MARYSVILLE — “Merrysville for the Holidays” put in its 24th annual appear-ance at Comeford Park on Saturday, Dec. 1, and in spite of what Electric Lights Parade announcer and city of Marysville Parks and Recreation Director Jim Ballew deemed “not rain, but tears of joy” that fell from the sky intermittently throughout the afternoon and evening, the event was drawing crowds well into the night.
Bob Petersen tended the bonfire this year for the Marysville Lions Club, which experienced the slight problem of the weather being almost too good for the occasion.
“Previous years have been a little colder, so we’ve had more people crowded around, but it’s been harder for them to find places at the fire,”
Petersen said as he placed more wood on the flames. “This year, though, we’ve had a steady stream of folks come by who have still been quietly appreciative of the warmth.”
The Marysville Kiwanis Club joined Ivar’s and Vinaccio’s among the food vendors by selling hot dogs and hot cocoa to help raise funds for their programs throughout the year, while groups ranging from the United Way of Snohomish County to the Marysville Dog Owners Group set up spe-cial holiday backgrounds for “Merrysville for the Holidays” attendees to take photos of their families with their own cameras.
City of Marysville Recreation Coordinator Maryke Burgess noted that the Ken Baxter Community Center’s holiday bazaar recruited 24 vendors,

TULALIP — Need in the community during the holi-day season and beyond was the topic of the Nov. 30 Greater Marysville Tulalip Chamber of Commerce Business Before Hours, as representatives of the Marysville Community Food Bank, Goodwill and Salvation Army each cited the works they’ve done on behalf of the less fortunate, and asked the surrounding community for its
support.Marysville Community Food
Bank Director Dell Deierling recalled that the Food Bank began as a temporary measure in 1974, before eventually receiving its 501(c)(3) status in 1987.
“Now we have a Board of Directors with a 10-year plan and a 5,300-square-foot facil-ity,” Deierling said. “The prob-lem has not gone away, but the good news is that we now have an infrastructure to address that need.”
Deierling estimated that 190 individuals invest 2,000 hours a month to keep the Food Bank running for the roughly 275 families in need who stop by three times a week to collect ingredients for their meals.
“That’s 6,100 individuals with-in the past year, or 10 percent of the population of Marysville,” Deierling said. “About 40 per-cent of them are children, and 10 percent are seniors. They come from all walks of life and

15 for the inside and nine for the outside, which she described as par for the course.
“We always attract about the same size crowd of qual-ity handmade crafters,” Burgess said. “We get people from the community who attend this event faithfully every year.”
Burgess acknowledged
that the day’s dark skies and occasional drizzle depressed its turnout to an estimat-ed 2,500 attendees, down from its usual 3,000, but she touted the nearly two dozen Electric Lights Parade entrants who still showed up and proceeded south on State Avenue from the Marysville Municipal Court to just south of Comeford Park.
“We’re pleased by the number of people who came out even with the weather
reports, especially since it held off on pouring down for the most part,” Burgess said. “And, of course, we’re already looking forward to our 25th year next year, which is going to be even more amazing.”
Crafters such as Suzi Parks of Marysville and Angie Whitney of Seattle were effusive in their praise of Burgess’ coordination of the holiday bazaar, as Parks hawked her uniquely unfold-ing scrapbooks and Whitney
showed off her silk art and hand-painted phone covers.
“This is the best-organized show around,” said Whitney, a lifelong painter who took up painting silk scarves just a couple of years ago because “I like seeing my art in peo-ple’s hands.”
Jack Lybyer, the Electric Lights Parade’s grand mar-shall for this year, was also given the honor of lighting the Marysville water tower after the parade. Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring cred-ited Lybyer with helping to kick off “Merrysville for the Holidays” nearly a quarter
of a century ago, and Lybyer himself recalled how what was once the Operation Marysville Community Christmas campaign has evolved since its humble beginnings.
“We started with four big brown barrels,” Lybyer said. “Now they’re red and they’re everywhere across town. I never could have imagined that what we helped start would turn into all of this. Christmas is really for kids. If we’re able to help kids have happier Christmases while they’re growing up, they might grow up into better
adults.”Outdoors, Arlington’s
Annette Miner supervised son Austin and daughter Alexis as they assembled their own handmade crafts at a Girl Scouts of America booth.
“We just moved to town, so this is our first time at this event,” Annette Miner said. “We didn’t have anything like this back in Shoreline. It’s wonderful for the kids.”
“We’ll be coming here every year from now on,” agreed fellow first-time attendee mom Anya Gardulski.

