The next "To the Point" newsletter will be published April 1.

It's that time again...Time to clean up your yard, your basement and the old storage shed out back. The Annual Clean Up will be held only one day again this year, April 13, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. located at the Lyle School Bus Barn, corner of Highway 14 and 5th St. We will be getting only two 40 yard dumpsters this year so be sure to come early.

Cancer has affected everyone, one way or another and a way of fighting this deadly disease is by joining Relay For Life. It is a celebration of survivorship -- an occasion to express hope and a shared goal to end the disease that threatens the lives of so many people we love. You can get involved with your local Relay For Life event. Klickitat County is having its team kick-off next month, on April 11, at 6 pm, at Goldendale Middle School. There will be food/fun/prizes and if you sign up a team by April 11 you will receive $75 off, so sign up at: www.relayforlife.org/klickitatcountywa. Tracy Gladden, Team Developer, can be reached at 509-261-1191 or gladdentracy@yahoo.com

A fellow card player got a phone message Monday night, the 11, that the cougar had just been seen up around Balch Rd. near one of the wineries. Isn't it supposed to be rare to spot a wild cougar? This one, if the same one...has been spotted by at least three people in the past few months.
