ARLINGTON — Snohomish County elec-tion results show Arlington Mayor Barbara Tolbert narrowly retaining her seat, while a perma-nent Emergency Medical
Services property tax levy for North County looks likely to pass.
In the Arlington mayor’s race, first-term incumbent Barbara Tolbert received 53 percent, or 1,084 votes, while challenger Craig Christianson received 47 percent, or 958 votes.
This close margin gives Christianson plenty of hope, but even if he doesn’t win, he’s been blown away by how much support he’s received, and he appreci-ates how much he’s learned about the political process and what’s going on in his hometown.
“It’s been an emotional roller-coaster,” Christianson said. “If I don’t win, I don’t know if I’d run again. It wears you out. Then again, I said I wouldn’t run again four years ago.”
Tolbert did not respond
Mayor, EMS levy both win

Construction crews clear out trees at the site of where they are building a helispot for Cascade Valley Hospital in Arlington.
KIRK [email protected]
ARLINGTON — The construction of Cascade Valley Hospital’s new helispot was met with some criticism Nov. 2, as two neighbors addressed the City Council with concerns.
Jesse Scott and Brian White both have homes on Medical Center Drive.
“This morning, I walked out my door to find the earth moving,” said Scott, who received a letter noti-fying him of construction
Nov. 2. “It doesn’t seem like they care about the folks who live around here.”
White read about con-struction over the weekend, but criticized the vague description of the helispot’s location. Like Scott, he argued the hospital’s neigh-bors should have been sent prior notice much sooner, preferably through a com-munity meeting with a peri-od for public comment.
Heather Logan, assistant administrator of the hos-pital, later clarified that
the helispot will occupy a 1,600-square-foot space east of S. Stillaguamish Avenue and north of E. Highland Drive. This space is cur-rently a grassy field, with trees being cut down as part of the first phase of con-struction, which is expected to last up to six weeks.
“We’ve had some of those trees blow over and come down on cars in the park-ing lot during heavy wind-storms, so this is a bonus,” Logan said.
Logan confirmed what
city administrator Paul Ellis told Scott and White at the council meeting, that the helispot is small enough to fall within existing hospi-tal zoning, and is therefore exempt from permitting or public hearings.
Construction will include ground work, installing a concrete pad, painting and lighting. Patients now need-ing air transport are driven to Arlington Municipal Airport by medic units.
Logan had intended to get word out to the commu-
nity two weeks prior to the start of construction, which was originally scheduled for Nov. 16, but when the con-tractor reported it was ready to start work early, the hos-pital didn’t want to pass up the opportunity.
When Scott suggested building the helispot at a different location, one that he estimated would add only a few minutes to EMS crews’ trips, council mem-ber Chris Raezer made the
Hospital’s new helispot lands concerns from neighbors

same assertion that Jennifer Egger, community relations coordinator for the hospital, would reiterate later, that a few extra min-utes can mean the differ-ence between life and death.
“We’re dealing with the critically ill and injured, and everything from pregnan-cies to strokes,” Egger said. “When we’re transporting patients to the Harborview
stroke center, just that much more time could result in permanent brain damage.”
To make the construc-tion period more conve-nient, work will be limited to daylight hours during weekdays. Another concern Scott voiced was about how motorists’ visibility would be impacted by bright heli-copter lights during heavy rain or darkness.
Ellis and Logan both noted that the hospital’s current volume of helicop-
ter flights is no more than two a month, with Logan adding that not all of those flights take place at night.
“Besides, this has been a hospital zone for decades, with the noises and lights of ambulances and other emergency traffic,” Logan said. “Those helicopters certainly won’t be any brighter than the football stadium we’ve been using as a temporary landing pad for them.”
Indeed, Ellis and Logan
both reminded the commu-nity that the football stadi-um had only been intended as a temporary landing pad for helicopters.
“This is a replacement for the helispot that we already had and lost, when the hospital was renovated a few years ago,” Logan said. “We empathize with our neighbors and don’t want to diminish their concerns, but our whole focus here is on ensuring better patient outcomes and safety.”

to numerous requests for comment.
In the Arlington City Council races, first-term Position 4 incumbent Randy Tendering received 48 percent, or 946 votes, while challenger Sue Weiss received 51 percent, or 1,004 votes.
Weiss will remain “cau-tiously optimistic” until the results are certified.
“I hope to work with the
council and the mayor to keep taxes down and the budget in check,” said Weiss, who also favors keeping the city’s fire and emergency medical services fully fund-ed and staffed.
Tendering is “not ready to throw in the towel yet,” cit-ing more than 1,000 ballots that have yet to be counted.
Tendering’s greatest dis-may was the low turnout of the election, in which roughly two-thirds of eli-gible voters didn’t cast a ballot. “It’s sad to think
that many people don’t care who their mayor will be, or how their tax money will be spent,” Tendering said.
In the open Position 6 race, Mike Hopson received 65 percent, or 1,259 votes, while Jacob Kukuk received 27 percent, or 523 votes. First-term incumbent Austin DeFreece III, who was appointed to the seat a few months ago, ran as a write-in candidate. Write-ins received 8 percent, or 157 votes.
Hopson first ran for a seat on the council two years ago, but he’d begun attend-ing council meetings four years ago.
“I was a relative unknown who got beat pretty handily, but I got my name out there and found some support,” Hopson said. “I’m gratified that the issues I addressed touched a nerve.”
Among Hopson’s top priorities has been a Manufacturing Industrial Center for Arlington and Marysville.
“We need to get that up and running so we’ll have a tax base that can support city services such as fire and police, which are very expensive in a city this size,” Hopson said. “I won’t be a lone wolf on the coun-cil, but I won’t be afraid to speak my mind, either.”
Kukuk thanked his sup-porters for believing that a 26-year-old like him could get elected, and pledged to continue his efforts to “shrink the age gap in our political system.”
DeFreece’s plans for the future are more nebulous. While he isn’t ruling out another council run, he emphasized that such a decision would depend on several factors.
“I’ll be staying aware of the issues,” DeFreece said. “I’ve learned so much already. I hope the right opportunity will come along again.”
Fourth-term Position 5
incumbent Marilyn Oertle received 68 percent, or 1,295 votes, while challeng-er Natalie Reed received 32 percent, or 603 votes.
The North County Regional Fire Authority’s EMS property tax levy, ask-ing voters to authorize a permanent regular levy of 50 cents or less per $1,000 of assessed property value, received 64 percent, or 1,672 “Yes” votes, and 36 percent, or 941 “No” votes.
“Our Emergency Medical Services don’t go unno-ticed,” said Fire Chief John Cermak, who estimated that EMS makes up as much as 80 percent of North County’s calls.

