MARYSVILLE – The first time Jessica Beckstrand saw her husband Mike cry was when they found out their 1 1/2-year-old daughter Layla had Stage 4 cancer and a 50-50 chance of survival. The second time she saw him in tears was a few weeks later when they saw a gofundme.com account set up by her sister had collected $6,000 from dozens of donors, many of them strangers, in just three days. “We just started bawling,” Jessica said. “I have no idea who half these people are.” She said she knew a lot of relatives out of state would want to help but not the amount of friends of friends of friends. “It’s overwhelming,” she said. “We expected it from family but not anyone else.” Jessica said the medical community has been brutally honest about the situation. “We still have to pay for everything no matter what

the outcome,” she said. Finding out Mike first noticed there was a problem when he was changing Layla’s diaper and noticed one side of her body was lower than the other. A doctor felt around and something was not right; the area was too big near her liver. A mass was found using an ultrasound, and she was rushed to the emergency room at Seattle Children’s Hospital. A tumor was found in her

She will have two half-hour treatments most of those days. She was set to finish her second round of treatments this week.

Layla suffered through itching and vomiting the first week. In-between treatments Jessica had a hard time getting Layla to take her medications, even when SEE LUV, PAGE 2

belly, and they were told Layla had Stage 4 neuroblastoma cancer in her adrenal glands. Because there are two such glands, the Beckstrands hope Layla can eventually have surgery removing one, and “the other one can make up for the loss,” Jessica said. To reach that point, little Layla has to go through five rounds of chemotherapy.

ARLINGTON — What became a worldwide community devoted to supplying people with prosthetic limbs started out as an Arlington dad’s nerdy hobby. Ivan Owen posted a video on YouTube about the giant puppet hand he’d created for a monster suit that was worn at science fiction and fantasy convention Norwescon in 2011. A carpenter in South Africa, who’d lost four fingers due to his

work, emailed Owen in December that year, to ask if he could make a replacement finger for him. “He just wanted a trigger finger to pull on his drill,” Owen said. Soon after “a coworker suggested 3-D printing, and I realized it was exactly the technology that I needed,” said Owen, who would become the co-creator of the world’s first 3-D printed prosthetic hand. “Rather than redesigning new hands as a child gets bigger, all you need to do is just scale up the same design.”

Owen later uploaded the prototype onto the internet through Thingiverse, allowing others to improve on the idea. This grew into the e-NABLE online community to provide downloadable plans for affordable 3-D printed mechanical prosthetics that many people can build their own. Owen estimated that his prototype cost the average person $150 in materials and 12 hours in labor to assemble, but with improvements the latest “Raptor Hand” runs around $35.

LUV FROM Page 1 she explained it would make her feel better. Her mom had to trick her to take the meds. “She hated feeling like a zombie,” her mom said. Jessica said at first Layla was tired and “needed to be cuddled all the time,” but a blood transfusion “brought our little girl back.” “She’s the best kid ever,” Jessica said. “She’s outgoing, she hasn’t lost that yet. She’s thoughtful and loves to share her toys. She lights up a room with her huge blue eyes.” Layla’s aunt, Jeanine Smith, who opened the gofundme account, says online that: “She sits so still when they have to clean her lines and check her temp. Her strength amazes me

every day. She is such a brave little girl.” The Beckstrands are not looking forward to Christmas this year. That’s the day Layla starts her third round of treatments, which Jessica has been told is the most scary for parents. Close to brother Layla adores her 4-yearold brother Owen, who also is having a hard time. He “felt neglected” when she started getting gifts after becoming sick. But it soon went much deeper than that. Owen is very protective of his little sister and is upset he can’t help her. “Why’s she so sick?” he would ask, Jessica said. “He thought the chemo was going to hurt her or kill her so he’s been asking a lot of questions about death and heaven.”

She gave an example of how close the two are. At Halloween, Layla was given a princess costume. “We call her princess all the time,” her mom said. But on Oct. 31, when they put the outfit on, Layla “flipped out.” She wanted to be “Hulk Smash,” like her brother, who was wearing a superhero costume. Owen came to the rescue, digging out an old Iron Man costume. She was as happy as could be. “He’s a rock,” Jessica said of Owen. Funding help At first, Mike wasn’t happy that Smith set up the gofundme account. “My husband and I don’t need other people’s money,” Jessica thought. They have health coverage as he works for the federal government in Seattle. However, after talking to a financial planner, they

found out they “have quite a bit to cover ourselves,” Jessica said. The biggest expense has been gas, driving to the hospital almost daily. The cost of food also is adding up. “Layla will not eat there,” her mom said, adding the hospital food is “gross.” Future out-of-pocket needs could include ambulance rides and hotel rooms. One concern the Beckstrands have is that if Layla comes down with a temperature she needs to get to a hospital with specific antibiotics within an hour or else she will be in a “bad place.” “That worries me the most,” her mom said, adding it can take hours to get to Children’s during rush hour. As a backup plan, they are trying to make sure those medicines will be avail-

