ARLINGTON — The first day of school is enough to make any kid a bit nervous, even if she’s a veteran of first days of school like Kent Prairie Elementary fourth-grader Makenzie Leathers.

“I’m kinda scared,” Makenzie said, shrugging her shoulders.

“Isn’t the teacher your best friend’s mom, though?” asked Makenzie’s mom, Heidi Clark, whose son Joseph starts his junior year at Arlington High School this year.

As Makenzie bid farewell to her parents, Heidi Clark and Jason Leathers, on Sept. 7 for the first day of the 2011-12 school year in the Arlington School District, dad Jason laughed as he admitted to looking forward to more free time, while mom Heidi noted that her volunteer work at the school

will mean that she’ll still see her kids, and plenty of oth-ers, during the day.

“It’s always an exciting feeling,” Heidi said. “I look forward to them growing up into little people.”

Fellow Kent Prairie stu-dent Jessica Henry claimed not to be nervous at all as she started her first day of first grade.

“I’m excited to see my friends,” Jessica said, as mom Cathy and sister Brenna helped her get settled into her classroom. Brenna started fourth grade at Kent Prairie this year and is look-ing forward to reading and math.

“I’d glad to get back into a routine,” Cathy said, before laughing, “No more sum-mer.”

“It’s such a milestone,” said fellow Kent Prairie mom Dinnette Jeffrey, as she

ARLINGTON —The Sarvey Wildlife Care Center is hoping to bring its facilities into the 21st century, but it needs the community’s help to do it.

“Before 1994, we didn’t have any educational facilities,” said Tammie Rohr, administrative director for Sarvey. “Our educational animals were sharing space with our rehabilitation animals, which wasn’t ideal. Thanks to a donation from the Chris Smith fam-ily, which was matched by Microsoft, we were able to make our non-releas-able birds visible to the public.”

While this represented a step up for

Sarvey, they’ve struggled ever since with the fact that the educational facilities’ hallways and animal display enclosures are so small that they can only accommodate as many as 10 peo-ple at a time for viewings.

“The typical Washington weather has also taken its toll,” said Rohr, who explained that Sarvey has already secured wildlife trust fund dollars to start construction this past winter on an “educational meadow,” which will allow groups of 20 or more visitors at a time to check out the animals.

“The roofs of the new structures won’t be solid coverings, so plants will

unpacked daughter Lily’s backpack in the same first-grade classroom. “No more every-other-day stuff. This summer Lily learned to swim and ride her bike without training wheels, so she’s had a lot of firsts lately.”

At Pioneer Elementary, it was James Lyons’ second time giving away one of his kids to the kindergarten teacher, this time daughter Savannah.

“It’s different with a baby girl,” James said.

Ella Andreyanov just start-ed kindergarten at Pioneer, but she’s already growing up a bit too quickly for mom Zhanna’s comfort.

“She can’t wait until she’s big enough to ride the bus by herself,” Zhanna said. “Other kids cry on the first day, but she’s so independent. Her father and I realized a year ago that she’d be starting kin-dergarten this year. We were

shocked by how much the time is flying by.”

Pioneer Elementary Principal Karl Olson credited his school staff with spend-ing so much time on plan-ning and preparation that the morning went off like clock-work.

“This first week is when it all comes together,” Olson said. “We have a great team of teachers that’s able to work out the kinks in each year’s schedules, because they’ve done it for so many years.”

Although Olson empha-sized the importance of learning, he also spoke to this year’s crop of kindergarten parents to reassure them that their children’s well-being was paramount.

“We want to send these kids home smiling, so that they’ll want to come back the next day,” Olson said. “We want to put the parents’ minds at ease, so they’ll know this is a safe place and their kids will be happy here.”

be able to grow inside them with natural light,” Rohr said. “We also have a local Boy Scout who’s going to be help-ing build amphitheater seat-ing for an educational pavil-ion at that site.”

The four animal enclosures that have already been built cost approximately $8,000 each, and Rohr estimated that the total cost of the educational meadow would be about $118,000 simply to install all the structures, before any other educational materials are purchased.

“This is part of a multi-step plan,” Rohr said. “Our clinic for treating sick, injured and orphaned animals has also outlived its usefulness, but we need to empty out the current educational facilities before we can replace the clinic.”

