SR 530 and short-term
answers for traffic.

the many family-friendly activities are fun for all ages.

At 10 in the morning on
Saturday the sun was shining, and so were the smiling,
happy faces of children running around Jennings Park
for this year’s Easter Egg
Hunt.
The parking lots at the
park were overflowing with
cars, with many taking advantage of the overflow lot
at Marysville Middle School.
The park itself was bustling
with members of the Marysville community, an indication that this annual event
has become a tradition for
many local families.
Activities ranged from
the initial Easter egg hunt to
face painting and photo opportunities with the Easter
bunny. Seed packets were
also handed out to encourage the community to start
planting seeds and reap the
benefits of having a garden
during this spring season.
“We have come here for
the Easter Egg Hunt every
year,” said eight-year-old
Ella Merenes as she excitedly opened each of her eggs.
“There are so many people
and it is a lot of fun.”
The free family event, organized by the Marysville
Parks and Recreation De-
partment, featured more
than 12,000 plastic eggs filled
with candy and prizes hidden
around Jennings Park Rotary
Ranch and Master Garden.
Children were able to collect eight eggs from their designated age-specific area. All
participants were asked to
bring a canned food item for
donation to the Marysville
Food Bank, which added to
the joyful atmosphere.
The City of Marysville,
Marysville Noon Rotary,
Steve Fulton State Farm Insurance and Grandview Village all came together to help
this kid-friendly celebration
of Easter be a success.

group scoured the park for hidden eggs.
SR 530 may not re-open
until fall and the one-lane
gravel access road may be
used as a temporary solution for traffic, according to
WSDOT officials at an April
16 meeting.
Washington State Department of Transportation engineers and county officials
discussed the current plans
around SR 530 and traffic solutions at the Stillaguamish
Senior Center.
Officials used the meeting
to gather public opinion, said
Linea Laird, WSDOT chief
engineer.
“This is just the first phase
of the process with you,” she
said. The meeting, along
with two others, was meant
to gather concerns and questions. Staff at the transportation agency intend to continue the public dialogue in the
near future, she said.
Temporary Solutions
The current plan to provide temporary relief for local traffic is to use the gravel
one-lane access road (a.k.a.
the “power line road”), says
WSDOT Snohomish/King
County assistant regional administrator Todd Harrison.
The road was constructed
for use by Seattle City Light
for maintenance.
The two-mile long stretch
leaves SR 530, curves around
the debris area and connects
back to SR 530.

530: Recovery efforts take precedence over rebuilding highway
Continued from page 1
rently using the road presently to move equipment
around. Once they release
the road it will be open for
public use shortly after, perhaps within a day, said Harrison.
The road is not ideal, said
Laird. There are no guard
rails and it has steep grades
and sharp curves.
For safety reasons it would
only be open during daylight
hours and the speed limit
would be about 10 mph, said
Harrison.
Currently WSDOT officials are planning to allow
one direction of traffic access
to the road at the beginning
of every hour and the opposite direction to be given access at the beginning of every
half hour, said Harrison.
A contract for a company
to manage that traffic flow is
out for bid now.
Only local traffic would
be allowed access, although
the specifics of that provision
aren’t nailed down, said Harrison.
Allowing heavy trucks
through the access road will
be possible, but will create
complications if they’re next
to small cars, said Laird.
Although heavy trucks are
important for Darrington,
she added. “How do we solve
both issues with one road?
That’s going to be our challenge,” she said.
Future of SR 530
The Arlington to Darrington portion of SR 530
may not be open again until the fall, said Lorena Eng,
regional administrator for
the northwest region for
WSDOT.
Snohomish County public works director Scott Thompson (left) and WSDOT chief engineer Linea Laird answer questions about SR 530 and the
Oso landslide during a April 16 meeting in Arlington.
Recovery efforts take first
priority at the site, Laird
said.
“One of the things we’ve
heard at family meetings, especially from those who still
have missing family members, is that they want the
recovery effort to continue,”
said Eng.
There’s still about 100,000
cubic yards of material on the
road, she said, and that mud
has to be removed slowly and
carefully.
“It is a very slow process.
You are using smaller equipment. We’re using spotters so
every scoop is looked at and
moved away. It’s part of the
recovery effort and there are
things that are of value still
there,” she said.
WSDOT officials aren’t
exactly sure what they will
find once they’ve uncovered
the road either.
They know that pieces of
asphalt with yellow stripes,
likely pieces of SR 530, have
already been recovered, so at
least some parts of the highway will need to be rebuilt,
said Eng.
Changes in the Stillaguamish River must also be
taken into account when rebuilding SR 530.
The bottom of the river
has been raised by as much
as ten feet in some places, she
said, and officials are unsure
what the final course of the
river will look like.
The new SR 530 is probably going to take the same
path as the previous one.
Eng said their geologists examined the historic slide deposits, going back thousands
of years, and found that there
wasn’t much improvement
that could be done.
“What we found actually
is that SR 530 is probably in
the best location given the
geology of the area and the
fact that it is in the bottom of
a valley,” said Eng.
Property Values
Those with property in
the slide area were concerned
if property values would ever
recover.
Some were concerned
about potential changes to
SR 530 that could affect access, although maintaining
accessibility was important,
said county officials.
“One of the things the state
has talked about is, regardless of where the road ends
up, maintaining access to all
the private property that is in
there,” said Steve Thompson,
director of public works in
Snohomish County.
Property owners were
also concerned about if the
mud will be moved, but the
amount of material might
prove difficult.
Although the debris piles
that workers are creating will
be removed, there are no
plans to move the immense
amount of mud and material
still on the land, said Thompson.
“You’ve got 5 million cubic yards [of material] in the
valley floor that’s all on private property and most of
that’s going to stay,” he said.
“The sheer volume there is
just too much.”
The main problem is that
currently they have no funding source that could handle
that work, said Thompson.
Laird said that the problem of moving the material
is something they haven’t approached yet, because they
are dealing with recovery
efforts and restoring at least
minimal transportation options right now.

Lady Eagles fly into season’s second half Room for growth
for young golfers
By Andrew Kneeland
[email protected]
The softball season is half
over, and Arlington’s midterm grades are better than
some expected.
The Eagles fell by a score
of 9-0 to league rival Snohomish last week, struggling offensively against
the league’s only unbeaten
squad, but head coach Dan
Eng is pleased with his team’s
performance regardless.
“This was the game I was
looking forward to, to see
where we were at after the
first half of the season,” Eng
said. “We’re rebuilding this
year, we’re doing fine. We
saw some mistakes—five of
their runs were unearned—
so we’ll grow from there.”
Chandler Bishop (3-1)
got the start for the Eagles,
and wasn’t able to contain
the Panthers’ mighty offense,
giving up six runs in three
innings. Madeline Maclean

idea of what the second half

the most important,” Eng

Arlington had runners
on base in five of the seven
innings against Snohomish, but couldn’t manage the
timely hits to knock those
runs across the plate. It’s just
the second time the Eagles
have been shut out this season; the first was in March
against Lake Washington.

week with a huge 15-0 win
against Mariner, and hosted
Lynnwood earlier this week.

dropped to 4-1, good for second place in the North 4A.
Unbeaten Snohomish is in
first.
Katelyn McDonald, the
team’s captain and first baseman, continues to supply
Arlington with the bulk of
its offense. The senior slugger has tallied six doubles so
far this season, and managed
three hits off Snohomish’s
Alissa Simons last week.
“Alissa Simons is a very
good pitcher,” said Eng, who
coaches Simons in the sum-
Pet
mer on his club team. “She
moves the ball around and
she’s very accurate. You’ve
got to hit the right pitch at
the right time. It’s very difficult.”
But for the left-handed
McDonald, Eng said, everything has been going right
this season.
“She is seeing the ball
good and hitting really well,”
Eng said. “She is a great hitter. I wish I had five more
(lefties) like Katelyn.”
With just nine games
left on Arlington’s schedule,
including this afternoon’s
contest at Kamiak, Eng and
his Eagles are preparing for
a close battle in the Wesco
North 4A. Lake Stevens is
still in the mix, but Snohomish looks to be the team to
beat.
“We have to give them
credit,” Eng said of the Panthers last week. “They’re
full of seniors and they’re
on a mission. Last year they
missed it by one game and
they’re getting it done this
year.”

