When Tim Foertsch moved to Corbett six years ago, it was his desire to be near extended family and also give his daughters the best education he could. Tim and wife Cary have enjoyed the small town atmosphere so much that they recently moved from one home to another within Corbett! A favorite detail Tim enjoys about the new home/property is the fact his girls Trinity, age 8 and Chassidy, age 7 now have plenty of space to run and play on their acreage. In fact, they have so much land, they are now getting some baby goats to start helping them with all the mowing! Being an artist when not at his day job, Tim recently turned a donated minivan into a "dogmobile" for "Dumball," a rolling scavenger hunt that will take him to Las Vegas this year. The event is to raise money for charities and this is his 4th year to be involved with about 30 others. The dogmobile will be auctioned off and sold. Tim screwed brown carpet to the entire exterior and even created "legs" that are screwed to the sides! Tim met up with neighbor Chris Tymoschuk a few years back and was inspired to explore his art a bit further. He is now involved with the yearly "Cracked Pots" show at the Edgefield with Cary's brother, creating art from recycled goods. Tim also stays busy volunteering for the Corbett Citizen's Patrol. Deputy Joe Graziano and others in our area monitor vandalism in the tourist areas of the Gorge. Having been busy with the recent move, Tim is looking forward to getting back to family karate lessons in Corbett with Mr. Russell. He appreciates the fact it is something they can all do and enjoy together. See a furry van driving around Corbett in the next few weeks that looks like a dog? No alarm, it is just Tim.
