City Scene February 2017 Police present anti-bullying program in schools, community School resource officers – Marysville Police officers who regularly work in our middle, junior high and high schools – deal with many different issues. You might be surprised: they say bullying and harassment is the biggest issue that our youth face at school, at home and in the workplace. You’re invited to learn more at a community event Feb. 23. Guest speakers are Marc Mero, former WWE and WCE pro wrestler and founder of Champion of Choices, and Amy Briggs, a mother and school teacher who lost her son due to bullying. Their powerful message includes suicide prevention. Admission is free. Anti-bullying assemblies will take place at all Marysville secondary schools Feb. 21-23. The Marysville Police Department thanks generous community members for donations that funded this important program. Your city parks beckon: take a winter walk Getting exercise might seem more difficult this time of year, but experts say the benefits are worth it. The Mayo Clinic recommends: “Get outside. Take a long walk, eat lunch at a nearby park, or simply sit on a bench and soak up the sun. “Even on cold or cloudy days, outdoor light can help — especially if you spend some time outside within two hours of getting up in the morning.” Marysville Parks offer something for everyone – from small neighborhood parks to longer nature walks.
