation Technical Services in Everett grabbed hammers, shovels and other tools. “Our volunteers were still able to stain and fix the picnic tables, and relocate the red rocks from up front to the marshy areas in back to form a path to the storage shed.” Volunteers also replaced the timber, mulch and plants in the planter areas around the building, but postponed their planned work on the playground since it’s set to receive a rain cover later on, which would disrupt the soil and surrounding areas. As with the Allen Creek project taking place in Marysville that same day, blackberries and vine-berries were also removed. “It looks gorgeous,” Prouty said of the results of the volunteers’ toil. “We never could have gotten around to these repairs and improvements on our own. We don’t even have any maintenance or janitorial staff, so it’s up to all 26 of the Tulalip Boys & Girls Club staff members to keep the inside clean, which is an all-day job.” Prouty hadn’t even realized that the Tulalip Boys & Girls Club was eligible for a United Way Days of Caring project before she spoke with Anita Rutherford,

Arlington’s DABA ushers in new board past few years — including the Clock, the Gazebo and “the characters that line the streets during different seasons” — while acknowledging what she saw as strains between DABA and “its parent organization,” the Chamber. “Sometimes the best thing about goodbye is good,” said Drush, who specified that she spoke only for herself, and not for her fellow former Board members. “When the vision of the parent is different than that of the child, it is a constant struggle and it wears you down.” Drush questioned the Chamber’s decision to conduct its fall soiree on Camano Island, rather than Arlington or Smokey Point, and contrasted this with what she saw as the former DABA’s practice of doing business with Arlington people. “It remains to be seen if those who align themselves more with the Chamber’s vision for downtown Arlington will be successful,” Drush said. “For the sake of the town and merchants, I do hope they are. I will continue to shop and eat downtown to support my local small businesses, and be grateful to those who choose to offer goods and services here, when they could relocate elsewhere.”

In the meantime, DABA’s October Hunt will run from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Oct. 13, this year with a giant bouncy house and a complete

section for kids with its own booths, where they’ll be able to sell or trade their toys for Christmas money. These booths will cost $5

each, with all proceeds going toward Kids’ Kloset in Arlington. Call Whitis at 425-508-0435 for more information.

ARLINGTON — The Downtown Arlington Business Association ushered in an almost entirely new Board of Directors on Wednesday, Sept. 19. With the resignations of Chris Bateham and Chris Mirante occurring in the months prior, the resignations of four other Board members — M.J. Drush, Debora Nelson, Julie Tate and Mary Andersen — were accepted at the Sept. 19 DABA meeting and made effective immediately. In their place, DABA installed remaining Board member Marilyn Bullock as the new president, Nola Smith of “The School Box” as vice president, “The Purse Lady” Debbie Whitis as secretary/treasurer, Rich Senff of Action Sports in Board Position 1 and Tyler Moore of Pepperjack Home in Board Position 2. These new officers were nominated under DABA’s rules of order. Contrary to word that had circulated previously, Mary Jane Harmon emphasized that DABA will not be dissolving on Wednesday, Oct. 3. “As valuable as volunteers are to any organization, when they decide to resign, we must let them

go,” said Harmon, managing director of the ArlingtonSmokey Point Chamber of Commerce, under whose umbrella DABA operates as a committee of the Chamber. “We want to thank the previous Board members for all the time and effort they invested in DABA this year.” Harmon also reassured the Arlington community that DABA-supported events such as the October Hunt, Hometown Halloween and Hometown Holidays “will be the wonderful events that Arlingtonians have loved for several years now.” During a discussion of expenditures at the Sept. 19 meeting, Senff moved to freeze expenditures until the new treasurer could review DABA’s financial situation, and the motion was passed. At the same time, that meeting’s committee reports included Whitis’ notes that the October Hunt is still scheduled for Saturday, Oct. 13, in the City Hall parking lot, and Smith’s solicitation for ideas to contribute to Hometown Holidays, which are still planned for the first weekend in December. “Everything is and will continue to be transparent,” Harmon said. Drush reflected on what she deemed DABA’s great accomplishments over the

