MARYSVILLE — Spencer Norton isn’t even a year old yet, and he’s already been fighting for his life.

The infant was born to Amy and Scott Norton of Marysville on Nov. 8 of last year, and while other local families were celebrating the Seahawks heading to the Super Bowl, Spencer was heading to Seattle Children’s Hospital due to a trio of undiagnosed congenital heart defects — transposi-tion of the two great arteries of the heart, coarctation of the aorta and ventricle septal defect — that are referred to as Tausig–Bing syndrome in the extremely rare instances when all three occur togeth-er.

“Because his two great arteries were transposed, they were pumping un-oxygenated blood into his body,” Amy Norton said. “The only reason he sur-vived was because he also had that ventricle septal defect, which was basically a large hole next to his aorta, that allowed his oxygenated and un-oxygenated blood to mix.”

The Nortons had taken all the prescribed steps for car-rying, delivering and caring for Spencer, who appeared perfectly healthy and dis-played normal growth pat-terns for the first couple of months of his life. Although Spencer began experiencing some congestion, it seemed to Amy and Scott as though

TULALIP — Shoring up the struggling students of the Marysville School District was a recurring theme among the many and varied subjects discussed during the Monday, Feb. 24, joint meet-ing of the respective boards of directors of the Marysville School District and the Tulalip Tribes.

Marysville School Board Vice President Chris Nation touted incoming interim spe-cial education services direc-tors Dave Gow and Dr. Bob Gose as experienced profes-

sionals who have successfully turned around other school districts’ special education programs.

“I don’t know how much they’ll be able to fix in six months, but they can develop the department so that pieces will be in place for our new permanent directors,” Nation said.

“We’re also elevating those positions to executive direc-tors, so they’ll be part of the district’s cabinet,” MSD Superintendent Dr. Becky Berg said.

“Our concern is, what can we be doing to offer more

services to these students?” Tulalip Tribal Board Chair Mel Sheldon Jr. asked.

“The systems we had in place were not making effec-tive use of all of our partner-ships,” Nation said.

Berg’s coffees with com-munity members were cited by members of both boards as a successful venue for allow-ing parents to discuss their concerns in a more informal setting.

MSD Assistant Superintendent Ray Houser followed this conversation

by reporting that Quil Ceda/Tulalip Elementary has been designated as a Required Action District by the state Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction.

“As hard as those students have worked, because of where they began, they’re still not at standard,” said Houser, who pointed out the silver lining of continued resources for the school, whose school improvement grants are set to wrap up. “We’re moving from federal to state money.”

Houser and Berg reassured those in attendance that the school staff who guided the students through such signif-icant growth in recent years would not be the subject of turnovers.

“This allows us to build on our successes,” Berg said of the RAD designation.

Anthony Craig and Kristin DeWitte, co-prin-cipals of Quil Ceda/Tulalip Elementary, identified the merged school’s three focus points as academics, behavior and cultural heritage.

“A lot of schools that were recipients of those improve-ment grants came up with strategies to bump up their scores in the short term, and we could have done the same,” Craig said. “The prob-lem would have been that we wouldn’t have had any real reforms after the money went away in three years.”

“What role can the parents play in all of this?” Sheldon asked.

“We’re looking at a lot more family engagement,” Craig said. “A lot of our par-ent/teacher conferences have 100 percent attendance now. That’s what it means to own a school. We want our students to be able to tell their par-ents about their own positive experiences at school, and about how someone believes in them.”

he’d simply come down with a common cold, and after following a few recom-mended home remedies, they took him to the family doctor who told the family that Spencer’s condition was normal and probably just a viral infection.

On the Sunday of the Seahawks’ play-off game, a family friend who was cel-ebrating with the Nortons noticed that Spencer’s face had an ash-blue color.

Although this quickly dis-sipated, the next morning, Amy picked Spencer up from his bed and noticed that he had a purple ring lin-ing his lips, and that his nail beds were purple in color.

“I started making calls to local clinics, describing his symptoms, and when I spoke with Seattle Children’s they told me to call 911,” Amy Norton said. “Spencer was only getting something like 70 percent of his oxygen.”