MARYSVILLE — As of Dec. 6, the possession and use of one ounce or less of marijuana becomes legal in the state of Washington, but how this will be enforced and prosecuted depends upon whom you ask, and in what part of the state.
Prosecutors for King, Pierce and Clark counties have all stated their intentions to drop their existing mis-demeanor marijuana possession cases, but as of Nov. 30, prosecutors for Snohomish County were still explor-ing what the disposition might be on their own existing marijuana cases.
“[Snohomish County Prosecutor] Mark Roe and our other attorneys have been talking to law enforcement and each other,” said Hal Hupp, deputy prosecuting attorney for Snohomish County, who didn’t expect the matter to be resolved by Dec. 6. “Part of the problem is that the legal definition of marijuana up to Dec. 6, 2012, is differ-ent from the legal definition of mari-juana from Dec. 6, 2012, forward.”
One luxury for the Snohomish County Prosecutor’s Office with these cases is that, as Hupp said, “Dec. 6 is the start date for the new marijuana laws, but it’s not the deadline for deci-sions on the old laws.”
Both Hupp and Shari Ireton, director of communications for the Snohomish County Sheriff ’s Office, acknowledged the complexities of the law in the wake of Washington state
voters passing Initiative 502, although she cited the new laws themselves as establishing at least a few certainties.
“If the law says that possession of an ounce or less is legal, we’re not going to arrest you for it,” Ireton said. “If you’re in possession of more than that amount, or you’re under 21 years of age, or you’re distributing it, we will. If we get a call about 30-year-olds smoking up in the park, we’ll respond, because displaying or consuming marijuana in public is still illegal.”
Although the possession, use and sale of marijuana-related drug para-phernalia will no longer be a crime or civil infraction, Ireton acknowledged that until the state comes up with licensing guidelines there is no legal way for people to obtain marijuana itself in Washington, unless they’re medical marijuana recipients.
At the same time, Ireton and Hupp both noted that drivers’ THC levels from marijuana will continue to be grounds for DUI arrests.
Ireton conceded that “these are very confusing laws,” especially given the differing ways in which each county is choosing to respond to them, while Hupp pointed out that the Snohomish County Prosecutor’s Office is respond-ing “as quickly as it can,” given that “this is a small part of what we do, which tends to focus more on violent and sexual assaults and murder. The costs involved in these changes are already significant.”
“And no, members of the
Snohomish County Sheriff ’s Office can’t start smoking marijuana, because we’re still bound by fed-eral laws,” Ireton said, in an attempt to clear up one misconception she’s already encountered.
Marysville City Attorney Grant Weed explained that Marysville, like many cities in Washington, had not yet “sorted out all of the issues the 60-plus page I-502 presents,” but assured citizens that the city of Marysville intends to enforce the new law as written, including the DUI aspects of the new law.
“The city will also be monitoring the many state regulations that will be adopted by the Liquor Control Board over the next year, and taking appropriate steps to seek compliance,” Weed said. “We will also be watching to see what the U.S. Attorney’s Office may do at the federal level.”
Arlington City Attorney Steve Peiffle likewise described his own staff as “still looking at this issue,” albeit at a staff level rather than an attorney one at this point.
“Not unlike the pattern of the past few years, we’re waiting for the fed-eral response,” Peiffle said. “We know that the possession of certain quanti-ties above the age of 21 will no longer be prosecuted and the sale of it is still illegal, but to a large extent, we have no real clue beyond that. We’re operating without guidance and hop-ing someone at a higher level will enlighten us.”
Disposition of marijuana cases uncertainMARYSVILLE — Marysville
Police officers arrested two male suspects soon after they had stolen approximately $10,000 in jewelry from the Marysville K-Mart.
On Friday, Nov. 30, just after 3 p.m., Marysville Police responded to a reported theft at K-Mart located in the 9600 block of State Avenue. Store employees indicated an adult male suspect had come into the store and walked back to the jewelry area. He cut two cables that were securing a container with the jewelry and fled the store. The suspect met up with a second adult male who was waiting as a getaway driver in a Ford F150 pickup. The suspects fled northbound away from the store.
A Marysville officer spot-ted the truck and attempted to make a traffic stop. After ini-tially slowing down the truck then sped off and the officer pursued. After approximately two miles the officer termi-nated the pursuit due to the dangerous driving of the flee-ing suspects.
Officers were still driving in the area and spotted the suspect vehicle again, but the passenger was no longer in the truck. Officers again initiated a traffic
stop and this time the driver, a 51-year-old Everett man, was taken into custody.
Officers continued to attempt to locate the second suspect in the surrounding neigh-borhoods. At some point a Marysville officer had stopped and talked to two Marysville citizens who were working in a shop and gave them a descrip-tion of the suspect, specifically that he was wearing all black clothing and was missing one shoe. A short time later the suspect approached the citi-zens and asked them for a ride into Everett. They immediately recognized he was the suspect police were looking for. One of them told the suspect he would give him a ride but that he had to let his girlfriend know and walked out of eyesight of the suspect. He then called 911 and advised the suspect was in his shop.
Marysville Police, with assistance from Snohomish County Sheriff ’s deputies, were able to take the second suspect, a 29-year-old Everett man, into custody.
The jewelry was recovered in the suspect vehicle. There were no injuries or damage to property as a result of the pursuit.

