Washougal school gets new playground cover

Cape Horn-Skye Elementary School’s Booster Club has spent two years raising money for a new playground cover, and now they’ve finally reached their goal.

The new cover will be ready for this coming fall, by Sept. 1, according to Tammy Connolly, the Booster Club president. The club, made up of current students’ parents, originally thought it would take five years to raise the money, but parents were surprised at the school’s and community’s support.