Spencer’s surgery was delayed by him actually contracting a common cold, which dropped his oxygen

levels down to as low as 10 percent to 30 percent.

“They had to put him in an artificial lung machine,” said Amy Norton, who camped out with Scott and their daughter Olivia in the Ronald McDonald House in Seattle to be close to Spencer, who spent 20 days in the Cardiac Intensive Care Unit of Seattle Children’s Hospital. “Olivia held his baby brother for the first time just a few days ago, and said, ‘We’re an adventure team.’”

Even after his surgery, Spencer remains at the hos-pital, and is facing many more gauntlets of medical care to come.

“We have to wean him off morphine and other drugs, at the same time that he has to keep taking medicine because he had too much blood-flow into his lungs, which was making them tight,” Amy Norton said. “He could have lifelong pulmo-nary hypertension. He has a Gore-Tex patch on the hole in his heart, and his arter-ies have been rerouted, but doing that can cause kinks, which might eventually stop his oxygen flow altogether and lead to a heart attack.”

According to Amy, Spencer’s surgeons rated the difficulty of his opera-tion as an 8 out of 10. In spite of spending most of his third and fourth months

of life hooked up to lifesav-ing machines, and receiv-ing doses of various medi-cations, he’s remained an upbeat infant.

“Spencer has shown us how strong he is,” Amy Norton said. “He is the hap-piest little baby I’ve ever known. He still smiles in circumstances when most adults wouldn’t even want to open their eyes.”

While Amy considers Spencer himself to be the greatest gift that she and Scott could have received, she did not discount the many generous gifts that her family has received from the surrounding community.

“We have been so hum-bled by all of the people we don’t even know, who have given us food and donat-ed money,” said Amy, who works as a teacher at the Marysville School District, while Scott works for King County Metro. “It’s been a phenomenal experience. We don’t even have a clue what all of this will cost yet. We’re not even in a place where we can do that math. We’re just trying to get Spencer home.”

Seattle Optometrist Helps LEGALLY BLIND to See!

Patient Driving with Bioptic Telescopic Glasses

Just because you have macular degeneration (or other vision-limiting conditions) doesn’t always mean you must give up driving or reading. A Seattle optometrist, Dr. Ross Cusic, is using miniaturized binoculars or telescopes to help people who have lost vision from macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy or other eye conditions. “Our job is to figure out everything and anything possible to keep a person functioning,” says Dr. Cusic. “Whether it’s driving, reading, TV, seeing faces, check writing, bingo or bridge. We work with whatever is on the person’s ‘wish list.’”

With interest-free payment options this technology is now more affordable than ever. “Definitely worth the $2150 cost. I should have come sooner,” said Dr. Cusic’s patient. For more information and a FREE telephone consultation, Call Today: 877-823-2020

LAKEWOOD — Lakewood High School’s spring play is set to be its most ambitious production yet, as its small stage accom-modates more than 30 char-acters, and more than 20 set changes, to present “Alice in Wonderland” at 7 p.m. on the Fridays and Saturdays of March 7, 8, 14 and 15, with an additional 3 p.m. mati-nee showing on Saturday, March 8.

LHS freshman Christine Lew was credited by cast members with making everything fit in her role as stage manager, while LHS drama teacher Rebecca White noted that both the stage crew and the cast are more populated than they’ve ever been during her tenure of directing school plays.

“I didn’t have a lot of experience, but I made the best of what we had,” Lew said. “With the scene chang-es, I wanted the mood of each scene to be different.”

“We have a lot of new stu-dents this time around, but they’re good kids, reliable and pleasant,” White said. “I can’t take credit for this, because it’s a team effort.”

LHS senior Michaela Boyd has been spending more time around younger children, to

pick up on their mannerisms so she can play young Alice more effectively, while fel-low senior Kiana Smith, who also plays a sheep and one of the cards, has researched other productions of “Alice in Wonderland” for guid-ance on how to play the Caterpillar.

“He’s high and mighty, and acts like he knows what he’s talking about,” said Smith, who will blow bubbles rather than using a hookah for the role.

