Celebrating the Fourth with fireworks

Fireworks are currently being sold at booths throughout the Camas-Washougal area. Proceeds from several of the stands benefit local groups, including non-profit organizations, churches and schools.

According to Treasurer Steve Haunreiter, the Camas Lions Club has been selling fireworks for more than 25 years. They started out operating a small booth at Westlie Ford, later expanding into a tent at Safeway, 800 N.E. Third Ave., which is its present location.