To that end, Sarvey is inviting the community to attend a fundraiser for these

facilities at Craven Farms in Snohomish on Sept. 18 from 4-7 p.m. Tickets for this “Whiskey Barbecue” are only $50 each and are available by contacting Sarvey by phone at 360-435-4817 or via email at [email protected]. Included in the ticket price are hors d’oeuvres, two drink tickets and a barbecue dinner. Additional drink tickets will be available for purchase.

“Think what a difference you can make in our animals’ lives by helping to provide our resident animals with improved housing in a more natural setting,” Rohr said. “Not only will you be creating an environment our educa-tion animals can call ‘home,’ but you’ll be opening other enclosures within our facility to help rehabilitate releasable patients that come to Sarvey.”

Donations will also be accepted. For more informa-tion, visit Sarvey’s website at www.sarveywildlife.org or on Facebook, or email [email protected].

ARLINGTON — On a cloudy day in August a hand-ful of high school students were making Arlington his-tory — they were rehearsing a musical. This September “The Fantasticks” will be brought to life in the Linda M. Byrnes Performing Arts Center as the first entirely student directed and pro-duced main stage show ever attempted at the high school.

“The Fantasticks” will delight audiences with famil-iar songs and a familiar sub-ject, love. Follow the young hero and heroine, Matt and Luisa, as they fall madly in and out of love. This quintes-sential coming of age story combines enchanting music, witty dialogue and deeper questions about the nature of our relationships with one another; a combination that leaves us both charmed and thoughtful.

As the longest-running show in Broadway history, “The Fantasticks” is no small undertaking, but Arlington High School seniors Nathan Haskew and Nathan Braaten are more than ready to tackle the challenge. Both veterans of the AHS drama depart-ment stage, Haskew and Braaten share the responsi-bility for the success of the production and served as the director and musical director, respectively.

But these aren’t the only roles that are traditionally held by adults. Tasks such as costumer, prop coordina-tor and makeup artist are being undertaken by other regulars of the AHS stage. Seniors Lexi Lewis and Makayla Markenzinis, like Haskew and Braaten, will be getting senior culminating project credit for their par-ticipation in putting together these technical aspects of the show. To meet the require-ments of the senior project, students must participate in a new experience. Thus, these students are all taking on jobs in the theatre they’ve never tried before.

“Acting in a show is in some ways much easier than directing one,” said Haskew. “I’ve really gained an appre-ciation for how much work it takes backstage and behind the scenes, it looks easy, but it’s not.”

There is no denying that putting on a musical is hard work. But things get extra complicated when rehears-als, which began as soon as school ended for the year, have to be worked around family vacations, summer

camps, doctor appointments and the work schedules of the eight actors in this compara-tively small cast.

“It’s been a test of our improvisational skills as directors,” laughed Braaten. “Especially since this is an intimate show, without any fancy sets to hide behind. The focus is completely on our actors and its success depends on their abilities. But they have more than risen to the challenge. think our audi-ence is going to see not only the talent of this cast, but also their passion and drive.”

“This show is simply spe-cial,” said Miller. “It’s enter-taining, thought provok-ing, and a brilliant piece of American theatre, but there’s more to it than that. I’ve acted in six other shows here at AHS and I think “The Fantasticks” is going to be memorable because we are setting such an important precedent. Being trusted to do this ourselves is more than an incredible chance to learn, it’s preparing those of us who want to go into theatre seri-ously to pursue our dreams.”

It’s been a dream six years

in the making for AHS drama teacher Scott Moberly. “The ultimate success for any teacher is watching one’s stu-dents rise to the challenge of producing their own work and demonstrating that they are ready for independence. I’ve wanted to do student-run productions since I began teaching at AHS, and I feel this is the right time and the right group of kids to really show our community what they can do.”

The curtain goes up at 7:30 p.m. on Sept. 23 and 24 and Moberly is looking forward to being in the audience. “The support this communi-ty shows our drama students is phenomenal. I’m confident that they will come through again this year and help us celebrate just how fantastic our students really are by coming to see this musical.”

Tickets are $5 and all seats are first come, first served and there will be no advanced ticket sales.

Caroline Rensel gradu-ated from AHS last year and is a freshman at Whitman College.

4 The Arlington Times • The Marysville Globe September 14, 2011THE PUBLIC FORUM

All eyes of state government will be fixated on the

state’s economic and rev-enue forecast when it is released Thursday, Sept. 15. This forecast not only predicts the direction of Washington’s economy by using complicated formulas and indicators, but it also projects incoming revenue to the state based upon the economy and con-sumer spending. The state budget is built using those revenue projections.

