Episode Synopsis

Good morning, this is your Spokane Local Frequency for Sunday, August third, twenty twenty-five. If you were out and about yesterday, you may have noticed a smoky haze over Spokane Valley as fire crews responded to several grass fires along the Centennial Trail, including a four-acre blaze at East Coyote Rock Drive. The Department of Natural Resources reports that the fire is now lined, and officials are still investigating the cause. Fire crews worked hard to contain the spread and ensure residents’ safety. If you’re out on the trails this weekend, stay alert for emergency crews and always be fire wise.Turning to community events, there’s no shortage of ways to get into the summer spirit around Spokane. The Inlander and local community calendars are bursting with things to do. If you’re looking to challenge your mind and your sense of adventure, the Spokane Showdown Amazing Race and Tour is happening, where participants solve clues and tackle wacky tasks while exploring some hidden gems around town. For anyone craving more art, music, and culture, check out the Yes, And Art Gallery Opening and the continuing Celebrating the Soul of Blues music series downtown. Theater fans can soak in performances at the Blue Door Theatre or catch the last showing of Torch Song at Hamilton Studio tonight.For families, Riverfront Park is the place to be with the Family Promise Fun Run bringing folks together for a good cause, blending fitness and fun under the August sun. As we look to the week ahead, keep your eyes on First Interstate Center for the Arts, which has a robust lineup for the fall, including Stardew Valley Symphony in September and George Lopez’s comedy show coming soon. If planning ahead is your thing, circle your calendars for Millwood Daze in Spokane Valley on the twenty-third and the University High School Fall Craft Fair in October for all your handmade and local goods.Outdoors enthusiasts, take note: while some regional fishing closures are in effect on the Upper Columbia, plenty of parks and river trails are open for day use, just remember the fire advisories and keep an eye on air quality. If your Sunday calls for a quieter start, many local faith communities are streaming services, like the ten a.m. online gathering with Summit Spokane.Finally, a moment of local history: this week marks the anniversary of Glenrose residents uniting to preserve community character, a reminder of Spokane’s knack for coming together in the face of change. That’s a quick look at what's happening and what’s ahead in Spokane today. This has been Spokane 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
