  <body>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Volunteer garden party planned for Saturday&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;PROSSER -- Bearing garden tools and work gloves, volunteers will gather Saturday to spruce up the Prosser Community Playground. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Volunteers will work 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the playground, located in City Park on Seventh Street across from Prosser High School. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;They meet every year to reseal the wooden playground and perform some landscaping work, such as replanting trees, pulling weeds and replenishing the bark floor. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;More hands are welcome. Bring garden tools, gloves and some sanders if you have them, suggests Desiree Mains, a volunteer coordinator. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The playground was built in 2000 by volunteers and paid for by private donations under the direction of a paid engineer. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For more information, e-mail prosserplayground@yahoo.com. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Bake sale fundraiser Saturday in Naches&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;NACHES -- A yard and bake sale will be held for the benefit of a terminally ill Yakima native on Saturday from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. at 1612 Old Naches Highway. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Kirsten Schuler, 20, was recently diagnosed with terminal cancer.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Donations will be accepted at the sale or can be made payable to &amp;quot;Benefit Donation act for Kirsten Schuler&amp;quot; at any Wells Fargo Bank.
