As with the Grays Harbor proclamation, Ms. Andrews’ fifth grade class at Lincoln Elementary School in Hoquiam was responsible.

Well, my class did it again. 5th graders are saving Sasquatch one county at a time. As of yesterday Clallam County has an official proclamation protecting Sasquatch. After researching Bigfoot and writing an awesome persuasive letter, they got to zoom in to the county meeting yesterday. I’m so proud of those kids! – Andrea Andrews
