Good morning, this is your Bellingham Local Frequency for Sunday, October 12, 2025. Let's dive right in with what’s happening around town on this crisp fall day.First, if you’re feeling adventurous, there’s a heads-up from the National Weather Service: snow is expected in the Whatcom County high country above 5,000 feet for anyone heading into the backcountry—so if you’re planning a mountain getaway, pack accordingly and check those road conditions. Closer to sea level, it’s cloudy and a bit brisk, just right for cozy indoor activities but also perfect for those who aren’t put off by a little Pacific Northwest freshness.If you’re more in the mood for mushrooms than mountain trails, you’re in luck—the Northwest Mushroomers’ Annual Wild Mushroom Show takes over the Fishermen’s Pavilion at Zuanich Point Park from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. With hundreds of wild mushroom species on display and experts on hand, this is a must for nature lovers and foragers. General admission is just 10 bucks, and this show is always a fascinating deep dive into the fungi among us. If mushrooms spark your creativity, the Cordata Gallery is also wrapping up its exhibition of works by Joy Olney, “Pure Joy,” today until 4 p.m.For those with kids or nostalgia for childhood, the Meihua Chinese School’s Mid Autumn Festival at Bloedel Donovan Park’s Multipurpose Room offers games, crafts, and a glimpse into Chinese traditions from 2 to 4 p.m. Over at Village Books in Fairhaven, catch a bookstore reading from “The Reindeer of Chinese Gardens” from 4 to 5 p.m.—a great way to unwind before dinner. History buffs can join the Buried BellingHistory tour at Bayview Cemetery from 5 to 7 p.m., exploring the stories behind some of Bellingham’s most notable figures.Foodies, you’re not forgotten: Twin Sisters Mobile Market makes its weekly stop at Northwest Pawn on Birchwood Ave. from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., and the Hotel Leo’s popular Sunday Jazz Brunch runs all the way until 2 p.m. If you’re a fan of trivia and tropical drinks, Red Rum Tiki Bar hosts its weekly trivia night from 6 to 9 p.m. Want something more lively? Salsa dance classes at The Majestic Ballroom get your feet moving at 5:30 p.m. Or, for a bit of athletic competition, the Trails to Taps Relay takes runners from Lake Padden to Kulshan Trackside from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. today—perfect for spectators and participants alike.A quick public safety note: remember, outdoor burning restrictions are now lifted across Whatcom County, but officials are urging extreme caution—vegetation is still recovering from a long dry spell and fire risk remains. Meanwhile, if you’re out on the water or have a boat moored in a local marina, the county’s Division of Emergency Management is warning of forecast winds—double-check those lines.In the realm of sports, the Western Washington University volleyball team is riding high nationally, ranked #20 after a strong start. Unfortunately for Alaska visitors, their Nanooks volleyball team fell to Western in a recent match—local pride, indeed.Looking ahead, election season is heating up, with ballots set to mail out later this week. The League of Women Voters is publishing candidate interviews—great resource if you’re deciding how to vote. And Blaine City Council is gearing up for budget discussions tomorrow, so stay tuned for updates on how taxpayer dollars might be allocated in the coming year.That’s your quick spin around Bellingham for today. Whether you’re heading out for mushrooms, dancing, trivia, or simply exploring your own backyard, there’s plenty to do and see. This has been Bellingham Local Frequency. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.For more http://www.quietplease.aiGet the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI
