Citizens living within Washougal School District boundaries have a unique opportunity to get involved in planning the district's future.
The Camas-Washougal Chamber of Commerce has selected an accomplished group of honorees this year as part of its annual awards.
What began nearly a decade ago simply as a First Friday Art Walk, has slowly been transformed into an event that appeals to people of all ages and interests and draws crowds to downtown Camas.
The daily ringing of the paper mill's Westminster chimes will have special meaning when they echo through downtown Camas on Saturday.
Today marked the first official campaign announcement made by a Camas-Washougal elected official about their intentions to run for re-election this year.

According to the Clark County Arts Commission, "The arts hold the power to inspire and enlighten. They influence the economy by creating jobs and ancillary services, stimulating tourism and raising tax revenues. The interdependence of artists supporting local businesses that have supported them is a win-win situation."