LEGAL NOTICES
November 7, 2015 3The Arlington Times / The Marysville Globe
By STEVE [email protected]
MARYSVILLE – The Marysville School Board Nov. 2 decided to send three administrators to Roseburg, OR to advise Umpqua Community College about a campus shooting.
Superintendent Becky Berg, assistant superinten-dent Ray Houser and direc-tor of counseling Josh Webb went there Nov. 3 and talked to Umpqua officials about what to expect in the days, weeks and months ahead.
“Although we were just meeting their leadership team for the first time, their faces looked very familiar,” Berg said Nov. 5. “They looked like we did a year earlier: exhausted and still in a bit of disbelief.
“Our hope is that we were able to provide some prac-tical advice, but perhaps more importantly some understanding and kinship during the worst of times.”
Five Marysville-Pilchuck High School students died in a shooting Oct. 24 of last year. Ten people died in a shooting near Roseburg at the college Oct. 1.
At the board meeting, Jack Monpas-Huber, direc-tor of assessment and stu-dent information, talked about North Star Indicators.
Regarding attendance, he
said unexcused absences are down slightly. In aca-demics, Monpas-Huber said the goal in reading is 100 percent at the end of first grade, and right now just 50 percent are at grade level.
He said reading skills improve every year until high school, and then it spreads out. By 12th grade, some students are reading at standard but others are as low as fifth-grade level.
As for graduation rates, Monpas-Huber said Marysville is in the 50th percentile in the state at 70.3 percent, compared with its goal of 85 percent. “It’s a little discouraging consider-ing our focus on this.”
Also at the meeting, Principal Kelly Sheward and staff talked about Marshall Elementary. In their power-point school officials talked about the goal of getting 95 percent attendance at each grade level, decreasing late arrivals and early dismiss-als to keep kids in school learning. To help first-grad-ers improve reading skills 20 percent, they are using intense intervention for 30 minutes four times a week.
At the work session, Principal Dave Rose and staff talked about the School for the Entrepreneur at Marysville Getchell High School. Teachers are focus-ing on four things: Respect,
Engagement, Courage and Responsibility.
Students also are shar-ing senior presentations on what they have learned, and also talking to younger stu-dents about what they wish they would have done.
School Board Member Pete Lundberg said he’s proud of MG for continuing senior presentations. “Some are giving it up. I wish all were doing it,” he said.
Staff also talked about how many students have to get themselves out of bed and to school each morn-ing because their parents work nights, some having two jobs. So the school has staff at MG as early as 5:30 a.m. to help kids. Berg said discussions are going on to possibly allow some cred-its to be valid from eighth grade once the graduation requirement increases to 24 credits needed for gradu-ation. “Then there’d be some room for error in high school,” she said.
They also talked about trying to get more kids to think about higher educa-tion, and bringing gradu-ates back to talk to students about the need to get seri-ous about school to be suc-cessful.
“That has more impact peer to peer than with a teacher,” school board member Chris Nation said.
Locals share shooting knowledgeBY STEVE [email protected]
MARYSVILLE – School district Superintendent Becky Berg will be the grand marshal at the Merrysville for the Holidays Dec. 5.
Parks director Jim Ballew made the announcement at the City Council work ses-sion Nov. 2.
He also said the Farmer’s Market will be back next summer, after more than $36,000 in sales this year. He said 4,500 people went to the market, about 300 a week, with 45 total vendors participating, averaging about 17 a week.
Ballew added the Snohomish Health District is paying for 40 signs that will be put up in city parks about Marysville’s new “no vaping” policy.
Meanwhile, the council will consider an ordinance that prohibits occupying a residence that does not have water or sewer service. Following the economic downturn there has been an increase in foreclosed and vacant properties.
City Attorney Jon Walker said the law would help
police who deal with people trespassing on vacant prop-erty. It forces homeowners to secure the premises. If they don’t, city public works
can board up the house.
Walker said the situation m o s t l y a r i s e s w h e n ownership of a home
is in limbo after lenders package mortgages.
Also, the council looked at funding recommenda-tions from the Community Beautification Program Grant Review Committee.
“It’s a good partner-ship,” Chief Administrative Officer Gloria Hirashima said. “It’s an example of neighbors trying to help themselves.”
Most of the funds are going to HOA groups that will add funding and/or labor. Others are to groups of people with no HOA, but who want to fix up common areas for safety or other rea-sons. That panel recom-mended $5,000 grants to:
•Tuscany Homeowners Association, replacement of fence along community park perimeter
•Kellogg Village Homeowners Association, replacement of fence around park at entrance to neighborhood
•102nd Place NE, clean-up of stormwater ponds at entrance to neighborhood
•Rolling Green Estates, replacement of trees in community park
•Otter Creek, fencing of detention pond and vegeta-tion cleanup/removal
The committee recom-mended $500 for Sunnyside Estates to replant the neigh-borhood gateway at the sub-division entrance.
The council also came out of executive session and approved buying two properties on First Street for a future bypass. Mayor Jon Nehring said the bypass will help traffic flow in the future when Highway 529 off Interstate 5 gets its onramp and offramp. The council also discussed con-demnation of properties to widen First Street, “if we can’t negotiate a sale,” Hirashima said.

