MARYSVILLE — While event organizers acknowledged that it got off to a slightly modest start, the Marysville YMCA’s first Summer Art Fair was soon bustling with onlookers in the parking lot outside of the Y and its adjacent Youth Development Center on the afternoon of Saturday, July 27, taking advantage of the milling crowds that had been drawn by the flea market in that same location. Half a dozen Puget Sound visual artists demonstrated their craft, including chainsaw carver Ken Ballenger of Seatttle, who sculpted a hummingbird statue from wood while fellow Seattle artist Tora Hennessey, a former native of Marysville, returned to her old hometown to involve curious kids in her interactive artwork.

“I do relief printmaking,” said Hennessey, before she guided a trio of teenagers in carving pictures and patterns into pieces of linoleum. “You can take these prints and send them to a commercial press, or hand-press them yourself onto walls, cloth or paper.” Hennessey offered both flooring linoleum and softer linoleum, the latter for those who preferred an easier carving material, and touted relief printing as a cost-effective method of reproducing images over and over. “Not everybody can purchase their own art prints, so this makes it more affordable,” Hennessey said. “I’m getting to like this style of art,” said 18-year-old Emily Barrett, as she and her 16-year-old sisters Bella and Elizabeth joined her in carvSEE FAIR, PAGE 2

Snohomish County Executive John Lovick addresses the Greater Marysville Tulalip Chamber of Commerce during its Business Before Hours on July 26.

TULALIP — “Jobs, jobs, jobs” was how John Lovick described his focus to the Greater Marysville Tulalip Chamber of Commerce on Friday, July 26, but during the Chamber’s Business Before Hours meeting that morning, the recently appointed Snohomish County Executive also recalled examples of leadership from his own life as he told the Chamber members that they were the leaders of their community. “I never in a million years thought I’d be the County Executive,” said Lovick, who

cited the significant legacies that his predecessors have established in that role. “I’m not Willis Tucker, or Bob Drewel, or Aaron Reardon, but I will do my absolute best for you. Snohomish County is a tremendously great place to live, work and play, and it has become home to me. Everything in the world that you could want is right here.” Rather than referring to the unemployment rate, Lovick noted that the county has an employment rate of 95.3 percent, and while he deemed this a statistic to be proud of, he also pledged to personally promote more jobs for county citizens.

“We have a right to be happy with where we are, but we shouldn’t be pleased until everyone who wants a job in this county has one,” Lovick said. “We should be talking about jobs every single day. We can’t expect others to support us if we don’t do it ourselves.” After praising Marysville Police Chief Rick Smith during his opening remarks, Lovick went on to commend the dedication and talent of all the city and county officials in Snohomish County, describing its city councils in particular as “the foot-soldiers of democracy.” SEE LOVICK, PAGE 2

At the next table over, two students from the Marysville YMCA’s Minority Achievers Program — 12-year-old Marina Lysova and 13-yearold Angelica Kupriyanov — contributed to a collaborative painting that will eventually be displayed in the Y’s front lobby, praising both the day’s events and their Russian MAP coordinator, Liya Orbeladze, for making the program enjoyable for them. “We’re not expert painters, but making things is fun,” said Kupriyanov, who had already shopped for jewelry at the flea market earlier that day.

Event organizer Scott Ballenger, who serves as the Marysville YMCA’s adaptive personal trainer, echoed Emily Barrett’s insistence that “it’s the idea behind art that’s most important” by explaining that the Summer Art Fair at the Y was designed to cater to all ability levels, including those with disabilities. “You can see it with the Voices of the Village as they perform,” Ballenger said, as Jon Dalgarn led the Village Community Services band of adults with disabilities between the Marysville YMCA and its Youth Development Center. “You have professional musicians working with people with disabilities. Jon told me that music is an equalizer, a unifying tool that removes the boundaries of ability and the divisions of skill levels. What we’re trying to show here is that other art is the same way.” Ballenger estimated that

