ARTrails Thanks Our Community
ARTrail Artists are filled with gratitude for our local community and our Sponsors, Patrons, Friends and Advertisers after this successful year. We could not have done this without you.
We had fantastic attendance at our Studios this year as our visitors watched art being made and bought lots of ART! We were especially pleased to see so many visitors from outside of Lewis County.
Lewis County and the Cities of Centralia and Chehalis have generously supported the vision and activities of ARTrails over the last 21 years. We thank them, as well as other communities over Lewis County, for their support of the arts. We look forward to our continuing and evolving relationships.
We also thank the many volunteers and businesses who have ontributed to our annual events and our success over the past years. Their ongoing support has been a major factor in our success.

Rainier Eye – Diabetic Eye Exams
Do you have diabetes? Is your medical doctor asking you to get your eyes checked?
Do you wonder why?
Uncontrolled diabetes causes the walls of blood vessels to weaken, resulting in blockages, leaks and new leaky blood vessels- called diabetic retinopathy. Diabetic retinopathy is the leading cause of preventable blindness in the United States. With a dilated eye exam and retinal imaging, Drs. Mary Ferris and Angela Loeb can see your blood vessels at work. The eye is the one place in the body where connective, vascular, and neurological tissue can be seen in a noninvasive way. The sooner retinopathy is found, the better your chances are of maintaining vision.
The Rainier Eye doctors send a report about your eye health to your medical doctor (PCP, endocrinologist, or internist) and they use this information to tailor your diabetes treatment plan-providing useful feedback for your whole care team. One thing many people don’t know is that diabetic exams fall under medical insurance coverage, not vision insurance.
Rainier Eye is welcoming new patients for diabetic health exams as well as annual vision exams. Schedule online at www.RainierEye.com or call 360-506-5544. We look forward to seeing you!