State still ignores fish-blocking culverts

abitat is the key to salmon recovery, but ongoing loss and damage of salmon habitat is driving down salmon populations across western Washington and threatening tribal treaty rights. No matter BILLY FRANK JR. how well we manage harvest and hatcheries, if there is no habitat, both the salmon and our treaty-reserved rights are lost. Unfortunately, the state of Washington continues to ignore its obligation to enforce one of the first laws on its books that requires fish passage at culverts under roads. The state has been ignoring that obligation for more than 100 years. Today, hundreds of state-owned culverts block fish passage throughout western Washington. Meanwhile, the state has been unwilling to hold its own agencies accountable, refusing to enforce its own environmental laws. The problem got so bad that the tribes were forced to ask the federal courts to step in. Almost five years ago, a federal judge issued a summary judgment saying that our treaty-reserved fishing rights prohibit the state of Washington from allowing fish-blocking culverts under its roads. State agencies told the Legislature back in 1995 that fixing culverts was one of the most cost-effective strategies for restoring salmon habitat. The cost and benefit ratio, they said, increases right along with the number of culverts repaired per year increases.” In 1997 state agencies estimated that every dollar spent fixing culverts would generate four dollars worth of additional salmon production. Recent studies support the state’s findings. Unfortunately, not much has changed since the court ruled in favor of the tribes and our treaty rights. While the Department of Natural Resources appears to be taking its responsibility seriously, the same cannot be said of the Department of Transportation. DOT’s lack of commitment to fishblocking culverts — and obeying state laws — hasn’t changed. Before the 2007 summary judgment, DOT was correcting about ten culverts per year — three using funds appropriated just for culvert fixes, and seven more as part of highway projects. Since the court’s ruling DOT is still only correcting about three culverts per year with its dedicated culvert funding, but has actually decreased the number of repaired culverts to eight per year. DOT can’t make the excuse that increasing funding to fix culverts will affect state general fund programs such as education. DOT uses only funds from the state transportation budget for fixing culverts, and that budget is separate from the general fund. Clearly, DOT doesn’t feel that it must respect the court’s ruling that it is violating the treaty-reserved rights of the tribes. There are still 930 more culverts for DOT to fix. At this rate, it will take more than a century to repair only the culverts that are currently blocking fish from many miles of available habitat. All the while, more culverts will fail and block salmon. It’s this same failure to address habitat that got us in this situation to begin with. The state will not enforce its own laws or respect the treaty rights of tribes, and there is no accountability. All of us, both Indian and non-Indian, are losing hundreds of thousands of salmon for every year that DOT fails to fix its fish-blocking culverts. The state needs to stand up to its obligation to the salmon, the tribes, and everyone else in this state and fix those culverts.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Thanks for supporting the food bank The Marysville Community Food Bank wishes to extend a huge thank you to the organizers and volunteers of the Helping Hands, Linking Arms Food Drive that concluded last weekend. And, a big thank you to the citizens of Marysville for the tremendous support of this effort. At a time when the Food Bank shelves are the lowest of the year, 10,218 pounds of food and $1,186 was delivered to our doorstep on Tuesday by a incredible force of volunteers. Dell Deierling, Director Marysville Community Food Bank

A reminder to small businesses After purchasing several products as gifts from a well-known Arlington business, our family member (the recipient) found that one of the items didn’t fit. She and her partner, with receipt in hand, entered the business and kindly requested to do an exchange. They were met with skepticism and a less than cordial attitude. They live out of the area and are not your “typical” couple. As others entered the store, including my husband who had been detained outside and is well known by the owners, they were greeted with a friendly smile and “Hi, how can we help you today?” When the business owners were then introduced to our family member by my husband there was a surprisingly remarkable change in their attitude. Our family member felt slighted and disrespected as she experienced the sting of

discrimination that is all too common. Whether black, white, gay, straight, tattoos or piercings that are attached to every visible orifice, people must be treated with equal and mutual respect. Acceptance of an individual does not mean agreement. We all struggle with prejudice but to small-business owners I say, if you want your business to thrive in this economy, take a good look in the mirror and ask yourselves why you are any more precious in God’s eyes than any other one of his creations. And then treat everyone accordingly. One business in town has now lost our patronage. Suzanne Yost Arlington

