We start with a safety reminder this morning after a close call in Spokane Valley yesterday. Fire officials responded to a residential fire on South Timberline Drive where a homeowner was using a propane torch, commonly known as a weed burner, for yard work. The torch ignited some arborvitae, those evergreen shrubs popular in local landscaping, and the flames quickly spread to a neighbor's vinyl fence. Embers from the fire even sparked two additional small fires across the street. While no injuries were reported, the incident damaged a vinyl fence, melted home siding, and scorched landscaping on multiple properties. Fire officials want to remind everyone that if you're using propane torches for yard maintenance this spring, make sure you have a clear perimeter around your work area and keep a fire extinguisher nearby. It's a good reminder as we head into the warmer months when yard work picks up. On a brighter note, this Saturday is a perfect day to get outside and enjoy everything Spokane has to offer. If you're looking for things to do this weekend, the Gonzaga campus area is always a great spot for a walk, and the Riverfront Park is ideal for families with activities for all ages. The weather should cooperate nicely, so it's a great time to explore some of our local trails or visit the downtown farmers market if it's running this weekend. We're also heading into a busy season for community events across the region, so keep your eyes on local listings for festivals, farmers markets, and outdoor concerts that start popping up as we move deeper into spring and head toward summer. Whether you're a longtime Spokane resident or new to the area, there's always something happening in our community. Remember to stay safe out there, especially when working with any tools or equipment around your home. Check your smoke detectors, keep those fire extinguishers accessible, and if you see something that needs reporting, don't hesitate to contact local authorities. This has been Spokane Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.

If youre a baseball fan, catch the next home game soon; these performances are fueling excitement and drawing crowds that boost our local sports scene. Over in Spokane Valley, kudos to University High School student Else Hjorten, who snagged the April You Rock! Community Recognition Award from Mayor Padden.

Its a smart move as wildfire season looms, helping families practice quick exits and stay safe in our fire-prone hills. Meanwhile, Spokane police nabbed a driver recklessly tearing through streets in a stolen vehicle with a flat tire after a city employee spotted it and dialed 911 yesterday. That arrest underscores how vigilant eyes on our roads keep everyone secure. Shifting to brighter community wins, the city is eyeing 1.2 million dollars from the West Quadrant Tax Increment Financing district to fund Habitat for Humanity in rehabbing up to seven homes in the West Central neighborhood. This means turning rundown spots into stable, affordable ownership options for families, boosting neighborhood vibes and tackling our housing crunch. Local resident Isaac Harmsen cheers the push for more affordable spots amid rising costs, though hes curious how itll play out on property values. The city council votes on it May 11th, so your voice could shape lasting change. Politics is heating up too, with Spokane County candidates gearing up to file next week for key seats like sheriff, prosecutor, treasurer, and commissioners in two districts. Incumbent Congressman Michael Baumgartner has his paperwork in for District 5, while Mayor Lisa Brown is already fundraising for reelection. Over in Coeur dAlene, after a tense council deadlock and mayoral drama, they finally picked Greg Jaeger as the new police chief, stabilizing leadership there. On a somber note, were mourning John D. Black, a Gonzaga grad and Spokane native killed in a car crash during a CIA operation in Mexico last weekend. His story reminds us of the risks our locals take abroad. Federally, five young suspects aged 19 to 21 face charges in a year-long probe into gang weapons trafficking tied to the Indian Pride group, with guns bought legally in Montana fueling four eastern Washington shootings, including a deadly one at the Montgomery Maverick gas station. Sheriff John Knowles says the hunts ongoing, making our streets safer step by step. Also, a California couple nabbed in Liberty Lake faces child murder charges after a 14-year-old girls death, showing no corner of the region is off-limits for justice. For feel-good vibes, Guardian Angel Academy in Spokane Valley scored 1.6 million in state grants to expand childcare, refurbishing an old Felts Field school to double spots by next summer.

