Remembering ‘Grandma Veda’

Veda Grace Frothinger Lanz was the third of 12 children born to a farming family in South Dakota. The number of kids was not at all unusual for the early 20th century, especially in a rural area. What was eyebrow raising was that there were four sets of twins among the 12. At one point, there were eight children, all 5 years of age and younger, living in the small home of George and Ella Frothinger. This was in a time before washing machines, dishwashers, microwaves, disposable diapers, grocery stores, and for many, electricity.

CHS boys basketall team is making it count

Washougal fought back to within four points going into the fourth quarter Friday at Camas High School, before the Papermakers pulled away for a 74-54 victory. "I love the support we got from both communities. It made the game a lot of fun," said Camas head coach Skyler Gillispie. "Both teams came out and played extremely hard."

The Opera House got an enthusiastic welcome from the crowd that gathered at Coffee Revolution in Camas on April 9.  It was the first time the band had performed at the local venue. Band members include Quincy Blanchette (pictured above at right), as well as base player and lead singer, Nate Morse, guitar and backup vocals, Emma Jennings, keyboard and Allison Trenary, drums. Morse said he enjoyed the Camas show.  "It was pretty great as a venue," he said.  "We were glad we were able to play there." The band, whose members hail from Vancouver and Woodland, plays primarily original music.

A positive alternative

Anyone who wants to see a live rock show and lives in the Camas-Washougal area knows the routine: Drive all the way into Portland, attempt to find free parking somewhere, and walk several blocks into sometimes sketchy venues. However, employees at Coffee Revolution, a non-profit business that donates a majority of its proceeds to the community, have come up with another solution.
