LAKEWOOD • TULALIP • QUIL CEDA VILLAGE Arlington middle schoolers host benefit social for Oso By Christopher Andersson [email protected] Hundreds of students were bustling around Post Middle School on May 22 as part of the Arlington and Darrington Oso Unity Social to benefit victims of the Oso mudslide. To enter the social, students had to make donations of food or money. Food was given to the Arlington Food Bank and money raised went to North Counties’ Family Services Relief Fund in Darrington. Students played carnival games, like the ring toss, trying to shoot down trolls or swinging a hammer down for a strength tester game, and they danced in the gym, played bingo and ate some of the pizza and snow cones available. Arlington School District public information coordinator Andrea Conley noted the event was “established to build unity between Darrington, Haller and Post Middle School following the Oso mudslide.” The event was hosted by Post Middle School PTSA and ASB leadership around Arlington. The PTSA received a grant of just over $5,000 from the Cascade Valley Hospital Foundation to cover costs. One of the student leaders, Ian Roskelley, said that Post Middle School leadership wanted to do something to raise money for victims. They were especially inspired to do something because they lost one of their fellow classmates, Jovon “Jojo” Mangual, in the mudslide, Roskelley said. Another student leader, Payton Bastien, said it was lot of work planning and putting all of the activities together, but that they hope it can bring all the local school communities together. staff photo by christopher andersson n Sixth-graders Seth Adamski (left foreground) and Dane Tallman (left background) take aim at “Bridge Trolls” during the Arlington & Darrington Oso Unity Social on May 22, which benefited victims of the Oso mudslide.

Powerful rainstorm results in flooded Marysville streets ADVERTISER: SPEC ADS SALES PERSON: Tom McLaughlin CREATED BY: DREIFEL PUBLICATION: SPEC-ADS Some Marysville neighborhoods were quickly overwhelmed by the rain accumulation. Outlook Staff City officials are calling the powerful rainstorm that hit Marysville late Sunday a 100-year event. The persistent rain system flooded neighborhoods and intersections and backed up storm drains, with water rising up to two feet in some areas. Public Works officials said that in the first hour and five minutes of the severe thunderstorm, Marysville received 2.61 inches of rain. The total accumulation from the storm was 3.40 inches. From a stormwater per- spective, a 100-year, 24-hour event (as defined by the state Department of Ecology Stormwater Management Manual for Western Washington) for this part of Marysville is 3.36 inches in a 24-hour period. As its name suggests, the incident is only likely to occur once in a century. “What the numbers tell us is that this was an extremely unique event in that we received the equivalent of a 100-year event in about two hours, as opposed to 24 hours,” Public Works Director Kevin Nielsen said. At its peak, the storm cell that hung over Marysville was producing a rainfall intensity of 2.48 inches per hour.

Chief Beazley joined the City of Arlington after retirement from the Fresno County Sheriff ’s Office and has been Chief of Police for Arlington since September 20, 2010. Under his administration the department has focused on Arlington’s growing problems of heroin abuse and homelessness. Cmdr. Brian DeWitt will serve as acting chief until further notice. Under his contract, Beazley will receive five months of severance pay and will be paid for unused vacation and sick time. The police chief ’s salary is just over $120,000 per year. Gov. Inslee approved a $25,000 state grant to repair the Darrington Timberbowl Rodeo Grounds, avoiding cancellation of the popular annual event. Outlook Staff n Nelson Beazley steps down after 3-1/2 years of service. Kristin Banfield, assistant city administrator and city spokesperson, said in a written release, “We wish him every success in his new endeavors.” The email also stated, “As is the case with all personnel matters, the City will not make any further comment on the departure.” Horsemanship Camps • Priest Point Grocery on Marine View Drive • Carr’s Hardware on 3rd Street • North County Outlook Office on State Ave. IN ARLINGTON: Blue Bird Cafe on Olympic Ave. Stillaguamish Athletic Club on 172nd Local Scoop on Olympic Ave. SUBSCRIBE to �orth �ounty Outlook and enjoy your community news in your mailbox www.northcountyoutlook.com Last week Gov.

The grant from the Washington State Department of Commerce will assist the Darrington Horse Owners Association, partners, clubs, businesses and the community with materials and supplies to upgrade the facility. The work will include updating electrical hookups and repairing old fencing around the main arena and the security perimeter of the rodeo fairgrounds. “These repairs will allow the rodeo to go on and the Timberbowl Rodeo Grounds will once again host rodeo fans from around the Pacific Northwest and Canada,” Inslee said.