Women’s rights? Offensive! That is what Suzan DelBene’s latest television ad was to me. First, because of the internet and all sorts of editing programs, she was able to insert her opponent, John Koster, holding “yes” and “no” signs as if in answer to what she perceives are women’s rights. Taking your opponent out of context and deliberately misstating his/ her positions is the kind of politics we can no longer afford. We should require our candidates address our serious economic and social problems with reasonable, thoughtful responses not with cheap shots, lies and ad hominem attacks. Second, regarding the issue of “women’s rights,” there is actually only one “right” specific to women, the 19th Amendment adopted by the States in 1920 stating that “rights of citizens of the U.S. shall not be denied … on account of sex.” All the other rights, both natural — a.k.a. Laws of Nature — and

of Nature’s God and those established by the Bill of Rights and other adopted amendments to the Constitution are all available to all citizens of the U.S. equally. Finally, Ms. DelBene has confused the passage of laws with “rights.” Laws can be challenged and/or changed by one judge in one court of law while “rights” are upheld for all citizens in perpetuity. She uses as rights, the “right” of women to abortion on demand and to birth control. One is a law, the other is just a product available to consumers. Since the Supreme Court has granted abortion, it would take another legal court case to change that law — but even the Supreme Court cannot confer the status of a “right.” Mr. Koster could not forbid a woman from seeking or getting an abortion, period. Regarding birth control, again there is no law forbidding the use of birth control, and therefore, there is no argument. However, I believe what Ms. DelBene is really saying is that it and abortion should be free. While I cannot speak for Mr. Koster, I, personally, do not agree to pay for someone else’s birth control or abortions, just like I don’t pay for cigarettes, gambling or liquor either for those who make those lifestyle choices. Living in a “free” country means each citizen is “free” to make his/ her own lifestyle, academic, social and political choices with the rights in the Constitution applying to all citizens; however, none of those mean they are also “free of charge.” I suspect that Mr. Koster would never in a million years deny a woman to make her own choices as allowed by the law, and he actually would uphold her “right” to do so.

Cascade Skagit Health Alliance holds health fair Becca Cofer, medical assistant. “The fires in Eastern Washington have been causing some breathing problems, but it’s also the beginning of cold and flu season. We even had some people come in who had pneumonia.” The beginning of the cold season made the Germ Busters station particularly appealing, especially to children. The Cascade Valley Germ Busters use a solution and black light to test the effectiveness of people’s hand-washing techniques. First participants spray on a black light solution, then

wash and dry their hands. They then place their hands under a black light to see if there is any residual solution. “We take the Germ Busters around to schools and sporting events,” said Russell. “It’s really a hands-on way for kids to learn the right way to wash their hands, because it’s key to preventing disease.” Each health fair attendee received a Passport to Health card, which had places for test results to be written to document their current state of well-being. “We are hoping that by coming in and seeing the

facility when they’re not sick, it will urge people to contact us when they need a provider in the future,” said Russell.

SMOKEY POINT — Dozens of area residents took the opportunity to get free health screenings at the Cascade Skagit Health Alliance’s free community health fair on Saturday, Sept. 22. The health fair took place from 9 a.m. to noon, and offered screenings for blood pressure, body mass index, bone density, glucose, pulse oximetry, sleep disorders, as well as diabetic foot screenings. Several local health care providers held presentations on urology, diabetes education, family medicine, orthopedics and pediatrics. “We’ve had about 100 people come through,” said Catherine Russell, community relations director at Cascade Valley Hospital. “A lot of people who came in did so because there is so much unemployment and a lot of people don’t have health insurance right now. This is an opportunity for them to come in and get checked out and meet faceto-face with health care providers.” One of the most popular of the free screenings was the glucose test. “Diabetes is a big problem in our area, so it’s really important for people to come and get checked out,” said Russell. Richard Jauch came from Camano Island to participate in the free health fair. “I wanted to find out how my body is working and get a little bit more down to the nitty gritties,” he said. “I wanted to get a little better idea of how senior citizens operate.” One of the tests in which

