4 community bulletin board september3 2015 Readers Lend Their Voices... To the Editor, I would like to let Banks residents know that they can now listen to Braves HS athletics on mixlr.com/ banksbraves Mixlr is a free app that can be downloaded to any iPhone or Android device. I have 10 years broadcasting experience from Lincoln County. At this time I am not set up as a fully incorporated business, but I am willing to offer free advertising to interested businesses willing to try me out for a trial year, until I become a legal operating business. I may consider covering Logger athletics as well when that occurs. Anyone seeking more information can reach me at 971-330- 8122. Thank you.

ES PRIZ Saturday, September 12 - 6:00 pm Snacks available for purchase Must be 21 years old to play Columbia Humane Society Featured Pet Meet Crash I came to the shelter after I had been run over by a car and left on the side of the road. I had very bad road rash on my back leg that required vet attention and a lot of antibiotics. I am now healed and ready to go to that new forever home that I can claim as my own. I growl a little at other cats, but once I get used to them I get over it. Please don't hesitate to stop in and see me today. The shelter estimates that I am around 3 years old. I am neutered and current on my vaccines. Web: www.columbiahumane.org Phone: 503-397-4353 2084 Oregon Street Email: animalwelfare@columbiahumane.org St. Helens, OR 97051 Do You Need Help?