It might be a rebuilding
year for the Arlington High
School golf team, but don’t
count Aiden McCann and
the Eagles out just yet.
“This year is a rebuilding
year,” Arlington head coach
Kevin Coghill said. “As the
season progresses, I do believe a couple of our players
will improve enough to make
it to the district tournament
at the end of the year.”
After a successful season
in 2013 that saw a secondplace finish in the league and
a district tournament appearance, several key parts of
Arlington’s varsity squad left
to graduation. McCann, the
team’s captain, and Gus Abel
are the two lone seniors on
this year’s iteration of Eagles.
‘Youth’ and ‘potential’ are
two things the Eagles have
in great supply this year, and
Coghill is doing all he can to
help his team be the best they
can be.
“We have some kids on
varsity who have a lot of potential,” Coghill said, “but
they need to fine-tune their
games and need more competitive experience in order
to compete with some of the
top players in our league.”
Leading the way, both on
the course and off, is McCann. He’s been playing golf for
just a few years, but McCann
has impressed his coach with
natural talent and leadership.
It wasn’t until late last year
that McCann fully realized
that he was actually a pretty
good golfer.
“I didn’t have the best
scores all year,” McCann said
about his 2013 season at Arlington, “but at districts I
shot an 85 the first day and I
made the cut, which I never
expected to do. That is when
I realized that I had the potential to play a lot better

n Aiden McCann lines up a perfect putt at Gleneagle Golf Course
last Thursday.
than I was.”
McCann tallied two birdies through the first two
holes last Thursday at Glen
eagle Golf Course, but as
sheets of rain poured down
on the sloppy course, everyone’s scores took a turn for
the worse.
“I feel like all aspects of
my game are pretty good,
but my strengths change in
any given round,” McCann
said. “One day I’ll be perfect
off the tee and on the green
but my wedge play will be
sloppy. But the next day (it
will be the opposite). What
I’m focusing on in practice is
… to have all aspects of my
game going well in any given
round.”
McCann has nothing but
good things to say about his
coach.
“Kevin is a great coach,”
McCann said. “He knows
how to practice very well and
how to shave off strokes just
by bettering one part of your
game, such as chipping. All of
us have different parts of our
game that we need to work
on, so on certain days we get
to go out on the course and
really focus on practicing
our weak points.”
Coghill and two local
pros—John Kelley and Darren Tucker—are investing the
hours into this group of high
school golfers, and the high
schoolers return the favor by
investing hours into a group
of even younger golfers.
Each Friday the team will
hold a clinic with the local
Boys and Girls Club to help
teach the kids the basics of
how to hit a golf ball. Coghill
is the athletic director of the
club.
Arlington tees off in Lynn
wood this afternoon, and
will travel to Lake Stevens
early next week for another
chance to test themselves
against their tough Wesco
opponents.
The Eagles’ final meet of
the regular season is May 6
in Snohomish.

Pilchuck proved superior in the sprinting events,
Getchell won their share
of distance runs, and both
Marysville schools combined
to dominate Meadowdale
last Thursday at Quil Ceda
Stadium.
Austin Joyner posted an
impressive time of 11.05 in
the 100-meter dash and Deion Stell ran a 23.28 in the
200-meter dash. Mackenzie
Nolte ran her 100-meters
in 13.24, and Amanda Klep
tallied a time of 27.63 in the
200-meter dash. All four
Tomahawks won first place
in their events. Joyner also
took top honors in the long
jump, and Klep won the shot
put.
Getchell’s Garrett Westover sped through the 400-meter dash with a time of 53.06
for first place, and Austin
Miller’s 4:48.95 won the mile
run. Cameron Wagstaff won
the two-mile run with a time
of 10:40.62.