4 THE ARLINGTON TIMES.THE MARYSVILLE GLOBE November 7, 2015THE PUBLIC FORUM
In Arlington, we’re growing rapidly through-out many areas of the city, which is wonderful to see because it means that busi-nesses, industries and new residents are attracted by a friendly, well-located, pro-development community.
We also have another dis-tinction – being one of the few remaining areas where businesses can find parcels of undeveloped land with good utilities, roadways, local workers and commu-nications networks already in place.
Economic development is essential to provide employ-ment, housing and addi-tional retail investment in a community. All of that is necessary for a commu-nity’s growth, expanded tax revenue base and the economic strength needed to produce a quality living environment for residents. We experienced the devas-tation to the local economy when the Meridian (for-mer Bayliner) plant closed in 2011 and 800 employees lost jobs. One great recent example of the benefits of having resources like our Arlington Manufacturing Center is that businesses
and industries find us when t h e y ’ r e planning their own g r o w t h , g i v i n g access to f a m i l y wage jobs for our residents.
Bellevue developer Chris Gayte approached us recent-ly about developing land for a $100 million manufac-turing and industrial park that will ultimately provide for up to 2,000 family wage jobs. Four months of land clearing was to begin by late October, followed by the construction of 11 state-of-the-art buildings. He was attracted not only by the well-situated property of the former NW Hardwoods site and Weyerhaeuser log pro-cessing center but also, as he told us, by the city’s pro-fessional attitude and our streamlined online permit-ting system we developed over the last several years. That makes a big difference to developers.
Gayte said he had researched the whole Puget Sound region and
found 54 acres of ready-to-develop property in an area with plentiful utilities, housing, shopping centers and a transportation grid that provides access to I-5, Highway 9 and 67th Ave. NE, as well as access to the adjacent Arlington Airport. His development will not only create many construc-tion jobs but also provide incentives for retail devel-opment in the area, includ-ing downtown Arlington, which will help broaden the city’s tax base.
Economic development is promoted in many ways, some more subtle than oth-ers. Over the past four years, for instance, I’ve networked with many groups and indi-viduals to spread the word of Arlington’s prime location and advantages for busi-ness and industrial invest-ments. Arlington is an eco-nomic development partner with Economic Alliance Snohomish County, I hold a seat on the Puget Sound Regional Council, and I stay in touch regu-larly with the Snohomish County Council, Everett Community College, state Department of Commerce and political leaders in
Olympia to tell Arlington’s story. We have a great community to talk about, including our focus on developing new businesses and industry to create new jobs.
Another reason I believe in a variety of economic development is that for 22 years I’ve contributed my own share of bringing eco-nomic benefits to our com-munity as executive direc-tor of the annual Arlington Fly-In. Each event draws some 50,000 people to enjoy aviation exhibits and air shows, a crowd that also benefits the downtown Arlington street fair during the same days. Being a part-time mayor – although it doesn’t always seem like it’s part time – I can continue to manage the Fly-In and contribute my own slice of economic development and public entertainment to our community. Those are just a few of the reasons that I believe economic develop-ment of all kinds benefit our whole community in so many ways.

Praise to all who put together and participated in the Walk of Strength at Marysville-Pilchuck High School on the anniversary of the shooting. It was a fitting way to honor the victims.
Praise to Arlington for being flexible enough to get the Gayteway Project to come to town. It will be a boom for both Arlington and Marysville, providing 2,000 jobs.
Praise to the Marysville high schools’ volleyball teams for raising money for a family whose mom just died of cancer.
Praise to Cascade Valley Hospital’s “Pink Night Out” to encourage women to take care of health issues.
Praise to all who voted in the election this week.Raze to those who wanted this newspaper to do hatchet
jobs on candidates by providing information late that they could have given us months ago. We can do accurate sto-ries only if given time to check out the facts. We were not protecting anyone, just being fair.
Praise to the Arlington Arts Council for honoring George Boulton. By George it was about time.
Praise to Marysville Middle School for attempts to get students to want to come to school.
Praise to Grace Academy for honoring local first responders at a luncheon.
Praise to Angela and Chris Kuhn for putting Arlington on the map when it comes to skateboarding.
Raze to the kidnapper who raced through Marysville, putting lives at risk.
Praise to local police for backing off the chase because of the danger.
Praise to the Recovery Cafe for their Marysville Opera House event to raise funds for the homeless.
Praise to Arlington firefighters for coming forward and saying they are feeling overwhelmed. We don’t want our firefighters to feel that way. The city needs to return to having both a fire and police chief because the public safety director can’t be everywhere at once.
Praise to Arlington for its first Viking Fest. Not only is it a fun way to look at history, it’s also a good way to bring tourists to town in the fall.
Praise to the Rhodes River Ranch for putting on events like the Seattle Knights so we don’t have to go to the big city to get big-city entertainment.
Praise to Marysville for buying more land on Ebey Slough. We are going to have an amazing waterfront.
Raze to the two locals who were arrested recently on charges related to sex and children. Leave our precious kids alone.
Buying a house is one of the most exciting events in your life — especially when it’s your first. But wanting to buy and being ready to buy can be two different things. Here are five indications that you’re ready:
1. You’re relatively settled. Are you in an area you like, and that you can see yourself staying in for at least three years? If you don’t think you can stay put for that long, it may be cost-prohibitive to buy now. Closing costs can be thousands of dollars, and unless your home appreci-ates quickly, you will not likely recoup those costs if you sell sooner.
2. You have a sav-ings account. This is vital because you’re going to need it. First-time buyers are often surprised by how many costs pop up in the course of their home-pur-chase.
Here are the basics:a. Earnest money. Think
of this as “skin in the game.” The seller wants to make sure you have something at stake in this deal. If you walk away from the house because your financing
falls through, or you don’t like the inspection report, you won’t lose your earnest money (as long as you’ve included those contingen-cies in your contract). But if you simply decide at the last minute that you don’t want to buy the house, the seller could potentially keep the
e a r n e s t m o n e y . b. Down payment. This is the a m o u n t required by your l e n d e r for your
particular financing. If you qualify for a VA loan (meaning you’re an eligi-ble military veteran), your loan doesn’t require a down payment. Down payment on an FHA loan can be as low as 3.5 percent, where a conventional loan is typi-cally between 5 percent and 20 percent. Bear in mind, though, that any time you put less than 20 percent down on your mortgage, you will automatically be charged a monthly PMI (private mortgage insur-
ance), which can add between .5 percent to 1 percent of the entire loan amount on an annual basis.
c. Inspection fee. You can decline to have an inspec-tion on the house you’re trying to buy, but I would never counsel a client to do so. You need to know what you’re buying. Inspectors’ fees vary, but you can expect to pay from $300 on up depending on the size of the house, and this cost must be paid upfront.
3. You’re pre-approved. Shopping for houses before you’ve met with a lender and gone through the steps to get a pre-approval letter is a little like shopping for a car before you’ve gotten your license. In today’s competi-tive market, you can’t make an offer on a house without that all-important letter. But there’s another good reason for getting that pre-approv-al: knowing your shopping limit prevents disappoint-ment. It’s best to know that number before you look at even one house, because if you get your heart set on a more expensive house than what you can actually
afford, nothing you look at afterwards will compare.
4. You’re realistic. You understand there’s no such thing as a perfect house, and you’re prepared to compro-mise on less-important fea-tures. You’re also aware that the home-buying process takes time and patience; that you’ll be asked to gath-er and provide all sorts of documents; that negotiat-ing is a give-and-take pro-cess; and that set-backs and detours can and do happen.
5. You’re as excited as your realtor. This may sound funny, but it’s never a good sign when I am more motivated to look at houses than my client is. If you’re anxious to get out there and tour homes, and you are willing to adjust your schedule in order to see a house that just came on the market, that’s a good indi-cation that you’re ready to buy.

