I am dumbfounded at the amount and variety of litter I encounter as I walk along State Route 904 and Presley and Salnave. I started carrying a single grocery bag to fill the litter, and...
Cheney’s U19 girls’ soccer team found out that there is truth in the old adage “It’s not how you start, but how you finish.” The FC Storm finished about as strong as a team could at regional tournament play last week at 60 Acres Park in Redmond, Wash., June 28 – July 1, taking advantage of eking their way out of pool play to win a spot at the U.S. Club national tournament July 18 – 24 in Denver, Colo.
