MIKE’S AUTO REPAIR
Honest Work for an Honest Price Put the automotive diagnostic bloodhound to the test!

By Alice Williams, Contributing Writer Photos courtesy of Mike’s Auto Repair
ike’s Auto Repair, a Napa Auto Care Center in Orchards, offers free diagnostic testing in December. Every repair at a Napa Auto Care Center includes a free “Peace of Mind” warranty that covers parts and labor for 24 months or 24,000 miles. Technicians at Napa Auto Care Centers are A.S.E. certified and committed to diagnosing and repairing automotive problems correctly the first time. A.S.E certification is a credential offered by the National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (an independent non-profit organization) to automotive technicians who demonstrate their expertise and skills in vehicle repair and service. It covers every mechanical and electrical component and system in a vehicle. It aims to improve and maintain the quality and standards of the automotive industry and to provide assurance to customers. Over 29 years have passed since Mike’s Auto Repair opened its doors at its current location. They provide all automotive repair services (except tires) and are straightforward, don’t charge you without approval, and only fix what’s wrong. They

will show you the broken parts and explain the most costeffective and safe way to fix the problem. They give you multiple options for parts costs and won’t shove the most expensive options at you. Mike Luse, a Clark County native and father of five, took over Mike’s Auto Repair in June after working there for a few years and has been providing honest work at an honest price ever since. Luse, an automotive prodigy, began working on cars as a child. He participated in automotive programs as a teenager and has been cultivating his craft week by week and year by year. Offering free diagnostic testing in December is more than just a sales offer. It’s a dare for prospective customers to challenge his diagnostic bloodhound-like skills. Presently, Mike’s Auto Repair is a one-person operation. Having Luse work on your car provides you with unparalleled in-person customer service. Luse answers your call, does the work on your car, and explains all aspects of the repair. Due to this high demand for his attention, patience is appreciated when trying to reach him on the phone. He can only sometimes answer, but follows up as quickly as possible when you leave a message. Call Mike’s Auto Repair today to schedule your service. Mike’s Auto Repair is located at 10907 NE 117th Ave, Vancouver, WA 98662, or give them a call at (360) 892-7110.

PONDEROSA GARAGE DOORS
Two Sides of the Door An unforgettable customer experience

hat makes Ponderosa Garage Doors so unique? What role do they play in making the communities they serve a better place to live? They just fix garage doors, right? Not exactly. Ponderosa Garage Doors is a family-owned business with an integrated vision, a defined mission and core values. Their dedication to a client’s security and peace of mind is executed throughout every step of the servicing process. They won’t just show up for a “quick fix” and leave. They take the time to do a thorough job and evaluate the entire system for any additional signs of potential breakdown. Working with Ponderosa Garage Doors is like working with your own family. They’re going to take care of you! Speaking of family, owners Ken Fielding (COO) and his wife, Kris (Office Manager) established Ponderosa Garage Doors 28 years ago. Currently, their eldest son, Teal, is the company’s Service Specialist. He can be found in the field handling repairs and estimates. Their son Brock serves as Financial Manager and Head of Marketing. Daughter Anna is the Service Dispatcher and assists with administration. Additional staff members of this Vancouver, Washington based company might not be blood-related, but all share the same values and concerns as the

family. “We promote a culture of ‘Ponderosa takes care of me and I’m here to take care of you,’” Brock relates in reference to their team and their customers. Ponderosa Garage Doors specializes in installing, replacing, repairing, and maintaining garage doors throughout southwest Washington and the greater Portland area, both residential and commercial. All service calls are taken through a 29-point inspection to make sure the system is running safely and is going to be reliable moving forward. “It’s kind of like going to the doctor,” Brock says, explaining that if a person has a complaint, a doctor will examine to see if there’s anything else that could be causing the problem or adding to the symptoms. As well as tending to garage doors, “We also install and service garage door openers,” Brock adds. Building strong relationships with the communities they live in and serve is key to Ponderosa Garage Doors’ business model and company mission. “We’re continuing to grow and striving to have a bigger impact on the community and share our vision to provide peace of mind and security to all homes,” Brock expresses. Technicians who live on the Oregon side of the river have been added to serve Portland area clients in a more professional and timely manner. Active members of Camas Chamber of Commerce and sponsors of the Camas athletic booster club, Ponderosa Garage Doors supports Clark County athletics and sponsors game brochures and stadium signs as well as other community endeavors. Ponderosa Garage Doors is located at 12308 NE 56th Street in Vancouver, Washington. Email customerservice@ ponderosagaragedoors.com.

