The East Houseless Task Force is hosting a volunteer cleanup of Ekone Park in Goldendale on Saturday, May 11. The event begins at 9:00 a.m. and ends at noon, everyone is invited to participate.

Phil Johnson of White Salmon left the corporate world twenty-two years ago. For a while, he worked as a handyman, but these days he mostly builds houses for Columbia Gorge Habitat for Humanity. The volunteer said he gets as much back as he puts in.

"We cannot stress enough how grateful we are to all the volunteers who have come out for Clear the Cans events this year," said Steve Drynan, Executive Director of Home at Last Humane Society. "We need our entire community to come together to help keep this shelter funded and provide high-quality animal management services to our region."

Recycling cans and bottles may not be the most glamorous work. Especially when you lift a garbage bag full into a truck and the accumulated liquid of old beer soda, and who knows what, leaks down your arm or hits you in the face. But, darn, if it doesn’t pay well for our furry friends

The Volunteer Association of the Mosier Fire Department donated two Automatic External Defibrillators (AEDs) to the Mosier community on Monday. One will be located at the Senior Center and the other at Breanna’s Mosier Market.