“I play the White Queen as a hot mess who’s really out there,” LHS junior Riley Miller said. “I’ve never done crazy like this before.”

LHS senior Kayla Cundy, who plays the Mad Hatter, admitted that she will miss the family feel of such school productions when she begins attending the Juilliard School in the fall.

“This is the best play we’ve ever done,” said Cundy, who’s performed in LHS plays since she was a sopho-

more. “Besides, everyone loves ‘Alice in Wonderland.’”

Boyd and Lew agreed that the cast and crew’s hard work will be evident throughout, while Miller said, “It’s like nothing you’ve seen before.”

Admission is $5 for seniors, children younger than 10 or those with ASB, and $7 for everyone else.


LAKEWOOD — The Lakewood School District is tantalizingly close to meet-ing the required superma-jority to pass its building bond, but unless the next set of election results shows the approval side gaining at least 32 votes, it won’t be close enough.

“To be that close and not make it would certainly be beyond disappointing, that’s for sure,” said Fred Owyen, whom the Lakewood School District has contracted as its capital project manager. “The supermajority is a tall hurdle, though.”

As of 3:29 p.m. on Monday, Feb. 24, the Lakewood School District’s Proposition 1, for the bond to renovate Lakewood High School, has received 1,732 “Approved” votes, or 58.93 percent of the vote, and 1,207 “Rejected” votes, or 41.07 percent of the vote.

Owyen explained that, if the bond does not pass, the Lakewood School District Board of Directors will like-ly decide its next course of action during its meeting at 6 p.m. on Wednesday, March 5, in Room 209 at English Crossing Elementary.

“They may consider put-

ting the same bond on the April 22 special election bal-lot unchanged, if the margin is close enough, because the need for a new high school will not have changed,” Owyen said. “They’re also reviewing the tax rate assumptions, looking at the most recent assessed values, so they can offer a revised cost-per-thousand estimate if this goes back on the bal-lot for April, because that financial picture will have changed over time.”

Regardless of the ultimate outcome of this election, Owyen thanked all those voters — significantly more than a majority, even if they might have fallen short of a supermajority — who supported the Lakewood School District’s bond to renovate Lakewood High School.

“We’ve been very for-tunate in the amount of approval votes that we have received,” Owyen said. “It’s just so maddening to be so close. We definitely know we still need to improve the high school, so the next step on our quest will depend on the results of this elec-tion, and on what direction the Lakewood School Board chooses to take if it’s not approved this time.”

Joan, the daughter of William and Ellen (Howie) Erpenbach was born August 3, 1934 in Albert Lea, MN. She entered the F r a n c i s c a n Order in 1954 and was trained as an RN. She served as a nurse in Portsmouth, OH and at St. Theresa’s College in Winona, MN. Joan relocated to the west coast and finally settled in Marysville. She drove the bus for the City of Everett. She probably ministered to more people in that capacity than as a nurse. Joan was very active in the church, especially as a Eucharistic Minister to the home bound.

Joan is survived by

her brother, D e a c o n W i l l i a m Erpenbach of Faribault, MN, nieces and nephews; Joan E. Erpenbach, M i c h a e l E r p enba ch,

Peter Erpenbach, Robert Erpenbach and Teresa (Erpenbach) Rosenthal all of MN. Joan is also survived by special friends of many years, Doug and Holly Miller, their daughters Becky and Ellie and families. Joan was preceded in death by her parents and sister-in-law, Mary Erpenbach.

Mass and memorial was held on March 1st at St. Mary’s Catholic Church, Marysville.

Little Costa Rica has been judged to be the world’s happiest place, based on average levels of health, satisfaction with life and

devotion to preservation and sustainable devel-opment. The most foreign thing about Costa Rica is that the bottom-line doesn’t dictate values as it does here. When major decisions are to be made, they’re decided on the basis of whether they’re good for people and the environment.