Folks, kick off your day with a heads-up on the weather thats shaping our plans today. Expect partly cloudy skies with daytime highs in the low to mid-50s, but its a bit unsettled out there lingering winds from the southwest at 10 to 20 miles per hour, plus isolated mountain thunderstorms and showers possible into this afternoon before things taper off by Friday. Lows dip to around 41 degrees tonight, so grab that light jacket for evening walks along the riverfront. Sunrise was at 5:47 this morning, with sunset at 7:49, giving us plenty of daylight to enjoy.[2][5] In bigger local news, Spokane County just relaunched its Alert Spokane emergency system after a cyberattack wiped out nearly half its data. Partnering with a new provider, theyre back online and stronger, ready to keep us all safe with faster, more reliable alerts for everything from wildfires to severe weather. Sign up today if you havent its a game-changer for staying ahead of risks in our neck of the woods.[1] Outdoors lovers, brace for some tough news from the Washington Department of Natural Resources. State budget cuts totaling about 8 million over the past two years are forcing closures of recreation sites, including full shutdowns at 11 campgrounds like Rock Lakes right here in our region.

Kicking off with some action from yesterday that still has folks talking, firefighters in Spokane Valley battled a massive blaze at a large single-story shop building in the 15200 block of East 24th Avenue. Crews arrived around 3:24 p.m. to heavy flames pouring out all sides, with thick smoke visible from afar, so they called in extra resources right away. Facing tricky winds and worries about the structure collapsing, they switched to a defensive attack, protecting two nearby houses and another shed that were in the fire's path. East 24th was shut down from Sullivan to South Progress Road while they knocked it down, and luckily no one or any animals were hurt. The Spokane Valley Fire Department is digging into what sparked it, but for now, drivers should watch for any lingering closures as cleanup continues, keeping our neighborhoods safe one call at a time. Shifting to lighter news, if you're itching to spruce up your space this weekend, the Spokane Home and Garden Show is celebrating its 50th year right now at the Spokane Convention Center, running through tomorrow, April 12th. This milestone event packs in expert demos, fresh ideas for landscaping, home renos, and everything from indoor plants to outdoor patios, perfect for dreaming big as spring blooms. Grab the family, snag some deals, and chat with local pros who can turn your backyard visions into reality, all while supporting our community's vibrant home scene. Over in north Spokane, a steamy scare at the Walmart had neighbors dialing 911 yesterday, thinking flames were licking the roof. Turns out it was just harmless steam from routine maintenance, but Spokane Fire crews checked it out quick to ease minds and confirm all clear, reminding us how fast word spreads in tight-knit spots like ours. Across the border in Kootenai County, deputies nabbed a man who smashed windows at their sheriff's office, a wild outburst that's got everyone glad for swift action to keep public safety first. Meanwhile, DNR teams are gearing up for fire season with prep drills, crucial as dry conditions loom, and local farmers are feeling the pinch from immigration policy shifts affecting their workforce, hitting our food supply chains right here at home.

We're starting off another beautiful day in the Inland Northwest with plenty of sunshine and mild temperatures in the low 50s right now. If you're heading out, grab a light jacket because we're expecting highs in the low 60s this afternoon with calm winds across most of the region, though the Okanogan Valley and western Columbia Basin could see a bit of gustiness later on. We're in the middle of a gorgeous stretch of weather right now, so enjoy it while it lasts. Forecasters are tracking an active pattern moving in this weekend with a significant chance of rain, around 40 to 80 percent depending on where you are. There's even potential for thunderstorms Friday night into Saturday afternoon, so plan accordingly if you've got outdoor activities in mind. Sunday looks wet as well with cooler temperatures settling in early next week. On the community calendar, the Spokane City Council is hosting a Community Day today to showcase the diverse abilities of our residents, so that's a great opportunity to get involved and celebrate what makes our community special. In legal news, the federal courthouse is focused on a motion to dismiss charges against three of the Spokane Nine protesters tomorrow at a hearing scheduled for April 14th. These defendants are challenging whether a Facebook post announcing a protest constitutes federal conspiracy, arguing their nonviolent civil disobedience is protected speech. Six others from the group had already taken plea deals, but these three are pushing back, saying their actions in front of the ICE office last June were time-honored methods of protest, not criminal conspiracy. Meanwhile, the Spokane Valley City Council is considering a ban on cryptocurrency kiosks as authorities work to combat rising fraud. These machines have become a tool for scammers targeting vulnerable people, with victims losing significant money to fraudulent schemes. The council will weigh in on this proposal soon. Looking ahead to next Tuesday, April 21st, Spokane Valley is hosting Community Conversations from 5 to 6 p.m. at City Hall, where they'll highlight the city's participation in regional safety initiatives. It's a chance to connect with local leadership and learn more about programs affecting your neighborhood. That's what's happening in your Spokane community today.