Presented by Paul Ellis of the Department of Community and Economic Development (CED), the new code is a complete revision of the current sign regulations. The code governs the types and sizes of signs that can be used in different districts of the city. After two years of work, a committee held a public hearing with the planning commission last July. The committee included council members, business owners and CED director Paul Ellis. They worked under the leadership of Planning Commission chair Bruce Angell. The new code is guided by the specific character of the city’s geographic areas, rather than by land use, because of the new concepts of multiuse zoning of, for example, west Arlington and Smokey Point Boulevard. The 50-page document may be a challenge to comprehend for the average lay person, but Ellis said that sign companies will help clients meet the code. “We tested it out on some new applicants recently, and made some adjustments,” Ellis said, explaining that sign makers understand the language. “The sign makers know what cities allow,” Ellis added. Council members asked about strategies for enforcing the new code. “That’s a whole different topic,” Ellis said. Mayor Barbara Tolbert requested more outreach to inform the community about the new regulations. “We’ve always used a reactive approach,” she said. The city’s code enforcement manager pursues complaints, rather than tracking down violations, she explained. Sign permits are attached to new business applications. Call for bids The Arlington City Council gave staff authority on May 19 to call for bids to build a $40,000 “backwash” system to divert clean water from the Water Treatment Plant to the Old Town Wetland, to save the wear and tear and cost of putting the water through filters in the treatment plant, said Public Works Director Jim Kelly. The state Department of Ecology approved the project proposal in 2012, but, although the project was not included in this year’s budget, there are adequate funds in the Water Utility Capital fund, Kelly said. Existing signs that meet current code can remain until the business changes, under a grandfathering clause. Transit center art Council approved an inter-local agreement with Community Transit to help in the process of selecting art for the new Smokey Point Transit Center, on 173rd Street and Smokey Point Boulevard. The renovation of an existing bus stop currently in process will serve as a rendezvous point for several CT bus routes, on a plaza rather than on Smokey Point Boulevard, making it safer for bus users. The project continued this week with partial closures of Smokey Point Drive on Tuesday, May 27, and Thursday, May 29, for asphalt roadway repairs. On Tuesday, both east-and west-bound lanes of Smokey Point Drive were closed at the job trailer location. On Thursday the eastbound lane of Smokey Point Drive will be closed for 2 to 3 hours for installation of new traffic signal controls. The proposed art project will feature a vertical story pole of some kind in outdoor-durable and vandalresistant materials. A call for art proposals is scheduled for release as soon as all the documents are signed. While CT will purchase, install and maintain the finished work, the city has agreed to assist in reviewing proposals and selecting the best works to submit to CT for final approval. The center is scheduled for completion by the end of this year. Other council action Council approved an inter-local agreement with Snohomish County Department of Emergency Management (DEM) for its services in coordinating emergency management countywide. The cost of the services, which includes training and communications technology, is $1.12 per resident, up from $1.11 in 2013 and $1.08 in 2012. Based on Arlington’s current population of 18,270, the total cost to the city is $20,545. The city was in the process of assessing the value of the investment when the slide hit east of Oso in March. Up until that point the DEM was largely focused on “planning for the big one,” said Allen Johnson, city administrator, and assisting with local flood incidents. Council also agreed to extend a waiver for impact fees to businesses that change the use of their properties. For economic reasons, council suspended transportation fees and utility connection charges for commercial buildings that changed use. This decision extends the waiver through Dec. 31, 2015. In ongoing housekeeping efforts, council agreed to surplus some more stuff: a Lincoln welder, gallon roller, a utility trailer and a radar trailer. Council approved a professional services agreement with Herrera Environmental to complete a low impact drainage (LID) design for Smokey Point Boulevard, north of 188th Street NE to SR 530. A Department of Ecology grant for $120,000 will pay for design retrofits to infrastructure lacking up- 50-year sentence for Marysville man By Beckye Randall [email protected] Facing his third strike and an automatic life sentence if found guilty, Robert Kennedy, 27, pleaded guilty to seven felony charges, including theft and burglary, in the death of 82-year-old Arthur Schroeder in his Marysville mobile home in January 2013. Kennedy is now serving a 50-year sentence. With good behavior, he could be released in 2047. Prosecutors accepted the deal to avoid the risk of a trial, which would have required the testimony of a 13-year-old boy who was already traumatized by the events he witnessed. Schroeder’s neighbor Delaney Henry, who claimed responsibility for the murder in the days that followed, pleaded guilty to second de- gree murder and was sentenced to a 14-year prison sentence. Henry initially said she killed Schroeder, a registered sex offender, in retaliation for a sexual assault, but that accusation was proven false. The elderly man was stabbed four times and his throat was cut. Kennedy and Henry then searched his trailer, taking valuables and cash, and stealing his truck. to-date stormwater management systems. The funding is intended to improve water quality of the Stillaguamish River and Puget Sound. Herrera was selected after four proposals were received from consulting firms, said Bill Blake, the city’s stormwater manager. Council agreed to hire Katy Isaksen to execute the financial portions of comprehensive plans for water and sewer systems. The cost of nearly $10,000 for each system will be covered by the water and sewer capital budgets. Workshop Agenda At the May 26 workshop meeting, held on Tuesday due to the Memorlal Day holiday, council heard a presentation by Marysville Municipal Court Judge Laurie Towers on the “State of the Court,” and they discussed a proposed repeal of an ordinance for 172nd Street NE design standards. Public Works Director Jim Kelly suggested repealing the ordinance, created in 2007, which called for certain lane and median widths with landscaping and planter strips. “The community’s needs may be best served by designing a roadway based on traffic loads, drainage requirements and available funding,” Kelly said in the council agenda bill (CAB). Kelly also presented the lowest bidder for Phase 2A of the Prairie Creek Drainage Improvement Project. Bids were opened May 13 and staff is now reviewing the qualifications of the lowest May 28-June 4, 2014 North County Outlook bidder, Razz Construction. Phase 2 was divided into two parts due to lack of funding for the whole project. The multi-year project is intended to prevent flooding in Jensen Business Park. The city is also considering inter-local agreements for offsite data backup with the county of Yakima and Jamestown Networks, part of the S’Klallam Tribe Economic Development Authority, which provides a statewide fiber optic network for government agencies. Finance Director Jim Chase reported that most revenues are being received as expected, but there are some areas that are missing projections. Those include building permit revenues and liquor excise taxes. The city has collected just eight percent of its 2014 budget projections in building permits, compared to the 33 percent expected, Chase said in his report. He explained that the city’s share of liquor excise taxes is being “raided” by the legislature to help comply with the McCleary decision to fully fund education.