able for her at Providence in Everett or Swedish in Edmonds. “We don’t want my sister and her family worrying about money when their attention should be on their kids,” Smith says. Jessica said some people already are saying that the Beckstrands are going to keep any extra money donated to the fund. She said that is not true, adding any not used will be donated to the Seattle Children’s cancer unit. “This is not for us, it’s for Layla,” Jessica said. “There are other kids who need help.” She added that they have already donated some money to a 3-month-old boy there who is in need. Sharing the story Jessica said she wants to share Layla’s story to help

others. “I want to raise awareness that childhood cancer comes on sudden, and it’s scary,” she said. She also is seeking volunteers to make Hickman Hiders for the hospital. She said they are not hard to make, and they are like a sports bra with a pocket worn by patients with ports. Layla likes one that looks like a Ninja dinosaur. Smith asks people to help her sister’s family any way they can. “They are so scared for their baby girl and scared for how this will affect her brother. Any amount that you can spare will help ease some of the stress. Please give what you can, even if it’s just prayers sent their way.” How to help Go to Facebook for items for sale or donate to gofundme.com, both at Lots of Luvs

Lakewood takes stock of its school improvement plans kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

LAKEWOOD — The principals of Lakewood’s elementary, middle and high schools touted the progress they’d made during presentations to the board Dec. 2, while also acknowledging the work that still lies ahead. Lakewood High School Principal Mike Curl summed up the four goals of improving students’ math scores on state and local assessments, improving the graduation rate, integrating Common Core more fully into the curriculum and boosting the numbers of students who pursue post-graduate education. In math, LHS has partnered its algebra and geometry teachers, placed a priority on promoting student engagement and questioning, and developed common sets of expectations for all ninth-graders, but is still working on how to implement testing for ninth- and 10th-graders. In graduation rates, the school has already seen students more motivated to perform, which Curl attributed to the advisory program and after-school tutoring. He expects the “College in the High School” program for free and reduced-price lunch students will likewise further that aim, as

should student-led conferences in the spring of 2017. “By reducing suspensions and doing what we can to keep kids in school, we make sure they stay caught up in their classes,” Curl said. “And the student success coordinator will help students who are struggling academically, since it’s often a symptom of other issues.” Curl noted that LHS had completed almost all of its Common Core objectives and is in the process of integrating the ideas outlined in Mike Schmoker’s “Focus” book about improving student learning. He likewise cited the number of ways in which LHS has promoted post-graduate options, including rescheduling its career and college fair during school hours, but lamented the dearth of colleges or other outside agencies willing to send representatives to visit students. Lakewood’s three grade schools have set goals of improving their reading and math scores by 5 percent, while Lakewood Middle School has set the additional goals of improving its students’ writing by 5 percent, as well as improving its level of student engagement. LMS Principal Bryan Toutant and Vice Principal Patti Buchanan added to the chorus of district educators talking about how they

perform much of their student interventions within the classrooms. For reading, LMS challenges students to gather information from multiple sources, demonstrate comprehension, and look for relevant selections of text and supporting evidence. For writing, the school has sought to build consistent standards of instruction that are used by all teachers, regardless of subject, and for math, LMS has integrated multistep problems into its other lessons. Student progress is measured through twice-a-year assessments. “We focus on what each grade needs,” said Buchanan, who conceded that, in the traditional middle school model, students and families might not have felt as welcome. To that end, LMS has sought more parental involvement, not only through surveys of parents, but also more frequent and personalized updates to parents. Cougar Creek Elementary Principal Todd Mathews agreed with Bill Landry, principal of English Crossing Elementary, that student learning targets need to be data-driven, based on assessments, while Mathews and Susan Cotton, principal of Lakewood Elementary, agreed that student

However, district superintendent Michael Mack reassured them that focusing on the fundamentals of reading and math is the way to ensure students succeed regardless of what tests they’re given. “They’re not taught to memorize facts, but to reflect on knowledge,” school board member Oscar Escalante said.

ing their own package theft. The woman initially denied involvement but when advised her crime was on video she admitted to taking the package. “It’s truly unfortunate but the Christmas season

brings about an increase in package thefts,” Marysville Cmdr. Robb Lamoureux said. “People definitely need to be wary of what valuables they are having delivered and left on their porch.”

Celebrate Christmas with us Dec. 5 As the temperatures dip, it’s once again time to revel in all the holiday wonder that Marysville has to offer. We’re so fortunate to live in a community that has a wealth of holiday activities, and that is filled with residents who give back, helping each other and looking out for friends and neighbors. Our Mar ysville Community Food Bank and Toy Store, along with its dedicated team of volunteers and those who donate food, gifts and money, has once again stepped up to make this a wonderful Christmas season for individuals and families in need. We’re so fortunate to have such a giving community in Marysville. The holidays are also a time to enjoy the company of friends and family, and create lasting memories for years to come. What better place to do that than our very own Merrysville for

