I am writing this letter to encourage Camas residents to show their support for the upcoming Camas School District replacement levies on Feb. 12.

Proud of WHS students I attended the Washougal High School Holiday Bazaar Nov. 17. It was great to see the different student groups participating.

It was a great time shopping.

Support Adrian Cortes As Olympia becomes more partisan, now more than ever we need real problem solvers that can work with everyone.
Vick is a leader Over the course of the last decade I have had the pleasure of watching Brandon Vick grow into a man of good character and an exemplary leader.

Yes, "to establish Justice" is stated in our Constitution. Where is "justice" in a tax code that allows millionaires and corporations to pay a smaller percentage of federal income taxes than our working citizens?
Support Shehorn for state legislature In recent months, I have had the opportunity to become acquainted with David Shehorn, who is running for the State Legislature District 18 House seat.
CCIA would like to set the record straight Regarding Dawn Feldhaus's Sept. 11 article "Candidate's use of Grove Field parking lot generates complaints," which described 18th District Representative and candidate Liz Pike's use of the airport parking lot for her campaign fundraiser, CCIA would like to set the record straight.