By Christopher Andersson [email protected] By Beckye Randall [email protected] With his Browning XT shotgun lodged firmly against his shoulder, Hayden Bollinger methodically blew clay targets out of the air over the Mother’s Day weekend to bring home a gold medal in the Washington State Bunker Shooting Junior Olympics, held in Renton. Hayden, a 15 year-old freshman at Arlington High School, will next compete in Colorado Springs July 6-11 to qualify for the National Junior Olympics. The Arlington teen’s accomplishments are impressive, especially in light of the fact that he has only been involved in the sport for a little over two years. “I went shooting with a friend a couple of years ago and really liked it,” said Hayden. “It kind of comes naturally to me, and it’s fun to do.” Olympic competitions are held in “international style,” which Hayden had only practiced for a month before the recent state contest. “The targets come a lot faster,” he explained, “and from many different directions. You really have to pay attention, because you don’t know where the target will show up.” n AHS freshman Hayden Bollinger with his tool of choice, a Browning XT shotgun.

Several of the older members at the Old Skagit Gun Club have mentored him and Coach Dori Jones, past winner of the World Championship in skeet shooting, has supported him with coaching at the Top Gun Club. Hayden also joined the Pacific International Trapshooting Association, where he is on the All Star Team as one of the organization’s top ten shooters in the under-18 category. The Junior Olym- courtesy photo pics competition is open to those 21 and younger. The Arlington teen also enjoys playing tennis and, even as a freshman, competed on the AHS varsity squad for some of this year’s matches.