the Holidays celebration at Comeford Park and Holiday Tour of Lights. At Merrysville for the Holidays, families will step into a winter wonderland of fun, food, music and a parade of Christmas lights. Enjoy family activities and holiday photo booths – or explore g i f t options at our holiday craft show – beginning at 5 p.m. Nehring It’s a great way to shop locally this Christmas season. Be sure to make your way to State Avenue at 6:30 to catch the Electric Lights Parade, featuring a festive array of vehicles, floats and walking groups decked out in glistening Christmas lights that will make their way from the Municipal Court to the center of all the

action in Comeford Park. Make sure to wave to Grand Marshal Becky Berg, our Marysville School District superintendent. After the parade, at about 7 p.m., you can officially welcome the start of the holiday season with the traditional lighting of the water tower, and listen to live music from Soulevard in the Rotary Pavilion. If you just can’t get enough holiday light displays, then don’t miss our annual Cedarcrest Golf Course Holiday Tour of Lights. Each year we add more lights to the tour – and it hasn’t gone unnoticed. In fact, this year, we’ve been recognized as the No. 2 best Christmas light display in the entire county. You’ll see the lights from on board one of three Rotary trains as you enjoy a 20-minute ride through rolling hills on the west side of the course and around the pond. You’ll pass through penguin vil-

lage, polar bear forest, Santa’s workshop and other displays. You might even catch a glimpse of Santa Claus or his elves along the way. Relax on the patio at the train depot and sip hot chocolate while roasting marshmallows for a complimentary s’more. Tours are available from 6 to 9 p.m. beginning Dec. 10, and are offered Friday through Sunday the two weeks leading up to Christmas. During Christmas week, tours run Monday through Wednesday, with the grand finale on Saturday, Dec. 26. Suggested donation is $5 per adult and $3 for youth, or $20 for the family. Whatever your holiday plans bring, may you all have a safe and peaceful Christmas and a Happy New Year.

When is eight not enough? When you are talking about grandchildren. From our combined five children, my wife and I have four granddaughters and four grandsons, ranging in age from two weeks to 17 years. Three of them are done having kids, but we’re still hoping Chris and Tad decide to be late-bloomers. Every birth is exciting, but

this latest one is extraordinary. Let’s just say n e w b or n Hunter is fast; he Powell could end up being a world-class sprinter. On Nov. 17, the day my oldest child Angie was born

way back in 1979, I received a call at about 7:05 a.m. I was getting ready for work when my son-in-law called and said to meet them at the hospital. My wife is a nurse, and my daughter’s mom lives in Coupeville, so I had the most flexible schedule to help at the Providence women’s center in Everett. I was to watch my granddaughter Izzy, who will be

3 soon, in the hospital while Stacey was giving birth to Hunter. Once her mom arrived I would go to work. So, I get to the hospital about 7:30 and asks where she is. They don’t know anything about her. They say I need to check the third or fourth floor. I find out she’s not there yet, which

BIRTH FROM Page 4 is strange because of the urgency of Danny’s voice earlier. Danny soon called and said her contractions were four minutes apart, and then suddenly two, so the hospital recommended calling an ambulance. So I waited for the ambulance to arrive. And waited. And waited. I thought ambulances were supposed to be fast. Danny called again. He was worried because the ambulance took so long to leave. So he checked. She was having the baby right there. In front of their

apartment in south Everett. EMTs had arrived and used a chair to take her down the two flights of stairs. Neighbors heard her screaming. Danny had dialed 9-1-1 and the dispatcher asked him what he had done to her. “She’s having a baby,” he answered. The ambulance then whisked her away. At the hospital, I went upstairs and waited. I finally saw three EMTs at the end of the hallway. I started to go into the room next to them and they said wait a minute, she had just arrived. They said my daughter and grandson were both doing well, and they asked me to call Danny to make sure he slowed down and drove safely to the hospital.

LETTERS POLICY

Apparently his motor was on overdrive. He arrived with Izzy a little bit later. Izzy of course didn’t want to stay with grandpa. She was worried about her mom after that traumatic morning. “Mommy hurt,” she told me. We played and had breakfast then went and saw Stacey and Hunter. All was well. I asked Stacey if it was worse having intense pain for a short while or gradual pain over many hours. She didn’t particular care for either. I need to keep Stacey away from any potential mates of our two sons or else eight may have to be enough. Steve Powell is the managing editor of The Marysville Globe-The Arlington Times.

Kids’ coding skills on display up of volunteers who apply, are trained and are committed to helping others. “They’re not quite experts because we just started early in the year, but they have a desire and confidence and like to help others write code,” White said. Second-grader Cecelia Emerson got a head start on her classmates writing code because her first two years of school she went to Lowell Elementary in Everett. She said she’s programmed her own Flappy Bird video game. “They think it’s a game, and they’re not doing anything,” White said, adding older kids can make games with characters from Angry Birds and Frozen. Classmate Mischa Moody said she also has some experience coding at schools in New York. She likes being able to partner with one of her best friends, Kennedy McDonald.

