County Lodging Tax Committee Friday Night Lights Return Finalizes Annual Funding Recommendations ORGANIZATIONS: Discover Packwood Could Receive Largest Amount; 19 Finalists Selected to Receive Funding By Aaron Kunkler and Justyna Tomtas The Lewis County Lodg- ing Tax Advisory Committee met Thursday to finalize annual funding recommendations to be presented to the Board of Coun- ty Commissioners. This year they decided how to best allocate $300,000 in lodging tax revenue for 2017 to various organizations which promote tourism in the county, particularly ones which gener- ate overnight visits and which can benefit the whole county. The recommendations will now be passed along to the Board of County Commissioners who can approve or reject them but cannot alter the dollar amounts. For 2016, the commissioners approved $231,000 of a total $281,000 budget. Nineteen grant finalists were selected to receive funding, with the Discover Packwood visitor’s center receiving the most with a $60,000 recommendation, only $4,000 below its maximum asking price.

Studio K’s 2,000 square-foot Chehalis location is an extension of their existing business in Olympia, located on their two-acre property. The Olympia home-studio offers ample indoor and outdoor space for sessions, but Stuckey said she also wanted a retail space for the business. They moved in this June and recently had a grand opening. When Kari Stuckey and her family first saw the picturesque space in 514 N. Market Boule- vard, they knew it was the perfect place for their photography

She has worked at the Lewis County Sheriff’s Office for the past 20 years — spending the past seven as its chief deputy of the Special Services bureau. “It’s been emotional this week, but I’m so excited,” she told The Chronicle Thursday.

My son and I are two of them. This year we became beekeepers, and every time we go out in our suits and say hello to “our girls,” we have the LCBA to thank.

In Bethesda, Maryland, a police officer disguised himself as a homeless man, stood near a busy intersection and radioed ahead to officers down the road about texting drivers. In two hours last October, police gave out 56 tickets. And in West Bridgewater, Massachusetts, south of Boston, an officer regularly tools around town on his bicycle, pedals up to drivers at stoplights and hands them $105 tickets.

Prep Soccer Local Girls Soccer Teams Compete in Centralia Jamboree By Matt Baide [email protected] Tiger Stadium in Centra- lia hosted six local girls soccer teams on Thursday night for a jamboree in preparation for the upcoming season. Six 20-minute games were played in order for Centralia, W.F. West, Rochester, Napavine, Onalaska and Toledo to play against another team before the start of the season. The star team was the W.F. West Bearcats, scoring in each of their two games. Lexis Haller scored two goals in the Bearcats’ opening game against Napavine, and Kiara Steen scored in the second game against Onalaska. “I think we played pretty well. We wanted to focus on playing with a more uptempo pace and really work on our offensive side of things today,” W.F. West coach Allen Anderson said. “I liked our combination play. We were making some really smart decisions with the ball. I think things are coming together pretty good.” The other team to net a goal in the prologue to the regular season was Napavine, as Kayla Casey scored in the Tigers’ second game, against the other Ti- gers of Centralia. “We looked pretty well. We are really young, we have no seniors,” Napavine coach Mike Dieckman said. “We have four freshmen

Life 4 • The Chronicle, Centralia/Chehalis, Wash., Saturday, Sept. 3, 2016 Faith Religion, Church News Indian-Americans Clash With Cowboy Town Over Proposed Center

By Amy Taxin The Associated Press NORCO, Calif. — The Southern California city of Nor- co markets itself as “Horsetown USA,” and it’s not unusual for cowboy hat-wearing residents to head out for lunch or run er- rands on horseback in its Old West-styled downtown. Local leaders celebrate that rural, equestrian lifestyle and are protective of it. Those who build must ensure their property includes Western architec- tural features such as a metal roof or overhang. But some Indian-Americans are questioning the sincerity of that standard after the City Council rejected a proposal for a hilltop Hindu cultural center on a hilltop partly on grounds that the large, domed building wouldn’t fit in. They think the decision — which came after residents urged the city to keep its culture and questioned why proponents chose the site — is discriminatory. Dr. Krupali Tejura, a radiation oncologist who grew up in nearby Corona and works at an

But census data show the community has grown in recent years, especially in Riverside County, where Norco is located. There is a Sikh temple in Norco inside a grange hall-turned- church and a Hindu temple in the neighboring county, and In- dian movies are shown at a Co- rona theater. The controversy over the proposed cultural center has focused attention on how Norco can keep its Western theme and rural lifestyle while incorporat- ing newcomers, and how those who arrive in the city can adapt to their surroundings while re- taining their culture. Manu Patolia, who proposed the project, said he is willing to ditch the domes and revamp the design of the 25,000-square-foot Swaminarayan Gurukul center, which would host Indian language classes for children and yoga for the community at large. “I went around and took some pictures in Norco, and I showed them: Please tell us which one is the Western one that we can follow,” Patolia said. Patolia started laying out the changes for council members but was told a revised project would need to go back to city planners for review. He said he is now weighing his options for the property, which he bought in the hopes of building the center. City officials said the project not only lacks Western-styled architecture but could cause drainage and parking problems. They note they’ve pressured businesses ranging from vet- erinarians to Bob’s Big Boy — whose mascot dons a city-funded cowboy hat — to get Western or get out. • Life 5 FAITH The Chronicle, Centralia/Chehalis, Wash., Saturday, Sept. 3, 2016

It is the first and only time the charter members — assigned to widely separated missions — are able to gather together in person.

The Fox opened showing the feature film Merely Mary Ann, starring the on- screen romantic pair of Janet Gaynor and Charles Farrell. The Fox was built by Fox West Coast Theatres for ap- proximately $1 million, and was the work of renowned architect Robert C.
