Lessons on HY Board Graduating Seniors Reflect on Memories

It’s important to prepare for all sorts of emergencies, from dental to pet-related. Resident Johnna Masterson suggests various types of customized emergency kits tailored to your specific needs. She recommends keeping specialty kits at work and in your car to prepare for emergencies when you are away from home.

In honor of the 25th anniversary of Issaquah Highlands, Grand Ridge Plaza is hosting a steps challenge throughout the month of April. Residents are encouraged to record 25,000 steps by completing four round trips on the 3-mile anniversary trail. You can find the map on issaquahhighlands.com and official social media platforms. Participants will be entered to win one of 10 gift cards worth $250 each.

Help shape Issaquah Highlands governance, growth and community culture by joining a board or committee! Opportunities are available with Highlands Council, Highlands Fiber Network (HFN), Issaquah Highlands Community Association (IHCA) and Issaquah Highlands Community Fund (IHCF). Applications can be found at issaquahhighlands.com/for-residents/getinvolved/boards-committees/.

Graduating seniors on the Highlands Youth (HY) Advisory Board reflect on their meaningful experiences over the years and how this opportunity has prepared them for a successful future in college and beyond. Learn more about joining the HY Board on page 19.
