In one short month, ballots for the General Election will be due. During the next 30-or-so days, many voters will be trying to absorb all of the information and details about candidates’ backgrounds, opinions and goals that they possibly can.

It’s the third week in August, and if you’re a parent or spend any time around kids it’s that time of year when the anticipation for the start of the new school year, which is right around the corner, officially begins.
There are so many teachers, administrators and classified staff who are making a difference for children in our schools in Camas and Washougal.
