Thousands of area residents and visitors made downtown Camas their destination this weekend (July 21-22) for the community celebration that has taken place annually since 1974.
The event is organized by the Camas-Washougal Chamber of Commerce. This year’s theme was “A Fairytale.’’ This year’s event also celebrated the 100th anniversary of the Camas Public Library. Jeannette Jester was honored as the 2023 Camas Days queen and Pat Suggs was recognized as Citizen of the Year.
The family friendly activities included a Kid’s Parade on Friday and the Grand Parade on Saturday. The Grand Marshal of the 2023 Camas Days Grand Parade was Don Chaney. Other features included food and vendor booths and the “Kids Street,’’ which offered rides for children and other attractions.
Other entertainment included the bathtub races on Saturday and live music was also performed on both Friday and Saturday.
