Port Angeles sand sculpting planner does same for the world

FEDERAL WAY -- After planning the annual Windermere Sand Sculpture Classic in May, Doc Reiss of Port Angeles turned his sights to planning this year's world championships.

For the first time, the championship will take place in Federal Way, beginning this week.

Previously, the event was held in Harrison Hot Springs, B.C., but the classic faced closure because no one could run it this year.

Reiss, Charlie Beaulieu of Kingston and Suzanne Altamare of Daytona Beach, Fla., stepped up to the plate to run this year's world championship -- to which the Windermere classic is a qualifying round.

The Brahmaputra has also been inspiring poets and writers over the ages for its grandeur. Now the river beaches that has been untamed since long are all set to witness a never before exploit of its rich potentials.