When the Legislature adjourned in late May after a regular ses-sion and a special session that finally produced a $32.2 billion operating budget, it left only $723 million in reserves (money unspent in the state’s savings account). When the budget was being written, many of us said this measly 2 percent reserve would not be sufficient to buffer against further dips in the economy. Plus, it demonstrated the Legislature’s failure once again to control its overspending habits.

On June 16, just one day after Gov. Chris Gregoire signed the 2011-13 budget into law, the state revenue forecast was released. The result was a $560 million projected drop in reserves, leaving only $163 million in the state’s savings account for the next two years.

Here’s where some may argue the state doesn’t have enough revenue and should raise taxes to collect more money. As I’ve said before, the state doesn’t have a revenue problem. It has a spending problem. Even with the revenue decline, the state is still expected to collect $3.5 billion more in the next two years than in the pre-vious biennium. Unfortunately, rather than making reforms that would prioritize spending and set aside that additional money, the Legislature went about “business as usual,” appropriating this huge increase for spending in the 2011-13 budget. So again, overspend-ing trumped reforms, leaving a meager 0.5 percent in reserves.

Common sense says it’s unlikely such little savings would be enough to protect the state against another lower revenue fore-cast. So in August, Gregoire called on state agencies to submit contingency proposals by Sept. 22 for cuts of between 5 percent and 10 percent. If the Sept. 15 forecast is down as many expect, the governor has two choices: across-the-board cuts or calling the Legislature into a special session to create prescriptive reductions that would balance the state budget.

How the Legislature responds if it returns in special session will be very important. Here’s why. If lawmakers merely patch the hole and hope the economy will get better before the 2012 ses-sion in January, they will be fooling themselves and doing no one a favor. Under current conditions, state economist Arun Raha

Fixing state budget woes requires paradigm shift

The city budget planning process is well underway for the coming fiscal year,

as departments carefully review service levels and assess cost effi-ciencies for the City Council to consider in adoption of a 2012 bal-anced budget.

Thorough and systematic review of the budget by the Mayor, Chief Administrative Officer and depart-ment heads is an early step in a planning process to align priorities with community needs. Our scru-tiny of all expenses and financial oversight throughout the year are key to providing a base of knowl-edge for the annual budget process.

I encourage your involvement in this year’s budget process and welcome your meaningful input at public meetings in October and

November; citizen participation is essential to maintaining public transparency in this process.

Now that you have a better sense of what’s ahead in the coming few months, it’s a good time reflect back on how the city has fared since a year ago when we took decisive action to reform the way govern-ment in Marysville conducts the public’s financial business.

We prepared the 2011 budget with the priority of looking beyond 2011 and creating financial stabil-

ity for the long term by reducing expenditures, replenishing depleted reserves, paying off city debt more aggressively to ease our debt burden and boost our creditworthiness, and ensuring all funds are solvent and healthy. We applied the same approach that many struggling families and businesses are doing in their own homes and businesses today: be realistic about what we can afford, focus funding on our core priorities, and save for tomor-row’s needs.

Our nation and region have struggled under the financial pres-sures of an anemic economy, and fears of another recession linger. Marysville has fared better than many jurisdictions. That remains

You’ve read many opin-ion pieces from the cur-rent mayor since he was

appointed to office last year, so I welcome this opportunity from The Marysville Globe to discuss the issues.

My family and I love living in Marysville. Our city provides boun-tiful recreational opportunities, a wealth of shopping and entertain-ment choices, and other amenities typically found in a larger city.

As we enter the second decade of the 21st century, Marysville faces significant challenges. There are many opportunities for Marysville’s leadership to do better.

Working with local governments all over the world, including Iraq and Afghanistan, has taught me the vital importance of infrastructure.

Traffic must move freely. Access to major highways is crucial to economic development, the respon-siveness of emergency services and our overall quality of life.

Traffic in Marysville is severely impacted by growth, with wait times at train crossings already exceeding 20 minutes in some cases. With our city and our region expected to experience continued growth, this situation will only get worse as the amount of train traffic in Marysville increases.

Marysville’s traffic problems need more than study; they need action. Overpasses that don’t connect to I-5 won’t help most commuters. The big traffic project for this year, what one city spokesperson called “our big bang,” is a new overpass at 156th Street. We don’t know the final cost of the project. What we do know is that it provides an additional route into the Lakewood Triangle big-box retail center. It does not connect to I-5. That might be helpful for weekend shopping, but it does nothing for the daily commute, nor does it alleviate traf-fic problems for Marysville’s down-town merchants.

