Dumpster Day for neighbors

The South Forest Park Neighborhood Association offers its second Dumpster Day of the year at 9 a.m. today in the parking lot of Zion Lutheran Church, 4634 S. Alger Ave., Everett.

All residents of the neighborhood are invited to bring household and yard waste to the event, though hazardous wastes, appliances, tires, televisions, computers, paints or chemicals will not be accepted.

Only four dumpsters will be available. There is limited transportation for residents without means to haul their waste. For more information, call Norm Nunnally at 425-252-5911 or Bill Higley at 425-252-4276.

Rotary members grab their rakes

The Everett Downtown Rotary Club will give Jetty Island a needed cleanup today.

More than 35 Rotarians, their friends and families, and more than 100 high school students from Cascade and Archbishop Murphy high schools plan to spend this morning picking up trash and beautifying the two-mile-long, man-made island.

The group will pick up trash that washes up on shore and cut back Scotch broom to keep it away from native plants.

Learn about WWII in the Northwest

Land surveyor LeRoy Middleton will present “World War II in the Pacific Northwest” at 2 p.m. Sunday at the Everett Library, 2702 Hoyt Ave., Everett.

The Snohomish County Museum and Historical Association sponsors the presentation. Middleton will discuss efforts to protect the Pacific Northwest home front during World War II.

The program is free, and refreshments will be served.

Corrections

* Kim Halvorson of Marysville, a candidate for state representative, was arrested by a State Patrol trooper at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport in 1988 for having a suspended driver’s license and two traffic offenses after she cut him off while the two were merging in traffic. Information about the state where the incident occurred and details of the traffic incident with the trooper were incorrect in a story Oct. 15 on Page B2.

* Roselie Rasmussen of Darrington will be working without pay, but will get her room, board, airfare and gear provided when she spends the next four months working in Antarctica for Ratheon Polar Services Co. A headline on Page B1 Saturday oversimplified the arrangement.