The Marysville Getchell
boys’ soccer team is riding
a lengthy losing streak, but
they’ve proven competitive
against the tough teams on
their schedule.
Getchell gave Glacier
Peak a run for their money
last weekend, but ultimately
fell to the unbeaten Grizzlies
by a score of 4-0.
The Chargers were on the
defensive for much of the
game, but kept Glacier Peak
scoreless in the first half.
Freshman goalkeeper Conor
Beegle racked up seven or
eight saves in the game’s first
40 minutes of action, but his
team wasn’t able to capitalize
on any of its infrequent scoring threats.
A frustrated Glacier Peak
squad came out in the second
half ready for action, however, and scored three quick
goals within eight minutes of
each other.
Getchell’s record fell to
2-8 overall, and 1-6 among
North 3A opponents. With
the league-leaders consistently beating each other,
though, the Chargers are
only two games out of first
place. They hosted Mount-

a great chance to vault back
into contention in the Wesco

Marysville Freemasons
recognized local students
during their 37th annual Junior Achievement Night on
April 15.
Juniors from the Lakewood School District and the
Marysville School District
submitted applications for
the award and a committee
of Masons selected students
based on academic achievement, community involvement and school activities.
At the Marysville Crystal Lodge, 24 students from
four high schools were honored for their achievements.
Two students received a $500
scholarship towards further
education as well.
“Crystal Lodge has been
part of Marysville for some
113 years now,” said Mason
and master of ceremonies
for the night Daniel Harper.
“[The lodge] has been a supporter of our local teachers
and students such as this, the
Junior Awards Achievement
Night, scholarship programs
and outreach programs.”
Masons have a long history supporting students, said
Harper.
“One of the things that our
founding fathers believed in,
many of whom were Masons,
was that every citizen should
have the right to a good education. To that end, our public education system was established. Masons have in the
past supported that school
system and will continue to
do so,” he said.

Marysville students learn manufacturing skills
Part one in a series
on local career and
technical education:
The Penguin
Manufacturing Lab.
[email protected]
The Penguin Manufacturing Lab hosts many traditional woodworking and
metal-working tools, but
also introduces students to
the computer machinery that
makes up modern manufacturing.
Students are used to seeing computers as something
abstract, but the class helps
them bring the computer
work into “real-life,” said
Marcus Knowles, the Arts
and Technology teacher who
runs the lab.
“When a kid sees a computer do something they
designed, that really is what
opens their eyes to the possibilities,” he said.
The lab is on State Avenue
and was formerly part of the
Totem Middle School campus.
Students come to shape
wood and metal with numerous tools including a
CNC machine used to cut
computer-designed shapes
in wood.
n A&T student Jaeson Wilkes works on his metal pencil holder at the Penguin Manufacturing Lab.
They make a wide variety
of projects, from wood bill
boxes and metal pencil holders in the basic manufacturing classes, to their own projects in the advanced classes
and STEM Club.
Colton King, one of
Knowles’ students, said he
appreciates the class because
he really gets to work with
his hands.
He’s currently building a
guitar, which he says involves
a lot of research if he wants it
to sound good.
The free-ranging nature
of the advanced classes gives
students the opportunity to
not only pick their own projects but figure them out on
their own as well, said Colton.
Student Demri Lewis says
that sense of trust can be uplifting. “They [the teachers]
believe we can make things,”
she said.
However, students aren’t
afraid to seek assistance when
it’s needed. “Another thing
you learn in this class is how
to yell because you’re always
screaming for ‘Knowles’ over
the machines when you need
help,” said Colton.
Running into their own
problems and learning how
to deal with them is an essential skill that’s hard to replicate in other classes, says
Knowles.
“You can’t get frustrated
at welding by reading about
it. There’s no welding book
about all the challenges of
actually doing it,” he said
Actually working with the
tools and materials is different from interpreting ideas
on pages, said student Joel
Scott. “We get to think spatially, instead of just on paper. It challenges my brain
in a way that two dimensions
don’t,” he said.
It’s a good way to prepare
to become an aerospace engineer, he noted.
Reaching into his pocket, Joel pulled out his most
recent project—a one-inch
metal cube that is manufactured to tolerances within
1/3000ths of an inch.
Learning about engineering tolerance (how exact your
measurements must be) is an
important part of his classes,
said Knowles, as students realize how they would apply
different standards depending on what they’re making.
For example, in the aerospace industry, parts tend
to be made to a very precise
standard with low tolerance,
he said.
The STEM Club and other
students also help build items
that will be used by the community, sometimes as part of
their senior project.
Student Grant Baker
is currently working on a
bench for Totem Middle
School. He’s completed a
couple other benches for the
school already.
Other students have manufactured products like recycling bins and a cage-like
device to help move deer for
the Sarvey Wildlife Center in
Arlington. Last fall students
helped Marysville’s Cedarcrest Golf Course conduct a
watershed study.
For real-life experience they work with local
manufacturing companies
like Frank Lumber and Silicon Energy, according to
Knowles. As a bonus, students are often exposed to
internship
opportunities
available in many of those
businesses, he said.
The “Core Plus” curriculum that the lab uses was
designed by the aerospace
industry and helps prepare
students for real-world applications of skills.
“The whole point of my
job is to get these kids good
jobs,” said Knowles. “These
kids have the skills to get
jobs. They shouldn’t have to
start out at McDonalds or
some other place when they
graduate.”