he participated was the glucose screening. “I wanted to learn more about diabetes care and prevention,” said Jauch. “My twin brother has diabetes, but I don’t have it. I learned how pre-diabetes stuff is a concern. I’ve already cut out the sugar and eat no sweets, so the presentation just reinforced it.” Another diabetes related screening that had a lot of participants was the diabetic foot screening. “It’s available so that they can check the bottom of their feet,” said Russell. “A lot of people with diabetes are overweight so they can’t check their feet. A lot of the time they will re-ulcerate and not know it.” Some participants were surprised by what the health screenings showed about their bodies. “For the last year I’ve been doing outdoor labor-intensive work, so I was surprised to find that my bone density was actually below normal,” said Annamaria Clark, who was advised to do more weight-bearing exercises to build up bone density. Clark’s family was among many locals who took advantage of the screenings due to being uninsured. “I brought my parents because they don’t have health insurance, and my dad wanted to take advantage of it to get screened,” she said. A pulse oximetry screening tests one’s pulse and the oxygen level in their blood, and was also popular. “This tests the oxygen level in the blood, so people with asthma and COPD can check to make sure they are getting enough oxygen,” said

MARYSVILLE — The Marysville Arts Coalition and the Downtown Marysville Merchants Association drew an estimated total of more than 100 attendees to Third Street and its surrounding environs on the evening of Thursday, Sept. 13, by showcasing 10 area artists in their shops for Marysville’s first “Art Walk.” Mary Kirkland hosted Glen Oberg, the watercolor painter whose work inspired her to take up the hobby three years ago, at Hilton Pharmacy for the three-hour Art Walk, and during the week leading up to the event. Both Kirkland and Oberg shared their appreciation for the Art Walk’s turnout and the responses they each received from those who stopped by her store. “It was rewarding and superb,” Kirkland said. “They’re great artists, and we were able to supply them with a nice venue. I was surprised by the number of visitors we saw.” “Everyone’s been very enthusiastic and kind,” said Oberg, who claimed that his renditions of landscapes, seascapes and street scenes don’t require much effort on his part. “I try to make my paintings as simple as I can, while making sure they’re readable. I like pictures with a lot of stuff in them.” “I’ve got a bunch of Glen’s work in my house,” said Jim Ballew, the city of Marysville’s Parks and Recreation director, who swung by Hilton TIMELY Our weekly format Pharmacy to COVERAGE: chat with combined with our websites enables us to bring Kirkland. “His justwant, make you paintings the news you when you need it. you want to be in those places,” Kirkland said. “If peopleSTAFF: Current staff AWARD-WINNING buy members his paintings they Globe and The Arlington of Thhere, e Marysville can hang them on their walls Times have received more than 45 international, and be there whenever they national and statewide awards for news, sports want. ” and editorial design, photography, special Collage artist writing, Janet Myer

against each other. I like to make warm colors burn together in people’s brains.” Over at The Vintage Violet, silk scarf artist Karen Lyons invited the shop’s visitors to paint a sample scarf within a pattern she’d already outlined. “I started in this field by painting on cotton for a quilt,” Lyons said. “Cotton doesn’t move like silk, though, and paints do totally different things on silk. It’s like wearing watercolors.” Lyons praised the “Art Walk” as a fun activity that had already attracted enough budding artists to

paint slightly less than half her silk scarf by nearly the midway point in the threehour event. “This is a medium you can let other people share in,” Lyons said, as she mixed some colors to fill in a few squares of the scarf ’s pattern herself. “You can’t just let other people join in making other types of paintings with you, but this scarf will get raffled off to one of our Art Walk attendees, and whoever wins it will know that they created part of it.” Kirkland praised the Marysville Arts Council for their role in organizing the

first “Art Walk” in Marysville, and echoed Marysville Arts Council President Beckye Randall’s assessment that the

event was a success sure to become a recurring happening in historic downtown Marysville.

