Snowden Community Group 1 day, 11 hours agoHey Neighbors,
I have a Kenmore upright freezer free for the taking. It works but the alarm goes off now and then so probably needs a thermometer or…
Also have a treadmill that works but does not elevate – again probably a simple fix for someone who is handy.
come and get them!

Snowden Community Group 1 day, 15 hours agoWhat does everyone think about putting up a ”Welcome to Snowden” sign. I’ve found a couple who have a good visibility location at 254 Snowden who wouldn’t mind such a sign in their field.

I have a press list. If you send me the info I can send it out to my list. I’ll need it in something pretty close to a press release format. There are lots of online guides on press release formats. It’s pretty simple. Who, what, when, where, why. (maybe how) and all the important info in the first paragraph. That’s the essence of it.

Snowden Community Group 3 weeks, 3 days agoI was surprised to learn that HughesNet got $60 million under a federal Recovery Act program to provide “broadband” access to rural communities. Surprised because satellite service is not true broadband unless your definition is “better than dial-up.” The program has been declared a success because it created a few new jobs for installers and…[Read more]
-
Doing a little math here: The funding from taxpayers created 104 new jobs at Hughes. That is $576,347 per job. Did we get our money’s worth? I don’t think so.

Snowden Community Group 3 weeks, 4 days agoHas anyone tried the Exede satellite Internet service from ViaSat (which also owns WildBlue)? I am seeing a lot of reports online from people saying it is better than HughesNet and costs about the same. We have been thinking about upgrading our HughesNet service to the new Gen4 and have heard one good report from a neighbor who made the switch.…[Read more]

HighesNet Gen4 is 20x faster than what I had before. I’m getting 1mb/sec download and much slower upload. The latency is still a problem. But 20x faster is good. You’re more than welcome to come try it out. I’m at 1099 Snowden.

Tom and Jamie came over today. They worked hard and steadily cutting and burning a downed willow tree, mowing and weed eating my overgrown yard, and even got a tired old lawn mower running. They did not take breaks and worked steadily, got a lot done. If you need some work done, these are good kids and earned their money.

Well after some time of seeing signs that I couldn’t possible read from the car or truck I stopped and read the one at the start. It seems that the county is vacationing some parts of the road…[Read more]

Snowden Community Group 1 month, 2 weeks agoDoes anyone have a recommendation for a local dentist? I’m very happy with my current dentist, but ever since they merged with another few dentists it turned into a ”big business” and their staff seems highly trained to sell really expensive extras.
-
I still travel to White Salmon to my dentist Staci Hanson, who is young but good…She was not selling stuff when I was there in Jan.
-
Another dentist is Tim Middaugh who operates White Salmon Dental Care. Phone number is 493-4546.
-
Last time I was to Curtis Mathisen his office was most sensitive to holding down expenses. I loved it there….and he is a Snowden resdient.
-
Lance, that sounds like a good recommendation indeed. Thanks.

Hi Judy:
Look in ”Snowden Community Council” under Announcements…the subjects of the meeting was posted by Bob. I think he plans to do that in advance of each mtg.-
Thanks, Lois. I need to become more familiar with the site and check it more often. Nice seeing you on Tuesday. Perhaps we can go to Rattlesnake Falls again this spring when it’s better picnic weather and when Kalama returns from her adventure.

Hi, Judy,
In, addition, we’ll mention to Chair Louis Huszar about tthe agenda to see if he can get out an agenda earlier than the afternoon of the meeting. Most residents are probably more interested in the COMMUNITY FORUM topics and guests than the full agenda, though….and that you will find under announcements on the Snowden Council tab. …[Read more]-
Thanks for the additional info, Judy. The Community Forum topics are interesting, and we should keep in touch with other things that the Council is addressing as well. We do appreciate the efforts of the more active Council members and it would be good to get to know more of our neighbors. There certainly are more “Snowdenites” now than when we…[Read more]
