Don’t forget to register to hear State of the County address in person

New format offers more seating at annual gathering hosted by commissioners

Vancouver, WA – The 2009 State of the County event on Feb. 12 will be less formal and have the potential to seat more people than in years past. There is no charge to attend, but reservations are due by Feb. 4, to help arrange seating and provide light refreshments.

This year’s program will be from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m. at the Camas High School Theater, 26900 S.E. 15th St., Camas. The main speaker will be Marc Boldt, the 2009 Chair of the Board of Clark County Commissioners.

Boldt served five terms as a Washington State Representative from the 17th legislative district before taking office as a County Commissioner in January 2005. He was elected to a second four-year term in November and took the oath of office in January 2009. He will discuss issues of concern to the current Board, which includes commissioners Steve Stuart and Tom Mielke.

The commissioners also will present 2009 Spirit of Clark County awards to volunteers for extraordinary contributions in serving the community. Clark/Vancouver Television (CVTV) Cable Channels 21 and 23 will air the speech at a later date.
