All the donations went to the Lewis County Gospel Mission in Chehalis. Fay Ternan, Lewis County Gospel Mission director, said Delaney’s coat drive started just as weather turned bitter cold in the area. The coat drive made a huge difference, Ternan said. “We had enough coats that we could actually put them out in the main dining room,” Ternan said. “We didn’t have to be as selective about giving them out because we had lots of coats for people, all different sizes.” Delaney’s mother, Amy Spen- cer, said both the Adna Elemen- tary School and High School donated lost and found boxes along with other coats collected for . Stillwater Estates in Centralia donated 30 coats, Amy Spencer said, and Chehalis West Assisted Living Center donated some coats as well. Many other coats were dropped off directly at the Lewis County Gospel Mis- sion. “People would take some in and say, ‘This is for Delaney,’ or, ‘We saw the article on the little girl,’” Amy said. “She has just been very overwhelmed with the response.” Delaney, a fourth-grader at Adna Elementary School, felt in- spired by a church service in No- vember and decided to start the drive. With help from her mother, Delaney reached out to the Lewis County Gospel Mission. “She was glad she followed her heart that day,” Amy said. Delaney is already planning future drives for hygiene prod- ucts, socks, gloves and other winter wear people may need. “She’s only 9 and because of what she did, it communicated the need to the community and it raised awareness,” Ternan said. Amy Spencer said her daugh- ter is realizing how rewarding it feels to help others. “Every time we would go pick up from a drop-off site, she had the biggest smile on her face,” she said. “This is definitely above and beyond what she imagined.”

After consideration, the groups narrowed it down to two: the Toutle and the Coweeman. Benefits to building the bank on the Toutle included the river’s comparatively limited public ac- cess and the chance for Fish and Wildlife to cease operation of the Toutle weir, the group wrote. Drawbacks include the loss of fall fishing and reduced op- portunity at a popular harvest fishery. The group also voiced con- cern about the unknown effect of climate change and potential mining operations from Mount St. Helens. Ultimately, the group recom- mended the Toutle as the gene bank location — a decision that is not yet final.

Spring Training Dream

By Carrina Stanton [email protected] / Caster Pete For The Chronicle In his young life, Parker Walsh, 18, has faced many medical and de- velopmental struggles. But talk with him. Ask him about the Mariners or the Bearcats. Or better yet, ask him to beat you in a game of air hockey, and you'd never know about his struggles. “He's always happy and playful and fun,” said his mother Cindy Walsh. That's why friends and family of this Chehalis teen are so ada- mant to help make his dream of meeting the members of the Se- attle Mariners a reality. Parker's presence has brightened so many lives and now they want to give a little of that light back. “He'll be so excited,” Parker's great-aunt Krista Goff, Centra- lia, said at a recent benefit for the teen. “With the everyday