There are so many churches around Marysville that I lose
count. It used to be easy keep-ing track of churches by tallying belfries, steeples and crosses but nowadays you find them settled into schools, theaters and industrial parks. About the only way to spot churches is by concentrations of cars on Sunday morning. It’s trickier on Saturday night or whenever else worshippers gather.
Apalachicola, Fla., in the far corner of the U.S., is a strip town on the Gulf that may well hold the title for the most churches and splinter-groups per thousand in the nation. Twenty-two churches line its one main street. Given that its population of 2,350 holds the usual mix of godless heathens, backsliders and barflies and that a few church regulars might choose to do some Sunday devotions from a bass-boat, the count must drop to where cer-tain congregations could meet around a table in the park.
On the up-side, churches are where Apalachicolans do come together. They reserve time from staring at ball games or clinging to pillows to go to churches to find out how to become better people, neigh-bors and citizens. That’s good.
Time was when stained glass and pipe organs impressed
townspeople enough to fill the pews. In those days, many a preacher made a career of literally scaring the hell out of people. Tent-meeting revivals featured preachers who could switch from the love of Jesus to hell and damnation in a single awe-inspiring breath. These things aren’t working as well today.
A new crop of preachers, believing that love is greater than fear, reach for the heart. As often as not, their parishioners pick up a conviction that there’s important work to be done out there and that if they’re to become a part of it, they have to change, too. It truly feels good to be hooked into higher pur-pose than being consumed by scheduling the week’s TV lineup or fluctuations in the stock market.
Churches run food banks, pre-schools, meals-on-wheels, give scholarships, host Alanon, AA, Boy Scouts, Weight-Watchers, blood bank drawings and, of course, car-washes. Churches are behind the best care facilities, hospitals, meals-on-wheels programs and they
care for unfortunates who fall through the cracks in social welfare systems.
Churches have trouble com-peting with Sunday’s bone-jarring drama of pro-football — or a host of other attractions. People who go to church want to go, and a lot don’t. Some have been turned off from a particu-lar church for good reasons. On the plus side, the coffee and cookies are free and it’s a chance to meet people who, on average, aren’t unhappy.
Though churches won’t put it this way, they offer a sort of insurance policy against unhap-py stuff that life might throw your way. It may not cure sick-ness or pay past-due bills but through some mystical goings-on, it appears to set people up so they can cope with whatever ails them. Bad stuff will still happen but according to what I learned in church, life doesn’t have to get me down and if it does, it doesn’t have to hold me down.
I just visited an old buddy who’s on his final count-down. Kidneys have failed, lungs aren’t working right and his heart won’t last much longer. But he’s not down in the dumps and he’s not scared. How about that? If his time at church set him up to reflect happily on even a portion of a life well lived, that’s not bad.
Why all the churches?

Thank you forsupporting FFA food drive
The Marysville FFA would like to give a giant thanks to everyone that helped with their food drive.
We wanted to thank the Arlington Haggen and Food Pavilion for allowing them to get donations from their amazing costumers. We wanted to give a huge thanks to the Arlington Garden Treasures for their donation of fresh produce. Last but not least to all the residents of the Arlington and Marysville homes that helped out.
The FFA had a total of 6,230 food items donated by the great people of Marysville and Arlington. Our school had a grand total of 71,306. We passed our school goal of 10,000 by a landslide.
I also wanted to say thank you to all the food bank vol-unteers. Without volunteers
the food banks of America wouldn’t still be here so thank you.
Thanks again for every-one’s help toward the food drive and thank you to every-one who has helped the food banks past, present, or in the future.

I live in a small apartment complex on Gilman and I’ve recently had one pile of dog feces in my backyard and two in my front. Why won’t people clean up after their animals? They may as well be actively shovel-ing manure into my yard. I wouldn’t do that to you. Don’t do it to me.

Most will agree that the world seems to be going to hell on a handcart. Television and newspapers keep us up to date on the latest election fraud, mass-murder, rape, abduction, drug-bust and hanky-panky in high places. A status quo isn’t the world that parents want children to grow up with. As part of a genera-tion that messed things up so badly, we ought to be gearing up to make things better.
When good church-type people volunteer to set things right as Peace Corps volunteers or poll watchers or whatever, their projects seldom get hung up in the restrictive world of red-tape and petty regulations. How do you regulate stuff that isn’t generating a profit—other than good will? Threats of controlling volunteerism don’t work because there’s not much in the way of assets or wages to threaten.
Churches have a lot of company in doing good works. Volunteers abound at the YMCA, in city government, Kiwanis, Scouts, Rotary, Soroptimists and Lions and so on. A check on the movers and shakers in every seat of volun-teerism will show a surprising number to be church members of some kind.
If you feel so inclined, try out a church. If it doesn’t fit, try another. When you walk in, stun them with the question, “What’s in it for me?” After they pick themselves up and if you’re in the right place they’ll say, “By God, that’s the most honest question we’ve ever heard around here.” And it’s the best and most honest start.

