Don't Let Summer Slip Away Without Having Some Fun!

 

     If you're starting to feel that summer is nearly finished and you haven't even started with it, don't despair!  Make a point of going to Squirrel Fest (see article below), or take a ride up to the volcano and check out the changes at the Johnston Ridge Visitor's Center.

 

     Also, don't forget to join us in supporting the Cowlitz/Wahkiakum County Relay for Life on August 11th and 12th.  If you haven't attended before, this is a great event to raise funds to facilitate finding a cure for cancer -- and it's a fabulous community celebration!  We hope to see you there!

 

Enjoy!
