Salvation Army prepares for expansion

The ministry leader for the Camas-Washougal Salvation Army says the organization expects to increase its social service offerings in the Camas-Washougal community once the Salvation Army’s new structures are in place.

“With the new building, we are anticipating an immediate 30-percent increase in services offered from this location,” said Pastor Samantha Wheeler, who celebrated with a crowd of about 50 people Tuesday during a groundbreaking ceremony at the Salvation Army’s (soon-to-be) new and improved site.