IN OUR VIEW
Praise and raze
By Steve PowellOur final CERT class-
room experience Nov. 3 was mostly a review for the fake disaster we will be a part of next week. Some of the material for the Certified Emergency Response Team was new and more in-depth.
Such as, when starting tri-age, if a disaster victim is not breathing, tilt the head back to open the airway. If respirations are over 30 or
under eight move them to red, which means they need urgent care. If they have a pulse and can follow simple commands move to yellow, which means care can be delayed. If they can’t follow commands move to red.
Instructor Chris Badger explained the organizational chart in a disaster. An inci-dent commander will have section chiefs for opera-tions, logistics, planning and administration. CERT vol-unteers are worker bees in operations. They will help with fire suppression, search and rescue, and medical. When volunteers show up they are asked what they are
most proficient at or com-fortable doing, and they are given those jobs.
If a building is lightly damaged, the fire team will put out small fires with extinguishers, shut off utili-ties as needed and docu-ment. Make sure to use the correct extinguisher and remember PASS, for Pull, Aim, Squeeze and Sweep at the base of the fire.
The SAR team will locate victims, provide initial tri-age, treat airway and major bleeding, and document. Draw a slash (/) when you go
into a building and put what time you went in. When you come out, complete the X and note the time and other important informa-tion - number of dead and live victims, personal haz-ards, etc. Remove the walk-ing wounded and get them to help if you can. Tag the rest Immediate, Delayed or Dead. The medical team will triage in more depth, move victims to areas for treat-ment, do head-to-toe assess-ments and document.
If a building is damaged more than that, it is best
for CERT team and volun-teers to wait for profession-als because of the danger. In a disaster help family and neighbors then go to the nearest fire station to help. Bring your personal safety kit, and tools such as extin-guishers, shovels, etc.
Other training was re-emphasized, such as don’t just run into a disaster. Size up the situation first. What will you safely be able to do? You can’t help anyone if you get hurt. Always work with a buddy, for your safety and theirs. Other reminders:
•Equipment: including water, purification tablets, leather gloves, goggles, dust masks, flashlights and extra batteries, note pads, duct tape, fire aid kit, etc.

ARLINGTON – Detectives are looking for witnesses to a fatal collision that involved two vehicles
and resulted in the death of Austin Hooper, a 21- year-old Darrington man.
The incident occurred
near the 30800 block of Swede Heaven Road around 2 a.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 28, between a small, dark-
colored Mazda 3 passenger vehicle and a dark-colored Ford F-250 pickup. Cooper was driving the truck.
Detectives are looking to speak to anyone who may have witnessed the driving behaviors of either vehicle prior to and up to the point of the collision, a sheriff ’s news release says.
The Arlington Times / The Marysville Globe8 November 7, 2015
Info sought about fatality
MARYSVILLE – A Town Hall meeting will take place Nov. 12 regarding a possible $212 million bond to pay for new schools in Marysville.
The Marysville School District is seeking pub-lic input on priorities on how to spend the money. Taxpayers would pay 88 cents per $1,000 valuation.
The meeting will take place at 6:30 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 12, in the board room at the Service Center, 4220 80th St. N.E. Priorities so far include replac-ing Liberty and Cascade elementary schools and Marysville Middle School. All of the schools would receive upgrades. The major debate seems to be between a complete replacement of Marysville-Pilchuck High School or upgrading that one and replacing Totem Middle School. The dis-trict also is obtaining public input online through msvl.thoughtexchange.com.
More than 600 took part in the first step of the dis-trict’s ThoughtExchange survey, sharing over 2,750 “thoughts” about different scenarios presented. That helped set the priorities.
The second step in the online process through Nov. 9 gives community mem-bers a variety of choices to make. Participants can read a subset of thoughts contributed by others and assign stars to the thoughts they value. People can com-plete that survey even if they weren’t among the 600 in the initial process.

BY KIRK [email protected]
ARLINGTON — The owner of Blaze the dog threatened to fight back if the city attempts to charge him with violating recently passed animal care laws.
On Nov. 2, Kari Ilonummi presented the Arlington City Council and various
city staff with copies of a handwritten note from Dr. Tim Cavanagh, director of All Creatures Veterinary Services in Arlington.
The letter, dated Oct. 27, explained that Cavanagh had cleared up Blaze’s infec-tion, but is still treating him for Sarcoptic Mange, a dis-ease that’s highly contagious between dogs, and caused by mites burrowing into the skin, causing the animal’s hair to fall out and creating a persistent itch.
As such, Cavanagh insist-ed that Blaze “temporarily needs his collar to prevent self-mutilation” until his skin condition clears.
When asked how long that might be, Cavanagh declined to offer specif-ics, but did note that he would be rechecking Blaze in about three weeks.
“Obviously, the end game is to get the collar off him,” Cavanagh said. “This case has gone on a long time, but chronic disease can
take a long time to clear up. Believe me, I’m as frustrated as anybody right now.”
In the event that Cavanagh is unable to resolve the matter, he said he’d probably refer Blaze to a dermatologist.
In the meantime, Ilonummi claimed to have received a visit from Officer Val Copeland two weeks prior, ordering him to remove Blaze’s collar.
“I took that cone off, we stood back about ten feet, and he went to town on himself like a steak,” Ilonummi said, adding that Copeland ultimately instructed him to place the cone back on Blaze. “She told me to break the law, so if I receive a ticket for this,
I’m taking it to trial.”In a statement that was
called out twice for going beyond the two minutes allotted for public com-ment, Ilonummi claimed the city would look “very foolish” for adopting tighter restrictions on the tethering of animals in September, a move that he derided as “appeasing the masses” without considering the consequences. “I’ve tried to alleviate this situation, but I’m prepared to fight.”