BY STEVE POWELL spowell@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE – Sometimes the best learning takes place when it doesn’t feel like learning. Grade school students in the Marysville School District are finding that out this year with the code.org curriculum. Students are learning the basics of computer programming, and it feels a lot like video games. Students will show off what they’ve learned to parents next week at Hour of Code events. The event will take place at 6 p.m. Tuesday at Allen Creek Elementary School. Teacher Kathy White plans to have 400 computers set up in the gym. Also, the 35 members of the school’s Jr. Geek Squad, made up of second- to fifth-graders, will wear their geek glasses and shirts and receive certificates. The squad is made

“We help each other,” Mischa said. White said with peer partnering students help each other if they don’t get it. “Their confidence takes off,” she said. “They can’t wait for code. It’s so much fun.” With code.org, it’s even fun if students make a mistake because it helps them figure out what they did wrong, guiding them to success. “Yea,” Cecelia said, gesturing with her hand after figuring out which code she had left out. “They learn problem solving and debugging if they make a mistake so they feel empowered,” White said. “It takes away the scariness of computer science for the kids.” Unlike MSD middle and high schoolers, the grade school students don’t have their own Chromebooks. Each school has four carts

Mischa Moody and Kennedy McDonald enjoy helping each other using code.org. with 34 Chromebooks each that are shared. “At least they get exposed to it,” White said. She said she teaches the students that computers can’t do anything with them. “Computers aren’t very smart are they?” she asked,

as they all answered no. Hour of Code events Marshall: Dec. 8, 6-7:30 p.m. Pinewood: Dec 8, 6-8 p.m. Allen Creek: Dec. 8, 6-7:30 p.m. and mornings

M’ville schools ask residents to respond to online survey on various issues

MARYSVILLE – Citizens for Marysville Schools is seeking survey respondents to help capture community priorities and gauge citizen perspectives on a variety of community issues.

Along with other community engagement efforts, the survey is intended to identify perspectives of the Marysville-Tulalip community and inform how the community as a whole can

improve and address deficiencies. “A great education system, growing economy, and safe community are interrelated. Success in one area supports the success of

another,” said Emily Wicks, Citizens for Marysville Schools co-chairwoman. “With this survey, we hope to identify where Marysville-Tulalip residents believe the community

has the most opportunity for growth, and where the community needs the most work.” Survey response are anonymous, and all Marysville and Tulalip residents can

participate. The survey can be accessed at www.surv e y m o n k e y. c o m / r / Citizens4MsvlSchools and closes at midnight Dec. 14.

‘It’s a Wonderful Life’ returns to Lakewood BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

LAKEWOOD — Last year’s first-time experiment has become this year’s winter tradition as the Lakewood High School Drama group will present “It’s a Wonderful Life” for the second season in a row. The cast of more than two dozen includes at least four actors who are younger than high school age, and is being assisted by six stage crew members, to produce 7 p.m. shows on the Fridays and Saturdays of Dec. 4-5 and 11-12. Many of the actors were part of last year’s production, so in addition to differentiating themselves from the famous silver-screen versions of their characters, they’re also conscious about how their

peers tackled those roles on the same stage. Seniors Nikki Heitz and Kara Blackwood play George Bailey’s two love interests, the flirty Violet and his eventual wife Mary, and both studied the work of their predecessors. Heitz admired the acting of the previous Violet, but wanted to make her “girlier” and rely more on “implied details” to carry the performance. Blackwood made her Mary more “happy-go-lucky” than the previous versions, even as she kept the core of the character as a woman “who’s dedicated to her husband and willing to do anything for him.” Fellow senior Keegan Boris, who plays George, is likewise guided by what he deemed “the timeless spirit” of Jimmy

Stewart’s performance. “I carry the same attitude, although there are moments where I’m more comedic than how he was in the movie, which was very serious,” Boris said. “For a good half of the play, I have to play him as extremely depressed, so that’s hard to maintain.” Senior Gavin Urquhart, who plays the villainous Mr. Potter, and junior Devin Smith, who plays kindly guardian angel Clarence, acknowledged that, as lean teenagers, they both differ greatly from the heavyset old men who originated their roles. “Rather than playing Mr. Potter as really old and cranky, I’ve made him younger and more oily and slick, but still a sinister manipulator,” Urquhart said. “He doesn’t

yell. He uses different techniques to get what he wants.” Smith similarly tried to play Clarence closer to the movie version at first, before adopting his own approach, but he retained what he sees as the angel’s more important trait. “The other characters are so serious that Clarence really stands out as the one light-

about friends and family and loved ones,” Boris said. “We had a great turnout the last time we did this, and I think it’ll be even better this time, because we’ve got an amazing cast.” Ticket prices are $6 with ASB, $8 for general audiences and $5 for seniors and children under 10.

