The First Lap Blanket of 2026

No Permits for For Park Use
Dear City Council Member, I just read that the Longview City Council is considering requiring all use of the park at the Civic Circle to require a permit. I am appalled. I have lived in Longview, Washington all my life and lived at The Monticello for a few years and...

The world was different when The United States was created. Character was more important to most people; I still aspire to know people of good character and to be a person of high integrity but as a society we have become confused so I have to actually say I don’t...
