The following stories happened this week, 25 and 50 years ago, as reported in the Snoqualmie Valley Record. From the Record’s archives:

Thurs., June 21, 1990

• It has been close to three years since Snoqualmie won a federal grant to extend sewer and water lines to its Snoqualmie Winery property. But the money was contingent on plans to open up a substantial number of local jobs. That hasn’t happened and there may be a penalty. On June 11, the city council declared the 137-acre property “surplus to the current and foreseeable future needs of the city for public purposes.” The city now sees it would be in the public interest to dispose of the acreage, by sale or lease.

• The Fall City Little League Dodgers ended the 1990 season with a brilliant two-hit shutout victory over the rival Fall City Tigers. Jayme Platt went the distance, striking out eight and giving up just the two hits.

Thurs., June 24, 1965

• North Bend’s annual gala —parade and Riding Club Gymkhana — is set for this Saturday, June 26. Miss Cathy Taft, Queen of the Snoqualmie Valley Riding Club Jamboree, and her two princesses, Miss Sandy Hurn and Miss Becky Longecker will begin their royal reign at 11 a.m. as they lead off the parade, which will swing through North Bend along Highway 10. The third annual rubber raft race, sponsored by the Jaycess, will start immediately following the parade, at the Edgewick Road Bridge.

• Maintenance of streets was the No. 1 complaint of North Bend residents who responded to the questionnaire sent out by the Snoqualmie Valley Junior Chamber of Commerce a few months ago. Seventy-six percent of the people replying said street conditions were “inadequate.” The No. 2 target was sidewalks, with 69 percent labeling sidewalks “inadequate.” Other leading complaints were traffic regulation, 67 percent, and public restrooms in business district, 59 percent.