LOVICK FROM PAGE 1 Not only did Lovick pledge that the Snohomish County Executive’s Office would operate with integrity, but the former County Sheriff and Washington State Patrol trooper also offered examples of what he saw as demonstrations of integrity from his past, including his run for the Mill Creek City Council in 1993. “I was only 22 years removed from growing up in segregated Louisiana, and I didn’t see a lot of people here who looked like me,” said Lovick, whose son wanted him

approximately 30 people with disabilities can be found using various services at the Marysville YMCA at 10 a.m. each day, Mondays through Fridays. “The Y has become a community center for the disabled,” said Ballenger, a 55-year-old wheelchairdependent paraplegic who broke his neck diving into shallow water at age 15. “We serve people with everything from spinal injuries to multiple sclerosis and cerebral palsy. This Summer Art Fair is providing introductions to art and integrating them for people with and without disabilities. The skill levels of this art are all over the map, but it doesn’t really matter. If art itself is the focus, it doesn’t matter whether you’re producing fine art or not.” Sarah McDonald took her daughter Kaela, a young teen with cerebral palsy, to the Summer Art Fair, and

to run for office in Mill Creek. “But my son said that he’d never heard me say that he couldn’t do anything he set out to do, which shows that kids actually listen to what you tell them. So I filed for the Mill Creek City Council Position 2 seat, and I went door-to-door to every house in town, five times each. By the fourth time, one man told me that he’d already voted for me and asked me not to come back,” he laughed. Lovick went on to win 65 percent of the vote in that race, which he deemed pretty good for a man who had never planned to be a politician before then. “I talk to young people all

the time and tell them to dream beyond what they believe they can do,” Lovick said. “I don’t think most people fail because they set their goals too high.” After he was honorably discharged from the Coast Guard, Lovick’s next goal was to become a state trooper, which was no easy feat given that, in his estimation, academy classes back then only accepted one black cadet each. However, in the mid-1970s, Lovick beat the odds by being one of three black cadets in his academy class of 35. “That was one of the best classes in the history of that academy,”

so it’s cool to check out what other kids have been able to do here,” Sarah McDonald said. “There’s not a lot she can make, but she has a

Lovick said, touting the number of his fellow cadets who went on to high-profile roles in law enforcement. Their instructor, Jerry Baxter, asked all three black cadets to stand, and defended their worthiness to wear the uniform to their classmates. “Years later, when I asked him about it, he explained his actions with the words ‘integrity’ and ‘cowardice.’ He’d seen previous cadets come and go, and he knew they were qualified, but he’d done nothing when he heard people talking about them. To his mind, someone had to protect the integrity of the process.” Within his first 53 days as County

Executive, Lovick has sought to uphold this standard of integrity by telling his office staff that, “If you see that we’re doing something improperly, or if I ask you to do anything illegal, unethical or immoral, you have my permission to go to the next level to report it.” Lovick deemed the leadership of the Chamber members in attendance to be at least as important as his own to the well-being of the county as a whole. “All of you are leaders, or you wouldn’t be in this room,” Lovick said. “And your leadership attracts jobs. We want businesses to want to relocate here and stay here.”

Trio faces off in race for LWSD Director District 1

BY LAUREN SALCEDO lsalcedo@arlingtontimes.com

LAKEWOOD — Registered voters in the Lakewood area have received their ballots for the Aug. 6 primary election which includes the race for the Lakewood School District’s Director District 1 position. Oscar Escalante, Pete Espinoza and Michael Blank are hoping to make positive changes to Lakewood schools, and spoke about the issues facing the district and what sets them apart.

Lionel ‘Pete’ Espinoza “Right now, the biggest issue we face is infrastructure,” said Espinoza. “We have to work on getting the funds ready to get the elementary, middle and high school up to par. I’ve been here since 1995 and haven’t seen much in the way of infrastructure improvement. There are a lot of things that need to be fixed, repainted and rebuilt.” Espinoza is the father of Lakewood students who are involved in the school’s athletic program, and he hopes to focus on improving the district’s sports facilities. “My big thing is track,” he said. “My kids run track and cross country, and the coaches would like to see resurfacing for the track. All the sports facilities seriously need attention, from the tennis courts to the softball and baseball fields. It’s the little things that have run down over time and need to be replaced. If we were to have new equipment, the athletes themselves would want to play and be proud to be from