Despite height, others look up to Eagle star BRANDON ADAM badam@arlingtontimes.com

ARLINGTON — Height is key in basketball, but Arlington senior Serafina Balderas is a glaring exception. Standing just 5-feet tall, the point guard scored 10 points in Arlington’s win over Meadowdale 65-25 Dec. 1, and then led the team with 12 points, defeating Monroe 65-56 Dec. 2. For that, she is the Marysville Globe-Arlington Times Athlete of the Week. Last season she averaged 8.5 points a game for a team that went to state. As a defensive standout her relentless style and quick hands lead her to loose balls and steals. “I think I’ve been more of a defensive player but that has also helped shaped me into the offensive player that I am now,” Balderas said. “Once I got steals, it helped me run down the court and get open looks.” What she lacks in height she makes up for with her speed, determination and her overall ball skills. She’s not afraid to take hits either,

Brandon Adam/Staff Photo

Arlington senior Serafina Balderas is the shortest player on her team, but is a huge contributor on offense and defense. as she leads the team in charges, Marsh said. “She’s just a warrior. She’s fearless,” coach Joe Marsh said. “She scares me sometimes when she’ll take a charge then she’ll pop up and everybody cheers. And

she’ll do it again.” Balderas knew early on that she would be height challenged. “When I started playing basketball, I knew I was going to have to have something that was different then

everyone else,” she said. “So I just worked on being the fastest kid through sprints and anything we did.” But being small also has its advantages, Balderas said. “Of course I’m lower to the ground,” she said. And

her aggressive defensive presence makes opposing players “scared to dribble the ball.” Now playing her final year for Arlington, she wants to do anything she can to help her team, with

the goal of taking them to state again. “I want to step up and be a big leader,” she said. “If my shots not on one night, then assists, defensive stops, and just doing anything I can to make our team the best.”

MARYSVILLE — The Marysville-Pilchuck girls basketball team returns a small but quick team, coach Julie Martin said. Rayshante Williams, a senior captain, suffered a season-ending torn achilles tendon on her first game last season, but she will play this year. Also stepping up for leadership is senior Amanda Kalab, also a senior captain who has “put in a lot of hard work and is a great leader for our team,” Martin said. Senior Skyleen Intatharath is a strong defensive player and has the ability to get to the basket as well, Martin said. Other contributors are sophomores Dominique Jenkins, who is quick with a nice shot, and Olivia Lee, an “all-around solid player” who has improved a lot offensively and has speed as well, Martin said.

BRIEFS Santa coming

ARLINGTON Community Health Center of Snohomish County is hosting An Evening with Santa Dec. 10 providing the community with pictures with Santa, arts and crafts and a gift for each child (while supplies last). The event is from 6-7:30 p.m. at CHC’s Arlington Clinic, located at 326 S. Stillaguamish Ave.

New brewery

ARLINGTON – Lanette Ziegler’s class at Haller Middle School created ornaments for the Christmas tree in the Capitol in Olympia. The Stillaguamish Tribe let the students use their salmon logo to make bent-

wood boxes as ornaments. Strips of brown paper were cut, and students brushed on streaks of thinned white paint to create the look of birch wood. The students used a template of the salmon logo and stippled red and black paint over the stencil. The final

Laurin Glen Blacken

step was to tie rafia on each ornament for hanging. Ziegler used the opportunity to teach her students about the importance of salmon to the tribe. They learned how the tribe works to educate the community about the importance of managing natural resources (fish, shellfish and wildlife) for generations to come.

July 14, 1953 — July 12, 2015

Laurin Glen Blacken of Hubbard, Oregon died July 12, 2015 from Multiple S y s t e m Atrophy, just two days short of his 62nd birthday. He was born July 14, 1953 in Arlington to Alene and Ray Blacken.

He worked as an electronics engineer for many years at Motorola, Tektronix, E Machines, Planer Systems and he co-owned Novation. In 1972 he married Vicki Venables, his high school sweetheart and they lived in Mesa, AZ and then in Wilsonville, before moving to Hubbard in 1989. They had two children, Lars and Kylie. Laurin

was a longtime fan of the Trailblazers, S e a t t l e Mariners and UW Husky teams. He e n j o y e d spending time with his family, being a grandpa, woodworking, hiking, camping, fly fishing and bike riding. He was very musical and played the trombone, harmonica and guitar. He was preceded in death by his mom, Alene and sister, Karen.

Homeless people in Arlington and Marysville were thankful around Thanksgiving that their cities opened their cold-weather shelters. In Arlington, although the Immaculate Conception Catholic Church and Arlington United Church are again serving as the primary sites for the shelter, AUC Pastor Deena Jones explained that she’s “bumped up” the temperature requirement. The cold-weather shelter in Arlington will open from 8 p.m. to 7 a.m. when forecasts call for temperatures to 32 degrees or below, for three or more hours. Although attendance numbers have been small — between one to five — Jones expects to see more families with children coming in this year, because of the opening of the Arlington Community Resource Center. “They’re serving so many families, especially women with children who are homeless, that it will no doubt

Help is also needed to man the site overnight from 7-11 p.m., 11 p.m. to 3 a.m., and 3-7 a.m. “Our volunteers come back over and over,” Wlaslak said, adding more volunteers would be a welcome addition. She also said donations of blankets, gloves, hats and socks would be appreciated. Wlazlak said the shelter is set up with 20 beds, but has housed up to 25. “We never turn anyone away, but they might have to sleep on a couch,” she said. Groups such as the Soroptimists, Salvation Army and churches help with donations of food and other supplies. The Soroptimists last week gave donations of paper products, breakfast supplies and detergent, member Renae James said. To get word out about the shelter being open, Wlazlak posts it on Facebook and puts a green sign in the church window. Community Transit drivers also notify riders and organizations that serve meals to homeless also are notified.

