• Significant timber harvest reductions is a key feature of the new Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest Plan. The document was released by the U.S. Forest Service after more than a decade of planning and public involvement, according to Doug MacWilliams, forest supervisor. “In response to public concerns and the forest’s resource capability, this planning direction will result in continued sustained timber production but at reduced levels, and greater protection for old-growth trees, water quality, fish and wildlife habitat and scenic values,”MacWilliams said.

• Among the participants in the Portland Rose Festival Grand Floral Parade on June 9 was Kevin Hauglie of Fall City. Because he has earned a fourth place in the state in production for the Farmers Insurance group, combined with his community service, Hauglie was chosen to represent Washington on the Farmers’ float, one of 25 in the parade.
