VANCOUVER — The Historic Trust and city of Vancouver recently announced the 33rd Annual Lough Legacy Veterans’ Parade, Sat., Nov. 9, 11 a.m. at Fort Vancouver National Site and downtown Vancouver. The parade will have over 100 groups participating this year to recognize and honor our veterans.

This year, the Community Military Appreciation Committee (CMAC) will hold an Open House at Hudson’s Bay High School, 1601 E.