However, as the program enters its seventh year, it has committed locations for only four nights a week, with Immaculate Conception covering Sundays and Mondays, and Arlington United covering Fridays and Saturdays. Jones explained that other churches still supply volunteers and goods, but have had to drop out of hosting the shelter due to remodeling and concerns about overlaps with their daycare programs. In Marysville, the shelter opened up at Damascus Road Church on State Avenue. Up to a dozen people stayed overnight as temperatures dipped below 32 degrees from Nov. 21-30. Another half-dozen came for dinner. Shelters director Zoe Wlazlak whenever the shelter is open for more than a few nights in a row it taxes their 60 volunteers, so more are needed. “We’re stretched thin when we run multiple days in a row,” she said. Help is needed to prepare food and drop it off, or come to the church and cook and serve it from 7-9:30 p.m.

encourage them to come into the shelter,” Jones said. Last year saw the shelter open for a full week in November, which was already more than the two or three nights it usually averaged that month in previous years. “The time commitment this requires from the churches and the volunteers is the hardest,” Jones said. “It doesn’t take a lot in finances, but we do have needs. “Still, this is such a generous community that I almost hesitate to say what those needs are,” she added. “The last time we put out a call for blankets, we were buried in them.” When shelter volunteers request items such as gloves and socks, they send any excess to the Helping Hands thrift store for the needy. “Of course, we can always use more folks to staff the shelters, to cook supper and breakfast, and to do laundry and wash the bedding,” Jones said, noting that the Arlington shelter also runs in four-hour shifts. “We’re just trying to keep people from freezing to death.”

School honors Tulalip Day spowell@marysvilleglobe.com

TULALIP – The first thing we do when we get up is give thanks, and the last thing we do at night is give thanks. That was just one of many Thanksgiving themes speakers mentioned as Quil Ceda Elementary School students gave thanks to their community Nov. 25 with Tulalip Day. Cultural director Chelsea Craig said the assembly was student led as the young drummers and singers selected the songs and dances that come from various families. “The school is a melting

pot, but when we’re here we are all one,” she said. A number of people spoke at the event, and their messages were perfect for Thanksgiving. •Being high-class has nothing to do with wealth, but the way you treat other people. •Tell people they matter and make them feel good about themselves. •Be thankful for young people who will step up and lead their families and tribe. •Give lots of hugs to your grandma and grandpa, mom and dad, aunts and uncles, everyone this Thanksgiving. •Even if they are far away we still love and think of

each other even when we’re not together. In that same theme, tribal Chairman Mel Sheldon said, “Tell your best friend you love them, and even if they’re not your best friend.” Craig said the singers and drummers are as young as kindergarten and as old as fifth grade. “The leaders just naturally happen,” she said. She’s also excited that non-indian students are building drums at home with their families. “They bring their drums in their backpacks to school,” she said. Craig said she was glad to see so many families there. It hasn’t always been that way.

Quil Ceda Elementary youth led the drumming for Tulalip Day. “We’re trying to make sure the community feels welcome here,” she said. Craig explained to the hundreds in attendance that many elders and adults in the community didn’t get

to celebrate their Native American culture the way students now can at Quil Ceda. “We were not allowed to be indian,” Craig said. First-year Principal Cory

Taylor said he enjoyed the assembly. “We have a unique opportunity here that the students get to celebrate their culture,” he said. “It’s a rich heritage.”

Lorri Schubert, left, stands among the sleeping suites at her pet daycare and boarding facility. At right, employee Kathy Eaton tends to some dogs as they play outside.

She goes from pampering Mariners’ pets to yours spowell@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE – Lorri Schubert knows how to pamper pets. She used to own a pet business in Brier where she catered to the animals of the rich and famous in Bellevue, Redmond and Issaquah, including those belonging to Seattle Mariners baseball legends Ken Griffey Jr. and Jay Buhner. “Their dog is part of their image, and they pay big money,” she said.

“Their dog is part of their image, and they pay big money.” Lorri Schubert said of rich clients, She became so popular she was asked to partner with a big operation that settled in Lakewood. She was there for 25 years, but decided it got too big, so she sold it, and started anew Nov. 10 at Pampered

Pets Resort in North Marysville. “It was way less hands on, and I got bored,” Schubert said. “I want to get back to that small feel, more personable.” The new project consists of boarding and daycare. She wants to add grooming “down the road”, but said city laws made it too expensive to add sewer and water to start. Schubert said she knew when she was 16 she wanted to make a living with dogs. She trained

her own dog, then took it to a class and became friends with the trainer. When there was an opening she got the job and has worked her way up from there. Schubert also competes at a high level of competition around the country with her two border collies. For years she has taught border collies to work on farms and ranches in Snohomish County. She also runs a huge sheep dog trial competition in Arlington that brings in 400 spectators a year. She

still raises sheep in the Lakewood area that are used for training dogs and also for meat. Schubert, who lives in the house in front of the resort, said it’s open every day of the year. Pets are pampered all day inside a heated and air conditioned building. Cost is $25 per dog, just $5 more if they stay overnight in one of the eight sleeping suites. “It’s free roaming,” Schubert said. “They get to play all day long.”

