Internet marketing company to open o� ce in former Riverview building
BY DAWN FELDHAUS
Post-Record Staff
Less than a week after Amnesia Brewing an-nounced plans to open a tasting room, pub and brewhouse at 1834 Main St. in downtown Washou-gal, another company will move in to an o� ce build-ing one block away.
Wes and Monique Rice, owners of E� ective Web Solutions, will open an o� ce next month in the former Riverview Com-munity Bank building at 1737 Main St.
The company’s prima-ry o� ce is in Spanaway, Wash., near Tacoma.
“This will be a bigger location for us,” Monique said. “We love the commu-nity. That’s why we wanted a local, small town.
“We love the fact we can walk across the street and get a cup of co� ee or soup,” she added. “We can eat lunch outside or walk down to the Columbia Riv-er. It was just a natural � t for us.”
The Rices own a home in Camas, and they have a rental home in Washougal.
Nine of their employees have been working out of the Camas home.
“We were expanding,” Monique said. “We have 15 employees up north. Most of our business is in Clark County. It did not make sense to expand up there when we have so much business here.”
The Rices have signed a two-year lease with Lone Wolf Development for the 2,500 square foot former bank building. Lone Wolf is owned by Wes Hickey, of Washougal.
“We think we will out-grow it, and Lone Wolf has
multiple properties,” Mo-nique said. “We anticipate having 40 to 50 employees before the two years are up.”
E� ective Web Solutions, founded by the Rices in 2009, also has employees in Los Angeles and Phoe-nix. The internet market-ing company, which has more than 300 clients in the Portland/Vancouver area, provides search en-gine optimization and web design services.
Monique serves as the sales director, and Wes is the president and chief ex-ecutive o� cer.
The o� ce in downtown Washougal already has new carpeting. Monique said they plan to “freshen it up a little bit” by up-grading the landscaping, removing the awning, add-ing a new sign and paint-ing the outside of the build-ing.
“I think we are pretty much ready to go,” she said.
The employees who cur-rently work in Camas live in the local area.
“One employee is excited about being able to ride his bicycle to work,” Monique said. “We’re really excited to be here and expanding in the area. We hope we can help a lot of the local businesses and market the businesses and help them grow.”
E� ective Web Solutions is currently seeking a web-site designer and program-mers. For more informa-tion, call (888) 400-4002 or visit www.e� ectivewebso-lutions.biz.
Nail salon to open at 1887 Main
The Rices made the an-nouncement regarding their company Thursday, at a Technology Excellence in Clark County meet-ing at Washougal Town Square.
Adam Taylor, a repre-sentative with Lone Wolf
Development, mentioned a “high end” nail salon plans to open next month in a space on the � rst � oor at 1887 Main, a new “incu-bator” building. An event planner is reviewing a draft lease, to locate on the second � oor of the same building.
In an email sent to City Council, Washougal Mayor Sean Guard thanked Tay-lor for all of the work he has been doing.
“He has been working to get these two deals com-pleted and continue the momentum downtown,” Guard said. “Mr. Hickey certainly has a committed young man, aggressively promoting downtown Washougal.”
Additional retail and of-� ce spaces remain avail-able in 1887 Main and Washougal Town Square. For more information, con-tact Taylor at 335-1945, or visit www.washougaltown-square.com.

Project will be � nished by June
BY HEATHER ACHESON
Post-Record Staff
The City of Camas will spend $10,000 to $15,000 in an e� ort to make City Hall more user friendly for its citizens.
During a presentation at the Camas City Council workshop last night, Mayor Scott Higgins said as part of the project four new per-manent walls will be built to help create a new entryway intended to lead visitors to a central desk sta� ed by an administrative assis-
tant who will serve as a “� rst point of contact.”
“The whole point of this is to pro-vide a better point of contact for the customer, within the limitations of this building as it is,” Higgins said.
The project is expected to get un-derway soon, and be completed by June 1.
A city employee who currently works at the library has been hired to � ll the administrative support assistant position starting April 2. She will initially work 32 hours per week at a rate of $15.98 per hour. A similar job was held by a former city employee who retired in 2011. Until the recent hire, the position had not been re� lled.
Funding for the project will come
from within the existing 2012 bud-get. Higgins said the expertise of city employees will be used to com-plete the work wherever possible. In addition, a Camas interior de-signer has already agreed to con-tribute her services to the project free of charge, and the mayor hopes to secure other in-kind donations to help keep the project costs man-ageable as well.
The 25,000 square foot Camas Municipal Center, located at 616 N.E. Fourth Ave., was built in 1967. It currently houses the � nance, public works, building, human re-sources and � re departments, as well as the city administration and the mayor’s o� ce.

Washougal Mayor Sean Guard has proclaimed Wednesday to be “Breast Reconstruction Advocacy Victory Event Day.”
The proclamation, is-sued during last night’s City Council meeting, advocates that all women with new diagnoses of breast cancer deserve to know their rights to breast reconstruction as an integral part of breast cancer treatment.
The declaration, in-spired by the “Pink Lem-onade Project,” mentions that preparing a compre-hensive breast reconstruc-tion plan prior to imple-menting treatment has an impact on the overall well being of the patient.
The “Pink Lemonade Project” was founded by Drs. Allen and Cassie Gabriel, of Camas. They have worked with the PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center Founda-tion to establish the Pink Lemonade Fund. Money raised helps subsidize the cost of educational retreats for women who have been diagnosed with breast can-cer.
An open house will be held Wednesday, at the PeaceHealth Medical Group Plastic Surgery Of-� ce in Vancouver. It will include an opportunity to order pink recycling carts to bene� t the Pink Lemon-ade Project.
The limited edition carts will be sold for $200. The Waste Connections pink cart project was inspired by a relative of the com-pany’s western region vice president, Rob Nielsen.
His sister-in-law, Dee-dra Rosamond, passed away at the age of 35 after a long battle with stage 4 breast cancer. It was one of her � nal wishes for her family to continue to sup-port a local breast cancer charity.
Rosamond’s struggle
inspired Nielsen and his wife, Desiree, to help make the pink cart project, now known among Waste Con-nection sta� , as “Deedra’s Dream,” a reality.
“We are incredibly pleased to partner with this local nonpro� t for such a very worthwhile cause,” said Scott Campbell, with Waste Connections.
For more information, contact Marci Caputo at 901-5597 or [email protected].
Local restaurants to also participate
in BRAVE DayTwo eateries in Camas
are teaming with the Pink Lemonade Project to raise awareness about breast re-construction rights.
Pink lemonade (with or without alcohol) will be served Wednesday, at Roots Restaurant and Bar, 19215 S.E. 34th St., and 360 Pizzeria, 3425 S.E. 192nd Ave. The beverages will be served with com-plimentary pink bracelets supporting the cause.
Proceeds from the sales of the pink lemonade drinks will go to the proj-ect of the same name.
Washougal declares Wednesday to be ‘B� VE Day’
BRAVE DAY OPEN HOUSE
What: Raffl e for SkinCeuticals skin care kits, gift bags and BRAVE Day bracelet giveaways, breast reconstruction vendor displays, photo booth, “Wall of the Brave” bra design table, and food and pink lemonade.
When: Wednesday, from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.
