The Steering Committee for a proposed regional sports complex within the Wenatchee Valley met with their consulting firm for the first time on May 5.

I asked a few people a while back, "You know you live in Chelan County, Washington when..." and some of the answers were pretty comical yet very true! Here's what they said.

Enjoy life and all the things you never knew you were capable of and allow yourself to perfect your "craft." Take chances, color outside the lines.

The Chelan Douglas Port Authority was asked to organize a feasibility study on a sports complex after interest sprang from local governments.

Businesses that win “World’s Best” are highlighted by the local people who have taken the time to vote for their favorite gift shop, chiropractor, toy store, and even, Best Radio Station. Banners get made for the different winners, and “bragging rights” (humbly of course). Remember this is a vote by the people, making it highly respectable, and helps highlight companies that just plain rock. Just to be nominated is a really cool feeling. It’s like, “Hey! Someone noticed us!”

Volunteers are being asked to bring their own reusable trash bags to help clean up trash at the main beach near downtown Chelan, as well as two other high traffic beach areas.

Members of a group of local governments and organizations took turns speaking in favor of the measure Tuesday.

Long gone are the days of the average person getting their photo film printed. We have all just dove into the phone pictures, digital pictures to be uploaded to a computer, to even photographers have a “cd” of photos as an option to purchase. But what happens when you want to get an actual photo printed and put into a frame?! Where can we go to locally? If you are like me, when I get photos printed, I want them NOW. Haha No, I don’t want to wait for the photos to be shipped to me.

Since I was a little girl, I have ridden down Highway 97 between Brewster and East Wenatchee. I could almost do the drive with my eyes closed, but I won’t because, well I do value life. But one question I have never been able to answer, until now. How many fruit stands are there between Beebe Bridge on Highway 97 to East Wenatchee? Plenty of orchards and fruit, and plenty of fruit stands!
