"In last week’s issue of the Deer Park Tribune, the article “Spokane County Auditor Candidates Discuss Their Qualifications Ahead of Primary Elections” the name labels were accidentally switched for the headshots of Michael Cathcart and Dale Whitaker. The candidate pictures with the correct name labels are posted. The Deer Park Tribune sincerely apologizes for this mistake."

If you drive Southwood Shores Road at Deer Lake and enjoy the dust
free experience, I encourage you to vote for Mark Burrows as our County Commissioner. Mark was a strong advocate for this paving. His leadership demonstrated care for the over- all health of this beautiful lake.