The Washington Achievement Awards are given by the state’s Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction and the Washington State Board of Education based on their Achievement Index, which is compiled from assessment and accountability data from the past three years. For the 2012-13 school year, 413 schools across the state were given awards for their educational performance. Four schools in the Marysville School District received recognition. Getchell’s Academy of Construction and Engineering High School, Getchell’s Bio-Med Academy, and Arts and Technology High School were recognized for “High Progress,” indicating they were in the top ten percent for combined reading and math growth. Pinewood Elementary School received an award recognizing their English language acquisition program, which puts their English Language Learners in the top five percent of the state in language assessments. “We are very proud of our schools, their students, teachers, support staff, and parents who all worked together diligently to obtain this level of recognition from the Washington State Board of Education and OSPI,” said Becky Berg, Marysville School District superintendent in a press release. Two Arlington Elementary schools also received honors. Kent Prairie Elementary was recognized for “Overall Excellence,” “Math Growth” and “Reading Growth.” The Overall Excellence award honors schools in the overall top five percent that have sufficiently lowered their achievement gap, according to the State Board of Education. The Math Growth and Reading Growth awards go to schools in the top five percent of those growth categories. Arlington’s Presidents Elementary also received recognition for “Math Growth.” Lakewood School District’s English Crossing Elementary was honored for “High Progress” and “Math Growth” while Lakewood High School was honored for “High Progress” as well. More information on any school’s Achievement Index scores is available at https:// eds.ospi.k12.wa.us/WAI/ or at the State Board of Education’s website, www.sbe. wa.gov.

Two of his friends, Lars Kundu and Andy Vavrousek, passengers in the car, were injured but have since recovered. Each year since the tragic loss, students and staff at Marysville Getchell High School have organized a mile-long run in Juan’s honor. The event has officially been named the Juan Mendoza Memorial Mile, and it happens this Friday, May 30, at the MG track starting at 5 p.m. “The theme every year is ‘Drive Safe’,” said MG swim and girls’ golf coach Jaci LeGore-Hodgins. “The monies raised from this event go to a scholarship fund given by the MG Booster Club to a one male and one female athlete.” For newcomers, registration is $15 the day of the event, or $10 to pre-register, which includes a T-shirt. For those who already have a shirt, the participation cost is $10 or $5 for pre-registration. “We ask that everybody who comes wear their shirt from the previous year,” said LeGore-Hodgins.

Evans Civic Education Award recognizes students for civic leadership. “This is the highest reward in the state to recognize students who are already effective citizens,” said Carol Coe, the social studies program director at OSPI. The district had two winners last year as well. Students fill out social studies assessments from the state’s Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI) and get rated based on their scores and their community engagement. “Each year we tend to look for those who are the best in those two categories and submit them for nomination,” said Cedarcrest Middle School teacher Steven Cross, who helped to nominate three students this year from across the district.

She has been with her Girl Scouts program since kindergarten. “I think this is remarkable. Not just the longevity, but what she does as a Girl Scout,” said Coe. She visits with senior residents at Grandview Village, an assisted living center, mentors new troops, participates in food drives, worked on the Save Our Stream project in Marysville and is an assistant soccer coach. Coe also praised Sama niego’s ability to be an excellent student even with her extracurricular activities. Ethan Watts, a Getchell High School student, was given an honorable mention, but he would’ve been the next to receive the award if not for the other award winners, said Coe. Watts is engaged in his school community and other communities around him, as well as being the quarterback Pet Ruby for the Getchell Chargers. “I think we’re looking at a future Russell Wilson [the Seattle Seahawks quarterback]. He’s the quarterback of his team, he’s an outstanding student and he shows the kind of civic engagement like Russell Wilson does when he makes his weekly visits to Seattle Children’s Hospital,” Coe said. Coe also praised Watts’ ability to write and think, commenting that “he is a citizen, prepared to join the community both on the field and off.” Coe also thanked teacher Steven Cross, who takes the time to identify potential entrants each year for the district. “It means a great deal that you have a classroom teacher who, year after year, is willing to take the time to single out students who are especially deserving,” she said, adding it really helps her see that the district’s mission statement of “preparing students for college, career and responsible citizenship” is being pursued in full.