Lakewood. Academics are essential, but a well-rounded sports program also plays a vital role for leadership, fitness and communication. These, along with academics, will go a long way to creating well-rounded students at Lakewood.” Having worked previously with the schools’ athletic programs, Espinoza said he has the determination to help improve the district. Having spent almost 30 years as a member of the United States Navy, Espinoza hopes that he can introduce students to military life and use connections he’s made with the military to better the education of students in the district. “I believe that I’m ready to go in there with some tenacity,” he said. “I’ve got some projects on my mind that I want to introduce to the district. Being a veteran and working for the Navy for 27 years, I have a lot of contacts with people for the projects I want, such as having Lakewood take on the Naval Junior ROTC program and get that started within the next four years or so.”

their input. That takes a lot of work and it’s not going to be something that’s going to be easy. I think it’s important to be clear and transparent to the community to provide information so that they can make the right decision.” Escalante has been a member of the board for 12 years and sees his experience as an advantage to reaching his goals for the district. “I think that in order to be effective in the community one has to have an understanding of how schools operate,” he said. “I have been working in the district for the last 12 years, and even before that I was a PTA member and PTA president for Cougar Creek Elementary.” Escalante said he has learned a lot from his experience on the board and from interacting with local superintendents. “A lot of it is learning how we as a community can make decisions that will impact the education of our kids,” Escalante said. “One has to know how to work with that, and I believe that’s one of the things that sets me apart. We have been making great strides, and our kids are getting an education that, in my opinion, is providing them with the tools they need to be ready to compete in the economy. Being a board member is not just something that happens overnight — a board member needs to understand exactly the dynamics and structure of the district they represent. That doesn’t happen overnight. It’s a process. Lakewood is going into its next phase. We are going to be

100 years old next year, so we need to modernize our school and bring the classrooms to the 21st century, and improve the overall safety and security for the kids in our schools. I think that’s a priority.”

Michael Blank “We are looking to build a new high school eventually, and right now we have three elementary schools, a middle school and a high school,” said Blank. “I think it would be so much easier to raze the buildings and build one giant building, with five different wings for each of the schools. With one giant building, administration costs will be cheaper — we would have one principal instead of five, cutting out a quarter million in salary costs that we could put back into teachers’ salaries.” Blank said his trade school education and career sets him apart from other candidates. “The biggest obstacle to face these kids is six months after they graduate college, whether or not they have found a job, the government is going to want them to start paying back the $75,000 in student loans,” he said. “We need to drop the stigma that says you can’t be a plumber, or an electrician, or a truck driver.” Blank believes focusing on skilled trades and technical education will help support kids who may not succeed with a college degree in this economy. “We want to fill these kids’ heads with dreams of grandeur and we never want to dash their hopes,”

BUSINESS DIRECTORY Oscar Escalante

“I believe that working with the community and trying to pass a bond to for the renovation of Lakewood High School and other schools is our biggest task right now,” said Escalante. “We need to be working very closely with the community, including the business community, and that will be challenging in a sense, considering the way things are right now with the economy. We want the community to understand that we are seeking

he said. “But the problem is, if we don’t tell them about reality, they will be working for minimum wage and realizing that it costs more to Lionel Espinoza go to work and keep a child in daycare than to not work at all. No one explains to these kids that the cost of daycare is $400 per week, and if they Oscar Escalante are making $10 an hour, they are losing money by working. We need to prepare them for things like this, but we never do. We are afraid to say that Michael Blank the emperor has no clothes. We have forgotten common sense. A college degree does not, at this point, guarantee a living wage. Two men can work at a fast food restaurant — one with a college degree and one without. The one with the degree spent a lot of money, going through the motions, completing his school work — but now he is thousands of dollars in debt and both men are still asking, ‘Do you want fries with that?’ We need to come up with an education plan and say, ‘This is how we fix the problem.’ That is my goal.”

he Washington state legislature deserves thanks for not caving in to demands from Boeing and others to require yet another study of fish consumption rates in Washington to tell us what we already know: Our rate is too low and does not protect most of us who live here. It wasn’t easy. A Senate measure requiring another study before beginning rulemaking on a new rate was tied to passage of the state budget, and nearly led to a government shutdown. Boeing and others have been trying to stop or delay development of a new rate because they say it would increase their cost of doing business. The fish consumption rate is part of the human health standards used by state government to determine how much pollution is allowed to be put in our waters. The 20-year-old rate of 6.5 grams per day — about one eight-ounce seafood meal per month — is supposed to protect us from more than 100 toxins that can cause illness or death. It’s a sad fact that Washington has one of the highest seafood-eating populations, but uses one of the lowest fish consumption rates in the country to regulate water pollution and protect human health. Another study could have delayed development of a new rate for three years or more.