year for students to plant.
Jerri Novy, one of the
MCEP teachers who accompanied the students on the
field trip, said that learning
about ecosystems and how
trees fit into them is a part of
the classroom curriculum.
When the students are
planting trees they also get
to work with ecologists and
scientists in action, she said,
which helps them actually
experience what those people do and can spark an interest.

Pitching in for a Clean Sweep
9
Spring Savings on In-Stock Vinyl!
By Beckye Randall
[email protected]
Time for spring cleaning?
You’re in luck!
The City of Marysville
kicks off Clean Sweep Week
with a concerted effort on
Saturday, April 26, to help
residents clear out boxes of
old documents, outdated
computer equipment, and
even that hard-to-dispose-of
Styrofoam.
Beginning at 9 a.m. on
Saturday, the parking lot at
City Hall, 1049 State Avenue,
will be filled with volunteers
helping to haul boxes to the
shredding truck. Staff from
Windermere Realty will accept old computers and
other equipment, including
non-CRT monitors. Marysville Sunrise Rotary members will collect Styrofoam of
all shapes and sizes, destined
for transport to a nearby recycling center.
Volunteers are encouraged to meet at Jennings Park
at 10 a.m. to help with the
citywide Graffiti Paint-Out
project. City maintenance
staff will provide painting
materials and location assignments to wipe out taggers’ “hot spots” of activity.

in Marysville. The Shred-a-Thon is planned for April 26 this year in the City Hall parking lot.
Other city crews will be
assisting property owners all
week with cleanup projects
along State Avenue, 51st Avenue and 67th Avenue.
Clean Sweep Week is
the perfect impetus to tidy
up homes and businesses,
clear out the fire hazards in
your garage, and help make
Marysville a more attractive
place to live.
And who knows? Maybe
your work will pay off with
a nomination in the city’s
Pride of the Neighborhood
beautification program.
Where quality is a family tradition.

