UPDATE: Longview Parks and Recreation has granted WHAS matching funds to install the two signs at Lake Sacajawea Park. Once the signs are installed you will read it here first. Thank you all for your support.
We are moving steadily towards the reality of avian interpretive signage for Lake Sacajawea in Longview.
WHAS applied for, and was fortunate to receive, both a National Audubon Grant (chosen by Audubon Washington) of $530, and a Longview City Tourism Grant of $500. An application has been submitted for matching funds grant from Longview Parks and Recreation. Featuring local artists, the signs will be a beautiful tribute as well as an educational and recreational enhancement to the park, which is a site on “The Great Washington State Birding Trail.”
Grateful thanks to the many of you who have contributed towards this wonderful project. For those who wish to help, we are still accepting donations by mail to WHAS at PO Box 399, Longview, WA 8632. Please feel free to call 360-575-9238 or email
