Come one come all! Lyle Community Action Council will be hosting a candidate's night Thursday, Sept. 5, at 6:30 p.m. at the Lyle Lions Community Center. Here is your opportunity to get acquainted with who is running for federal, state and local offices. Let's pack the hall and ask the questions!
Lyle has four active 4-H clubs and many of the members will be taking part in the Klickitat County Market Stock sale at the County Fair Aug. 24. Here is an opportunity for the citizens of Lyle to support these clubs. Either go to the sale and bid on the stock or send a check to donate to the members to: 14 Tawasentha Dr., White Salmon, Wash. 98672. 4-H is such an educational, life forming experience and will enrich the members for the rest of their lives. Let's show the members and their leaders that we are behind them.
Just a reminder:
The chip site is open for the summer. The chip site is located in the southeast corner of Lyle on the riverside of the railroad tracks. You can access the site by taking the tunnel underneath the railroad tracks. Turn right past the sewer plant. Please read the sign giving instructions for what can and cannot be left.
Lyle's burn ban is in effect.
August's Community Action Council meeting is Monday, Aug. 26.
Town Slogan Contest entry deadline is Sept. 2.
Lyle History: As published in the Ruralite September 1985.
"The Walkers are even tempered, have a good disposition and are very trainable for farm work, according to Jim. They can also cut well, without ever spooking cattle." But many of them are really show horses. Our old mare, Honey Rose, was always a real ham and loved to hear the bands playing and the crowds clapping at the shows."
Jim is a member of both the Washington and Oregon Tennessee Walking Horse Associations and the Breeders Association of Tennessee and he and Eunice enjoy going to the shows. "In fact, we went to eleven shows between April and October of 1984," says Eunice.
But now a days Jim turns the strenuous training of his horses over to a very able person, Frank White of Twilite Stables near Eugene. "Frank came from Shelbyville, Tennessee and he specializes in Tennessee Walkers. He's the best trainer on the West Coast," says Jim. "He even came up with some clever names for our horses-like Honey's First and last for a yearling which looks like his grandmother, Honey Rose."
Throw out nonessential numbers. This includes age, weight and height. Let the doctor worry about them. That is why you pay him/her.
