 Celebrating 20 Years of the Spokane River Clean-Up | September 2023

By Lindsay Box

Last Saturday, fall finally graced the Inland Northwest with her presence for the most beautiful day for the 20th annual Spokane River Clean-Up. This beloved community tradition not only celebrated two decades of environmental stewardship, but it also showcased the unwavering commitment of the Spokane community to our beloved Spokane River. On this sunshiny day, over 400 participants rolled up their sleeves and set out to make a significant impact!

Connecting with Our Community

Connecting with Our Community

By Lindsay Box

One of the hardest parts of living through a global pandemic is the missed connections with members of your community. Back in the day, you would volunteer or attend an event and meet a new friend, a neighbor. You would realize how much you have in common, you might know similar people, and you could earn something new. The ability to create organic conversations and connections has been put on the back burner for well, almost two years. Although we are not in a post-pandemic world (and we may never be), the opportunity to connect with our community is slowly happening again - and we are all ready for it.