Answers. 1.800.ACS.2345 / www.cancer.org Interstate 5 A lot has changed in the last 30 years. Gas prices have skyrocketed, presidents have come and gone, and the economy has ebbed and flowed. But one thing that hasn’t changed? Rich Senff ’s reputation as Arlington’s leading authority on sporting goods. Storefronts in downtown Arlington are sometimes revolving doors, but Senff continues to supply sporting goods, equipment, and the area’s leading screen printing shop. Senff celebrates three decades in business with a special anniversary sale today and throughout this weekend, and fondly remembers his first few years as a store owner. “I was milking cows in 1984,” Senff said, “and my father came up to me and said, ‘The only way to make money is to be in business for yourself.’ So he asked if I wanted to buy the farm or the sports store that was for sale in town. My farming boss said farming was dying, so I did the sports store thing.” Action Sports originated in the old Winky’s Building in Arlington, but was one of the first businesses to move to the Stillaguamish Square. Senff purchased the company in 1984 and moved the following year to where the hardware store is currently located. Action Sports enjoyed its location by the hardware store for 17 years, but moved adjacent to the Local Scoop in early 2002. Senff moved his store for the final time last November to where it currently sits, at 340 N. Olympic Avenue in downtown Arlington. “This will be the last move I’ll ever make,” Senff said. “To the best of my knowledge only five or six businesses haven’t changed hands and/or moved in Arlington. There are no concrete businesses that have been consistent in this town for 30 years. Even the banks have changed names and hands. It just goes to show that in this little town in 30 years, there’s a huge change over.” But for as often as Action Sports has switched locations, its customer base has remained largely the same. Senff credits that consistency to the industry he’s in and his style of business. “I want to definitely give out kudos to my customers,” Senff said. “I like to be convenient for them. I like to believe that I’m honest and fair, and I think that shows some- Quil Ceda Boulevard By Andrew Kneeland [email protected] thing.” Senff is known for his accommodating style, too. If someone needs something he doesn’t offer, Senff usually has that item in stock when it’s needed the next year. And if you’re running late, Senff will keep the doors open for you. One of Action Sports’ biggest draws is its silk screen printing shop, which regularly brings in customers from Stanwood, Snohomish, and as far away as Woodinville. People often want their own name printed on custom apparel, and Senff is one of the best and quickest in the business. Action Sports also does embroidery, heat press lettering and even custom window decals. Senff has learned quite a bit of industry secrets in his three decades of operation, and gladly shares his tips and tricks with anyone who asks. “(How to make it for 30 years?) Be open,” Senff said. “Be available. Have the business open for reasonable business hours. Don’t park in your customers’ parking spots. It seems so simple, but it’s true. Have a small-town feel, have no problem talking to the people and being communicative and making them feel at home.” Senff ’s down-to-earth, honest business style is on display at Action Sports from Monday through Saturday in downtown Arlington on Olympic Avenue.

Recently we have been discussing our views on discipline and handling misbehavior of children. Both of us were spanked as children…my husband feels this worked on him, and that it is something he will use in the future with our children in order to get good behavior. I feel pretty strongly that spanking had some negative effects on me, mainly fear of my parents (dad, mainly), resentment and humiliation…things I’m not sure I want my children to experience. Help! - Anxious Expectant Parent Dear Anxious, This is a very common issue in families. How to discipline children is often one of the things that couples argue about the most. I commend you for reaching out, and for addressing this issue BEFORE you have children. Spanking has been hotly debated for several decades. Most of us were raised with this punishment and I often hear… ‘I didn’t turn out so bad’. Interestingly, however, when questioned further about their feelings at the time it was happening, most adults report feeling resentful, humiliated, confused, and that the adults in their lives just didn’t understand them. It’s true that spanking may result in instant compliance—kids WILL stop n Parenting expert Penny Davis will offer tips in an ongoing column in North County Outlook. doing the behavior if we hit them—but we need to ask ourselves what we are really teaching. Children learn from what we DO, not what we SAY (that old phrase that many of us heard, ’do as I say, not as I do’ just isn’t effective). Children are always watching and learning about themselves and the world by observing the grown-ups in their lives. Spanking, at best, teaches our children that it is permissible to hit when we are angry, and at worst, that it’s OK to hit people who are smaller than us. Is that really what we want? Our job as parents is to discipline (the root word of which is ‘disciple’ which means ‘to teach’) in such a way that our children can learn valuable social and life skills for the future. Our goal should be discipline for the long-term, not for the ‘quick fix’. Most parents, when surveyed, indicate that they would prefer NOT to spank, if they had other tools that were effective. Research over the past 40 years has determined that the most effective discipline (called Authoritative in the literature), is that in which parents are both kind AND firm. Children do better in an environment of respect, where their voice is heard and their opinions matter, while at the same time learning rules and guidelines, problem-solving and responsibility. There are many books, programs, and other resources that help parents understand how to accomplish this without the use of physical punishment. I would recommend the ‘Positive Discipline’ series of books by Jane Nelsen, Ed.D. For your family, I would suggest ‘Positive Discipline, The First Three Years.’ Good luck to you. You and your husband are embarking on one of life’s most interesting journeys. Penny Davis, M.A, has been a parenting educator, teacher trainer and consultant for over 35 years.