In the summer of 2022, I opened In Tune Nutrition with the goal of helping people recover their health using targeted nutrition. I am a nutritionist with advanced clinical training in Nutrition Response Testing, a non-invasive method of analyzing a person’s body to determine stressed areas, the cause of the stress and what can be done nutritionally to start feeling better. I successfully help people with digestive issues, food sensitivities, fatigue, brain fog, hormone imbalances, menopause, stress, anxiety, poor sleep, seasonal allergies, skin conditions, high blood pressure, arthritis, autoimmune conditions and much more. If you’re curious how Nutrition Response Testing could help you, I’d love to chat! Mention Community Advantage Magazine to receive 50% off your initial consultation and report of findings! With 30-plus years of experience as a loan officer, I specialize in various mortgage financing options, particularly reverse mortgages. Through community involvement, I provide financial guidance to seniors through events, such as the Senior Center Lunch & Learns, fundraisers for Alzheimer’s Research and the Senior Heroes Award ceremony. I also sponsor monthly dances at Vancouver-area senior centers. These activities have enriched my understanding of seniors’ financial needs, allowing me to better serve my clients and positively impact the community. I take pride in helping seniors find the right financing options for home buying or refinancing, often increasing their income from their home. My commitment extends to assisting all community members with their home-financing needs. I have been in banking for more than 45 years, mostly specializing in nonprofit and small-business banking, I am responsible for sales, management and the retention of clients, and I am dedicated to creating new ways to enhance existing relationships. I am actively involved in my local community, serving as a board member for Vancouver’s Downtown Association, the Clark County Mural Society, Family Promise, Metropolitan Performing Arts and Washington State University Business MAP Growth Program. I also serve on the Culture, Arts and Heritage Commission for the City of Vancouver, and I am an active committee member for the Parks Foundation of Clark County, the Children’s Home Society, Fosterful, Pink Lemonade Project and Humanities Washington.

Susan Peake
My parents instilled in me to do the best in everything I pursue. This concept of idealism has been the backbone of my career. After practicing the first 10 years in various dental clinics, I purchased Daybreak Dental. This pivotal point in my career allowed me to fulfill my goal of helping people by focusing on what was truly important to me. With an emphasis on exceptional preventative care, we aim to keep our patients from having a dental emergency and living their lives with a worry-free smile. I’m dedicated to providing the best treatment recommendations based on my patient’s specific needs, even if it requires a service not offered at my clinic. We recently moved to our new location behind the People’s Credit Union in Battle Ground, and have grown to include three female dentists who share this same vision for patient care. I have been working at Columbia Collectors for 33 years, helping small businesses collect their challenging accounts receivables, so they can thrive sustainably. We aim to change the stigma of this industry, often depicted as mean-spirited, but not here. My longevity at the same company speaks volumes for our trustworthy approach. I am a loyal friend, wife, daughter and employee who loves to live life to the fullest and give back to the community. I was blessed to be able to travel the world because my dad was in the Navy for 30 years. I am a member of the Blue Crew, Ridgefield Chamber of Commerce and Game Changers Networking — the mission of the latter is “to network to give and serve; the referrals are just a byproduct.” I am surrounded by an amazing community that thrives on connection, growing and giving back.

I began my four-decade experience within the hospitality industry with the premise of adding Northwestinspired savory ingredients to any event with fresh, creative, innovative menu options. Starting with social and corporate catering, I soon added aviation catering, providing menus for private jets and charters for national sports teams flying from PDX and four other airports. Simply Thyme Catering is a growing company with clients from Vancouver, Portland and surrounding areas. We are recognized for our commitment to quality and service while giving back to the community. “Our food is the voice of our company!”

Your One Stop Print Shop Still “bringing all of your ideas to life”, but from their new expanded location!

nk Ability, Battle Ground’s local, family-owned-andoperated print shop, “features state-of-the-art printing equipment and full-service bindery for all of your printing needs.” Known throughout Clark County for its highquality print work, they have received recognition for the last four years and counting as a Top 5 nominee for “Best of Clark County” printers. They handle flyers, posters, banners, business cards, invitations, signs, forms, copying, graphic design and more. Ink Ability is “your one stop print shop!” Strongly committed to their clients, Ink Ability takes extra steps to ensure customer satisfaction. A primary focus for the print shop is keeping prices affordable and service timely. “We do high quality work with a fast turnaround time,” relates Kendra Laratta, Ink Ability’s principal owner. Speaking to quality, proofs are provided on every job, and Kendra goes the extra mile to preview each project as well — if anything seems amiss, she’ll call the client before going to print. “Our customer service is really what sets us apart,” Kendra explains. “We want to ensure that the finished product you receive is precisely the product you envisioned.”

Ever mindful of providing for the needs of the community, Ink Ability is (as of December 1st) moving to a new expanded location at 907 SE Grace Avenue in Battle Ground. No longer hampered by the space constraints which limited production in their previous location, Kendra is ecstatic about the move. “This should increase our efficiency dramatically,” she stated, “And now we will finally have the ability to employ an oversized scanner (for blueprints) and a Roland Machine for processing die-cut stickers. This is something they’ve wanted to do for quite some time and they are anxious to take that next step and be able to accommodate more jobs. Community outreach remains a high priority for Kendra and her husband, Russell, co-owner of Ink Ability. They are supporters of local nonprofits and provide many instances of in-kind donations and work for organizations such as Rocksolid Community Teen Center and Battle Ground Education Foundation. Kendra is also a Founding Member of the Battle Ground Festival Association which is responsible for hosting various community events such as Harvest Days and the annual Trick or Treat on Main Street. Kendra has done so much for the community, in fact, that she was named “Citizen of the Year” in 2022 by the Citizen of the Year Committee (a great honorthat profoundly moved her). Kendra and Russell absolutely love their Battle Ground community. Since they moved here seven years ago (from Southern Oregon), they have come to consider this town and their customers family. This business is an opportunity for them to interact and help people “bring their ideas to life!” So next time you have any kind of print job, large or small, trust Ink Ability to get it done right every time. Ink Ability is located at 907 SE Grace Ave in Battle Ground. Contact Kendra by phone at (360)723-0151, email mail@ inkabilitybg.com, or visit their website at inkabilitybg.com.
