Centralia College, the oldest continuously
operating community college in the state of Washington. Founded in 1925, the
college has a rich heritage of professional, technical, transfer, and basic
skills programs serving the community.

Seattle, and less than 30 minutes from Olympia,
Centralia is a rural community that provides a great setting for study, leisure,
and employment.
The college is on the I-5 corridor in a beautifully green area of forests and
farmland. Wide fertile valleys are bordered by picturesque Mt. Rainer and the
Cascade Range on the east, and the Willapa Hills on the west. Puget Sound and
Hood Canal to the north and the Columbia River and the famous Columbia River
Gorge and Mt. Saint Helens to the south are within a short commute from the
college.

CENTRAILIA'S
SEMINARY HILL NATURAL AREA is...
A quiet place to walk or run. The trails are maintained for careful walking.
(For safety and trail damage reasons, wheeled vehicles are banned by city
ordinance.)
A grand place for nature study. There is a wide variety of trees, shrubs and
leafy plants...some of the older trees date from about 1900. The low growing
plants are sensitive to foot traffic, so it's best to stay on trails.
Possibly a place to picnic...but littered natural areas aren't very natural. A
simple rule is to take out everything you take in. And fire is the worst enemy
of all. (Camping, guns of all sorts, and fires are also banned by city
ordinance.)