Railroad traffic is part of every-day life in Marysville. City lead-

Local Information You Want, When YOU Need It.doesn’t expect the economy

will get better anytime soon. So we would be back in the same rut in January, but like-ly deeper. The problem with patchwork is that it doesn’t address the root causes of our state’s budget crisis — namely overspending, con-sumer insecurity, and the lack of jobs in Washington.

The Legislature needs a significant paradigm shift in its thinking. Lawmakers can no longer afford to preserve non-essential wanted programs that are a drag on the budget at the expense of essential needs like education, public safety and protection of the state’s most vulnerable population. When the economy took a nose dive in 2008, employers had to change the way they do business to stay afloat, and families had to set spending priorities by funding only their “needs” and setting aside their “wants.” Unfortunately, state government has been reluctant to do the same. That must change.

The Legislature must also focus on the most effective way to stimulate revenues, improve the economy, and restore consumer confidence – and that is the creation of private-sector jobs.

I’ve written at length about our job-creation solu-tions, which you can view on our House Republican website at http://houserepub-licans.wa.gov/our-solutions/economy/. I also believe we must take a Hippocratic oath-like approach to our economy, which is “do no harm.” That means: extending the governor’s state agency moratorium on non-critical rulemaking, which is set to expire in December; avoid-ing tax increases which could send our state spiraling into a second recession; and reduc-ing costs to employers so they have the resources to create jobs.

However, the final and most important component must come from our business community. We need to hear from you. What can we do in the Legislature to make it

easier for you to create jobs? What do you think would be the most effective approach toward improving our state’s economy?

Our best solutions come not from within the marbled walls of the state Capitol building, but from those who live and work throughout Washington. If you own a business, sign payroll checks, or find yourself fighting an uphill battle against permit-ting and regulations, I want to hear your stories and your solutions. email me or send me a letter. You’ll find my contact information below.

ship recently relied on an expen-sive consulting firm to study train impacts from a proposed coal terminal north of Bellingham. We certainly didn’t need a consulting firm to tell us more train traffic will have severe negative impacts on local commutes. A more practi-cal approach is to adequately pre-pare by lobbying state and federal governments for funds to build overpasses that connect to I-5. Doing so is vital for free-flowing traffic, our quality of life, and the profitability of our businesses.

Global experience has also

taught me value of transparency in local government. While the city has heavily publicized some successes, other developments are slipped through with a minimum of public attention. Last April, the city passed a rule exempting big-box retailers from paying traffic impact fees. This give away was just what Wal-Mart needed to revive plans for a new super-store at 64th and SR-9. Most Marysville residents think this project is dead and will be surprised to learn con-struction of the new Wal-Mart will begin in the next few months.

Much of Marysville’s recent growth came through annexa-tion. I’ve spoken with people in

the annexed area who didn’t get a voice in the decision to become part of Marysville. In my view, citizens must be consulted before they are subjected to an expanded government. No vote was taken when a series of annexations were forced through in recent years. Those annexations deeply affected people’s lives and livelihood, including one farmer I met who told me his surface water manage-ment fees (what farmers call the “rain tax”) went from $122 a year prior to annexation to more than $1,800 a year after annexation. Nothing changed for this farmer except the tax increase — and it may be enough to force him out of

business. Forcing through annexa-tions without a vote is wrong and goes against my philosophy of government.

We must do better when it comes to fiscal responsibility and governmental transparency. For instance, Marysville purchased the old Coca-Cola bottling plant with nearly $3.8 million of city funds. Then the city commissioned a study and determined the property was not needed after all. Now the city has sold the main part of the property for $2.3 million — much less than the original purchase price.

Campaign seasons come and go, and politicians make prom-

ises during each election cycle. I would like to see Marysville move beyond easy rhetoric and the feel-good ribbon cuttings and award ceremonies that make for good photos but provide little in the way of true leadership. Doing better, making a real difference in our city’s quality of life, requires hard work. It’s work that is well worth the effort. Let’s work together to make Marysville an even better place to live.

true today because of the disciplined spending phi-losophy of “living within our means” that has served us well in 2011, and will carry us through 2012 and beyond.