After a life of travel to out-of-the-way places, my wife and I finally decided to abandon do-it-yourself travel planning use a travel service. We decided only where to go and how long to stay and let the pros at Pacific Tradewinds handle bookings and make sure of connections in between. After so many years of dealing with unforeseen travel glitches, Costa Rica was to be the least stressful of our adventures — except for the air travel.

Airlines keep inventing snarky schemes for squeezing more dollars from travelers. Their latest trick keeps budget travelers from reserv-ing seats other than First-Class or Economy Plus. First-Class is out of our price range and Economy Plus costs $19 for four extra inches of leg room. The remaining 80 percent of the seats can’t be reserved until the day of the flight — and the airline adds that the flight will be over-booked which panics travelers who can’t deal with uncertainty into buying expensive seats.

With layovers in Portland and Houston, the trip took 14 hours, three hours for passengers boarding in Houston who were surprised to learn that they’d paid $12 more per ticket than we did. Another consolation was that travel-ers over the age of 75 no longer have to remove

shoes during security screen-ing.

All credit for a happy time goes to Costa Rica. With a population no larger than Houston-Dallas, it lies sandwiched between Nicaragua and Panama. Depending on the season, Costa Rica is washed by breezes from the Pacific or Atlantic. Mountain ranges catch precipitation that makes everything includ-ing fence-posts grow. Yes, fence posts. Farmers simply stick rows of cuttings into the ground and, after a short wait, tie-off barbed wire to the leafed-out sticks.

The fences are symbolic of the nation’s atti-tude toward nature. Costa Rica is bursting with wildlife, housing 20 percent of the wildlife spe-cies of the world. While Costa Rica compares with Switzerland in area, it took a radically different route toward development, honoring nature over development. With a per capita income only a fraction of the Swiss, Costa Rica has achieved goals that no other nation comes close to matching:

It planted enough trees to increase forested areas by 20 percent, allowing the return of wild-life that had disappeared decades ago.

A quarter of the country is set aside as nation-al parks and refuges.

By 2021, Costa Rica will be the planet’s only carbon-neutral country.

It has the largest green sea turtle preserve on the Caribbean coast and the world’s largest Ridley sea turtle preserve on the Pacific.

Costa Rica is one of the most stable countries in the Western Hemisphere, drawing tourists from around the world.

Costa Rica can supply social services because it supports no armed forces.

These priorities helped to earn Costa Rica’s a rating as the world’s most happy nation. After spending two pre-Christmas weeks there we tend to agree. Smiles and greetings were open and relaxed, putting us at ease for our entire stay.

Personal economics are clearly different. One resort hotel manager said he makes about $1,200 per month while his wife brings in another $1,000 per month. He said they lived quite well compared to average earners who take home 68.4 percent of his executive pay. Everyone’s medical is covered.

Unemployment of 15 percent to 20 percent still plagues the economy and a federal safety-net that supports the unemployed imposes a troublesome drain on the national budget. Part of the problem stems from a constant flood of Nicaraguans crossing into the nation to illegally harvest trees or clear-cut patches for farming. And there was the recent flap when Nicaraguan engineers used a faulty Google map to guide dredging in the border’s San Juan River. These are small down-sides for what is otherwise para-dise.

American ex-patriots are buying in. A modest home (think clotheslines, not driers) runs about $500 per month. Expect to pay a total of $1,500 a month for living costs without a car. Double that for top-tier luxury living. A big draw is that Costa Rica offers a safer environment than any other Latin American nation. Another is the unfailing friendliness of Ticos — a nickname nationals have adopted.

Visitors learn to give and get smiles along with the normal greeting of, “Pura vida,” or pure life. Costa Ricans (Ticos) mean it. They live

MARYSVILLE — When Arlington landscaper Joel Martinez woke up to find his livelihood sto-len, Pilchuck Rentals of Marysville stepped in to help out a fellow local busi-ness and a loyal customer.

Martinez, who ran First

Choice Landscaping out of his trailer, finished work at 1 a.m. on Friday, Feb. 21, and woke up at 6:30 a.m. to find his equipment trailer had been stolen from his driveway.

“All my equipment was in that trailer,” Martinez said. “I’d locked it up, and secured it with lights and dogs. My father-in-law had

lent me that trailer, so insur-ance probably won’t even cover that. That’s what he gets, for giving me so much.”

