Just across the street from Discovery Coast Real Estate things are moving quickly. The Lost Roo will be a great addition to the Long Beach Peninsula and just another reason to visit!

Speaking of reasons to be at the beach, check the beautiful townhomes at Coastal Ridge in Discovery Heights. There are currently two finished ocean view homes for sale at bargain prices, as well as two unfinished bay view homes. Save a bundle and finish one yourself. Contact Cheri or Charlie for more info!

The weather is absolutely gorgeous at the coast – come see for yourself!

CLAM DATES ANNOUNCED!

Fishery managers have tentatively scheduled three razor clam digs on morning tides in late March, with additional digging opportunities planned for April.

The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) will open four beaches for clam digging if the Washington Department of Health certifies that razor clam samples tested for marine toxins are safe to eat.

If approved, Twin Harbors and Mocrocks will open March 27-29, while Long Beach and Copalis will open March 28-29 only. All digging on those beaches must be completed by noon.

Even though thousands of diggers came out for the February opener, enough clams remain for several more digs, said Dan Ayres, coastal shellfish manager for WDFW.

And finally, news from the Long Beach Visitors Bureau about yet another scam.

WASHINGTON – The U.S. Small Business Administration issued a scam alert today to small businesses, warning them not to respond to letters falsely claiming to have been sent by the SBA asking for bank account information in order to qualify them for federal tax rebates.

The fraudulent letters were sent out with what appears to be an SBA letterhead to small businesses across the country, advising recipients that they may be eligible for a tax rebate under the Economic Stimulus Act, and that SBA is assessing their eligibility for such a rebate. The letter asks the small business to provide the name of its bank and account number.

These letters have not been sent by or authorized by the SBA, and all small businesses are strongly advised not to respond to them.

The scheme is similar in many ways to e-mail scams often referred to as “phishing” that seek personal data and financial account information that enables another party to access and individual’s bank accounts or to engage in identity theft.

The SBA is working with the SBA Office of Inspector General to investigate this matter. The Office of Inspector General asks that anyone who receives such a letter report it to the OIG Fraud Line at 1 (800) 767-0385, or e-mail at OIGHotline@sba.gov.

That’s all for this time. I’d love to have you follow me on Facebook and Twitter!