Man who shot M’ville police gets 71 years in prison THE HERALD

EVERETT — The man who shot up police stations in Granite Falls and Lake Stevens before shooting at Marysville police a year ago was sentenced Nov. 24 to 71 years in prison. Hans Hansen, 44, of Lake Stevens hit Sgt. James Maples in the leg during the attack. His attorney argued that Hansen was a desperate man Oct. 15, 2014, suffering from severe

“(Hansen) targeted, terrorized and traumatized not only police ... but the communities as well. ”

His life was crumbling around him, Scott said. But Hansen’s troubles don’t excuse his actions, Judge Ellen Fair said. Judge Ellen Fair Plenty of people suffer from mental health issues and addiction, depression. He wanted police to and there is help available. Hansen kill him. Public defender Jon Scott chose not to seek help, the judge said his client wasn’t trying to kill police. He faced financial ruin said. “On that night (Hansen) tarand a significant health condition. geted, terrorized and traumatized

not only police officers... but the communities as well,” Fair said. His actions went beyond trying to force police to end his life, the judge said. He put countless people in danger, and it’s lucky no one died, she added. A Snohomish County jury this month convicted Hansen of multiple counts of first-degree assault and drive-by shooting. Jurors couldn’t reach a decision

on attempted first-degree murder when he shot at Maples and Marysville officer James Tolbert. Hansen fired an AK-47 at least 33 times at Tolbert and officer Bronwyn Kieland. He holds no hatred toward Hansen, Maples wrote in a letter to the judge. He does believe that the defendant must live with the choices he made, as Maples lives with the physical pain of being shot.

Marysville after Grinches trying to steal Christmas Marysville Police Chief Rick Smith, Explaining FBI’s new way of reporting crimes Lights has focused on reducing crime in the north end, while Southern Comfort has reduced crime in the Comeford Park area. Police are also working with big box stores to reduce crime there.

Smith did say the department is having to change the way it reports crime because of new FBI procedures. For years the major crime is what has been reported, such as a burglary. Now elements of crimes also will

be reported. Now, if more crimes are committed, they will be counted individually. Such as, instead of just being counted as a burglary, if there was forced entry, the crime of vandalism would be reported, too. “That’s just going to increase crime stats and confuse the community,” Smith said.

this year Assaults are down 421365; commercial burglaries are down 381-276; residential burglaries are down 299-224; vandalism is down 209-196; robberies are up 23-19; theft is down 1,182 to 1,137; vehicle theft is down 269-212; and vehicle prowls are down 251-169. Overall,

crime is down 2,734 to 2,377. Some of the stats are even more impressive looking back to 2013 when vehicle prowls were 317, a drop of 47 percent; burglaries were at 407, a drop of 32 percent; and assaults were 449, a drop of 19 percent.

MARYSVILLE – Any thief thinking of being a Grinch that stole Christmas presents in Marysville better think again. Police are adding patrols in popular shopping areas to reduce vehicle prowls and shoplifting. That type of focus on different crimes in different areas of town has led to a huge drop in crime statistics for the year. Police Chief Rick Smith said Dec. 1 that the department each month looks at where various types of crimes are clustered, then readjusts its force to crack down on criminals in those areas. Arresting those culprits has led to a drop in those types of crimes being recommitted. For example, one vandal who was arrested may be responsible for 35 or more cases. “These are neighborhood livability issues,” Smith said. “We’ve arrested some prolific thieves and burglars and gotten them off the streets.” By looking at crime statistics, police can identify areas hit hard by drugs, burglary, theft and so on. The NITE team and other officers on overtime work the area. Not only do they make arrests, but police presence also deters crimes. The Regional Property Crime Unit also is out in force, actually getting stolen property back for victims. Operation Northern

“That’s just going to increase crime stats and confuse the community. ”