and her host, Darlene Scott of Carr’s Hardware, agreed that they’d benefitted from equally complimentary audiences. “This gives us a chance to show off some of the talent we have right here in Marysville,” Scott said. “Janet has exciting art that’s been pretty well received. I just wish I could get to see the other stores’ artists while we’re doing this.” “This Art Walk has been great,” Myer said. “We’ve gotten a lot of people coming through here, and we couldn’t have done it without the merchants. I’m just really grateful to them, and I hope this event is only the beginning.” Myer explained that her collages are designed to be touchable, by utilizing layers of textured material sealed in varnish, and she also seeks to incorporate bright colors into her work as much as possible. “I did one collage of a fishing village with raisins for the roofs and a hair net for the fishing nets,” Myer said. “It adds a dimension to it. I choose colors from the opposite ends of the color wheel, so that they’ll vibrate

Tulalip pummels Highland Christian 88-22 BY LAUREN SALCEDO lsalcedo@arlingtontimes.com

ARLINGTON — The Tulalip Heritage Hawks dominated the field on Sept. 21 as they competed against Highland Christian in a non-conference away game ending in an 88-22 victory for the Hawks. Tulalip Heritage scored early in the game, with five touchdowns in the first quarter alone. In the first two minutes of the second quarter, the team scored another two touchdowns, making it tough for the Knights to make any sort of comeback. “We have 12 returners this year and that makes a big difference,” said Hawks head coach Jim Kavaney. “All of our guys who returned from last year are playing way better than they did last season.” The Hawks offense held the game for them, with strong running plays and pass completions.

“D.J. Kidd is doing an awesome job and Payton Comenote is a really strong new player,” said Kavaney. “Dontae Jones is doing a much better job as quarterback this year.” Kidd, Comenote and Jones all scored touchdowns in the Sept. 21 game, but offense isn’t the only area where the Hawks are proving their strength. “Kyle Jones is relentless on defense. He had three sacks the other night,” said Kavaney. “He really plays hard and he’s been really strong.” The contest against Highland Christian was seen as a practice game for the team, as a warm-up for more competitive upcoming games. “The first three games haven’t been league games, so they weren’t as competitive,” said Kavaney. “We’re seeing how people play at first. Everybody’s got to learn two or three positions,

so that later in the year, if we get injuries then we are covered. It’s not like the big schools when a quarterback gets hurt, you can just bring in the other quarterback.” Lummi and Neah Bay are ranked No. 1 and No. 2 in the league, and they make up Tulalip Heritage’s upcoming opponents. “It’s a tough league, and the games are definitely going to be tougher starting this week,” said Kavaney. “But we’ve got pretty good skill people and pretty good team speed.” Going into the upcoming games, the Hawks are focusing their talent and building on what they have. “We are just trying to do everything right and make it a team effort, not individuals. It’s an ultimate team game,” said Kavaney. “We are also going to be working on tackling. That’s been our weakness, which happens when you have a

bunch of new kids.” Overall, the team has high hopes for the season. “The attitude’s been really

good. They work really hard. I’m hoping it continues. If it does, I think we’ll be very competitive,” said Kavaney.

Tulalip Heritage is set to play Lopez at MarysvillePilchuck High School on Saturday, Sept. 29 at 1 p.m.