oeing is coming up on a special year. In July, the company will be 100 years old. It’s a great success story, but Boeing didn’t do it alone. They’ve had incredible support from the com-
munity. It’s this special relationship between Boeing and its Puget Sound neighbors that will make its sec-ond century even better for the company and the com-munities where its employees live and work.
Boeing and Puget Sound have come far in their jour-ney together. Today, they’re major partners in interna-tional trade – with aerospace accounting for over half the state’s exports last year. Boeing is the largest single exporter in the U.S. – an important engine of the econo-my and a creator of jobs in the Puget Sound area.
Although Puget Sound is home to a number of major companies, Boeing remains the state’s largest private employer, with over 80,000 employees based here in Washington. In the past five years, Boeing and Ama-zon together accounted, directly or indirectly, for more than 40 percent of the jobs created in the Puget Sound region.
Commercial aviation is growing around the world, and Boeing’s success in global markets supports ris-ing production rates in Boeing factories around Puget Sound. At the same time, as Boeing increases its in-ternational growth, it is also providing support in Puget Sound communities where the majority of its employ-ees live.
Boeing support for Puget Sound communities
Boeing is an important presence in Washington state and in the lives of its residents, and has become a catalyst for positive change in millions of lives.
In 2014, Boeing, its employees and retirees gave more than $50 million to Washington state charities and nonprofit organizations. The continued growth in aviation means the Puget Sound region stands to re-ceive continued strong community support for health and human services, arts, environmental, culture and civic engagement.
Boeing employees are also playing a leadership role in supporting their communities where they live and work. Through the Employees Community Fund of Boeing Puget Sound, more than $9 million in financial assistance was provided to local nonprofits to boost education, human services and veterans support.
The company is also inspiring the next generation of Puget Sound leaders. More than 650 Everett middle school students have participated in Boeing programs focused on energy efficiency and renewable energy. Students are also learning about clean energy and en-ergy conservation due in part to a Boeing-funded sci-ence curriculum within the Everett School District.
Boeing partners with Everett Community College to train aviation mechanics, and has contributed more than $9 million to the United Way of Snohomish County and other organizations dedicated to service.
For the past five years, Boeing employees have vol-unteered to encourage recycling, employee engage-ment and community volunteering companywide. The Sustainables, a Green Team based in the Puget Sound, has completed about 80 site-based projects since 2010, contributing to a 74 percent increase in re-cycling and environmental education initiatives at the local sites.
Boeing also supports military personnel and fami-lies. The Employees Community Fund awarded a grant to USO Northwest to support the construction on a new USO Welcome Center at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, which will serve more than 10,000 military per-sonnel and their families each month.
Boeing is lead supporter for Rally Point 6, a nonprofit that helps veterans seeking employment, educational opportunities, assistance with benefits, housing or tran-sition advice. Since the center opened in March 2014, more than 1,750 military, veterans and their families have found support.
With Boeing winning in growing the aerospace mar-ketplace, Puget Sound residents will see a win of their own. As the state’s largest employer, Boeing has shown a commitment to giving time, talent and resources to build up the communities its employees call home.

China becoming powerful catalyst for Puget Sound economic growth
hina is projected to become the world’s largest commercial air-
plane market by 2030, creating opportu-nities worth billions for the Puget Sound region.
The country is already Washington’s largest trading partner, with nearly a quarter of all the state’s exports headed for Chinese markets. In 2014, more than $20.7 billion in goods were exported, in-cluding apples, cherries, hops and wine. Topping the export list is the aerospace industry and Boeing.
China’s rapidly growing aviation market plays a crucial role in Boeing’s current and future success, said Boe-ing Chairman Jim McNerney in a news release.
Boeing projects Chinese markets will need 6,330 new planes worth $950 bil-lion by 2034, making them the compa-ny’s largest potential customer.
While Boeing makes up more than 50 percent of the Chinese commercial airplane market, the company is in a stiff competition to win Chinese orders against European plane-maker Airbus.
The European company opened an airplane completion facility in Tianjin, near Beijing, in 2008 for the A320, and announced plans this summer to open a facility to finish interiors of the twin-aisle A330 in China. Boeing is leveling the
competition with its Sept. 23 announce-ment to open a similar facility in China.
The company’s 40-year business re-lationship with China, which helped de-velop its aviation industry, could give the Puget Sound region an added advan-tage to come out on top.
An investment treaty between China and the U.S. could provide a framework
for broader investment in U.S. and Chi-nese economies, according to previous reports.
Supporters say, if signed, an agree-ment with China would create “a powerful catalyst for more economic growth,” ac-cording to The Daily Herald. The agree-ment would open up more of its market to American companies, provide clearer rules for Chinese investment in the U.S. and create jobs on both sides. Nonethe-less, both sides have a long way to go in negotiating any investment agreement.
With Boeing’s announcement to build a China-based delivery center – the first of its kind outside the U.S. – job creation will be on the rise and employment on the 737 line in Washington will not be re-duced, according to a memo from Ray Conner, president and CEO of Boeing Commercial Airplanes. The deal an-nounced Sept. 23 also involves deliver-ing 300 Boeing jets worth $38 billion, nearly double last year’s record delivery of 155 airplanes to China.
Despite the competition and obsta-cles before them, Randy Tinseth, Boeing Commercial Airplanes’ vice president for marketing, said in a Sept. 16 Daily Herald report, that selling in the Chinese market depends on the same fundamen-tals as in others: relationships, patience and investment.
For Boeing, all three are covered.

