As recalled by Loyce Martinazzi: “The flood of 1937 was remembered by old timers as being a real doozy! Any man that had a rowboat would paddle around and see if his neighbors needed groceries or medical assistance. The old 1900 schoolhouse still held classes for the middle and upper grades, but the new grade school was not yet finished so first and second grade students had classes at the old city hall. My sister Joanne remembered traveling to first grade in a rowboat.” Credit: Tualatin Life, February 2016.
