  • Hi All, The Posse Saddle Club is in need of someone to volenteer to do media work for this Playday season. That is to get word out of all our events and to get gaming events to the local papers and such. It would help to be computer, news, and radio savy. We need you to make sure all these riders (mostly kids) get their hard work and practice…[Read more]

    • We dabble in media in the Goldendale area. But you can do some free advertising by sending a note to Whats Happening in The Enterprise.. You can send the same thing to Y102/KLCK 1400am to info@haystackbroadcasting.com . If the saddle club has facebook, then there is more free advertising. Of course putting posters up helps. i see this is too late…[Read more]

  • Hey, Scott, if we can get another tab under the SNOWDEN COUNCIL for ”AGENDA”, I can post the agenda for tomorrow night’s meeting (May 7th).

  • The Community Forum tomorrow night (Tuesday, May 7th) at the Snowden Council meeting features representatives from the Klickitat County PUD. Its a good chance for you to ask those questions you’ve always wanted to ask. The Community Forum is one of the first things on the agenda with a start time of 7 PM. Stay for the rest of the meeting if…[Read more]

    Snowden Community Council tomorrow!!!! May 7 at 7:00 pm, Cherry Lane fire station. There will be a PUD presentation, so come on down!

  • I 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.

  • Dawn Stover posted an update in the group Group logoSnowden Community Group 3 weeks ago

    Has 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.

  • looking for weekend work hauling brush,woodcutting,etc have 2 strong boys to help also call 509-493-3542

    • 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.

  • Has anyone noticed or actually read the small yellow 8×11 signs staked into the beginning of Snowden Rd. and the end of the new lower part on the Road? 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]

    • My husband will be interviewing the Klickitat Co Commissioners again, this Tuesday, for his radio talk show, which will be aired on KLCK 1400am next Thursday 18th. It is also on podcast later on GorgeNewsCenter.com (HAYSTACK BROADCASTING. He likes to have questions to ask them ahead of time. But they usually talk about the Goldendale area for our…[Read more]

    • Chuck,

      Have you considered participating in the Fire District#3 Task Force to help us set goals?? If so, please contact Chuck Virts, the Fire Chief on 493-2996. We could use your views. We have two others from Snowden. Les

    Does 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.

  • Looks like we are back in the business of giving out manure again. Our ”sickness” seems to be on its’ way out and the tractor is back in working condition.

  • Bob C posted an update in the group Group logoSnowden Community Group 1 month, 2 weeks ago

    The Snowden Council would like to have a person from the Burdoin mountain area volunteer to serve on the council. Let the council know if you have an interest.

    Also, Fire District 3 is looking for some folks from ”up here” to serve on a short term advisory board. For details contact myself, Bob Connor 493 1080.

  • I was glad to have attended the first hour of the April meeting to learn more about plans to label evacuation routes out of Snowden, and discussion about other road issues, e.g., mile post markers, road signs. Good info about ambulance services too. Would it be possible to post the Council meeting agenda in advance of each meeting? It might…[Read more]

    • 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]

  • The Gorge Artists Open Studios tour will be on the weekend of 12 – 14 April, including several artists up here in the Snowden area: JoDean Sarins at 15 Osborne Road and Linda Steider at 161 Tunnel Road. Signs will be posted to help locate these studios. More info is available at http://www.Gorgeartists.org.
