When Joe Webster set out to open an outdoor barbecue restaurant on his Washougal property, he thought he had everything ready to go.
By the end of the day on Thursday, July 29, the informational sign boards that lined the interior of the Washougal Town Square were covered with a variety of brightly-colored Post-it notes containing a variety of handwritten comments about what local residents would like to see in Washougal’s future library.
The Camas softball team got back on the winning side of life Monday, with a 2-1 victory at Skyview. Harli Hubbard allowed one unearned run for the Papermakers and gained 11 strikeouts. Freshman call up Alli Hancock went 2-for-3 at the plate with a double and drove in the first run for Camas in the top of the second inning. Tori O'Neil added a fielder's choice RBI in the same inning.
A man who went skydiving for his senior project at Washougal High School has opened a shop that appeals to fellow adventurers in his hometown. Eric Hargrave, a 2003 WHS graduate, wrote his senior paper about the psychology of doing extreme sports. In addition to skydiving, he went kite boarding and snowboarding. The project included videotaped evidence of Hargrave's accomplishments. Hargrave owns Limitless Snow-Wake-Surf -- a two-year-old former home-based business -- that sells a variety of Ronix wake boards, Radar waterskis and apparel. A shipment of snow boards, bindings, boots and helmets, along with gloves, hats, socks, hoodies and T-shirts, is expected to arrive this week.