Lakewood looks for success on the pitch BY LAUREN SALCEDO lsalcedo@arlingtontimes.com

LAKEWOOD — For the Cougars girls soccer team, the 2012-13 season is about building up from last year and shaping a team that will

be strong for years to come. First-year coach Steve Brown, who replaced Jeremiah Wohlgemuth two weeks before the season began, is working with a group of young players and

hoping to build up a viable program. “We lost 12 players last year, 11 to graduation and one switched to cross country,” said Brown. “There are only a few returning players

this year.” According to Brown, returning varsity players that have been critical are Kennady Bonnallie, Cassidy Fry and Maddie Holmes on defense and Hailey Duitsman in the midfield. Last year’s team placed in the top 16 in the state, so expectations are high for the current Cougars team. They had to start from the basics to work their way up. “Since I am a first year coach, there was a lot of familiarization with me and with each other in the beginning. We were trying to figure out where the kids would work out the best,” said Brown. “Once the teams were established, we really focused a lot on the development of the team and getting them to work together.” With a group of young players, building team efficiency is important because most of the girls have different soccer backgrounds. “They all play on select teams, but they are all on different select teams. A lot have never played together

at the school level,” said Brown. The first two games of the season were non-league contests, including their first game against the 3A level Shorewood, which ended in a 1-0 loss for the Cougars, and a 3A level Marysville Getchell game that ended in a 0-0 tie. “Some of our skills that have been obvious in the first few games are in our defense,” said Brown. “We don’t give up a lot of goals. Part of that is because three of our four returning players are on defense.” In turn, offense was a bit of a struggle for the team at first. “We went three and a half games before we scored. There are a lot of freshman and sophomores on the team and we are focusing on getting the offense all on the same page,” said Brown. But even with a young team, the group managed to outscore South Whidbey on Sept. 20 in a 3-1 victory, which Brown attributes to the team focus. “We are just focused on

our skills and it’s starting to show.” According to Brown, some newcomers or new varsity players that have done really well are Aly Eastman and Kendal Hurd in the midfield, Jennaka Larson as a goal keeper and Stephanie Smith as forward. Upcoming games that should prove exciting are the Oct. 2 home game against Archbishop Murphy and the Oct. 9 home game against Granite Falls. The Cougars already played Archbishop Murphy and Granite Falls in away games, but lost 1-0 in both games. “Those games are going to be really exciting,” said Brown. “We only lost 1-0 to Archbishop Murphy and they didn’t even score until the last 13 minutes of the game. With the game being at home, they really like their chances and they are confident they will do better the second time around.” The Cougars face Sultan at home on Sept. 27 at 6 p.m. and Cedarcrest away on Sept. 29 at noon.

Community Center honors namesake

MILITARY BRIEFS Destiny A. Mills

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — Although the building already bore his name, there was no marker on the Ken Baxter Community Center to explain who Baxter himself had been before his passing earlier this year. Community activist Preston Dwoskin reflected on Baxter’s legacy after reading newspaper articles about his life — which included nearly three decades each as a volunteer firefighter and a member of the Marysville City Council — and was inspired to contact Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring and the current City Council about memorializing Baxter at the Community Center which had been named after him while he was still alive. City of Marysville Parks and Recreation Director Jim Ballew suggested installing a plaque to commemorate Baxter’s life and achievements, and Marysville Fire Chief Greg Corn was among the first to share his recollections of Baxter during the Thursday, Sept. 13, ceremony to dedicate the plaque. “Ken put in 15 years as a volunteer firefighter here in Marysville before he was elected to the City Council,” Corn said. “To avoid a conflict of interest, he resigned with us, but joined the upstart fire department over on Hat Island. Ken was a good scrounger. He got a lot of equipment just by pestering people.” Baxter served as a volunteer firefighter for Hat Island for another 15 years, and when the current Marysville Fire District was officially instituted in 1992, Baxter became one of the six founding members of its Board of Directors. “Ken was instrumental in laying the foundation for the 20 years that have followed,” Corn said. “Every one of the Board’s decisions was in the best interests of our residents.” Even after his 26 years on the Marysville City Council ended in 1998, Baxter paid frequent visits to the offices of the Marysville Fire District and City Hall.