Understanding organic gardening
Back in
my hippydippy days
of the late
‘60s
and
early ‘70s, I
was a devoBy Steve Smith tee of the
organic
gardening movement, with
subscriptions to Rodale’s
Organic Gardening Magazine along with Prevention
and Mother Earth News.
My favorite cookbooks were
“Diet for a Small Planet” and
Adelle Davis’s “Let’s Eat Right
to Keep Fit.” I had a fabulous
organic garden and a very
large compost pile, but my
passion was far from mainstream. Fast forward 40 years
and I am pleased to say that
organic gardening and eating
healthy have indeed become
the norm and it is very gratifying to see this happening.
Here is a quick overview
of the essence of what organic gardening is all about. Sign
up for our class this coming
Saturday at 10 a.m. and learn
all the ins and outs of this
gardening style.
At the heart of the organic gardening movement
is the acknowledgement that
a healthy soil will produce a
healthy plant and as long as
we focus on keeping our soil
healthy, we will have far less
insect and disease issues to
deal with and our crops will
actually be more nutritious.
Feed the soil and not the
plant.
A healthy soil consists
of a chemical, physical and
biological component. The
chemical part refers to the
nutrient content, the physical part refers to the structure
and texture as in sand, silt or
clay and organic material,
and the biological part refers to all those microscopic
critters that we can’t see but
we also can’t live without. It
is the biological component
that for the most part organic gardening is concerned
with.
We need to understand
that there is a close association between plants and soil
organisms. In the soil we can
find fungi, bacteria, protozoa
and arthropods to name a
few. The fungi colonize plant
roots and extend the root
system into the surrounding
soil. The relationship is beneficial because the plant enjoys improved nutrient and
water uptake, disease resistance and superior survival
and growth.
Here’s how it works. Mycorrhizal fungi attach themselves to plant roots and
increase the absorptive ability of roots 10-1000 times.
Mycorrhizae are capable of
releasing into the soil powerful chemicals that dissolve
hard to capture nutrients like
phosphorus and iron. Mycorrhizae also release antibiotics
into the soil that immobilize
and kill disease organisms,
and they increase the ability
of plants to take up water resulting in increased drought
tolerance. Mycorrhizal fungi
improve soil structure by releasing humic compounds
and organic “glues” that bind
soil particles into aggregates,
thus improving porosity.
Soils with poor porosity tend
to become waterlogged and
disease prone. As you can
see, these little guys do a tremendous job of keeping our
plants healthy and thriving.
The good news is that, as
gardeners, we can improve
the biological component of
our soils by adding compost
on a yearly basis and incorporating organic fertilizers
like E.B. Stone Organics that
have been fortified with the
addition of mycorrhizae.
Paying attention to the biological element of our soils
is just plain good stewardship. Healthy soils make for
healthy plants.
Whether we are growing
flowers and shrubs for our
landscaping enjoyment or
vegetables for our culinary
pleasure, we need to remember the critical role of soil
organisms. In this complex
environment we live in, it’s
the little things that make the
world go around. We’re just
along for the ride.

spot in our Organic Gardening class this coming Saturday.

Hungry plant invades M-PHS

Talk about an appetite for
destruction.
Marysville-Pilchuck High
School Drama Club presents
the hit musical “Little Shop
of Horrors” in the MPHS
auditorium April 24-26 and
May 1-3 at 7:30 p.m.
The show, which was also
made into a hit movie, is the
story of a poor young man
named Seymour Krelbourn,
an underappreciated worker
at a run-down flower shop
on Skid Row, who obtains a
mysterious alien plant that
develops a monstrous appetite. As he feeds the carnivorous plant, his own life begins to improve…but at what
cost?
The show was written by
Howard Ashman and Alan
Menken, the musical duo responsible for “The Little Mermaid”, “Aladdin” and “Beauty
and the Beast.” But unlike
their other works, “Little
Shop of Horrors” is not suitable for small children.
The cast for this show is a
mix of Marysville-Pilchuck
and Marysville Getchell students including Sebastian
LaRocque as Seymour, Hanna Rudd as Audrey, David
Brown as Orin, Atrayu Sweet
as Mushnik, Raven Paull as
Audrey II, Sheridan Hedman
as Chiffon, Sage Fairbanks as
Crystal and Jessica Hamilton
as Ronnette.

n The cast of “Little Shop of Horrors includes (from left to right) Sage Fairbanks, Sheridan Hedman, Jessica
Hamilton, Sebastian LaRocque and Hanna Rudd.
The Drama Club began
working on the show in the
middle of January and has
dedicated many hours to the
success of this challenging
musical.
“One of my favorite parts
about this show, aside from
watching my students grow
as actors, has been working
with the four different plant
puppets,” said Roy Klemensten, MP teacher and show
director. “They range in size
from a little foot-tall plant
that sits on a table to the
massively large plants that
sing and interact with the actors. I’ve developed a real appreciation of the art of puppetry from this show.”
Tickets, available at the
door, are $10 for adults and
$8 for students and seniors.