GRAEF FROM PAGE 4
The public Arlington City Council meeting that was held on Nov. 19 was a resounding wake up call which signaled a message loud and clear. I was hopeful that the advent of a new Mayor and City Council members might bring about a new mindset and put an end to the tax and spend mentality of past administrations.
My wife and I purchased our home in Arlington in 2009. Since then I have gone through more Tums and Mylanta than any man alive as a result of the lack of responsible lead-ership.
I questioned the Council on the merits of the decision-making pro-cess which led to the leasing of a postage stamp piece of land from BSNF. This perpetual lease calls for annual increases of 3 percent. Even though this parcel is crucial to the pending road expansion project and federal grant money for its construc-tion, it still begs a resounding ques-tion. Who in their right mind would agree to lease anything where there are perpetual increases with no end? Clearly the taxpayers will be footing this bill for a very long time.
Last year during the city’s public budget meetings residents sent a resounding objection to the skyrock-
eting water and sewage costs the city imposes on homeowners, however, these objections remained unheard. Let me not forget, of course, the 1 percent property tax increase the City Council unanimously voted for in 2012.
During the City Council meeting on Nov. 19, Financial Director Jim Chase proposed another increase to general property tax levy for 2013, which would increase from $1.31 to $1.41 per $1,000 of assessed valu-ation. Mr. Chase further asserted the 1 percent increase in the gen-eral levy doesn’t even keep up with inflation. What Mr. Chase and the City Council fail to recognize is that working families’ salaries and income fail to keep pace with inflation and the shrinking value of the dollar forces working families to struggle now more than ever to keep pace with inflation.
I keep hearing about population
growth in Arlington, however num-bers can be deceiving. I would love to know if anyone ever considered these facts. How many of these resi-dents are on public assistance? How many are senior citizens living on fixed incomes, or how many of these households have a major breadwin-ner who is now partially or com-pletely disabled. It very easy to spout numbers without considering the impact on Arlington residents’ lives.
Furthermore, raising the property tax now displays the moral compass equal to that of Bernie Madoff. I understand now the city plans on hiring an outside entity to lobby on the city’s behalf to the tune of $50,000.
Again I respectfully ask, isn’t that why we elect candidates for public office? Are they not supposed to speak on the behalf of their constitu-ents? Seems to me Arlington desper-ately needs responsible leadership and not more bureaucrats rubbing elbows, kissing babies or posing for photo ops with veterans. Find me a leader who says, “The buck stops here.”

MARYSVILLE — Marysville Police Officer Derek Carlile will not be retried by the Snohomish County Prosecutor’s Office, but he remains on administra-tive leave with the Marysville Police Department.
“It is necessary for a departmental administra-tive review to take place, and we will continue to move forward with our estab-lished internal process,” said Marysville Police Cmdr. Robb Lamoureux, who added that Carlile’s status with the Marysville Police Department is unchanged.
Joan Cavagnaro, chief criminal deputy pros-ecutor for Snohomish County, explained that the Prosecutor’s Office chose to dismiss second-degree man-slaughter charges against
Carlile after considering the case they made during his first trial, which ended in a mistrial on Nov. 13, with seven jurors who wanted to acquit Carlile, four who wanted to convict him and a remaining juror who was undecided.
“Some of the jurors shared their thoughts with the pros-ecutors and defense attorneys after the trial,” Cavagnaro said. “They gave us some insights on how they viewed the case. It wasn’t an uneven split. Both sides were very sure of their decisions. They just weren’t unanimous.”
After consulting with investigators, Cavagnaro explained that prosecu-tors were satisfied with how they’d presented the evi-dence, to the point that they didn’t anticipate any signifi-cant changes in how they would have presented it in a
second trial.“Sometimes new evidence
comes out of trying a case like this, but that wasn’t the case with this case,” Cavagnaro said. “We’d be in much the same position going into a second trial, so it’s unlikely that we’d get a different result.”
Carlile’s 7-year-old daugh-ter died on March 10 after being shot by her 3-year-old brother with a .38-cali-ber revolver that Carlile had left unsecured in their family van. According to Cavagnaro, the goal of the trial was to determine whether Carlile’s action or inaction constitut-ed criminal negligence in the death of his daughter.
“Obviously, this is a very sad case in which a child died,” Cavagnaro said. “I would urge those who have guns to be extra-careful with them around children.”

ARLINGTON — The family of Elliot Carbajal hosted their fourth blood drive in his honor dur-ing the city of Arlington’s Hometown Holidays cele-bration on Saturday, Dec. 1.
The Carbajal family set up a blood drive in the City Council chambers, from 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., in an effort to raise urgently need-ed donations as some local blood centers are down to a two-day supply of certain blood types. The drive also accepted food donations for the Arlington Food Bank.
The drive was originated after Elliot Carbajal was killed in 2009 and his fam-ily decided to honor his memory by supporting his habit of donating blood.
“The first time we did a blood drive was in January [2010], because we want-ed it to be close to Elliot’s actual memorial service,” said Joyce Phillips, event organizer and Elliot’s sister. “This is our first time at Hometown Holidays.”
Dozens of Hometown Holidays attendees waited in line to donate blood dur-ing the drive, and the food drive had already filled four crates with donations in the first two hours of the event.
The blood drive coincid-ed with the news that Elliot Carbajal would be honored in another way. After his death, Elliot saved the lives of two people by donating his kidneys to those requir-ing transplants.
Carbajal will be hon-ored at the Rose Parade in Pasadena, Calif., on Jan. 1. A floragraph bearing his photo will make its way along the parade route as part of the Donate Life America Rose
Parade Float, titled Journeys of the Heart.
“We were asked to par-ticipate in the parade,” said Phillips. “They’ll bring the floragraph up and we’ll have a finishing event next week-end.”
On Sunday, Dec. 9, the Carbajal family will gath-er at a reception to finish the floragraph and honor Elliott and other donors at Gleneagle Golf Course from 5-9 p.m.
Elliot’s brother Adam Carbajal expressed grati-tude for those who donated
both blood and food during the drive.
“My personal take is that we are giving back to a community that Elliot loved,” he said. “It’s a great community, it’s a safe com-munity. Somewhere around high school age, Elliot real-ized that he could help by donating blood and it didn’t cost anything. He’s donated more than six gallons in his lifetime. I think it’s great that people are coming out to support our cause and are donating and giving back to the community.”