The trailer full of resi-dential and commercial landscaping equipment represented Martinez’s life savings, an investment of roughly $10,000 over the course of the past eight years. Worse yet, his next

scheduled job was on Monday, Feb. 24.

Martinez found that he was far from alone during his time of need, though. Not only did the Arlington-Smokey Point Chamber of Commerce use its social media channels to send out word of the theft that he’d suffered — along with a list-ing of some of the items that he’d lost, that Chamber members were advised to keep an eye out for — but Martinez also received a loan of a Honda commer-cial lawnmower and a Stihl backpack leaf-blower from Lance Brown, of Pilchuck Rentals and Sound Power Equipment Sales.

“Lance used to be my landlord, and I’ve always bought my equipment from him,” Martinez said. “He told me not to worry about the cost, and to come pay him when I had the money. It’s nice to know that there are still some good people

in the world.”“We’re just sponsoring

him for a couple of months, so he can get back on his

feet and get his work done,” said Brown, who noted that local landscapers’ season has started early this year. “Joel has been a loyal cus-tomer since day one, and he’s a community asset, so by making sure he’s covered, what goes around can come around. It’s all about com-munity spirit and helping people stay employed.”

“I don’t know what I would have done without Lance’s help,” Martinez said. “When things like this hap-pen, you can either quit or keep going, and I’ve got too much invested to stop now.”


Pilchuck Rentals helps Arlington landscaper recover from theft


Lance Brown, of Pilchuck Rentals and Sound Power Equipment Sales in Marysville, loaned a Honda commercial lawnmower and a Stihl backpack leaf-blower to Joel Martinez, of First Choice Landscaping in Arlington, after all of Martinez’s land-scaping equipment was stolen.

MARYSVILLE — The city of Marysville’s Transportation Benefit District Board met on Monday, Feb. 24, to review a num-

ber of potential projects.If voters approve an 0.02 per-

cent sales tax increase on the April 22 special election ballot, the TBD would be able to gener-ate an estimated $1.6 million per

year, over the course of 10 years, to be divided between pavement preservation and capital improve-ment transportation projects of the Board’s preference.

Assistant City Engineer John

Cowling noted that this TBD tax rate is comparable to that of many other jurisdictions through-out Washington state in 2011 and 2012. He further estimated that pavement preservation alone for

Marysville would probably cost $800,000 per year for 10 years, even as he warned against budget-ing to spend every penny, given that costs of construction increase over time.

MARYSVILLE — The Marysville-Pilchuck wres-tling team had two wres-tlers place in the 3A State Tournament at the Tacoma Dome on Feb. 21-22.

M-P took seven wrestlers to the Dome on Feb. 21, with two of those wrestlers placing quite high in the state.

Junior Killian Page placed second after he lost to the State Champion. “He was second last year,” head coach Craig Iversen said. “We were really proud of his effort.”

Killian’s second-place finish came by way of a 6-5 decision over Liberty’s junior Conner Small in the 160-pound weight class.

M-P junior Drew Hatch placed third in State. “He lost his second match, but came back and beat that wrestler,” Iversen said.

Hatch placed third when he defeated Enumclaw senior Sean Wei in the 170-pound weight class. Hatch

won by a 6-1 decision. Hatch wasn’t feeling 100

percent during his time at the State meet. “He had a cold,” Iversen said. “He was kind of low on energy.”

With the juniors coming back next season, Iversen said they will benefit the team tremendously. “We are very excited about their leadership,” Iversen said.

It was long, tough road for M-P’s wrestling sea-son, up until Feb. 22, but Iversen was pleased that his wrestlers turned on at the crucial part of the season.

“We were coming on at the end,” Iversen said. “Next season, we’re trying to aim for State.”

Iversen said State experi-ence for the young wres-tlers will pay off into next season.

“Of that crew, we had only one senior,” Iversen said. “So hopefully that’s good experience.”