Thomas Durnell
Thomas P. Durnell 65, of
Arlington, WA, lost his life
in the Oso landslide Saturday, March
22, 2014.
The landslide completely destroyed the
home
he
shared with
his wife, Debbie who was not
at home when the event occurred.
He was born November
3, 1948, in Eugene, Oregon,
to James R. and Jane Ballard
Durnell.
He graduated from South
Eugene High School and
studied stagecraft at Lane
Community College.
After a brief stint in retail
sales he spent his career in
carpentry and woodworking. He worked constructing
sets for the Oregon Shakespeare Festival in Ashland,
Oregon; toured the U.S. with
1st Chamber Dance Company as stage manager, and
worked for theatres in Minneapolis, MN and Seattle,
WA as well as television station KCTS in Seattle.
He finished his career
with nearly 20 years as a
member of Central Puget
Sound Carpenters Local 30,
most of them working for
Surgent Inc. of Woodinville
and Redmond, WA. He retired in 2010.
In 2010 he married the
former Debbie Nelson. They
lived briefly in Snohomish
before moving to the house
on Steelhead Drive.
He was a stepfather to
five children and a delighted
and beloved grandfather to
seven.
To quote from his Facebook page: “I have three
daughters and two sons and
while my investment in them
is in love and wisdom rather
than genetics, that suits me
just fine.”
Although his musical
tastes were eclectic, Tom was
a serious collector of western
swing and “roots” country
music in particular and was
well respected in music circles for his deep knowledge
of those genres.
His indexed and digitized collection of more than
10,000 recorded songs going
back as far as the 1920s, is
part of his legacy to his fellow aficionados.
A memorial fund has
been set up to benefit Debbie at http://www.gofundme.
com/7ypl4o.
A private memorial service will occur on May 3rd.

n LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Sadness gives way to hope
by Beckye Randall,
Co-Publisher/Editor
Horror stories of human trafficking
It was somehow appropriate that
last week’s forum on human sex trafficking took place against the backdrop
of Marysville-Pilchuck’s play, “Little
Shop of Horrors.” For minors caught up
in the web of the sex trade, it must indeed seem like they’re living in a world
of horrors.
Peter Teske, a detective with the
Snohomish County Sheriff ’s office,
noted that “people think sex trafficking
means foreign girls in shipping containers, or the menacing driver of that
white, windowless van who abducts
people off street corners.”
That’s not the true picture, as those
in attendance at the Tuesday night
meeting learned. Most of the time, the
young purveyors are not being held
against their will. But it doesn’t mean
that the minors who are involved with
the sex trade—prostitution, pornography or stripping—are any less victims.
In fact, as several panelists pointed
out, it’s not necessary to prove force,
fraud or coercion to prosecute those
who take advantage of minors in this
underground industry. Under the law,
minors can’t consent to sexual activities.
The statistics are chilling. According to the National Center for Missing
and Exploited Children, 100,000 American children are victimized every year.
The average age of entry into the dark
world of the sex trade is 12 to 14 years
old.
Here in Snohomish County, 43 juveniles were identified as trafficking last
year, according to Teske.
One of the big problems in combating the problem is that many mi-
nors engaged in prostitution don’t think
of themselves as victims. They think their
pimp is their boyfriend, and they don’t
seek help.
Cocoon House is reaching out to atrisk teens, offering safe shelter, counseling, employment and education help, and
a second chance. From the nonprofit’s
traditional shelters, which serve 13- to
17-year-olds, to “drop-in centers,” a teen
mom home in Arlington, and transitional housing for those up to age 18, Cocoon House is helping many Snohomish
County teens find an alternative to life on
the streets or under the “protection” of a
pimp.
Editor,
I’m sure I speak for everyone in our area, and
across the country, who
have watched with growing sadness as the number of mudslide victims
climbs. What an inconceivable tragedy for all
concerned, and for the
communities that are connected via that now impassable highway. Recovery will be a long, hard
road.
But I’ve also been
buoyed by the response
of our small communities. People of ordinary
means have stepped up
in so many different ways
to support the grieving
families, those who were
displaced by the slide, and
all the hundreds of workers who are toiling in that
hellish landscape to bring
closure.
Beyond the significant cash donations, folks
have contributed clothing,
household goods, furniture, vehicles and more.
In fact, the response to
need was so fast and widespread, these contributions quickly outpaced the
ability to distribute and
store hard goods.
Gas cards have helped
Darrington residents offset the additional costs of
commuting around the
closed highway, even if
that hasn’t helped mitigate
the extra hours.
We expect the Red
Cross to step up in an
emergency like this, but
it’s been gratifying to see
our own local hospital,
Cascade Valley, become
leaders in the effort to collect and disburse monetary donations without
taking a “cut” for administrative costs.
All around us, we’re reminded daily of the ongoing grief that grips local
families, neighbors and
friends. But as the yellow
ribbons indicate, hope
persists.
Oso strong. And Arlington and Darrington
strong.
Bob Petrie
Arlington
Cocoon House is also partnering
with several other agencies for the “Safe
Place” program, with bus drivers trained
to respond to teens who see the yellow diamond logos and ask for help.
“We’ve received 80 calls since November,” said Julio Cortez of Cocoon House.
Paula Newman-Skomski of the Sexual
Exploitation and Intervention Network, is
working to establish Peoria Home, which
will house a two-year residential recovery
program for women who have been victimized and exploited through sex trafficking and prostitution.
Snohomish County is fortunate to
have some resources for these “throwaway” kids. Teske is the only full-time
investigator assigned to sex trafficking in
the state. Even after a federal grant for his
position ran out, Sheriff Ty Trenary recognized the need and arranged to fund
the position.
“This is not the rest of the world’s
problem,” Teske told the assembled crowd.
“It’s not Seattle’s problem. It’s on our doorstep.”

