Military History Talk – Waiting for the Cold War to Heat Up
2023-02-23 18:30 - 19:30 | O.O. Howard House, 750 Anderson St, Vancouver, WA, 98661, United States
The Trust is excited to host the Vancouver Barracks Military Association’s 2023 military history talk series. Join us for the first talk of the year and learn more about the history of the Vancouver Barracks.
After World War II, the Vancouver Barracks went from being the Pacific Northwest’s premier Regular Army post to playing a more minor role. This change had major effects on the local community that are still felt today. From the late 1940s to 2011, the Vancouver Barracks become the home to many Army Reserve and National Guard units that drew their soldiers from the local community. Who were the major units at the Vancouver Barracks? And what significant activities happened there? Join speaker Maj. Jeff Davis (U.S. Army, ret.) for this fascinating discussion!

Walk & Knock is Back
2022-12-03 09:00 - 14:00 | WA
After three years, Walk & Knock will be back in the neighborhoods, picking up non-perishable food and toiletries. Walk and Knock, one of the nation’s largest one-day food drives is a Non-Profit 100% volunteer organization that collects charitable donations of food, supplies, and money, for the Clark County Food Bank for providing food to those in need across our community. This drive takes place every year on the Saturday of December, which this year is Saturday, December 3, 2022.
You can help in the fight against hunger by filling your Walk and Knock grocery bag with non-perishables and leaving it on your front porch on Saturday morning before 9:00 AM. If you don’t have a Walk and Knock grocery bag, please feel free to use any grocery bag, just be sure to label it “Walk and Knock”. A half a bag, a full bag, or even two bags if you can… every bit helps!

Volunteers will gather together Saturday morning and begin their routes. They go door–to–door to collect the bags and deliver the food to one of several drop–off locations or staging areas located throughout Clark County. The food is then boxed by volunteers and delivered to the Clark County Food Bank. From there it is distributed to local food banks which distribute the collected food to people in need.
The Walk and Knock Food Drive encompasses the entire Clark County area. Volunteers come from local church groups, high school clubs, and several other organizations, as well as hundreds of individuals who answer the call for help. Members of local non-profit organizations and other community leaders head up the various staging sites.
For more information, please visit Walk and Knock online.

Christmas Ships
2022-12-01 18:00 - 21:00 | WA
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas! What a wonderful time to relax and take in all the beauty our community has to offer, especially after dark. Not only do our neighborhoods light up, but so does the Columbia River. One of the most unique Christmas lighting displays around Clark County starts Friday, December 2, 2022.
The Christmas Ship Parade started out as one lone sailboat, and now the fleet averages 60 ships (between the Columbia River and Willamette River fleets) adorned with Christmas lights and decorations. The Christmas Ship Parade has become a family tradition for many boat owners, and the Skippers pay for their own decorations and fuel costs, for the enjoyment of all. As this is an all-volunteer organization, not all ships make it out every night.
The Columbia Fleet will set sail on Friday, December 2, 2022, and will sail for a total of 15 nights through December 21, 2022. For more information and the most up-to-date schedule, visit Christmas Ships online.
