The Wahkiakum County Fair Board would like to say thank you to the many bingo players who attended Turkey Bingo last Friday night. The winning card holders received a big turkey or a ham for their bingo. During one game, there were four bingos at the same time and Mike Backman, our number caller, had to call a bingo run-off to determine the winner. Now that’s intense bingo! We also had two games of black-out bingo; the winners were Samantha Wright and Kim Hedges. They both received a complete dinner plus a turkey. I suspect there will be some d...
Well, folks, we are now sitting on waterfront property once again. We could conceivably row straight across the field to the Covered Bridge but the current is such that it probably wouldn’t be such a good idea. Water is over the driveway to the tune of probably six feet and will go higher with the continuing rain, so we are in for a few days. The dogs love to go for walks in this weather as they pick the small critters out of the low branches of the trees, just like candy. The wind is especially unnerving today, and likely there will be some p...

To The Eagle: It is hard to make an informed decision on voting when we hear about Oregon candidates and issues and rarely about Washington. I found a great tool on the internet that helped me make informed voting decisions: www.tvw.org/2012-video-voters-guide, or you can go to the Washington State website: www.access.wa.gov and search for video voters pamphlet. Each candidate video taped a presentation. Gerry Brennan Cathlamet...

Wendt entrance starting November 5. It will be there until all children who need shoes have been provided for. Both girls and boys tennis shoes to fit first graders through eighth graders are...
To The Eagle: Several years ago, our economic development gurus attempted to rescue our ailing golf course by slicing off a chunk of it to build golf-oriented condo units. Seemed impractical and our small course certainly didn't need an amputation, but we curmudgeons being neither golf nor economic development experts, the project proceeded. A contractor agreed to build the golf palaces, but only if we provided the sewer line to hook 'em to. This didn't seem kosher but we weren't ethics experts either, so the project rolled on. A local diggin'...
To The Eagle: No one can build a sound economy using a fraudulent money system. I don't care if you are a Democrat, Republican or any other variety of politician or official trying to do so will not work. The proof is right before your very eyes. The debt will not get smaller, the deficit will not go away, things will not get better. Even if you are the most gifted economist in the world, you will not be able to build a sound economy using unsound money. My message is simply this: it will not matter at all who we elect to any office if we do...
To The Eagle: A major thank you to The Eagle and to the Hanigan Law Office and Wahkiakum Title & Escrow for bringing us a quality weekly crossword and Sudoku puzzle. Now hanging with The Eagle lasts twice as long. Might I add, as a suggestion, do not print the answers to the puzzles on the same page as it makes cheating way too easy! Thanks!