MARYSVILLE — With a son in the Navy and a daughter in the Coast Guard, Marysville’s Katherine and David Girard have grown accustomed to holidays without their kids. This Thanksgiving proved different, though, when their son, Spencer, became one of only 72 sailors and Marines stationed at Norfolk, Va., to be reunited with their families. Spencer’s parents were flown to Norfolk from Marysville, and his sister, Kamille, who lives in Virginia Beach and serves as a petty officer on board the U.S. Coast Guard cutter Beluga, joined them. “With my family being on the West Coast, I wouldn’t normally have the opportunity to see them for Thanksgiving,” said Spencer, a Navy seaman who graduated from Marysville-Pilchuck High School in 2011. “Especially my parents, who I haven’t seen in a very long time.” Katherine knew her son had put his name in for the “Happy ThanksGathering,” but urged him not to get his hopes up. “The way they did it was just … oh my goodness,” said Katherine, who hadn’t seen Spencer in a year and a half, and Kamille in two years. “I didn’t know Norfolk was the world’s largest naval station, but you see when you get there. They spent a huge amount of money to treat everyone to a great Thanksgiving.” The two-day event included not only a fullcourse dinner with all the fixings on Thanksgiving, but also tours of Navy ships, a turkey day football watch party, and a private concert by the band Train. “They performed in the Macy’s Day Parade the very next day, but they took the time to play for us, which was very cool,” said Katherine, who added that she and Spencer enjoyed meeting other service members and their families at their dinner table, including folks from Montana and Hawaii. Katherine appreciated the gift cards and boxes of goodies that every family and service member received, which included

gingerbread house kits for younger children and Ziploc containers for leftovers. “We even got to contribute to a cookbook that was issued to everyone, with recipes from each of us,” Katherine said. “From my husband’s mom, we submitted a recipe for turkey dressing, plus a chocolate poundcake recipe from his grandmother. It was a short but proud time, and we never would have been able to do anything like this without their help.”

Downtown Arlington business group sets direction

NOMINATIONS sought for…

ARLINGTON — The Downtown Arlington Business Association’s new board got some new directions Dec. 2, as one of its most active members was honored for her work. DABA voted unanimously to approve its slate of nominees, which included not only returning president Mike Britt, vice president Jeff Phebus and secretary Dana Fowler, but also Christy Brubaker as incoming treasurer, and board members Bill Dettrich and Rich Senff. Taira Knee resigned from the board in October, and Britt had praised her work

Top nominees will be honored at an event in Spring 2016 and featured in the April edition of The Herald Business Journal.

They’re emerging leaders of Snohomish County, the people in business and industry who shape the county for the better today and into the future. The Herald Business Journal, Economic Alliance Snohomish County and Leadership Snohomish County are seeking to honor the next generation of leadership in our community. The Emerging Leaders Award was created to annually recognize an emerging individual whose leadership has made a positive impact on

on the Viking Fest during DABA’s November meeting. Britt likewise lauded outgoing member Zeph Regland and treasurer Brittany Kleinman for their contributions. Britt pledged that DABA’s new board would be especially responsive to the community’s needs, by each focusing on their own area of downtown. “Bill, you’ll probably be handling West Avenue, from NAPA to the pharmacy,” Britt said. “We’ll nail down exactly what all of our areas will be, and each one of us will constantly check what’s going on there, get-

ting to know the landlords and relaying important information. It’s so much easier when we can just go to our sectors. Hopefully, it’ll mean that vacant storefronts won’t stay empty for so long.” Britt recognized a nonboard member whom he credited with many of DABA’s successes over the past year, presenting the president’s award to Kathleen Shalan of the Country Rose on Olympic Avenue. “Whatever she was doing, Kathleen just blew it out of the water, and I never had to ask for her help. She always just did it.”

Snohomish County. It pays tribute to an individual who exemplifies outstanding professional values: demonstrates the ability to go above and beyond the expectations of a leader; and serves as an inspiration to the community.

Black Friday still has fans BY STEVE POWELL spowell@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The reports of Black Fridayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s death have been greatly exaggerated - at least in Marysville. Nationwide, jokes about Black Friday are circulating, calling it Gray Friday because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no longer the huge event it used to be. Retailers are now advertising bargains weeks before Thanksgiving to get people to shop earlier. And a large segment of society is turning to online shopping for almost everything. But there are still plenty of people in north Snohomish County who enjoy the tradition of getting up early, sometimes even in their pajamas, to go shopping for bargains. Few retailers still advertise true Doorbusters that are really great deals on bigticket items. But Fred Meyer did. And while there werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t people camping out overnight for days at the one in Marysville, there were hundreds of shoppers already there braving 20-degree temperatures when the

doors opened at 5 a.m. The big draw was a 40-inch HDTV for only $150. Cathy Haverman and her daughter Staci and grandaughter Brooklynn quickly got in and out with their prize deal. It was the only thing in their cart. They said they like to go shopping on Black Friday every year; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a tradition. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For me I like the excitement,â&#x20AC;? Staci said. Cathy said online shopping is not for her. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I hate online. I like to touch it,â&#x20AC;? she said of things she buys. They said they thought they might not get a TV because there were only supposed to be 15 at each store, and there were plenty

of people getting in before them. But they went straight to electronics, and there were still a half-a-dozen left. The parking lot was filled with hundreds of cars as they left, as even more people arrived after the opening. The Big 5 across the street got a rush right at its 5 a.m. opening, but in contrast to Fred Meyer soon cooled off. Down the street at Marysville mall the Pennyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and Big Lots had a packed parking lot and steady stream of customers. Other areas expected to be packed Black Friday were the Tulalip mall and all of the stores in the Smokey Point area. Reach
