Good morning, Pasco.

Old Timer, an eight and a half year old Jack Russell mix at the Tri Cities Animal Shelter, has reunited with his owner after being missing for more than three years—his Facebook post confirmed his microchip details and led to a pet transport service that returned him home.

Pasco released its Grand Old Fourth celebration schedule for July 4 with events beginning at Memorial Park, including a Kiwanis Pancake Breakfast from 7:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m., a Kids Street Dance at 9:15 a.m. and a parade at 10:00 a.m. starting at City Hall along W.

Children’s Attic is a family-owned thrift store in Pasco that carries the largest selection of gently used baby and children’s clothing in the Mid-Columbia.

Gov. Bob Ferguson said he will not call a special session yet—state agencies and lawmakers will review budgets and seek additional cuts as federal funding concerns persist.

The State Director of Rural Development visited Pasco to meet with Franklin County commissioners and residents, addressing concerns about emergency services, water issues, and broadband expansion.

Local community members stressed that their 70-year-old water system—serving 50 homes—frequently suffers breaks and needs critical funding for upgrades.

Tri-Cities health experts say that U.S. sunscreen options are limited to older ingredients because they are regulated as over-the-counter drugs — while European products use newer UV filters for better protection.

Residents may consider European-formulated sunscreens to stay safer under the bright sun — especially as studies show these options offer broader coverage.
