Go birding with staff from the Wenatchee River Institute at our campus by the Wenatchee River! All birding skill levels are welcome. Need binoculars? We have loaner binoculars that you can borrow.

We will enjoy birding this spring in Wenatchee on the second Thursday and in Leavenworth on the last Thursday of each month.

Trail difficulty level: beginner
Trail is wide enough for ADA access, but trails are gravel
Bathrooms available at the start and end of the walk

Meet outside the River Haus at 8am. This is a FREE event and no registration is needed.

PiE [Poetry in Ellensburg] is an open mic, where participants are each given 301 seconds (5 minutes + 1 second) to present their original writing, or that of a writer they admire. We are open to poetry, free verse, limerick, soliloquy, monologue, flash fiction, doggerel, (yours or Bukowski's). Must be 21 years of age.

A book club from the more adventurous side of your romance shelves! Does the idea of the monster under your bed excite rather than scare you? Like your love interests with more bite than bark? Do you look at Pyramid Head from Silent Hill and think "Yeah, he can get it?" This group is for you! Please note that due to the adult nature of the books we will be discussing, this club will be open to 18+ only. Hosted at Lee's Tahitian, on the second Tuesday of every month from 6-8 pm.

KPAC presents Season 1 of the groundbreaking TV series TWIN PEAKS on the big screen for the first time! Every Monday in January, we will be screening two episodes of the surreal crime drama created by David Lynch and Mark Frost. FBI Agent Dale Cooper travels to the small logging town of Twin Peaks to solve the murder of the seemingly innocent high schooler Laura Palmer. Almost nothing is as it seems, however, and the show’s sometimes eerie visuals, oddball characters, and wild dream sequences drive the point home. Sponsored by Orchard Farm Soap.
Episode 3: “Zen, or the Skill to Catch a Killer” ~ Agent Cooper demonstrates an unusual deductive technique for the Twin Peaks Sheriff’s Department.
Episode 4: “Rest in Pain” ~ The people of Twin Peaks gather together to attend the funeral of Laura Palmer.
Rated: TV-14 | 1 hr 34 min | Tickets: $8 Adult / Film Pass

Volunteers avail themselves monthly to help Kittitas County community members repair broken household items. Every second Saturday we meet at the IOOF Cemetery shop to repair lamps, toasters, mowers, blowers, grinders, binders, electronics, water fountains, chairs, tables, shirts, skirts, you name it! If you can bring it to us we'll try to repair it! We'll even help you sharpen your knives and tools! It may be the most fun you've ever had in a shop!
