The Wahkiakum Mule boys are looking to put a rough regular season behind them as they open district play this Thursday (tonight) against the Toutle Lake Ducks in Castle Rock at 6:30 p.m. Unlike previous seasons, a district seed was not automatically given to the Mules; rather they had to earn it by way of a play-in game, the Mules’ third game in five days. The three-game stretch began with senior night on Thursday versus the Pe Ell Trojans. In a game that was back and forth for much of it, the Mules ultimately came out on top with a m...

By state law, the funds can only be used on capital projects. Last year, county commissioners formed a committee to collect and evaluate applications for capital projects. Members included citizens Bob Hake, Lori Scott and Tony Aegerter and three county...
