Glacier Peak Shows Skill No. 25 - Jack Bonner, a 6' 3" Glacier Peak Sophomore, showed why you don't put open floor between him and the hoop on Friday night's game against Lynnwood. The beautiful new Glacier Peak gym was full of parents and students but also some eager young faces from across the street. In a fabulous move by the Grizzlies Basketball Team, they went out to the local elementary schools and invited the kids to Friday night's game. Over a hundred showed up, many from across the street attending Little Cedars Elementary. The Grizzlies won 62-45. |

| 1869 Isaac Cathcart comes to Snohomish Isaac Cathcart emigrated from Ireland to Michigan when he was quite young. He came to Snohomish in 1869 and worked as a chopper in a logging camp. By 1872 he had earned enough to erect the Snohomish Exchange Hotel, a large, two story building costing $6,300. He made it a first class hotel and ran it for sixteen years. |
| 1876 Isaac Cathcart is Married On August 9, 1876, Isaac Cathcart and Miss Julia J. Johns were married in Seattle. There was a "free social" at the Exchange "for all friends and patrons". The town and countryside accepted this invitationen masse. Crowds greeted the bridal couple. There was a dinner and then dancing. This was noted to be the greatest wedding celebration in Snohomish's history! |
| 1877 The Bicycle Tree A landmark south of Snohomish that became very popular in the late 1800's was a large cedar tree measuring 48 feet in circumference. When the bicycle became so very popular, a path was made that ran parallel to the road to ride on. The cyclists hired a logger, by the name of Milligan to cut an arch through the tree, for the sum of $15. The arch was 12 feet high and 5 feet wide. |