M-P junior Ryan Daurie didn’t place, but had a good match during the tourna-ment. In the 132-pound

weight class, Daurie defeat-ed Prairie sophomore Peter Mattson 11-2.

With M-P’s 2014 wres-tling season coming to an

end, Iversen was more than pleased with the outcome.

“We ended on a positive note, and that’s what we hoped for,” Iversen said.

The five other wres-tlers who participated at the State Tournament, but didn’t place, were 152-pound freshman

Keith Pablo, 220-pound freshman Austin Brown, 182-pound junior Ilya Nikitenko and 145-pound senior Jose Villagomez.

MARYSVILLE — Lakewood High School wrestlers made it the 2A State Tournament on Feb. 21-22, and two wrestlers placed.

“We came in with high expectations, but didn’t quite materialize as we were hoping,” Lakewood head coach Tom O’Hara said. “But they had a lot of heart and placed high.”

The Cougars brought nine wrestlers to the

Tacoma Dome, including four girls and five boys, on Feb. 21.

Only three of the wres-tlers advanced to the semi-finals on Feb. 22. Though the other seven wrestlers didn’t make the cut for finals, O’Hara was still

pleased with how his wres-tlers performed overall.

It was the most wrestlers a school has brought over to the Tacoma Dome, accord-ing to O’Hara, an achieve-ment he is very proud of.

“We got nine kids to come to the State Tournament,” he said. “I think we did well.”

Senior Jeff Harrison was one of the two who made it to the semi-finals. Harrison placed eighth in State in the 182-pound weight class.

Harrison performed well on Feb. 22, but was stopped by a wrestler who became State Champion. “Jeff had some great matches,” O’Hara said. “He wres-tled the soon-to-be State Champion better than his other matches.”

Harrison battled his way through Feb. 21, but his effort on Feb. 21 didn’t translate to Feb. 22.

“He forgot to show up, and he wasn’t prepared mentally and physically,” O’Hara said. “He beat the kid easily the week before.”

Harrison wrestled well indeed, but O’Hara was most impressed with the wrestler’s attitude after the loss.

“He came out to me and said ‘Coach, he was just better than me,’ and that showed me how much he has matured as human being,” O’Hara said.

Junior Gage Gilbertson, in the 160-pound weight class, was the second Cougar to place at the State Tournament. “He wasn’t even supposed to place,” O’Hara said. “He lost three matches — two at the State Tournament.”

O’Hara said Gilbertson was three points away from placing in the top five.

Gilbertson wrestled well and O’Hara appreciated the fighting spirit of the senior. “Mentally he is the ideal person to go out on the mat,” O’Hara said. “He doesn’t worry about who the other guy is. He just goes out and wrestles.”

The seven other wrestlers

didn’t place, but wrestled well according to O’Hara.

It was rough day, unfor-tunately, for senior Drake Mosteller, who was pinned and lost two matches in a row in the 182-pound weight class on Feb. 21.

“He was under too much pressure,” O’Hara said.

The other two boys brought to the State Tournament were 285-pound seniors Tristan Nelson and Deven Jackson.

O’Hara was also pleased with the girls’ performanc-es during the tournament.

“The girls wrestled well, but they didn’t make it,” O’Hara said.

One of those girl wres-tlers was junior Katie Kortekaas, who lost in tri-ple overtime on Feb. 21. “That was a heartbreaker,” O’Hara said.

The other three girls wrestlers were 106-pound sophomores Alexis Perry and Tommie Mosteller, and 137-pound sophomore Makayla Jackson.

Patti Buchanan wrote the grant application for herself

and her fellow LMS sixth-grade STEM teacher, Ron Detrick, to purchase a wind experiment kit, with which their students will learn how to maximize the power out-put of wind turbines to har-ness wind energy.

Buchanan noted that the PUD grant covered $500, while the school kicked in the remaining $80, and praised kit supplier KidWind for providing the materi-als and making them more affordable.

“They gave us a great deal,” said Buchanan, who added that the benefits will be shared between her and Detrick’s classes of rough-ly 30 students each. “So many other schools went for solar kits, but since our high school already has a solar unit, we went for wind instead.”