Rates for services in other departments will be added to the price lists throughout the year. “With higher deductibles and increasing out-of-pocket expenses, patients are demanding greater transparency in healthcare costs,” said Rick Cooper, CEO of The Everett Clinic. “Pricing information can help patients make informed decisions about getting quality care at a reasonable price.” Posting prices is part of an organization-wide effort to ensure patients receive the most affordable and best care possible. The Clinic recently reduced overall fees by 10 percent for uninsured patients and patients paying for services not covered by insurance. The Everett Clinic has been a strident supporter of price transparency. A Robert Wood Johnson Foundation report in April praised the Clinic for its efforts to lower healthcare costs and for its support for a state all-payer claims database that would enable anyone to compare the cost of health care services from any provider. During the 2014 legislative session, a bill that would have created such a database was amended before passage. The original bill would have required all health insurance plans to publicly list how much they pay care providers, so consumers could compare prices. The amended bill made it voluntary for private health plans to list their pricing. As a result, only state-run health insurance plans and Medicaid will be required to provide information to the database. To see the cost of the clinic’s common services, visit www.everettclinic.com.

The flowering cherries, plums, crab apples and magnolias have long since lost their glow and the rhodies and azaleas are pretty much done as well. If we want to keep a continuous display of color in our gardens, we need plants that will bloom in the summer rather than the spring. Besides the obvious choices of annuals, perennials and bulbs there is a surprisingly large palette of shrubs that will give us a thrill throughout the summer months. Here are some of my favorites. For a more complete review come to our free class this Saturday, May 31, at 10 a.m. by Trevor Cameron C.P.H. and learn more about how to incorporate these plants into your landscape. ROSES—Roses will bloom all summer starting in early June and, if you don’t want to mess with all the issues of growing hybrid tea roses, then I highly recommend the Floral Carpet, Drift or Oso Easy series which are completely disease free. Don’t think of them as roses but rather as landscape shrubs with rose-like flowers. HYDRANGEAS—The big leaf varieties do best in courtesy photo n Church member and auctioneer Bob Lilly demonstrates the benefits of a warm quilt at last year’s auction. Summer Sale! BIG SAVINGS! On In-stock carpet & vinyl Where quality is a family tradition. 615 State Ave. • Marysville • 360-659-7007 • 360-659-0663 #BUNDYCI9455DA • www.bundycarpets.com [email protected] mary fundraising event for the church’s mission fund, which supports local, national and international outreach including support for the Marysville Community Lunch Program and the Marysville Master’s Feast, which provide meals to homeless and other foodinsecure people in Snohomish County throughout the week. The Marysville Cold Weather Shelter also receives funds from the auction proceeds. Additional funds support missions in Senegal, Africa, and missionaries around the world. Tickets to the auction and dessert are $10 per person or $20 per family (up to four people), and can be purchased at the church office or by calling (360) 659-7777. Earlier that same day, the church will host a plant sale from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., with proceeds going to support a youth mission to build homes in Mazatlan this July. n Weigela Hortensis morning sun and afternoon shade and they come in all shapes and sizes. The flowers are mostly pink or blue but there are also many new forms that are multi-colored and repeat bloomers. Endless Summer is my first choice. For sunny locations try the P.G. types like Limelight or Pinky Winky or, for a more unusual leaf form, the Oakleaf varieties. SPIRAEAS—Work horses for the sunny border, these shrubs will bloom in early June and if you shear them back will re-bloom in the fall. Magic Carpet has been my long-time favorite but the new Double Play series is more mildew resistant and the foliage color more vibrant. ABELIA—Again, this is a full sun performer with pale pink tubular flowers that the hummers love. It comes into bloom later in the summer and for maximum foliar interest try Kaleidoscope.