CHILD CARE & SCHOOL DIRECTORY

BILLY FRANK, JR. Tribes have been reaching out to business and industry to discuss implementation of a new fish consumption rate. We are sensitive to possible economic impacts of a higher rate, and we want to continue working together to create a meaningful path forward. But those efforts have largely been ignored, and that’s too bad, because we have solved bigger issues than this by working together. We are encouraged, however, by the actions of Dennis McLerran, regional Environmental Protection Agency administrator. He has stepped forward to express his agency’s commitment to protecting water quality and human health in Washington. In a recent letter to Maia Bellon, director of the state Department of Ecology, McLerran pledged to support the state in developing a more accurate fish consumption rate. He made it clear, however, that if the state can’t or won’t get the job done, he will use his authority to establish a new

rate. “The EPA believes there are scientifically sound regional and local data in Washington that are sufficient for Ecology to move forward in choosing a protective and accurate fish consumption rate at this time,” McLerran wrote. Ecology director Bellon has said that we could have a more accurate fish consumption rate adopted by late 2014, and we intend to hold her to that. Oregon has increased its fish consumption rate to a more realistic 175 grams per day; we think Washington residents deserve at least that much protection. We’re spending too much money, time and effort to clean up and protect Puget Sound and other waters to let business and industry continue to pollute those same waters. Right now we are paying for our state’s low fish consumption rate with the cost of our health, and that’s not right. Developing a more accurate fish consumption rate isn’t about jobs versus the environment. It isn’t just an Indian issue. It’s a public health issue and needs to be treated that way. We can’t allow politics to trump common sense when it comes to protecting our own health and that of future generations.

Former MPD officer heads to arbitration over firing BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — Former Marysville Police Officer Derek Carlile was fired by the city of Marysville in May of this year, after his daughter died in March of last year from being shot by a handgun that he’d left unattended, but the Marysville Police Officers Association has filed a grievance on Carlile’s behalf and an arbitration hearing is tentatively set for this fall. According to city of Marysville Chief Administrative Officer Gloria Hirashima, the arbitration hearing looks likely to take place in October, although she can’t con-

firm an exact date yet, and the respective attorneys for the city and the Marysville Police Officers Association are still working out the details of who will serve as the outside arbitrator. “There’s not a lot to say about it at this point,” said Hirashima, who confirmed that the Marysville Police Officers Association filed its grievance on May 30, after the city announced Carlile’s firing on May 6. “We’re following the dispute process outlined by our labor contract, and we’ll abide by the ruling of the hearing officer who serves as our outside arbitrator.” Carlile was sworn into the Marysville Police Department on

Sept. 28, 2009, and placed on paid administrative leave shortly after the March 11, 2012, death of his 7-year-old daughter, who was shot the day before by her 3-year-old brother, when Carlile left his children unattended in the family van with his unsecured handgun. The Snohomish County Prosecutor’s Office charged Carlile with second-degree manslaughter on May 22, 2012, to which he pled not guilty at a June 5, 2012, arraignment in Snohomish Superior Court, but prosecutors declined to retry the case after it ended in a mistrial on Nov. 13, 2012, due to a deadlocked jury.

“We’re following the dispute process outlined by our labor contract, and we’ll abide by the ruling of the hearing officer who serves as our outside arbitrator.” Gloria Hirashima Marysville Chief Administrative Officer Department’s internal affairs investigation into the case began on Jan. 8 of this year, making sure to wait until after the Snohomish County Sheriff ’s Office had completed its own investigation, after which the city of Marysville announced Carlile’s firing. Carlile was fired for committing a negligent act, endangering himself or others, not promoting

a positive image as a police officer and conduct unbecoming a police officer. “It’s a very difficult position for a lot of people,” Hirashima said. “It’s a true tragedy all the way around. We’re just looking to try and make a decision here, but we’re very sympathetic to all the individuals involved, including Carlile and his family.”

