The Stillaguamish Tribe and the city of Arlington are planning the first Arlington Eagle Festival to honor the eagles who hover around this community through the year, and especially in the winter, searching for food from the Stillaguamish River. The chair of the organizing committee, the city’s economic development manager Vic Ericson, said the idea popped up at a downtown merchants meeting about this time last year, but it was too late to launch a new event so they tabled it until this year. The event is set for the first Saturday in February in City Council Chambers. A wildlife biologist and member of the Stillaguamish Tribe, Jen Sevigny represents the tribe on the committee and her father, Bill Neat, has designed a logo depicting a beautiful young eagle in Native American style.