While investigating a suspicious car left running near 400 East 16th Avenue, they uncovered evidence of garage thefts, including stolen keys, and arrested a 42-year-old suspect on charges of burglary, animal cruelty, and more. But the real star? A tiny 8-to-10-week-old puppy whining from the back seat, abandoned for 15 hours without water. Officers rushed the little one to the Spokane Humane Society, giving it a second chance at a loving home and reminding us all that even in tough calls, compassion shines through.[1][6] Shifting to sadder news, Spokane County detectives are seeking your help in a heartbreaking theft at Fairmount Memorial Home on North Government Way.

Walton at 509-477-3478, case 2026-10038720. Its a stark reminder of how these acts rip at our communitys heart, disrupting final resting places for families.[4][7] Firefighters tackled a house fire yesterday on Sharp and Hamilton Street, with crews working hard to contain it and keep neighbors safe. No word yet on causes or injuries, but it underscores why we stay vigilant with home safety as spring heats up.[3] Weather-wise, after gusty winds and cooler temps yesterday dropping us to the low 60s, today brings sunny skies with a high near 62 degrees and winds at 10 to 20 mph from the west-northwest. Expect mostly clear nights down to 34, then warming to the mid-60s tomorrow and low 70s by Fridayperfect for outdoor plans before weekend showers roll in.[2][5] Looking ahead, mark your calendars for Spring Clean Week, April 27 to May 1, where downtown volunteers can pitch in during lunch hours to spruce up our streets and parks. Its a fun way to build community pride and enjoy the blooming season. Also, excitement is building for the 2026 Hoopfest, with the official poster out nowget a sneak peek and start planning your teams for the biggest basketball bash around.[3][9] Stay connected to these stories impacting our neighborhoods, and have a fantastic Spokane day.

Community spirit is strong after a break-in at beloved Dear Coco Café, where owner Celeste Shaw is battling health challenges amid the setback, but neighbors are rallying with support to keep this local gem brewing.

Business owners are ping-ponging between the city and operators like Diamond Parking for clarity, so if you're parking there, double-check your bill to avoid surprises that could pinch your wallet on shopping trips.[1] On the justice front, Spokane Municipal Court is swamped with a record case backlog and too few public defenders after state limits cut their caseloads, impacting over 90% of defendants who can't afford private attorneys. Delays or dismissals loom, but the city is fighting back with law student interns and pushes for more funding, ensuring fairer hearings that keep our streets safer long-term.[1] Traffic alert: East Upriver Drive saw a car crash yesterday with heavy police presence and full closure; stay tuned for updates as crews investigate to prevent future hazards on your commute.[4] Looking ahead, Shades of Motherhood kicks off Black Maternal Health Week events today and through April 17, spotlighting vital wellness talks that strengthen families across Spokane.[6] Spokane County also proclaimed April Child Abuse Prevention Month, urging parents, educators, and agencies to collaborate via teams like the Child Abuse Multidisciplinary group for safer kids.[9] And soccer fans, our Spokane Zephyr FC fell to Dallas Trinity FC at the Cotton Bowl yesterday, but spring practices for Washington State Football are heating up, fueling local pride.[10] Plus, a $726K federal grant means Spokane County deputies gear up with robots, acoustic devices, and drone defenses for the 2026 World Cup in Seattle, boosting security here too via fan zones and overtime support.[7] Whether hunting eggs or supporting local spots like the reopening Doyle's vintage soda fountain on Boone, make today count.