Navy Seaman Apprentice Destiny A. Mills, a 2005 graduate of MarysvillePilchuck High School, Marysville, Wash., recently completed U.S. Navy basic training at Recruit Training Command, Great Lakes, Ill. During the eight-week program, Mills completed a variety of training which included classroom study and practical instruction on naval customs, first aid, firefighting, water safety and survival, and shipboard and aircraft safety. An emphasis was also placed on physical fitness. The capstone event of boot camp is “Battle Stations.” This exercise gives recruits the skills and confidence they need to succeed in the fleet. “Battle Stations” is designed to galvanize the basic warrior attributes of sacrifice, dedication, teamwork and endurance in each recruit through the practical application of basic Navy skills and the core values of Honor, Courage and Commitment. Its distinctly ‘’Navy’’ flavor was designed to take into account what it means to be a Sailor. Kirk Boxleitner/Staff Photo

From left, Preston Dwoskin, Joann Baxter and Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring stand proudly beside the plaque summarizing Ken Baxter’s life, at the Ken Baxter Community Center on Sept. 13. “Ken always wanted to know more about the equipment,” Corn said. “He would ask us what type of pump we were considering, and who the manufacturer was.” “Ken loved everything about Marysville,” said Nehring, who first met Baxter during his own run for the City Council in 2001. “He was always very mild-mannered and soft-spoken, and gracious in taking the time to talk to me.” Nehring praised Baxter for focusing on the “non-glamorous” fields of water and sewage within the city’s Public Works Department, and credited Baxter with laying the groundwork for water independence, which Nehring deemed a priority for Marysville to this day. “Ken knew that you can’t have economic development and quality of life without a healthy, functioning water and sewer system,” Nehring said. “When we looked at purchasing and maintaining equipment, Ken wanted to make sure it would work as long as it could.” Although Nehring encouraged Baxter to schedule appointments to see him as mayor at City Hall, since Nehring didn’t want to risk being out

of the office if Baxter happened to stop by, Nehring noted that Baxter was always happy to take time out of his day to visit with city staff regardless. “This city was his life, and we’re the richer for it,” Nehring said. Marysville City Council and former Planning Commission member Steve Muller recalled Baxter as a longtime family friend who was committed to helping out his hometown, while Baxter’s daughter, Marianne Powers, spoke briefly on behalf of her mother, Ken’s widow Joann, and the number of other Baxter family members who had turned out for that morning’s plaque unveiling. “I’ve heard all the stories about him,” Powers laughed. “I’ve heard everything that he did for this city and for the fire departments, both here and on Hat Island.” Although Dwoskin never met Ken Baxter, he began volunteering at the Ken Baxter Community Center back when he was still a freshman in high school, and he admitted that this occasion had left him feeling “emotional” as well. “I wanted people to know who he was,” Dwoskin said.

Military, overseas voters kick off general election voting

The voting period for this fall’s highly anticipated statewide general election has begun, with Washington’s military and overseas voters being the first ones to receive and fill out ballots. Snohomish and Washington’s other counties sent out roughly 50,000 general election ballots to military and overseas voters on or before Saturday, Sept. 22. Many of these voters are expected to use the option of emailing or faxing back their completed ballots to their home county elections offices. For the 2012 primary election, 50,456 ballots were issued to the state’s military

and overseas voters. “On behalf of all 39 counties and my Elections Division staff, I’m proud and honored that Washington’s military and overseas voters are the first to vote in our elections,” said Secretary of State Sam Reed, Washington’s chief elections officer. “There are thousands of Washingtonians serving in the military and stationed in faraway lands. Many of our citizens are working or studying abroad, or serving in the Peace Corps or other organizations. Regardless of their locale, we hope our military and overseas voters take this opportunity to vote

and help shape our government, even while they are currently far away from us.” Washington has received acclaim from the Department of Defense for its quality voting service and outreach to military and overseas voters. Reed was honored this July by the Pentagon’s Federal Voting Assistance Program for his work in assisting military and overseas voters from Washington state. Snohomish was among the eight counties that had the highest number of ballots sent to military and overseas voters for the primary, with a count of 3,525.