They come in many colors and growing habits (from 18 inches tall to 5 feet tall) and will attract both butterflies and hummers in the summer. POTENTILLA—Okay, I admit this is not my favorite summer blooming shrub but for absolute drought tolerance and “thrive on neglect” toughness, it is hard to beat. It comes in white, pink and shades of gold and orange. WEIGELA—The best thing about this plant is listening to customers trying to pronounce it! But seriously, this old-time shrub has gone through an extensive breeding revival and the new Sonic Bloom series will give you blooms now and again in the fall. CLETHERA—Also known as Summer Sweet, this is a late bloomer with white or pink flowers (Ruby Spice is a real winner) that has wonderful fragrance… hence the name. ITEA—Sweet Spire can be an awkward growing shrub but the summer flowers smell very pleasant and the dark red fall color hangs on forever. Little Henry is a winner. Both Clethera and Itea tolerate wet soils so they are a good candidate for our northwest soils. LEYCESTERIA—Golden Lanterns (also sold as Jealousy) may be one of my all-time favorite summer blooming shrubs. The foliage is stunning and the flowers and berries have a metallic sheen about them. Pheasant Berry is the common name and for good reason. The birds love the berries.

He held an A&P license and was a Quality Control Inspector at Boeing. David was known for his big heart and gentle spirit. He helped anyone in need and his sentimentality led him to keep everything. To his nephews, he was fun-loving, teasing and the definition of cool. To his niece, he was the doting, gushing uncle. He made us all laugh with his antics and you could count on him to out-gift all the other adults when it came to showering the kids with the best presents on holidays and birthdays. He was also his mom’s biggest fan. David loved tattoos, hockey, Seahawks, teasing kids, and reading his Bible. He had a deep affection for his grandparents, Ken and Betty, and was always striving to make his dad, Ken, proud. He is survived by his parents, Ken and Marilynn, his two sisters, Jennifer Ervig and Joanna Merino, and their spouses, Randy Ervig and Ernie Merino; three nephews and one niece, Aiden Ervig, Alec Ervig, Silas Merino and Ellary Merino. Services were held on May 21 at The Grove Church in Marysville. facebook.com/NorthCountyOutlook Twitter: @ncoutlook North County Voices May 28-June 4, 2014 North County Outlook 13 n GUEST EDITORIAL Get up, get out, clean up W e are finally getting out of the “winter d ro op s” Cheryl Deckard and into the bright and sunny days of spring and summer. When those changes take hold you begin to notice the sounds of lawn mowers, you see color returning from a winter’s sleep of darkness. It is the time that Mother Earth springs forth with all that is beautiful, cheerful and welcoming. You see people working on their outdoor projects un-planting the weeds that took hold during the fall and winter months and replacing them with colorful pieces of plantart. The sounds of summer, children’s laughter, neighbors visiting across the backyard fence, sitting on porches enjoying the beautiful weather and the company of friends and neighbors, the smells of a Bar-B-Q, all signals of the wonderful season ahead. It also signals the time to begin cleaning up our yards, painting our homes and all those maintenance projects that we have been able to put off over the fall and winter months. It doesn’t matter if you own your home or you are renting, get up, get out and clean up. I am sure most landlords would welcome your efforts; it will only improve their property value. Check with your neighbors and put together a neighborhood work party day. This would encourage everyone in your area to get out, meet their neighbors, clean up around their homes and help those that might need a helping hand. It could become a “block party” of sorts. Have a neighborhood Bar-B-Q and turn a Saturday into a fun, productive and enriching experience. I would bet you will meet some great people, make some good friends and create a pleasant, inviting and comfortable neighborhood, one that you can all be proud of. We have all driven through the streets of Everett and seen the older homes being renovated, while at the same time keeping the “Old Everett look.” So many of these homes proudly display a “Monte Cristo Award” given to those homes that best depict the Everett of old melding together with the Everett of today. The City of Marysville now has its own awards that will showcase the best our city has to offer. There is a true sense of pride and accomplishment surrounding these awards. Past winners have taken great care with their properties and have shown the pride they have in their homes, businesses and neighborhoods, as well they should. It is that time of the year when you can give recognition to those you feel deserve to have their homes or businesses or neighborhoods showcased for 2014. Nominate a residence, a neighborhood or a business for The Pride of Marysville Awards, 2014. The awards will be presented on July 16, 2014, with the deadline for submitting nominees, July 2, 2014. If you notice a home, neighborhood or business that you feel deserves recognition for its curb appeal and all around neat appearance, don’t hesitate to nominate them for one of the awards. You can go to the City of Marysville web site and get all the details. Have and wonderful summer, everyone! by Beckye Randall, Co-Publisher/Editor Summer outings with less impact As the sun comes out and the ground dries out, Snohomish County residents flock to local parks and trails, anxious to make the most of our sometimes abbreviated summer. The additional traffic can cause unintended consequences, as trash and other “leavebehinds” challenges dwindling parks maintenance resources. This year, the county parks department is encouraging visitors to “pack it in, pack it out” when visiting our local parks. A recent press release from the county laid out the plan: “The phrase ‘Pack It In, Pack It Out’ is not new to visitors of state and national parks,” said County Executive John Lovick, “It means that visitors are expected to ‘leave no trace’ by taking the items they bring into the parks, out of the parks, and then disposing or recycling those items responsibly at home. With the help of county residents and visitors, the county parks department can continue to maintain our beautiful parks and provide an even better experience for park visitors.” The effort to cut down on garbage at the parks came after an analysis of the significant costs to collect, manage, and transport waste generated by more than 4.7 million annual county park users. “The county had been managing over 500 garbage cans at county parks, taking time and resources away from programs, other maintenance tasks, and other community amenities,” Snohomish County Parks Director Tom Teigen said. “We’ve piloted ‘Pack It In, Pack It Out’ with great results, and estimate that with the public’s help, we’ll save park staff over 3,500 hours and be able to reallocate over $200,000 a year in time and other resources toward other park efforts.” Parks officials rolled out the “Pack It In, Pack It Out, Recycle at Home” campaign in May, and it will continue throughout the busy summer season. By spring 2015 it’s expected that the parks department’s inventory of staff-serviced garbage cans will shrink from 500 to about 75, and that the amount of waste diverted from landfills will increase by up to 33 percent.