sources has deferred a timber
sale located approximately
five miles southwest of the

additional review to ensure
there is no public safety risk.
“In light of what the communities surrounding Oso
have endured, I’ve directed
department staff to review all
the information on this nearby timber sale before moving
forward,” said Commissioner
of Public Lands Peter Goldmark. “It is prudent for us to
take another look and reconfirm that this sale is properly
configured.”
The 188-acre timber sale,
known as Riley Rotor, was
scheduled for auction on
April 23, 2014.
Outlook Staff
Reports of potential scams
involving the local utility company have prompted
PUD of Snohomish County
to remind its customers to
safeguard their financial and
personal information.
According to company
spokesman Neil Neroutsos,
the PUD is aware of potential
scams that aim to steal customers’ identity and bill payment information. Criminals
use various means of solicitation, including in-person visits, social media, fliers, phone
calls and text messages.
Recent ploys have tried
to lure both residential and
business customers. The
scammer may claim the cus-

If customers receive a suspicious phone call claiming

should call PUD Customer
Service at 425-783-1000 to
verify the information they
were given. The representative can verify whether or
not the call was legitimate.

assistance. Customers are
typically asked for personal
information, such as Social Security identification
or credit card numbers. The
caller may provide victims
with a fraudulent bank routing number with which to
pay their utility bills.
Customers who receive a
phone call asking for financial information related to
their bill should never provide this information, Neroutsos noted. The PUD never
calls customers to collect
credit card information over
the phone. The only time a
credit card number is taken
over the phone is through a
third-party bill payment service. In this case, the phone
call and payment is initiated
by the customer by calling

iron steak
with rosemary mustard butter, sautéed hedgehog mushrooms, and roasted grape
tomatoes. It is easy to prepare and layered with great
flavors.
This recipe uses one of
my favorite ingredients, local wild mushrooms. I enjoy
their earthy characteristics
and you can switch them up
based on what is in season.
The rosemary butter
works well with any cut of
steak or chicken. The perfect
accompaniment is roasted or
mashed potatoes, but a nice
risotto or rice also works.
Light up the BBQ and
have some fun with it!
