A hidden treasure

Vern and Faye Schanilec describe the Washougal River Greenway Trail as one of the "hidden treasures of Camas." The Schanilecs walk the trail often, and Vern provided assistance with an Eagle Scout project that resulted in the planting of 12 red leaf maple trees along one portion of the walkway.