Buchanan also appre-ciated that the wind kits offered more opportunities for experimentation than the solar kits that she tested.

“I purchased one of the solar kits myself, and it wasn’t as big of a ‘wow,’” Buchanan said. “The prob-lem is that the solar panels

come already made, which limits the kids’ exploration of the scientific method and engineering design. With the wind kits, you’ve got the added variables of the num-bers, shapes and speeds of the wind blades, so you can spend more time on the pro-cess.”

Buchanan looks forward to seeing her and Detrick’s students collaborating on not only designing and building, but also testing and improving their wind power models, especially since the versatility of the kits allows multiple groups of students to conduct completely dif-ferent experiments with the

same materials.“We’re so spoiled with all

the hydroelectric power that we have here in Washington, but there are still plenty of areas in the state that could use wind power as well,” Buchanan said. “It won’t replace hydroelectric, but wind can be used in targeted

ways.”Buchanan believes this

project will ultimately serve as a springboard to enhance students’ understanding of not only electrical energy and engineering, but also the impacts of such power sources on wildlife and the environment.


MARYSVILLE — Marysville Getchell boys swimmers weren’t able to qualify for the Finals dur-ing the State Meet at King County Aquatics Center in Federal Way on Feb. 21-22.

Though no one placed at State, MG still had a strong performance on Feb. 21 dur-ing the preliminaries. “Friday went pretty well, consider-ing we are a fairly young team without a lot of State experience,” MG head coach Meredith Jenks said.

On Feb. 21, sophomore Connor DeMarco finished 23rd overall in the 100-yard freestyle.

DeMarco had a strong swim, but wasn’t able to equal his best time he made earlier in the season. “DeMarco had a 52.55, which isn’t too far off his best time this season of 51.74 seconds,” Jenks said.

The 200-yard Relay also had the same problem, in that the swimmers missed their best time by half a second.

The swimmers in the relay completed with a time of 1:38.24 seconds and placed 22nd overall.

Jenks said that it was fatigue that affected the swimmers’ performance.

“We had to really focus on swimming well at Districts in order to get to the State meet,” she said. “So we were a little spent and tired by the time we got to State.”

There were best times clocked in during the relay by freshman Nathaniel Ludwig, who finished at 24.71 sec-onds, and senior Taylor Dalton, with a time of 24.92 seconds.

“The boys went after their respective events as hard as they could,” Jenks said. “I think they still performed quite respectably.

In the dives, sopho-more Tyler Dukleth made it through the preliminary rounds, and sophomore Luis Pineda made it through the

semi-finals and was just 12 points shy from qualifying for finals. Dukleth placed 23rd and Pineda placed 19th over-all.

“As for our divers, again, being a young and inexperi-enced group, they did very well,” Jenks said.

Though it may have been a disappointment for not advancing swimmers to the State Finals, Jenks is look-ing forward for the returning swimmers next season.

“I’m looking forward to this season’s large number of freshmen and sophomores returning with some excite-ment to make it further along than they did this year,” Jenks said.

Jenks coached both MG and Marysville-Pilchuck boys swimming teams throughout season. M-P did not have swimmers qualify for State. “We did a great job working together as a team and sup-porting each other the entire season,” Jenks said.

MARYSVILLE — Honda of Marysville drew digni-taries from throughout the Marysville and Arlington business communities to its official grand opening ribbon-cutting ceremony on Wednesday, Feb. 26.

While the showroom is a standard feature of any car dealership, Marysville Honda General Manager Pete Smith noted that one aspect which sets his store apart from others is that most of his business is con-ducted on the showroom floor itself.

“Even the offices lining the showroom all have glass windows instead of walls, so there’s nothing to hide,” Smith said. “We’re literally as transparent as possible. You get the price right up front. It’s a model whose appeal has been proven.”

Even the delivery center

adjoining the showroom floor is entirely glass-walled, so that customers can become acclimated to their new cars in an enclosed and heated space, even in the midst of snow and rain out-side.

“We’re starting with 35 employees, but we expect to grow that number very quickly,” Smith said.

