Cooper parties will continue in Ariel
By Fran Kaiser The Daily News Staff Writer
ARIEL — The party will go on — whether D.B. Cooper is found or not. That assurance is from Laurel Fisher, owner of the Ariel Store and Tavern, where legend seekers gather each November to fete the famous skyjacker. "We'll probably have the party forever," said Laurel, who spent the morning hosting television crews from as far away as Los Angeles after some of Cooper's loot was found near Vancouver. Even if Cooper is found dead the party will continue as a memorial, she said. "It means something to everyone up here. It's a legend. He sort of put Ariel on the map." Authorities believe Cooper bailed out of the hijacked Boeing 727 near Lake Merwin in the area east of Woodland. Neither he nor $200,000 in loot was ever seen — until some of the money appeared Tuesday. The money caused excitement in the small community on the Lewis River near Merwin Dam. Despite the find, some Ariel residents still say maybe Cooper dropped some of his money, but got away. Laurel and her husband, David, bought the store 15 months ago and continued the traditional party started by the former owner. About 300 people showed up for last November's party. Some, perhaps, hoped Cooper himself might be lured to the celebration if he's alive. He's never shown, but he has an open invitation.
