Hallead era ends

After bleeding Papermaker red for 15 years, Joe Hallead said the time has come to ride his Harley off into the sunset. He and his wife bought a condo near Las Vegas, where she has a high paying job. As Hallead searches for the next teaching and coaching opportunity, he knows there will be no place like Camas. "It's impossible for me not to continue to be a Papermaker," Hallead said. "I've put every ounce of effort into teaching, coaching and making this community a better place. It's all I've ever known. "This will leave a hole in my heart, but I'm taking lots of great stories with me."