The large open spaces of the Honda of Marysville dealership include expan-sive waiting areas for adults and children alike, the lat-ter with their own toys, but both equipped with large TV screens. Vending machines are placed in a well-stocked coffee room adjacent to the waiting areas, while the dealership’s parts boutique can be found just down the hall, although Smith admitted that the shelves of the latter are still being filled.

“In the service area, when

you drive in over the ramp, it tells you how your tires are wearing, by measuring their tread depth and align-ment,” Smith said. “We did a soft open of the service area on Feb. 15, just to make sure everything was work-ing properly. Our goal is to make our technicians more efficient, so that you can

spend less time here. It’s all part of our guest advocacy policy, which is to meet your needs and budget.”

The service area alone takes up close to 18,000 of the dealership’s estimated 42,000 square feet of space, and will be complemented by a detailing shop that will serve non-Honda automo-biles as well.

“This is a phenomenal facility,” Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring said. “I hope this area can become an auto row in the future. The technology is state-of-the-art, and the folks here have already shown their heart for the community, by donating to groups like the Marysville Community Food Bank.”

Honda of Marysville is located at 15714 Smokey Point Boulevard.

ARLINGTON — The Arlington American Legion Post 76 family will be col-lecting non-perishable food and snacks, as well as hygiene and other per-sonal items, at Legion Park in downtown Arlington, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday, March 8, for American troops serving in Afghanistan.

Those who don’t want to wait can drop off their dona-tions, not only at Arlington American Legion Post 76 at 115 N. Olympic Ave., but also at Britt Sport Cards at 332 N. Olympic Ave.

“I served in our armed forces during peacetime, so I can’t compare my ser-vice to the sacrifices our soldiers make every day by serving in war zones,” said Mike Britt, owner of Britt Sport Cards. “What I do know is that simple gifts reconnected me with home, while I was separated from my family and friends. Can you imagine the relief these gifts provide to our young men and women who are at war?”

Among the request-ed items are disposable razors, travel-size shampoo, mouthwash, toothbrushes, floss, chips, cookies, cup-of-noodles soup, Pop Tarts, sardines, crackers, instant oatmeal, gum, Tabasco Hot Sauce and baby wipes. Do not include chocolate, as it will melt.

LAKEWOOD — Elwood “Woody” Barker’s family and friends helped him celebrate his 90 years, at his home in Lakewood on Sunday, Feb. 23, with recollections that all served to confirm his lifelong work ethic.

“My dad served with him on the Lakewood School Board years ago,” Wayne Vroman said of Barker, whose term on the school board lasted from 1973-79. “He was always the hardest-working man around. He didn’t stop from early

morning to dark.”Jeanne and Alan Lish have

likewise known Barker since the mid-1970s, and recalled Elwood roping his son Steve into carpentry projects they did for the Lishes.

“Steve and I also taught together at Arlington High School,” Alan Lish said. “Even without that connection, I would have known how civic-minded Elwood was.”

“Elwood is one of the most sincere, friendly and positive people,” Jeanne Lish said. “He always has a wave and a smile for everyone, and he’s very proud of his family. He may be

90, but his mind is still sharp.”From his 50s through his

80s, granddaughter Stephanie Batenschoen observed how Barker remained active in building and fixing things.

“I’ve never met a man who worked as hard, and he was never done with his work,” Batenschoen said. “He always said the last thing he would ever do is pull the casket lid on top of himself.”

Grandson Bryce Barker, a Lakewood High School alum who now coaches LHS boys soccer, reported that Elwood attended not only all of his grandchildren’s games, but

also all of the games that Bryce has coached.

“He’s never really taken vacations,” Bryce Baker said. “He’s always had some proj-ect or something to do, and that structure has served as an example for the rest of our family to live by.”

“We’ll have been married 65 years in June, and he hasn’t changed a bit,” Marilyn Barker said. “He’s still the nicest, most gentle man.”

“All I ever wanted was a nice place to live, a good-looking wife and plenty of children to raise, and boy, I got it all,” Elwood Barker said.

The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quantity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood.When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the delivery vehicle.The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord.