SMOKEY POINT — A free six-week educational series on “Powerful Tools for Caregivers” will run from Jan. 16 through Feb. 20, 2013, from 1:30-4 p.m., at the Stillaguamish Senior Center located at 18308 Smokey Point Blvd. in Arlington.
The Snohomish County
Family Caregiver Support Program aims to provide unpaid family caregivers with the skills they need to better care for themselves while caring for others.
This class is designed to help caregivers develop a wealth of self-care tools to reduce personal stress,
communicate their needs effectively in challenging situations, deal with difficult emotions and make tough caregiving decisions.
Preregistration is required by contacting Debbie Cook by phone at 360-653-4551, ext. 236, or via email at [email protected].

MARYSVILLE — Even before “Merrysville for the Holidays” commenced that afternoon, downtown Marysville was literally singing with holiday cheer on Saturday, Dec. 1, as the stores, sidewalks and stages of Third Street were visited by a duo of strolling musi-cians and an a cappella quar-tet.
“We’ve lost count of how many Christmas seasons we’ve come to Third Street,” said accordionist Bert Carlson, as he and saxophon-ist Herb Hamilton ducked into shops such as Finders Keepers Furnishings while wearing their Victorian peri-od attire. “It just feels like an old-time Christmas, the way Christmas used to be.”
“It’s the camaraderie of the community,” Hamilton agreed. “They’re one big family here.”
On the Outer Court stage adjacent to the Carabinieri Bar espresso stand, the quartet of Ron Foss, Joneen Richards, and Darryl and Karen Handley performed popular seasonal standards while community members dropped off food items for Allen Creek Community Church’s Seeds of Grace, in order to get their families’ photos taken with Santa Claus.
“This is a great stage, but you can’t let yourself get dis-tracted,” Richards laughed, as Karen Handley pointed out that they had to remem-ber to ignore the sounds of the trains and to bring their own lights when their per-
formances go late.“We just hope we can
make what might be a dif-ficult holiday season for some folks a bit more enjoy-able,” Foss said, while prais-ing Carabinieri Bar owner Chrissie Clementson for being such a gracious host.
For her part, Clementson was surprised that her col-lection bucket had already overflowed before Santa had even posed for many photos, but she wasn’t alone since Eric Schoonmaker, co-own-er of Trusty Threads, had to empty out the plastic barrel that was serving as his col-lection bin for St. Joseph’s House, not once or twice or three times, but four times before the afternoon.
“There’s been lots of inter-
est,” said Schoonmaker, who credited the “Passport to Christmas” program by the Downtown Marysville Merchants’ Association with getting people out on the street and into Third Street’s stores that day. “People saw the story in the newspaper, and they like our shops any-way. By having them get their ‘passports’ stamped by all the participating stores, it’s given them an added incentive and turns it into a game.”
“It’s nice to have an atmosphere like this,” said Marja Oosterwyk, owner of Oosterwyk’s Dutch Bakery. Although she wasn’t able
to participate in this year’s “Passport to Christmas” pro-gram, she appreciated the number of filled-up parking spots on the street, which she credited to the program.
Mary Kirkland, owner of the Hilton Pharmacy, agreed that the number of visitors to her store who stopped by to get their “passports” stamped was “a lot.”
“Many of them had never been here before,” said Kirkland, who reported that scented candles proved to be one of her more popu-lar shopping selections that day. “Especially the Indian Summer candles.”

