May 20th 2015, we gathered at Highland House to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of the founding of Highland County Historical Society. Many proclamations were read and several folks had something to say about the achievement. A sugar maple was planted out front and a bell, manufactured by the Prindle Station Company of Washougal, Washington and using the bell patterns used by our own C. S. Bell Co. The folks at Prindle, learning of our 50th Anniversary, provided this beautiful bell as their gift to help us celebrate!
Refreshments followed the evening's events and included a cake with the picture of Highland House on it!

The County Recorder has the important and indispensable task of keeping the vital records pertaining to ownership in real estate (land) and to all encumbrances or liens upon it. Without the work of the County Recorder in recording, safekeeping and organizing all documents in a competent and logical manner, it would be nearly impossible to purchase land and be assured of a clear title or to lend money with land as security. The Recorder's Office "Records History in the Making", and this presentation will highlight some of the important tasks of the County Recorder.