The 2011 budget was not without some painful deci-sions and shared sacrifices, but it was decisive action that has kept the city on the right financial track — delaying or passing on bud-get problems only makes them worse. We faced a 2010 revenue shortfall that forced immediate budget cuts. City departments reduced operating expen-

ditures and we reduced the employee workforce by 10 percent from 2010 through layoffs and removal of vacant positions.

Among other steps, we began to replenish reserves as we plan for continued fiscal uncertainty in the overall economy. Reserves are on track to exceed our goal of 6.5 percent by the end of this year, with the objective to further increase those levels in the future to provide financial security and stability for the city. Re-establishment of adequate reserve levels, adequate funds for facil-ity maintenance, and re-establishment of a vehicle replacement fund will pro-

vide stability for continuing the provision of core ser-vices within the city.

Finally, as part of our budget reforms, we took a hard look at the inventory of city-owned properties to explore revenue-generating opportunities including pur-suing potential leases and selling off unused or no-longer-needed properties.

Two examples stand out: Cedarcrest Golf Course now has a successful res-taurant — Bleachers at Cedarcrest — that is now paying monthly rent to the city instead of the city being in the business itself.

Second, we aggressively sought a company to pur-chase the city-owned former

Coca Cola plant property after re-evaluating the need to immediately expand City Public Works yard facilities. Effective government entails monitoring current circum-stances and re-evaluating priorities based on those assessments. Instead of a Public Works facility reloca-tion and expansion, the city will welcome Parr Lumber Company into the com-munity. The sale recaptures the city’s purchase price for the building, reduces our overall debt, and leaves the city with adequate land to accomplish future long term needs. Parr Lumber is a Northwest family-owned company with a strong sense of community. The

jobs they will generate in the community and the tax revenues they will gener-ate through their retail and wholesale operations could not come at a better time.

Financial projections to date appear to support the budget reductions taken over the past year. Here in city government, we are liv-ing within our means. We focus on meeting the prior-ities of our citizens with the resources that we have.

While there have been some program cuts, our employees have shown a commitment to deliver-ing customer service and maximizing government resources. We anticipate the same cautious, conserva-

tive approach for the 2012 budget which will allow us to continue to provide core services at current resource levels.

Through our actions, I believe we will emerge from the current difficult times stronger and more financially secure. In the meantime, we will continue fighting crime, improving neighborhoods, growing our economy, planning for the future and sav-ing money; and we will continue reforming and streamlining the way we do business.

ARLINGTON — Open Door Theatre, a local 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, is staging a garage sale start-

ing at 9 a.m. on Saturday, Sept. 17, in the parking lot of Pioneer Elementary in Arlington, located at 8213

Eaglefield Dr., just west of Highway 9, at the entrance to the Gleneagle housing devel-opment.

The semi-annual hom-eowners association garage

sale at Gleneagle will be underway on that same day.

Open Door Theatre’s Board of Directors and friends are hosting the multi-family garage sale and

invite the surrounding com-munity to come and hunt for a wide selection of bar-gains. Hot dogs and drinks will also be sold. Proceeds from the garage sale will

be used to help cover the Theatre’s costs of bringing personal safety performanc-es to elementary schools throughout the Arlington, Lakewood, Marysville and other Snohomish County school districts this coming year.

ODT has not hosted a garage sale since the 1980s, when it was founded, but tough economic times have reduced the number and value of available grants from government and pri-vate foundations, along with individual donations. School and district budgets that have long supported the personal safety perfor-mances have also decreased along with the economy, but the ODT Board of Directors believes that supporting data indicates the need remains strong to teach important safety skills to children, so they’re rolling up their sleeves, creatively, to raise money for safety.

Open Door Theatre’s mis-sion is to free children from abuse and violence by teach-ing personal safety skills using live dramatic theatre. A team of professional actors interacts with students in grade levels between kinder-garten and fifth grade, as these children learn asser-tive skills that can be used in bullying situations on the playground or to keep themselves safe if confronted with someone who wants to touch them inappropriately. Teachers, counselors and principals are on hand dur-ing the lively, one-hour per-formances that are designed to be both empowering and age-appropriate.

On Sept. 17, the ODT Board, staff and cast mem-bers will be on hand to chat with customers hunting for garage sale bargains. Open Door Theatre welcomes the public to donate items for the sale as well. Donations can be dropped off the day of the sale as early as 7 a.m., while shoppers are welcome from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m. Please call 425-303-8783 by noon on Thursday, Sept. 15, if you have any questions or if you would like to donate items to be sold.

