| We Remember Oso
Today marks five years since the Oso Landslide, the single deadliest landslide in US history. This day will be permanently etched in our minds and hearts as we remember the 43 lives lost. The landslide brought out the best of the people of the Stillaguamish Valley and spurred teamwork and partnerships that last to today. In honor of the lives lost, the survivors, families and friends left behind, and the first responders that worked tirelessly to bring the victims home, flags at all City of Arlington facilities will be flown at half-staff until sunset.

The tragic event is being marked with a memorial event at the slide location for families, friends, and first responders. As part of the memorial ceremonies, a 23-mile stretch of SR 530, between mileposts 22 and 45, is being renamed as the "Oso Slide Memorial Highway".
An effort to construct a permanent memorial is also underway. The memorial will commemorate and educate about the lives lost, a community destroyed, the first responders' and rescuers' heroic efforts, the grief and resilience of the survivors, and the geological event itself. More details about the memorial and how you can contribute are available at www.slidememorial.com.

Arbor Day Recognized With a Special Tree Planting With Arlington Kiwanis
|
|
|
George Boulton |
Arlington Kiwanis members will plant a flowering pink snowbell tree on Saturday, March 30th in memory of George Boulton. They are honoring George for his lifetime service in the Arlington Kiwanis Club. A tree memorial creates a lasting tribute and benefits the community.
|
|
|
'Marley's' Pink Japanese Snowbell |
Kiwanis selected the 'Marley's' Pink Japanese Snowbell because of its spring color corresponding to George's May birthday and because the tree is unique with its pink blossoms and "cotton candy" fragrance. "We think George would have loved the floral qualities of this tree." The tree will be planted on Saturday March 30th in the flower garden at the City Hall plaza.
March is a perfect time to plant trees; therefore, the City is declaring March 30th as Arbor Day in Arlington. Trees are a source of joy and increase the livability of our city. We urge all citizens to celebrate Arbor Day.
If you need any information about tree planting and care, visit the Arbor Day Foundation website. For questions about city regulations regarding trees, please call the City's Community and Economic Development Department at 360-403-3551.

Tell Us About Your Well-Being, Enter to Win a Bistro San Martin Gift Card
Do you feel connected to the Stillaguamish Valley community? Do you have access to the prevention resources you need? Are you getting appropriate health screenings? The City of Arlington along with some key community healthcare partners want to lead the way in understanding and improving well-being in the Stillaguamish Valley. We're inviting the whole community to participate in creating a well-being "northstar" for the region by taking a confidential online survey located at www.bit.ly/stillysurvey19.
Your participation will help us better understand the needs and desires of the people who live in the Stillaguamish Valley (zip codes 98241 and 98223), so community partners can respond accordingly. The project is funded and organized by Stilly Valley Health Connections and the Cascade Valley Health Foundation in collaboration with The Providence Institute for a Healthier Community.
You can take the confidential survey online by visiting www.bit.ly/stillysurvey19. You'll need 10-15 minutes to get through the questions, and it will be open through April 15th. The goal is to gather at least 500 community responses, but hopefully more. Participants who enter their email address and demographic information will be entered to win a $100 gift card to our beloved Bistro San Martin restaurant in downtown Arlington! Please note that your information will not be made public.
