Hood was empty except for the Camp Host on Wednesday, July 5, 2026.

Flecks of ash coated cars as smoke dulled the view of Mount Hood in the now-hazy communities of Rhododendron and Government Camp on Wednesday. As more than 2 million acres of Oregon burned, both communities were under a Level 1 (get ready) evacuation order, and it wasn’t hard to see, and smell, why.

That's a wrap on this year's Hillsboro Police Department Youth Soccer Camp. Over two weeks, our SROs, coaches, and volunteers got out on the field with students from Evergreen Middle School, South Meadows Middle School, R.A. Brown Middle School, and J.W. Poynter Middle School. We ran drills, played scrimmages, and took trips to Hillsboro Fire & Rescue and Nike World Headquarters. It was a fun two weeks, and the kids showed up ready to go. None of this would exist without Officer Edgar Garcia-Garfias, Hillsboro School Resource Officer. He started the camp, brought the coaches together, and was out on the field coaching both weeks. This camp doesn't happen without the rest of the people who gave their time. Boys week coaches: Walter Arevalo — CONMEBOL FIFA Associate Coach Pro License, Sport Management & Administration CIES Omar Garcia — W.L. Henry School Counselor and Hillsboro High School Coach Giovanni Calixtro — Glencoe High School Alumni and former USL/Portland Timbers Girls week coaches: Lisa Harings — Santos FC Director of Coaching Cathalina Anaya — Washington County Juvenile Counselor Victoria Garcia — Washington County Juvenile Counselor Amber Bonn — Hillsboro Police Records Specialist Mya Smith — Century High School, P.C.C, and Multnomah University Alumni Thanks to the local businesses that kept everyone fed all week: Lowe's, Baja Fresh, McDonald's, Pizza Schmizza, Chick-fil-A, Dick's Sporting Goods, and Target. And thanks to every kid who came out and played. We had a blast, and we'll see you next year. #HillsboroPolice #Hillsboro #YouthSoccerPhotos from Hillsboro Police Department's post