If you cannot attend the garage sale but want to sup-port Open Door Theatre, you may donate your time to support future fundrais-ing events or mail your tax-deductible donation to Open Door Theatre at 135 S. French Ave., Arlington, WA 98223. This financial sup-port will be used to fund this season’s performances.

Marysville’s Madelyn Teerlink shoveled weeds out of the grass at Jennings Park as part of last year’s National Day of Service and Remembrance.


MARYSVILLE — Last year, close to 250 volunteers spruced up Jennings Park as part of the National Day of Service and Remembrance.

This year’s Day of Service for Marysville will take place on Sept. 17 at the Doleshel Tree Farm Park, located at 9002 67th Ave. NE.

Christina Foley, media relations spe-cialist for the Marysville Stake of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day

Saints, explained that the church is sponsoring the project, which starts at 9 a.m. She asked that volunteers show up at 8:45 a.m. for sign-in registration and to pose for a group photo, and added that Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring plans to attend.

“The objective of the project is to clear the property of vegetation and trees to initiate a passive park and com-munity garden center,” Foley said. “It’s quite the big project and undertaking, but the end product will be so worth it.”

The day’s tasks are set to include the removal and replacement of the metal fence, preparation work and painting of the Doleshel barn, and cutting down trees that the city of Marysville will have marked ahead of time, while thin-ning out branches all around to create visibility from the street for the police.

“Branches and limbs will be sent through the chipper on site to create bark for the pathways,” Foley said. “An Eagle Scout project will also be taking place there, to remove and replace the deteriorating foot bridge.”

EDMONDS — Not many pro-grams can say that they’ve never lost.

Marysville Getchell’s girls soc-cer club could after opening its inaugural campaign with a 1-1 draw against Mountlake Terrace at Edmonds Stadium Sept. 6.

“We’re pretty excited about this team,” said Charger manager Wayne Nash. “We’re young and inexperienced, but you can see that they are all ready to go out there and compete.”

The Chargers did just that with a serendipitous opening to the match. In just the 12th minute, sophomore Kelsee Crenshaw out-paced the Hawks’ back line to a through ball that she put by the Terrace keeper from less than 10 yards out to become the first scorer in Chargers’ history.

“Kelsee is a very talented play-er,” said Nash. “We were just able to break through early in the game and get that lead.”

But an advantage in the score didn’t end up translating to one on the pitch, as the Chargers found themselves too comfortable with the lead.

“I think we let up after that

first goal,” said Nash. “The girls were pretty nervous going into the game and then all of the sudden, they said to themselves, ‘We got one.’ And then started to relax.’”

Terrace took advantage of a rest-ing Getchell attack, owning pos-session for the remainder of the first half, during which they got the equalizer in the 32nd minute on a strike from Erin Russell.

Although the second half didn’t see any scoring, that doesn’t mean there wasn’t a large num-ber of opportunities for both teams. Free kicks just outside the penalty area and breakaways were frequent but without con-sequence. For Getchell, that was mostly because of junior keeper Samantha Wallace.

“She pretty much kept us in the game,” said Nash about his goalie.

Wallace recorded 11 saves — four of the diving variety — and made sure her defenders were in the right areas.

Getchell played the second half with the same intensity of the first and was easily the winner in time of possession.

The match went to overtime with neither team scoring while both teams had a flurry of oppor-

tunities in the 10 extra minutes.With just one senior on the

roster, Nash said he was quite confident in his team’s future, and its effort against Mountlake

Terrace did nothing but support that feeling.

“(The Hawks) didn’t graduate anybody, so that’s a pretty sea-soned team that we just competed

with,” he said. “I was pleased with the way our forwards worked together tonight, playing off each other. That is a good sign for this year.”

ARLINGTON — Eagle volley-ball fans saw glimpses of what would make for an exciting season during Arlington’s season opener against Everett.

But there weren’t enough of those moments to overcome the Seagulls in a 3-2 (25-21, 16-25, 25-14, 18-25, 7-5) non-conference loss at home Sept. 8.

“I think it came down to not adjusting,” said Arlington coach Melissa Thompson. “They started tipping more (in game four) and we didn’t adjust to that.”

Everett won the final two games, taking advantage of a young Arlington team that was slow to implement a change in strategy. And just before game four, the Eagles looked unbeatable with a frontline that dominated the Seagulls’ defense en route to a 25-14 win and a 2-1 match lead.

