Lifelong Washougal resident Norm Paulson has been named the 2013 Citizen of the Year by the Camas-Washougal Chamber of Commerce. Paulson, who is a partner at a Camas accounting firm, has contributed his time to a number of local organizations over the years including Rotary, the Washougal Schools Foundation, American Field Service and school music programs. "We are so fortunate that he is willing to step up and help so many organizations within our community," said Jennifer McDaniel, who served with Paulson on the Washougal School District Advisory Committee.

When Norm Paulson was a teenager growing up in Washougal, he remembers getting pulled over by a police officer who gave him two options: The officer could write him a ticket or Paulson could tell his father what had happened.

At the time, Washougal had a population of just a few thousand people. Everybody, literally, knew everybody.
