Here's a photo of Annette Vochatzer Harter and Keith that I took recently at a Camp Kirby event. The S-W Rotary Club refreshed Bluebird Lodge at camp and named it for Fred Vochatzer who has given so many years of service to Camp Fire.

The Eagles are in town!
“When thou seest an eagle, thou seest
a portion of genius; lift up thy head!”
William Blake, The Marriage of Heaven and Hell
In 1976, the Nature Conservancy and the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife created the Skagit River Bald Eagle Natural Area. In winter, bald eagles now gather by the hundreds to feed on returning salmon. This project includes another six landowning partners and has preserved more than 9,000 acres of eagle habitat, including more than 10 miles of river and thousands of acres of forests. About 1,300 acres are owned and managed by the Nature Conservancy. www.nature.org

Sedro-Woolley City Hall
If you haven't visited Sedro-Woolley for a while, you may not realize that we built a beautiful new "city hall" on north Metcalf Street (due north of downtown). As a municipal center, it houses the police department, fire department, courts, and city administrative functions. It's near the old ball park where we used to have the carnival at Loggerodeo time.
The old city hall on Murdock, across from the museum, has been purchased by Janicki Industries for future use. They have strong community ties and will use the old building to its best advantage.