Marysville’s Roth throws first pitch at Safeco BY LAUREN SALCEDO lsalcedo@arlingtontimes.com

SEATTLE — Almost 70 years after she played professional baseball, Marysville resident Dorothy Roth was once again a star on the diamond when she threw out the ceremonial first pitch of the July 24 Mariners’ game at Safeco Field. “It was like going to heaven,” she said. “Coming out of that dark tunnel, and then going on the field and seeing all those people, and the sunlight and the beauty of it all — it was unbelievable.” Roth, 86, played first base and left field as a member of the Parichy Bloomer Girls, a National Girls Baseball League team, when she was just 18 years old. “I played out of Forest Park, Ill. They had this beautiful stadium for men’s baseball, but then the war came out in 1945 and there were no men around anymore. So they started a girls’ team,” she said. “There were about six or seven teams in that location —

Wisconsin, Illinois and Indiana. We used to go play against the Rockford Peaches, the team that they made ‘A League of Their Own’ about.” Roth played baseball in high school, and during her senior year a scout came out to her school and offered her a spot on the team. “I was a senior and a scout came by and asked me if I wanted to play,” she said. “He offered me $29 a week, and I was trying to save money for college so I played a season.” Although she was a professional player, and eventually went to Cornell College in Mount Vernon, Iowa, and then the University of Illinois, she said she wasn’t always proud to be a baseball player. “When I was younger I was ashamed of it, actually,” she said. “I was 18 years old and girls didn’t play baseball back then. The only sport girls were playing was tennis. When I was playing baseball, I wouldn’t go by the tennis courts because I was ashamed to be in my uniform.” After graduating from college,

Roth got married, had children and moved to the West Coast. “It was quite an honor to walk on the field with my son and my daughter,” she said. “To have them here was so special. It was quite an honor.” The Mariners felt honored to have Roth visit and take the field. “We really enjoyed having Dorothy here, and she got a huge ovation when she was introduced,” said Mariners spokesperson Rebecca Hale. “Outfielder Dustin Ackley caught the ball and posed for a photo with her on the field right after the pitch. He also autographed the ball for her. The pitch, by the way, was right down the middle of the plate.” Roth said the memory is one that she isn’t likely to forget. “Everybody was so gracious and really made my day,” she said. “It was wonderful — everyone treated me like I was a queen. It was 70 years ago that I played baseball. I am amazed at what’s happened and how a little thing like that has grown into pitching for the Mariners.”

Mini Ultimate Sports Camp teaches fundamentals lsalcedo@arlingtontimes.com

Lily Siemer practices her throwing at the Mini Ultimate Sports Camp on July 24.

MARYSVILLE — A crowd of kids in orange shirts practiced baseball fundamentals at Allen Creek Elementary School on Wednesday, July 24, as part of the Marysville Parks and Recreation Department’s threeday Mini Ultimate Sports Camp. The camp is designed to help expose children to a variety of sports to see if they can find one that they enjoy most. Each day children are taught the basics of a different sport — soccer, baseball and basketball. “He’s getting to the age where he is inter-

ested in sports,” said Ramona Gilstrap, of her son Devon, 6. “The city is great, especially the mini camp, because it lets him try many different sports and that’s what drew us to this camp. It’s a great way to get him active and involved, and helps him socialize with other kids.” Marysville Parks and Recreation Athletic Director Dave Hall led the instruction himself, teaching basics such as base-running, fielding, throwing and ground balls. “Our Mini Ultimate Sports Camp is really popular because it gives kids the opportunity to try different sports and find which one fits the best,” he said.

Bethany Rohde, of Smokey Point, signed up her 6-year-old son Jack for the camp as a way for him to enjoy playing outside with other children. “It’s great. The coaches are very interactive and seem to be ‘kid people,’ and that’s important,” she said. “I just think it’s a great opportunity for fresh air and working on gross motor skills. We have a small yard so it’s nice to come here and be with other kids his age. and learn skills in a low-pressure environment.” For more information on Marysville summer sports offerings, visit http://marysvillewa.gov.

