Rattlesnake avoidance classes resume after pandemic hiatus

Feb 29, 2024 | wenatcheeworld.com | Don Seabrook

WENATCHEE — One by one, 17 dogs were led up a manicured grass lawn to a live rattlesnake, and one by one, their experience was a shocking one. After each got a good whiff of the snake enclosed in a wire mesh tube, Darel Ansley would push a button on a small remote, and the dogs would get an electric jolt through a special collar fitted around their neck.

Students returning to class at Wenatchee High School in the fall of 1973 were greeted by this 42-foot Panther in the new gym. Chet Endrizzi applied finishing touches to the mascot, donated by the class of ’73. The lights have been swapped out and a new scoreboard is seen but the panther mural remains inside the Wenatchee High School gymnasium as seen on June 20, 2023.

Dec 6, 2023 | wenatcheeworld.com | Don Seabrook

The Wenatchee World news staff welcomes Photo Editor Jacob Ford this week as he transitions into the role I held for over 20 years. As I prepare to head out the door and into the bliss known as retirement after 40 years behind the lens and more than 20 years leading the department, a new chapter is about to begin for The Wenatchee World as well. Jacob Ford, newly named to succeed me, was raised in the South — Alabama specifically, Montgomery more specifically.

Dec 1, 2023 | wenatcheeworld.com | Don Seabrook

Giving thanks for a 40-year career

Dec 1, 2023 | wenatcheeworld.com | Don Seabrook

It’s time to say goodbye and thank you. To say it’s been an honor to document the people of North Central Washington would be the understatement of my life. I still can’t believe how blessed I’ve been to do what I get paid to do. On Sept. 1, 1983, I started my career at The Wenatchee World. But my journey to that end started in a classroom at Sterling Middle School with teacher Ron Mason showing a classroom of fidgety kids the magic of making a photographic print. I was hooked.
Looking Back for December 2023

A Liberty Bond Drive took place at the Waterville Hotel in 1918. The landmark hotel was constructed in 1903 and had a brisk business with travelers in the area. As patronage slowed, the hotel closed in the 1970s. The hotel was placed on the National Historic Register in 1984 and was later restored and reopened for business in 1996. The Waterville Historic Hotel's structure is much the same in this photograph taken on July 18, 2023.
