The Times - Serving Waitsburg, Dayton and the Touchet Valley

Dear Editor,

Hello Dayton --- Thank You!

The weekend before the car show (Sunday- June 9 thru Wednesday am – June 12), the Jawbone RV Club from the Lewiston/Clarkston area rolled into town and set up camp at the fairgrounds. There were 11 rigs, 29 people and three couples who stayed at the Best Western on account of their trucks losing their “get up and go” at zero hour.

Many of our members said that they had been “THROUGH DAYTON” lots of times but never stopped to take in the town. We thoroughly enjoyed visiting your historical sites, wind farms, galleries, hotels, courthouse, grocery store, and all of the other shops along Main Street. The eateries i.e. golf course restaurant and the Moose Creek Café and Bakery were scrumptious. All of our contacts for setting up tours as well as the town-folk were so accommodating and welcoming.

On Tuesday night we were honored to have one of your county commissioners stop by to welcome us. In fact, we had about half a dozen town folks stop by to see what all of the trailers displaying the American flag was all about.

Thanks to the citizens of Dayton and the Columbia County Fairgrounds for the use of the grounds and the 4-H building, we had a great June outing. We came, we saw and we enjoyed.

You should be proud of the great community you live in.
