Camas, Washougal swing into holiday mode

The holiday season may look a little different this year during the COVID-19 pandemic, with the cancellation of events like Camas’ traditional Hometown Holidays and Washougal’s Lighted Christmas Parade, but there are still plenty of season’s greetings to be found in the cities’ downtown shopping districts.

Last weekend, Santa showed up in downtown Washougal to greet families at a drive-thru holiday event. Washougal Mayor Molly Coston was on hand, too, and was overheard asking Santa for world peace and good health this year.
