Remembrance … It’s been Kayleigh Fosdick’s job as part of her Work Studies program at the Peninsula College Extension Site in Forks to cover the front desk, make fliers and decorate one of the building’s large windows that faces Forks Avenue. The latest window she has done she says has been the most meaningful. “It was really important especially because of the 70th anniversary of DDay,” Kayleigh said. “It took a lot of time and I really wanted to find photos that really represented the wars of each generation.” Kayleigh Fosdick stands next to the window she created at the Peninsula College Forks Extension Site in honor of Memorial Day and D-Day.

Things were moving right along on the Rainforest Arts Center project as the dirt work got under way. The weather had even cooperated with mostly sunny skies and then a problem was uncovered. “We discovered two former underground storage tanks. We had to have the soils tested after removing potentially petroleum impacted soils,” said Rod Fleck, City of Forks Attorney/Planner. While the city waited for the official results of the tests everything came to a standstill. Fleck added, “We are awaiting the official results of the tests taken pursuant to state law. We believe we will see a return to work next week with the forms for the foundations starting. Time wise, we have some additional time worked in the schedule and this took a few days away from that but we also are within our schedule.”