onBoeing and China
Q: What is the most important thing people need to know about China and Boeing?
A: Boeing is competing hard to win sales in China because China will become the world’s largest airplane market in the coming years, and our success there is vital to Boeing pro-duction and employment in the Unit-ed States and Puget Sound. This year, Boeing will deliver about 25 percent of all the airplanes we pro-duce, including about one in three 737s built in Renton, to China. And, over the next 20 years, Boeing has forecast demand there for more than 6,300 new airplanes valued at near-ly $1 trillion. One reason why China’s airlines are growing so rapidly is that its middle class is as large as the en-tire U.S. population yet, on average, people in China travel on airplanes a tenth as often as Americans.
Q: The Chinese economy seems to be struggling. Could this hurt Chinese demand for orders from Boeing?
A: Our forecast for airplane de-mand accounts for fluctuation in markets over a 20-year period. We’re confident that China’s economy and aviation sector will continue to see strong growth over the long term.
Q: What are the factors that de-termine whether Boeing or your competitor sells more airplanes in China?
A: First and foremost, Boeing has to deliver the best and most fuel-efficient airplanes and services to support our customers’ business
plans. In addition, we must continue to grow our 40-year presence and collaboration with China’s aviation industry because this supports our sales opportunities, market access and long-term growth. This is not surprising: Just as Americans like to buy products made in the USA, China and other countries expect Boeing to partner with their industry and contribute to their economies.
Q: Why has Boeing decided to establish a 737 finishing and de-livery center in China?
A: China is the key international market for the 737: This year, Chi-nese carriers will take delivery of one out of every three 737s that our employees build in Renton. With this in mind, a 737 completion and deliv-ery center makes sense for several reasons: it serves Chinese custom-ers by bringing the 737 closer to home, it adds capacity that will en-able our planned production-rate increases in Boeing’s 737 factory in Renton, and it allows us to col-laborate with Chinese industry in a way that supports our access to the China market.
Q: Will this new facility in China cause layoffs in the Puget Sound?
A: No. This facility in China in-creases Boeing’s 737 production capacity and will not result in layoffs or reduce employment for the 737 program. In addition, significant 737 sales to Chinese customers com-bined with this new China-based facility will enable higher 737 pro-duction rates on the 737 program in coming years.
Airplane sales to China are vital to Boeing, its workforce and the region’s prosperity. Boeing has worked with Chinese aviation industry stakeholders - including customers, suppliers, government agencies and others - in mutually beneficial ways for more than 40 years.
Seattle-area heavyweights Boeing and Amazon generate 43% of new Puget Sound Jobs
Q&A
Boeing is a key driver of strong employment growth in the Seattle region over the past five years, according to a new economic study.
he Seattle metro area has experi-enced an impressive 15.5 percent
growth in employment since 2010, with 43 percent of jobs generated by two of the area’s largest employers: Boeing and Amazon, according to a Septem-ber report by the Seattle City Budget Office. In comparison, Washington State has seen 12.5 percent job growth and the U.S. overall 9.7 percent growth during that same time period.
Boeing and Amazon, both of which have had a long-established presence in the Puget Sound area (founded in 1916 and 1994 respectively), are re-
sponsible for the creation of high-skill, high-wage jobs with an average an-nual salary of $100,000 in Seattle and the surrounding areas. The economic robustness of these two major employ-ers over the past five years has been directly linked to the addition of thou-sands of other secondary and tertiary jobs, such as in construction, retail and service sectors, that, when combined, account for a substantial amount of job growth in the region. In light of this, en-suring Boeing and Amazon’s continued success will be a key factor in maintain-ing a healthy regional economy.

ike many Boeing people, 777/777X new hire mechanic Oleksandr
Shevchuk is passionate about air-planes. But what makes him – and 30 other recent hires – different is be-ing part of the inaugural class of high school and skill center graduates join-ing Boeing through a new accelerated hiring and training program.
“Making it to Boeing wasn’t easy,” Shevchuk said. “But as the saying goes, ‘hard work pays off,’ and I’m real excited to be here.”
During a high school career day and tour of the Sno-Isle Tech Skills Center in Everett, Shevchuk caught the aero-space bug. When he graduated in 2015 from high school in Edmonds, while also attending Sno-Isle Tech, he competed in the Washington state Skills USA Aircraft Mechanic Competi-tion and won. He finished top 10 nation-ally in the Skills USA competition.
This all from someone who spoke almost no English when he immigrated to America in 2008. He now speaks, reads and writes in Russian, Ukrainian and English.
He is currently pursing an Airframe and Powerplant (A&P) license and illus-trates the type of talent Boeing needs, Boeing leaders say.
“Today’s manufacturing tools and processes means our workforce must
continually learn and adapt to be suc-cessful,” said Walt Odisho, vice presi-dent of Manufacturing and Safety for Commercial Airplanes. “We can do a better job of attracting top talent and providing opportunities for current and new employees to develop the skills needed to succeed. If we do that, we can extend our reputation as a major hub for aerospace talent while provid-ing great jobs and careers.”
Record produc-tion levels coupled with worker retire-ments on the ho-rizon means Boe-ing expects to hire many more people for manufacturing jobs in Washing-ton state through the end of this de-cade. Boeing is also making invest-ments in advanced manufacturing that will transform the nature of manufac-turing jobs. Those
investments mean more preparation and training for current employees and future hires.
“We are working with our partners to help develop people with the skills needed by aerospace companies,” said Michelle Burreson, senior manager, Workforce Development & Integration at Commercial Airplanes. “By sharpen-ing existing academic partnerships and creating new ones, we can make sure the school curriculum matches the skill needs of employers. So far, we have partnerships with 29 high schools, skill
centers and community and technical colleges in specific skill areas to ensure new hires are career ready.”
Boeing recruiters also have acceler-ated their efforts at Puget Sound schools with strong aerospace programs. In addition to career fairs, information sessions and factory tours, job offers are now presented more quickly to qual-ified individuals. Once hired, employ-ees participate in a five-day enhanced orientation focused on quality and safety followed by hands-on training with Airplane Programs or Boeing Fabrica-tion. The second wave of more than 30 new hires from high schools and skills centers start the program this month.
“The goal of the Pierce Coun-ty Skills Center is to prepare stu-dents for high-wage, high-demand careers,” said Michelle Ledbetter, director, Pierce County Skills Center in Washington state. “Our aerospace manufacturing students are excited about the opportunity to start their ca-reers in manufacturing at Boeing. These are viable, well-paying jobs with great opportunities for professional develop-ment and advancement.”
Shevchuk echoed that senti-ment. “I’m looking forward to starting my Boeing career and taking on some new challenges. And, at some point, pursue a college degree on the company.”
Earlier this year Ray Conner, Commercial Airplanes president and CEO, spoke to more than 50 community college and high school educators about working together to build the future manufacturing workforce in the Puget Sound region.

Boeing taps into high school talent for manufacturing jobs
t’s a video message they will likely nev-er forget. Teenagers involved in more
than half-a-dozen, youth-focused orga-nizations in Washington state learned through a short video message that they’re among the recipients selected to join the Legion of Youth Powered by Boeing this year. The Legion of Youth is a unique community program created in 2014 to provide tickets to the National Football League’s Seattle Seahawks home games to community organiza-tions that serve young people through-out the U.S. Pacific Northwest.
The news was delivered in a video featuring Pete Carroll, Seahawks head coach, and Ray Conner, Boeing Com-
mercial Airplanes president and CEO. Empowering local young people is part of Boeing’s long-standing commitment to giving back to the communities where employees live and work.
“Legion of Youth Powered by Boeing is really a special way for us to recognize local students like you who are commit-ted to school, demonstrating leadership, are active in your local communities and are setting a great example for your peers,” Conner said in the video. “That’s why we’re so excited to let you know that the youth-focused organization you are part of has been selected as one of our 2015 Legion of Youth recipients.”
During each of the eight regular sea-son games at CenturyLink Field in Se-
attle, 25 young people each will receive four game tickets and the opportunity to meet a former Seahawks player. They also are given concession vouchers and a Legion of Youth Powered by Boeing sweatshirt while at the game.
“Legion of Youth is an outstanding program that recognizes students who make positive contributions in the class-room and in the community,” Seahawks President Peter McLoughlin said. “We are pleased to partner with Boeing to provide tickets for deserving youth to be among the 12s on game day at Centu-ryLink Field.”
The Seahawks and Boeing select the community groups that receive the tickets.

