The Little Bronze Girl, a 3-foot-tall metal statue of a child reading a book, has been a beloved part of downtown Camas since being installed on a bench at the corner of Northeast Fourth Avenue and Northeast Cedar Street in 2002.
“People really, really do care about her,” said Carrie Schulstad, the director of the Downtown Camas Association. “She has provided memories. She’s provided connections. She is so beloved in our community.”