Santa Claus keeps a contented Kyle Paquette on his lap for the boy’s first Christmas.
BY KIRK [email protected]
MARYSVILLE — Santa Claus was a busy guy in Marysville on Saturday, Dec. 1, as he posed for photos not only at the Carabinieri Bar espresso stand for the “Passport to Christmas” and in Comeford Park for “Merrysville for the Holidays,” but also at the Marysville Mall to help raise funds for the Marysville Historical Society.
“The fun thing about this is that we’ve had a lot of repeat customers,” MHS President Ken Cage said. “A number of kids have come all four years that we’ve had this, but we’ve also had some newcomers this year, who saw the story in The Marysville Globe.”
The Santa photo sales were supplemented that day by a bake sale and a raffle prize table, with Cage bragging that the brownies, cookies, fudge and other baked goods were all handmade by MHS members.
“With $50 from raffle tick-et sales, $20 in goodies sold and about 50-60 kids who came in, I’m guessing we probably made around $400 all told,” MHS Treasurer Meg Engelter said that afternoon, even as families continued to come in for their Santa pho-tos. “By gathering up their emails, we hope to be able to let them know next year when we offer Santa photos again.”
Engelter and Marysville City Council member Steve Muller, also a Board member of the Marysville Historical Society, agreed that the pri-mary fundraising focus for the MHS remains its long-awaited museum and com-munity center.
“It’s going to be more than a museum,” said Muller, who noted that the hear-ing examiner will review the conditional use permit for the facility at 7 p.m. on Thursday, Dec. 13.
City of Marysville offi-cials and representatives of local service clubs joined MHS members in break-ing ground at the site for the facility, adjacent to the Jennings Park Barn area, on Aug. 25 of this year.
Muller touted the facil-ity’s planned 200-person grand hall, which he sees as a means of turning it into a center of social and cultural activity, which in turn could provide its own revenue stream.
“We won’t have to go out of town for our big celebra-tions,” Muller said.
In the meantime, one of the Marysville Historical Society’s most pressing needs is more volunteers, so those who are interested or would like more infor-mation should call Cage at 360-659-3090.
The Marysville Historical Society is located in Suite B at 1508 Third St.
Santa photos raise funds for Historical Society
Farmers Market hosts Handmade HolidayBY LAUREN SALCEDO
ARLINGTON — For the second year in a row the Arlington Farmer’s Market has hosted Handmade Holiday, a craft and local goods market at the Co-Op, on Saturday, Dec. 1, dur-ing the city of Arlington’s Hometown Holidays cel-ebration.
The Co-Op accessory building was packed with shoppers looking to snag hand-crafted goods, winter veggies and even pictures with Santa.
“We are definitely on track to be better attended than last year,” said Samantha Schuller, event coordinator. “I’d say that’s because of our reputation for having real-ly high-quality handmade items. We have fewer ven-dors than last year, but it’s all supreme quality. It’s just really good stuff.”
The market offered locally grown plants and vegetables, baked goods, local honey, truffles, knitted hats, cro-cheted scarves, handmade Christmas ornaments, vin-tage-inspired jewelry, hand-
made soaps and more.Victory Ralston, a
15-year-old Arlington resi-dent, started her own busi-ness two years ago and began selling her own cre-ations online and at Bella Bungalow, an Arlington boutique.
“I’ve always loved crafty things and I love vintage and I thought I’d combine the two into handmade vin-tage-inspired things,” she said. Ralston sold a variety of her items at Handmade Holiday, her second year there.
“I like that it’s during the holiday time, because my items make really good gifts,” said Ralston, who also sells her wares at www.vin-tagebyvictory.etsy.com.
Christina Corvin of Marysville is another ven-dor who chose to sell her products at the market for the second year in a row.
“I love the Arlington Farmers Market,” she said. “There’s a great sense of community and environ-mental responsibility.”
Corvin has been crochet-ing for 17 years and selling
her creations for two years. She sold hats, scarves and more at the market.
The event spanned from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Santa Claus made an appear-ance for photos from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. The city of Arlington was hosting its Hometown Holidays event at the same time which helped expose hundreds of visitors to the craft mar-ket. Handmade Holiday also offered a $5 per ticket raffle to win a live 5-foot
noble fir Christmas tree completely decked out with ornaments, decorations and gifts from the vendors, with proceeds going to sup-port the Farmers Market.
“There is so much great stuff on there, I almost want to win it myself,” joked Schuller.
For more informa-tion about the Arlington Farmers Market and upcoming events visit www.arlingtonfarmersmar-ket.blogspot.com.

they have tremendous sto-ries. Many of them thought they were set for life, until series of events led them to the Food Bank.”
In the current econo-my, Deierling pointed to a number of grandparents who have found themselves providing shelter for their grandchildren, or even their adult children, and wonder-ing how budgets that would have provided comfortably for their own expenses can now be stretched to feed an extended family.
In addition to its regular distribution times, the Food Bank also conducts home deliveries twice a month to those who are housebound, and just as the Food Bank provided Thanksgiving-themed meals, so too will its volunteers pack Christmas meal baskets later this month, in conjunction with their toy store on Dec. 19-20 at Dunn Lumber.
“The way the Food Bank works is, if people need
help, they’ll get it, but once they reach the point where they can give help, many of them choose to do so,” said Deierling, who described area students as “our secret weapon” for donations, while also encouraging adults in local businesses and service clubs to con-tinue to expand their con-tributions. “You can make the collection drives into a competition. Volunteering is a great way to get hands-on interaction with your community.”
Tania Siler, site manager for Seattle Goodwill Job Training and Education, reminded Business Before Hours attendees about the Marysville Goodwill’s reg-istration period, from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. on Dec. 10-13, for free job training classes.
“These classes are open to anyone seeking to overcome economic barriers,” Siler said. “The only requirement is that you’re either looking for work or building your skills to get a better job.”
According to Siler, the 10 Job Training and Education
Centers under the purview of the Seattle Goodwill have enrolled 4,400 students, helped 700 get connected with new jobs and provided support services for 34,000 in the past year.
“All our proceeds go back into teaching and retail,” Siler said. “On Dec. 26, we’ll be offering 50 percent off on all color-tagged items.”
Lt. Col. Harold Brodin, Marysville/Tulalip pro-gram coordinator for the Salvation Army, character-ized his group’s outreach to the needy as “a demonstra-tion of the love of God,” devoid of any discrimina-tion based on race, creed or circumstances.
“From the rocking horse to the rocking chair, we’re here to serve the whole person,” said Brodin, who listed Salvation Army pro-grams for the less fortunate including adult rehabilita-tion centers, work therapy programs funded by thrift store sales at no cost to the clients, summer camps run on a scholarship basis and low-income senior housing supported by HUD, such
as their sites in Seattle and Puyallup.
“As with Hurricane Sandy, we’re among the first to arrive at natural disasters, and we’re still there to pro-vide canteens for the rescue workers,” Brodin said.
The Salvation Army’s other area services include free weekly meals for the needy, limited prescription assistance, donated cloth-ing, bus tickets for specific necessary appointments and transitional housing.
“We want to help people solve their problems by giv-ing them a hand up, not a hand-out,” said Brodin, who noted that volunteers are one of the Salvation Army’s most pressing needs during the holiday season, espe-cially with the “Battle of the Bells” enlisting individuals and groups to ring the bell for the Salvation Army at various stores throughout Snohomish County.