Boeing makes $15 million investment in STEM learning
oeing Commercial Airplanes Pres-ident and CEO Ray Conner an-
nounced that Boeing is providing $15 million to create the Boeing Academy for STEM (science, technology, engi-neering and math) Learning at the Mu-seum of Flight . An additional $15 million match was announced by the family of the late Bill Boeing Jr., son of the com-pany founder, bringing the total invest-ment in the museum to $30 million.
The academy being created with the company’s investment represents a vigorous, new STEM-focused edu-cation initiative that aims to double the number of students served by the mu-seum’s immersive programs over the next two years — particularly from com-munities under-represented in STEM fields — and connect them to fulfilling, in-demand careers.
Washington state leads the United States in creating STEM-related jobs, but, by 2017, an estimated 45,000 jobs requiring STEM education in Washing-ton will go unfilled because of a lack
of qualified candidates, according to Washington STEM, a nonprofit organi-zation advocating for increased invest-ment in STEM education.
“This academy will help close that gap, and we are confident the Museum of Flight is the perfect partner to help us expand the pipeline of diverse, talented young STEM professionals in Washing-ton and beyond,” Conner said. “Wheth-er they choose aerospace or not, we’re happy to provide the opportunity, ac-cess and education that will enable them to develop their talents and grow their skills.”
The Boeing Academy for STEM Learning at the Museum of Flight will significantly expand STEM opportuni-ties for Washington’s youths, company and museum officials said. The number of students served by the museum’s educational program is expected to double by 2017 and double again by 2019. Additionally, at least half of those students will be young women, stu-dents of color or economically disad-vantaged, which makes it possible for
young people across the spectrum of the community to develop their talents and share in the promise of a better fu-ture, officials said.
“It allows us to reach more kids, al-lows a lot more kids to be involved in programs that we’ve already done and allows us to expand the program dra-matically to reach underserved audi-ences,” said Doug King, CEO of the Museum of Flight, about Boeing’s in-vestment. “What we find in our immer-
sive programs at the high-school level is that two-thirds of those kids end up go-ing into STEM careers, and more than half of those are aerospace related.”
Meanwhile, June Boeing represent-ed her late husband, Bill Boeing Jr., in announcing the $15 million match.
“He cared so deeply about the edu-cational mission of the museum,” she said of her husband. “He would smile most brightly when in the midst of our eager young learners.”

Senior running back Tyler Courtney of Lakewood cuts through defenses with his powerful and sprint-like running ability.
BY BRANDON [email protected]
LAKEWOOD — Senior Tyler Courtney of Lakewood played his best game rushing for 182 yards and accounting for three touchdowns in the Cougars victory against Shorecrest 24-19 Nov. 3.
It was a 2A district play-in game, and now the Cougars will play unde-feated Squalicum Nov. 7 in Bellingham at 7 p.m. As a result, Courtney is the
Marysville Globe-Arlington Times Athlete of the Week.
The 6-foot, 190-pound running back credits the offensive line.
“I give all the props to my line,” Courtney said. “I run my hardest for them.”
Courtney’s offensive line was able to create cutback lanes, which he was able to hit, running through arm tackles. His longest TD was 62 yards, and he also caught a TD pass for 16 yards from sophomore quarterback
Austin Lane. He exceeded his previous
best of 150 yards against Cedar Park Christian Oct. 9.
Courtney has honed his “fluidity” as a running back such as waiting for lanes to develop and ball security, coach Dan Teeter said.
It also helps that he is fast — he’s on the 4x100 relay for the track team.
“He’s got sprinter speed, and he doesn’t go down eas-ily,” Teeter said.
Courtney likes to play
defense too. Playing outside linebacker, he recorded a sack in his recent game.
Above carrying the ball and “knocking the snot” out of opposing players, Courtney loves the team aspect of the game.
“All 11 of us are working
as one,” Courtney said. When he was young, his
dad wanted him to play, but he was too shy. But that changed in the sixth grade.
“Becoming a part of a team really brought me out to make new friends,” Courtney said. “It’s helped me be more outgoing. I’ll take challenges head on.”
A team captain, he is looked up to both on and off the field by teammates, Teeter said.
“He has been highly com-
mitted to the program,” Teeter said. “He puts his teammates first.”
Football has encouraged him to help his community as well, such as working and bringing an awareness to a local homeless shelter.
He wants to continue playing football at Eastern, University of Washington or Pacific Lutheran University.
“He can play football at some kind of level,” Teeter said. “But at what level has yet to be seen.”
Cougar back runs Lakewood into playoffs

