To The Eagle: When we chose Bill Wilkins to be our realtor, it changed our life. We had been looking for property in the Naselle area where we lived, and put Bill in charge of finding us the perfect home. We looked at many different properties, and during our jaunts Bill would talk about Wahkiakum County, it's history, and it's people. His love of this place and the people here really came across and we found ourselves looking for property here as well. Bill did find us the perfect home, here in Cathlamet, and it's all Bill said it was and...

I hope the Cathlamet Town Council won't rush into a decision to locate a food bank building in Erickson Park. There is no doubt food banks are needed. With the decline on governmental spending on social services, volunteer organizations have a steadily growing demand for food. They need good, secure facilities to store and distribute food, and the Helping Hands Food Bank doesn't have that. While I like the idea that municipal government, or county or school district, might have land for food a bank, I'm not sure the park is the best idea. I've...

Heading to the marina from downtown Cathlamet, one might stroll down Butler Street and come across Jim Kolberg’s home and the little free library that adorns his front yard. It all started for Kolberg one night in early March. “I was watching the NBC nightly news and a story came on about a Wisconsin man. He wanted to honor his mother, a former teacher and book lover, who had passed away. He built a miniature model of a library, filled it with books for anyone to take, and placed it outside his home. “People really liked the idea and so this gu...
The state Board of Natural Resources approved Tuesday the transfer of 67 acres of State Forest Trust land in Wahkiakum County to conservation status. It is the first transaction under a legislatively funded program created in 2009 to replace certain state-owned working forestlands encumbered by federal endangered species restrictions. The program targets small, economically stressed rural counties--Klickitat, Pacific, Skamania and Wahkiakum--that depend heavily on timber revenue to support public services. An appropriation by the 2011...
To The Eagle: I'm writing this letter because I'm completely baffled by the choice the high school has made on who was hired as the new principal. Someone should explain how they could pass up John Hannah who has worked with this age group for years, and has the credentials, the demeanor and knowledge to diffuse situations that can arise with high school age kids. How can you bring in someone who has never worked with that age group over the experience that Hannah has? I currently have a child in the high school and have two others who have...
To The Eagle: The link included at the end of this letter will take you to an interesting short article by a national authority on parks and recreation's views on the importance - even necessity - of re-inventing our parks to meet the changing needs of our people. Jim Reed's 5-23-2012 nine-page commentary addressed to Mayor Wehrfritz, and The Eagle challenges the notion of placing a food bank in a municipal park. He mentions Bay Area parks with more acreage than the entire Town of Cathlamet as models of greenspace. He dismisses "assertions"...
To The Eagle: James Reed’s letter to The Wahkiakum Eagle of last week (5/31) projects some misleading notions about what is being proposed for a facility at Erickson Park. As architectural advisor to the Helping Hand Food Bank, I was asked to initiate a discussion about increasing use of an under-used Erickson Park with a semi-permanent location for a facility to house both of our local food banks and incorporate a demonstration kitchen sponsored by the Washington State University Extension office in Wahkiakum County. We did not propose “a 2,0...

What a great week-end for the Dollars for Scholars events! With rain showers all week and a pretty wet day on Friday we were all very happy when the sun came out and continued to shine all Saturday afternoon. Spectators enjoyed a beautiful assortment of cars and trucks at the Rods and Reels Rod Run Show. Many bright colored flashy cars, a few high performance fast cars, plus a large group of antique cars and trucks were lined up in the fairgrounds park. Many big sturgeon were brought in to be measured for the Sturgeon Derby. There were numerous...
SO-SO--The big Memorial weekend has come to an end and while it wasn't a total bust for weather, it could have been better. While some were enjoying sunshine on Saturday, most of us here in Skamokawa were stuck in sea fog and windy conditions, which meant it was a bit nippy, especially for those on the beach. On Sunday things were a little warmer but still mostly cloudy, while Monday morning saw us with wet roads at first, but then it dried out enough to mow the lawn. Last week we had an unusual day with quite a bit of thunder, and it really...
