Good morning, Longview. Here's your local news at a glance for Saturday, the 12th of July.

COMMUNITY NEWS

  • A March policy change now allows beer and wine at summer concerts at Lake Sacajawea + the Rotary Club of Longview is selling these drinks as a club fundraiser.  The Daily News Longview
  • Kelso airport will hold an antique fly-in in July that will feature food vendors — and the Unique Tin Car Club.  The Daily News Longview

ECONOMY NEWS

  • Food Lifeline, a nonprofit that supplies nearly 300 food banks across Western Washington, is facing shortages after nearly $2M in federal cuts removed the equivalent of 63 semitrucks of food. Lower Columbia CAP predicts increased demand from SNAP cuts—FISH in Cowlitz County is already handling more food requests as prices rise.  The Daily News Longview

ENVIRONMENT NEWS

  • Native plants can help make yards more nature friendly in SW WA, but experts say they do not always do well in typical urban soils — homeowners should choose plants that match their yard’s soil, water, and sun. The advice comes from a monthly local column by WSU Master Gardeners who show that a mix of plant types can offer food and shelter for local wildlife.  The Daily News Longview
  • On July 11, Save Our Wild Salmon released its first Hot Water Report showing that water in all four lower Columbia reservoirs has passed the crucial 68° threshold amid drought and low snowpack. The report warns that salmon and steelhead face a triple threat—heat, stagnant water, and toxic algae—with federal agencies planning actions to help cool the river soon.  The Daily News Longview