MARYSVILLE — The Marysville-Pilchuck girls basketball team had a rocky start to their season after losing the season opening game at home against Arlington High School on Wednesday, Nov. 28.
The Eagles pulled out a victory over the Tomahawks with a 56-31 non-league win, but the Tommies started out giving the 4A school a challenge.
For the first half of the game the Tomahawks kept the Eagles in check with strong offensive plays, scoring near-ly as many times as their opponents. Top scorers for the evening included 6-foot tall junior forward and point guard Jenika Anglim, who made 11 points for the team. Charlee Pilon, a 5-foot-11 junior guard, scored eight points includ-ing one 3-pointer. Binta Bojang, a 5-foot-10 junior forward, scored six points and showed strength in defense.
“Binta Bojang was awesome defen-sively, she blocked out really well,” said M-P head coach Julie Martin.
The score was close going into half-time, with the Eagles maintaining a 24-19 lead. The second half sealed the deal for Arlington when they scored an
additional 32 points, while M-P only managed 12 points.
“I’m just really excited that we get to play such great caliber teams like Arlington,” said Martin. “In the first half tonight we played really well and were very solid on defense.”
The Marysville-Pilchuck team is fairly young, with five returners and only one senior.
“Our juniors are really talking to the younger players and being good lead-ers,” said Martin. “We have a really great bunch of girls who work really well together. I was really proud of the way they worked together tonight.”
The Tomahawks played Snohomish, another 4A school, in an away game on Friday, Nov. 30, and lost the game 55-44. They led the game for the first half, but Snohomish outscored them in the sec-ond. M-P’s Abi Otto scored 15 points, while her teammate Amanda Kalab scored 14. The team played Bothell in an away game on Saturday, Dec. 1, and won their first game of the season with a 42-36 victory. Jordan Bengen scored 13 points, while Jenika Anglim scored 10 points.
They are set to play Lake Stevens in a non-league away game on Wednesday, Dec. 5. Their record is now 1-2 overall.
Eagles pummel Tomahawks 56-31

ARLINGTON — The Tomahawks boys basketball team faced some chal-lenges in their first week of play, as they faced only 4A schools.
Marysville-Pilchuck lost their season opening game against Arlington High School on Tuesday, Nov. 27, as the Eagles managed a 58-43 victory.
Although they didn’t win, the Tomahawks also weren’t dominated. Despite the larger size of their opponents’ school, they put up a good fight.
M-P’s 6-foot junior guard Kyle Garton scored 12 points during the game, including three 3-pointers. His team-mate, 6-foot-3 junior Austin Lobaugh, also scored three 3-pointers and 11 total points during the game. Conner Martinis, a 6-foot-2 junior, scored five points, including one 3-pointer, as did 6-foot-1 junior James Couls. Michael Painter, a 6-foot-4 sophomore, scored four points as did 6-foot-2 junior Dante Fields, while 6-foot-4 junior TJ Rice scored two points.
The first half of the game held more hope for the Tomahawks as they main-tained consistent possession of the ball and were only behind 24-21 going into halftime. The Eagles came out tough offensively in the third quarter to put up another 14 points, while the Tommies only managed seven.
M-P kept pace with Arlington’s scor-
ing during the fourth quarter, managing another 15, but the early lead by the Eagles held and Arlington took it, 58-43.
“Our young team has been battling against some tough opponents,” said M-P head coach Bary Gould. “We are getting better with each game and practice. We have had some hard-fought losses against high quality 4A opponents — Arlington, Snohomish and Issaquah.”
Snohomish took a 67-44 victory over the Tommies on Friday, Nov. 30, while Issaquah pulled off a 78-46 win.
“This week we face another difficult task on Tuesday at home against Lake Stevens. We will open our league schedule on Friday at home against our crosstown rivals Marysville Getchell,” said Gould.
The results of the Lake Stevens game on Tuesday, Dec. 4, were not available by press time, although the Vikings began their season with two non-league losses, to both Mead, and Lewis and Clark.
Gould is impressed by his team’s dedica-tion and believes that they have a strong potential to be one of the top 3A schools.
“Our players are very hard workers and are excited to play our first league game,” he said. “Some top performers so far have been Conner Martinis, Austin Lobaugh and James Couls. All of our guys are stocked full of potential and are poised to make a run for the 3A playoffs.”
The Tomahawks face the Marysville Getchell Chargers at home on Friday, Dec. 7.