of running backs Austin Honeycutt, Cole Semu and Justice Powell and quar-terback James Hinson, accounted for seven rush-ing TDs.
M-P’s senior quarterback Erik Lind was 9-for-16 pass-ing for 92 yards and two touchdowns. M-P finished its season 4-6.
MARYSVILLE — Marysville-Pilchuck’s Trina Davis and Hannah Taylor scored a goal apiece to advance the Tomahawks through the consola-tion match of the 3A dis-trict tournament over Meadowdale 2-1 Nov. 3. M-P will now play Glacier Peak Nov. 5.
If M-P wins, it will advance to play either Stanwood or Shorewood for third place Nov. 7. If they lose their season ends.
ARLINGTON — Arlington’s Olivia Larson scored two goals and team-mates McKenzie Buell and Danielle Baker tacked on a goal each to shut out Glacier Peak 4-0 Nov. 3. Goalie Kat Sanchez kept GP score-less. Arlington will now host Edmonds Woodway Nov. 7 for the district title. With the win, Arlington is already qualified for state, where it reached the quar-terfinals last year. Arlington is now 15-3.
SNOHOMISH — The Arlington High School
football team lost to Glacier Peak 29-19 in a 3A cross-over seeding game Oct. 30.
Arlington started hot with quarterback Andrew Kalahar connecting on a 79-yard touchdown pass to Donavan Sellgren, who had eight catches for 219 yards.
After two GP TDs, Arlington retaliated with a trick play which had Kalahar hand the ball to running back Devon Nutter, who then threw a 3-yard TD pass to Chase Marx.
Arlington had some chances to get ahead, but errors on offense, including a blocked field goal, stopped the Eagles.
Arlington wouldn’t get another touchdown near the end of the game, with Kalahar finding Wyatt Bass for a 3-yard TD.
Arlington hosted Bonney Lake Friday, Nov. 6, in the first game of the 3A district tournament.
The results were not available by press time.
The Lakewood Cougars beat Granite Falls 28-8 in a Cascade Conference 2A game. Tyler Courtney rushed for three TDs. They will host Shorecrest Tuesday, Nov. 3, in their first district game.
Collin Montez of Marysville Getchell rushed in four TDs to pave the way for a 31-14 victory over Mountlake Terrace. MG improved 3-6.
MG will play its next game against Kamiak Thursday, Nov. 12.
On Oct. 29, Marysville-Pilchuck gave up a lead over Edmonds-Woodway.
M-P led 25-13 in the fourth quarter, but Edmonds-Woodway caught fire scoring on a 1-yard run and then a 28-yard pass play.
M-P attempted a final drive but a fourth-down pass fell incomplete. M-P’s record fell to 4-5.
Robert Myles Jr. of Tulalip caught 13 passes for 152 yards and three touchdowns against Lummi Nation, but the Hawks still lost 67-28.
Still, they hosted Quilcene Friday, Nov. 6, at Quil Ceda Stadium in their first game of the 1B district tourna-ment. The results were not available by press time.

BY KIRK [email protected]
ARLINGTON — Public safe-ty director Bruce Stedman pre-sented Annie, a chocolate Lab who served as a narcotics dog for Arlington from 2008 until August, to the City Council Nov. 2, as the city welcomed the newest members of its pub-lic safety team, on two legs and four.
Annie was accompanied by Mike Gilbert, her former K-9 officer, as Stedman reported that she “is enjoying retire-ment, and is adjusting to home life and being an indoor family dog.”
Annie was retired due to changes in state drug laws with the legalization of marijuana.
Molly Ingram, who had also served as Annie’s former K-9
officer, then presented her new-est partner, a 2-year-old black Lab named Tara.
Stedman recounted how Ingram and Tara bonded after three weeks of Ingram training with four different dogs.
“They had a connection and make a wonderful team,” Stedman said. “Officer Ingram says Tara has a great tempera-ment and is a hard worker.”
Stedman explained that Ingram and Tara have con-ducted hundreds of hours of training together within five weeks, and are both certified with the Washington State Police Canine Association and the Washington State Criminal Justice Training Commission.

Peterson has been with the department as a part-time paid staff

ARLINGTON – Norm Ross of Arlington knows a lot about building hot rods. He’s been doing it for more than 25 years.
But as part of a recent nationwide competition, he had to build one in 30 days.
Rat Rod magazine chose Ross at random to be one of the competitors in its
annual Build-Up competi-tion. He had to take a pic-ture of the piled up parts he was going to use to prove he didn’t get a head start on building it.
Ross, 59, got help from his son, Travis, 38, and friend Stephen Kolbeck, working up to five hours evenings and all day Saturdays and Sundays to get it built.
Ross said he got into the sport because hot rods are “fast, loud and cool.” He started building hot rods with Travis when he was 8.
“But like any kid he loved it for a while then got over it,” Ross said.
Travis picked it up again in high school when they started building race cars together. Ross’s grandson, Tyler York, 16, has taken it up, too. “It’s a three-genera-tion thing,” Ross said.
It’s been good for them, he said. “It gets them away from (video) gaming and all that, and gets them out in the garage and building stuff,” Ross said. They know what they are doing.
“We can work all day and not say two words to each other,” he said.
Part of the fun of building hot rods is finding parts. Ross said they go as far away as California to swap meets.
“Parts are a little rusty around here,” he said of the Northwest.
In the Rat Rod competi-tion, the trio took the vehi-cle by trailer to Grafton, Ill., where it was part of a major car show. The next day they drove across a bridge over the Mississippi River with a police escort to St. Louis, Mo. “It was a super cool parade of hot rods,” Ross said. He said unlike some car enthusiasts, his team does not have a win-at-all-cost mentality. Just the opposite is true.
“We’ll even part out our own car to help anybody,” he said. In this competition, they helped another driver who had a car that wasn’t running. “He drove it to St. Louis the next day and even won an award,” Ross said, adding that the truck driv-er-owner was thrilled about that. “It’s fun. We like doing what we do.”
Ross’s team also won an award called the Road Warrior for being the most road-worthy vehicle in the competition. “We don’t just go to car shows,” he said. “We use our cars.”
Ross, who owns Norm’s F100 Parts and Service in Arlington, said the Rat Rod Build-Up was a once-in-a-lifetime experience, but he’s not done. “I want to build another hot rod,” he said.

Among the superheroes, princesses, action figures, video game characters and horror movie villains to descend on Third Street in Marysville Oct. 31, there was only one Jake from State Farm.
“They’ve been calling me Jake from State Farm at school for years,” said 13-year-old Jack Sulya, clad in a red polo shirt, name tag and, of course, khakis. “So I decided to make it my costume.”
Jack was one of about 300 kids who attended the annu-al hourlong event despite light rain, Hilton Pharmacy owner Mary Kirkland esti-mated. Her staff dressed as clowns, except for Kassidi Neal, who was Elsa from “Frozen.” “They would yell, ‘Elsa,’ as they walked in, and then want pictures.”
Bryan Fosmark and his family had never gone trick-or-treating on Third Street before. “It’s much better
than going out in the neigh-borhoods, where they can be out for so long,” Fosmark said. “This way, you get the kids through quick, and they don’t need to get as much candy.”
Quincy Bontrager has been taking his family trick-or-treating on Third Street for five years, and the fresh-baked goods at Oosterwyk’s Dutch Bakery remain their favorite treats.
“It’s fun, and safe, and the kids enjoy it,” Bontrager said, as his 5-year-old son Jesse contemplated whether to lift his Spider-Man mask
to bite into his maple bar. “Plus, where else are you going to get handmade cookies?”
It was raining harder ear-
lier that day in Arlington, but the downtown trick or treating, the pumpkin roll and pumpkin-carving con-tests were still popular.