“What you saw there was our hitters making the most out our

consistent passing all night,” Thompson said. “It all clicked there and that is a great example that we can look at this season and see what we’re capable of when our hitters transition early — that’s one of our goals this season.”

Leading all hitters was one of the two freshmen that started the match for the Eagles, Audrey Frolich. Arlington’s attack cen-tered around the freshman, who shined in the first game. Frolich’s three kills in four straight points sparked an Arlington comeback from an 18-13 defect. The Eagles didn’t take their first lead in the opening game until the score was 22-21, when Frolich closed out the game by serving four consecutive points — the final two came by way of the ace. She finished with a team-high 15 kills and three aces.

“For a freshman, Audrey’s very composed and confident — both of our freshmen starters are,” said Thompson. “And I think you have to give the entire team credit

for that because they have been extremely supportive in help-ing them get comfortable at this level.”

Arlington also started freshman Kate Anderson.

Megan Abdo finished with 38 assists and Lexi Sarver had eight kills and two aces.

Thompson said she saw a stand-out performance from libero Maya Manzano.

“She was like a rock back there for us,” Thompson said. “Her serve-receive is so impressive.”

Overall, Thompson said she was impressed by what she saw in her team.

“We stayed composed and con-sistent with our passing, which are two goals we have for this season, and that’s good for a young team that hadn’t played together on the same team before,” she said.

Junior hitter Loretta Forrest had a game high 17 kills.

Arlington plays at Cascade Sept. 22.

MARYSVILLE — The American Basketball Association announced that it has added a second team in the Pacific Northwest with the addition of the Washington Rampage in Snohomish

County.“It has taken us a while to

develop the Pacific Northwest,” stated Joe Newman, ABA CEO. “It is a pleasure to add our second team there to complement Don Sim’s great

Seattle Mountaineers team. Scheduling has been a diffi-culty; this will certainly help.”

The team will be owned by Kinshasa Martin, a ser-geant in the U.S. Army who also attends Everett Community College. He is pursuing a degree in Business Management and Marketing after completing a tour in Iraq.

“Having a team in the ABA has been a goal of mine,” added Martin. “I appreciate the opportunity and hope to make a great impact in the League and Snohomish County.”

The Washington Rampage is going to play their season in the city of Marysville.

The Washington Rampage would like to welcome aboard to the franchise new Head Coach, Chuck Fraine. Former player and multi sport athlete at Edmonds-

Woodway High School, Fraine is excited to lead the Rampage into their first sea-son. Coach Fraine played his collegiate basketball career under Jimmy Roffler at Lower Columbia College. He has traveled around the globe pursuing his basketball dreams, including a tenure in Australia.

The Washington Rampage inaugural basketball season is set to kick off Nov. 12, at 7 p.m., with a I-5 rivalry showdown against the Seattle Mountaineers.

For more informa-tion on dates, venue and times, please contact Kinshasa Martin at 206-766-0898, email [email protected] or go to their website www.WashingtonRampage.com.

EXPERT ADVICE

TAX SERVICES

1289C State Ave., Marysville, WA 98270

360-653-3591

Q: My 18 year old son is attending college this year and working part time to help pay for some of his expenses. Will my wife and I still be able to claim him as a dependent on our tax return this year since we are providing most of his support? This will be his first year filing a tax return.

A: If your son is not providing more than half of his own support and the other qualifications for dependency are met, then you will continue to claim him as a dependent as long as he is considered a full time student, until he reaches the age of 24. Your son may be filing a tax return to receive a refund, or perhaps to pay tax. Be sure that he does not claim his own dependency when filing his return. For more information on student dependents, or if you have additional questions, please call our office.

A: This all comes back to the question – what do you want to do? With a variety of activities, events and outings, there are many choices. One of the great things about meeting new Residents is the experiences, adventures and ideas they bring with them to Grandview Village! Monthly parties, lunch outings, educational seminars, shopping opportunities, church services, WII games, spa outings, yard sales, jewelry shows … the list goes on. That’s just September! Stop by and see what our active Elders are up to. We will warn you … they may ask you to join in the Bingo game. Give us a call!

Firewood, Fuel& Stoves

NOTICEWashington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (re- ceipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d bu ye r ’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quantity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood.When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the delivery vehicle.The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a cord by v isual iz ing a four-foot by eight-foot space filled with wood to a height of four feet . Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension.To make a f i r ewood complaint, call 360-902- 1857.