LAKEWOOD — This December will mark a number of firsts for the Lakewood High School Drama group — their first holiday play, which is also their first staging of “It’s a Wonderful Life,” the first time that many of the high school actors have worked with younger actors onstage, and some unique casting for a few of the main characters.
“It’s a Wonderful Life” takes to the LHS stage at 7 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 7, and Saturday, Dec. 8, as well as on the following Friday and Saturday, Dec. 14-15, with nearly two dozen high school actors, two middle school actors and two elementary school actors, after LHS Drama teacher Rebecca White was inspired last spring to put on something appropriate for the winter festivities that could also accommodate the larger cast size that’s typical of the school’s fall and winter plays. In order to meet the ratio of male to female actors, however, some characters got notice-able makeovers.
While junior Bryce Shepard and senior Alethea Cody are playing George and Mary Bailey, fellow senior Brianna Winegar is playing wheelchair-bound rich villain Mr. Potter as “Ms. Potter,” just as junior Kaley Trapp plays the angel
Clarence as “Clarisse.”“She’s obviously younger
than Lionel Barrymore, but I also try to play her more classy and sneaky,” Winegar said of her role. “She doesn’t just straight-up hate everyone else, but she wants to own every-thing they have.”
To distinguish Ms. Potter visually, Winegar dons more elegant-looking furs.
Trapp likewise acknowl-edged that Clarisse is much younger than Clarence, but she still plays the charac-ter as old enough to be matronly, albeit in an inten-tionally comic fashion.
While Shepard and Cody’s takes on George and Mary are not nearly as far removed from the original versions of the characters, the young actors still felt compelled to create their own takes, rather than merely imitating Jimmy Stewart and Donna Reed.
“I think Bryce plays George as more confused, while Jimmy Stewart was more shocked,” White said. “With Bryce, there’s always this, ‘What’s going on?’”
Cody enjoyed working with the younger actors who play George and Mary’s children, which includes Cody’s younger sister, and she found the coordina-tion of the “Buffalo Gals” sequence to be challenging yet rewarding.
“Donna Reed’s Mary is more sweet and lets other people influence her a bit
more,” Cody said. “I try to make Mary a bit stronger and more influential over others.”
“The biggest challenge for me is just being on the stage almost non-stop for two hours,” Shepard said of his role. “That’s also the fun part, though.”
While Winegar’s block-ing in her wheelchair has posed some problems, her
enthusiasm for finally play-ing a villain has made it all worthwhile to her.
The bustling cast has been rehearsing since the first week of October, after auditions late in September, and the actors have found themselves averaging a dozen hours of work a week
on the play, whose exten-sive set design includes a house, a bridge, an office, a porch and a cemetery.
“I’ve always loved the movie, so it just seemed natural to bring it to life,” White said.
The Saturday, Dec. 15, showing will be a dinner
theater. General admis-sion is $7, while seniors, children aged 3-10 years and students with ASB will pay $5. Children aged 2 years and younger will be admitted for free. For more information, email White at [email protected].

O.D. Burright, born on March 12, 1933 in Logan County, Oklahoma, was the third of four siblings; one brother and two sisters of Orrin and Mabel Burright. In 1940 the Burright family moved to Portland, Oregon from Oklahoma. In 1962 O.D. moved his family to Marysville, Washington just off of Firetrail Road.
During a routine physical examination in 2000 O.D. was diagnosed with multiple myeloma, a blood cancer. After being diagnosed and facing a prognosis of only a few months to live, O.D. got a second opinion, underwent chemotherapy, radiation and a stem cell transplant that his oncologist recommended. But, in time, realizing that only traditional treatments could not stave off the cancer; he and his son did extensive
research and developed a recipe for survival -- dietary changes, an exercise regimen, and better management of stress, to weaken the cancer. He beat the odds of having a disease that, for many other people, has taken their lives much earlier. He fought a courageous 12 ½ -year battle against cancer before it finally claimed him at home on Monday, November 26th in Vancouver, Washington.
“He was such an amazing guy,” said his son, Mark. “He was so caring and that came
across with other cancer patients and the cancer community. He was one of those healing individuals that are almost impossible to be in a room with and not come away without feeling better. He had an amazing impact on people”.
He loved his 1969 Chevy Impala, NASCAR, and was Greg Biffle’s biggest fan. Watching Greg race his #16 the past 12 years was an important part of O.D.’s therapy. He never missed a race.
O.D is survived by his wife of 60 years, Darlene, a sister Illa Faye, his son, Mark, a grandson Jeffrey, and a great grandson, Tigran.
Contributions in O.D.’s memory may be given to Help4Cancer.net at 1400 NE 136th Avenue, Vancouver, WA. 98684.