Marysville Legion blood drive exceeds donor goal

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — The members of the Puget Sound Blood Center’s “Bloodmobile” and American Legion Post 178 in Marysville exceeded their goal of 33 donors for their blood drive on Saturday, July 20, at the Post 178 Hall, which Legion members presented to visitors as a resource that’s available to the community as a whole. “The technical team on the bus was operating one person short, with three instead of the typical four

team members,” said Jennifer Smolen, second vice commander in charge of community relations for Post 178. “But between the Post, the Bloodmobile team, the Puget Sound Blood Center, and its donors from the general public and the 483rd Quartermaster Company Army Reserve unit, we reached 35 donors by the end of the day.” Among the Bloodmobile’s donors that day were retirees such as Shirley Warthen, Marysville Legion members including Michael Forrest,

and Army Reservists whose afternoon visitors began with Spc. Kevin Jones and Pfc. Adam Freed. Like Forrest, Jones was forced to wait a few years after his overseas mobilization before he was cleared to donate blood again. “I have the most immunized blood around,” Jones laughed. “Everyone knows the value of donating blood. Of course, the best part for us is, no more pushups for the rest of the day.” “It’s important to give blood to those in need,

whether they’re wounded in action or potentially your next-door neighbors,” Freed said. Smolen noted that she and Post 178 Cmdr. Jeremiah Fort were both sold on the merits of blood donations during their respective boot camps in the service, and while

she described this event as a relatively low-key affair, she hopes it will become the first in an annual series of blood drives at the Post 178 Hall. Moreover, she welcomed the opportunity to show off the recently remodeled Post Hall itself, especially to those who might be interested in utiliz-

ing it for their own events. The American Legion Post 178 Hall is located at 119 Cedar Ave. in Marysville. Those who are interested in renting the facility should call Sara LeSpade at 425-2686658. For more information, log onto http://americanlegion178wa.cfsites.org.

Groom retires from Tulalip Tribal Police BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

TULALIP — For two years after his ailing health forced him to retire from his full-time duties as the School Resource Officer for the Tulalip Tribal Police Department and the Marysville School District, Larry Groom was still able to put in part-time hours in his former position, but on Friday, July 26, he left the job for good due to his worsening condition. “The very next week after I’d retired, Jay asked me if I’d come back on a parttime basis,” Groom said of Jay Goss, who was the chief of the Tulalip Tribal Police Department at the time. “After the first month, I went from five to four days a week. A while after that, I was working three days a week,

then eventually two, and for the last several months, I’ve only been able to work two half-days each week. It’s just gotten harder and harder.” Groom was diagnosed three years ago with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, also known as “Lou Gehrig’s disease,” but he found the strength to keep going from his desire to continue his nearly 40-year career in law enforcement, as well as his love of the many children he’s befriended in his role. And for a while after his retirement, the deterioration of his health leveled off, but his latest six-month medical checkup confirmed that his illness had grown more severe recently. “When I was originally diagnosed, one lung was already gone and the other was only functioning at 36 percent,” Groom said. “I’ve

had aches and pains throughout, but I’ve lost even more of my remaining lung function lately. I have a machine at night that works like the reverse of a sleep apnea machine, to help pull the air out of my lungs so that they can open up and inhale more air. When I’m not on the job, I walk with a cane or a walker, or I get around on a scooter, which helps with my back and legs, since they’re getting weaker.” Still, Groom is able to look back fondly on a law enforcement career that’s included stints as the chief of police of two cities, as well as working with federal investigations, customs and the DEA. None of that, however, is what he’ll miss the most after he turns in his uniform and equipment. “What I’ll miss the most is

the kids,” said Groom, who’s mentored countless children over the decades, many of them now adults with children of their own. “The Tulalip Indian Reservation has become my home. They’ve accepted me very well, in spite of my being an ugly old white guy,” he laughed. Tulalip Tribal member Patrick Reeves was still a teenager when he first met Groom seven years ago. “He came up to me and asked me to join the Police Explorers, and we’ve kept in touch ever since,” said Reeves, who now has a daughter and works in maintenance for the Tulalip Tribes. “That academy was hard, but Larry kept me in. He was always there for me. If I was having hard
