  • Pool Chunks, Sweet Friends & Brews an interview with Heather DePriest
    Jul 2 2025

    In this episode of Bear With Us, we’re joined by Heather DePriest, Board President of Chinook’s Friends of the Pool and Park. Heather shares how her kids bringing home a literal piece of the town pool kickstarted a major community project. From that moment on, she and a dedicated group of volunteers have been working hard to save and upgrade Chinook’s beloved pool and park. We talk about their big goals, the challenges of pool funding (spoiler: it’s tough), and their upcoming BrewFest fundraiser—complete with beer, music, and good vibes. If you love small towns doing big things, this one’s for you.
