If you have interest in learning about cameras and photography, a new class will start on April 6, 10 a.m. to noon. It is open to the public and will be an ongoing class...

Beau Carlson is back, and last Wednesday he proved that he was ready to play when he knocked the ball out of the park for a two run homer in his first at bat in the Wahkiakum Mules baseball team's season opener against Ilwaco. What went even farther than that ball was the ripple of good feelings as a community celebrated Carlson's display of health and strength.