NCO Online Communities 15 n SECRETS OF THE TULALIP CHEFS Simple is best with Copper River salmon “Fresh Copper River Salmon”…speak these words and ears will perk up! Chef David Buchanan Tulalip Resort Casino The 2014 Copper River salmon run opened on May 15, which sparked the annual frenzy among local restaurants, chefs and consumers. Fish lovers will argue about which is better, some staunchly proclaiming Chinook is best—after all it is called King Salmon! Others contend that Sockeye has the best flavor. I have found that King Salmon has the highest fat content, producing a sultry, tender texture; and the Sockeye has a more robust flavor with a firmer texture. Although my personal preference is Sockeye, I would never turn down a serving of Chinook! The recipe was inspired by my desire to keep things simple. Whether you prefer Chinook or Sockeye, this preparation adds a nice flavor, but won’t mask the fabulous salmon on the plate. This accompaniment can be stored tightly wrapped in the refrigerator for about 2 weeks. chill. When using this method, take a small melon baller or ½-oz. scoop to remove the desired portion sizes. If the scoop method is used, press the butter to about ¼ inch thick after removing—allowing the butter to easily melt over the salmon. 1-1/2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped 1-1/2 tablespoons black pepper 1/2 teaspoon sea salt 3 pounds Copper River Salmon, skin off and cut into 6 ounce portions Salmon preparation Garlic Butter procedure Remove butter from the refrigerator and let it stand until reaching room temperature. Place a sauté pan on medium-low heat with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Once the oil becomes hot, add garlic and cook until golden brown (use a spatula to stir and keep from sticking). Remove from hot pan and cool. Reserve for later. Use a large bowl and a hand-mixer or KitchenAid (with paddle attachment), add butter and whip until smooth and creamy. Add the reserved garlic and remaining ingredients (except the salmon) and blend well. Place mixture on wax paper and roll into a 2-inch thick sausage shape. Reserve in refrigerator and chill until firm. Cut into 1/4” thick discs for serving (remove paper as needed) and place 2 discs over each serving of hot salmon. Another option would be to place the butter in an airtight storage container and Lightly season with kosher salt. If grilling, lightly season the grates with pan spray. Once hot, place salmon on the grill with flesh side down. After several minutes, quarter turn it (gently lift with a steel spatula and turn it 45 degrees; this adds the diamond marks on the serving side of the fish). After several minutes, turn the salmon over and continue cooking to desired doneness. Enjoy!