Spokane kicked off the week with some big city council moves that are already sparking conversations across our neighborhoods. In a unanimous vote, the council approved an ordinance banning the sale of kratom within city limits, introduced by Mayor Lisa Brown to protect public health from the unregulated herbal supplement thats been linked to serious side effects. They didnt stop there, passing measures to create immigration enforcement free zones on public property and blocking private leases for detention facilities, aiming to make our community a safer, more welcoming place for families regardless of background. These changes connect directly to real lives, offering reassurance to immigrants while sparking debate on balancing safety and sanctuary ideals. Over at Gonzaga University, leaders are stepping up against online slurs and threats targeting communities of color, with the Black Student Union pushing for stronger action. Its a reminder that healthy connections start on campus and ripple out to strengthen our whole city. Meanwhile, Newport just reported losing $330,000 to scammers posing as their insurance provider, a stark warning for all of us to double-check those calls and protect our wallets. On a brighter note, get your golf game ready, folks. Downriver Golf Course swings open for the season this Friday, March 6, joining The Creek at Qualchan and Esmeralda, which launched yesterday. Perfect timing with spring teasing us, so grab your clubs and hit the fairways for some fresh air and friendly competition. Lander Restaurant Week is hopping too, with three-course deals at spots across the area, ideal for date nights or trying new flavors without breaking the bank. Weather-wise, we caught that stunning lunar eclipse in the early hours, and meteorologists say mild temps stick around, though watch for those rising gas prices hitting our pumps harder than the national average amid global tensions. Gonzaga Bulldogs fans, keep the energy high as the season heats up. For music lovers, rock out with upcoming shows like Two Feet hitting nearby stages soon. Stay connected, Spokane.

What a perfect Saturday to kick off the weekend with sunshine and temps climbing into the high 40s, maybe even the 50s in spots like Coeur dAlene and Deer Park. Meteorologists are calling it springlike weather, dry through Tuesday, so grab those jackets and get out there before rain sneaks in midweek. This warmth means more than just comfortable strolls, though, it ties right into why locals are flocking to the Spokane Home and Yard Show at the Spokane Convention Center, packed wall-to-wall through the weekend with waterfalls, putting greens, and cutting-edge landscaping that could transform your backyard into an oasis. Organizers boast its the regions biggest, four-day event, spotlighting fresh home improvement ideas you wont see anywhere else, perfect for sparking that next project as we shake off winter. Shifting to headlines, Spokane police wrapped up details on last months double-decker bus crash under a low viaduct, citing driver Wayne Morgan for negligent driving after he followed a faulty STA GPS right into trouble. The good news? Those buses are back with beefed-up safety audits, rerouting under tricky spots to keep riders secure and commutes smooth. Over in Lower Crossing, neighbors like Martis Nenno are rallying against a proposed housing boom that could swell their historic streets by 60 percent, worrying about narrow roads clogging emergency access and overwhelming the riverside charm. The city insists developers will widen paths and add hydrants, but residents want tailored rules, not one-size-fits-all, and you can weigh in on the 20-year comprehensive plan at planspokane.org to shape Spokaness growth your way. Tragedy struck Spokane Valley too, with a hit-and-run pedestrian death near Pines and Eismeer, the 35-year-old driver now facing vehicular homicide charges, a stark reminder to drive vigilant. Firefighters meanwhile contained two accidental blazes in west Spokane yesterday, no one home, quick work keeping damage minimal. Across the border, Coeur dAlene heroes like firefighter Dave Tyisdall earned Idahos Medal of Honor for bravery on Canfield Mountain, honoring everyday courage that saves lives. Tonight, sports fans, catch the Spokane Chiefs after their shutout win, or root for the Zags needing a big rivalry victory at Saint Marys. Cowboy Ian Munsick saddles up at First Interstate Center at 7, Club 90s heats up Knitting Factory at 9 for Heated Rivalry Night, WAC Indoor Track fills The Podium, and Inlanders Restaurant Week means deals at spots like Durkins, tasting downtown icons without breaking the bank.

What a heartfelt way to kick off Valentines weekend here in Spokane, with families rallying around each other after a devastating house fire in Stevens County shook us all this week. Six people were inside when flames tore through the home, collapsing the entire upstairs into the basement and leaving two loved ones presumed dead, including a brave family friend who ran back in to save 89-year-old Iona Boyer. Neighbors are stepping up with donations of money and clothes, helping the survivors rebuild amid the grief, a true testament to our community's unbreakable spirit that turns tragedy into collective healing.

On a brighter note, East Valley School District is regrouping after voters turned down their big bond measure, with Superintendent Brian Talbot calling it a tough pill but vowing to keep improving classrooms through capital levies, because our kids deserve top-notch spaces no matter what. Meanwhile, PIER Spokane's vital program linking over a thousand folks to healthcare and housing since 2023 is pausing without fresh grants, urging us all to support local efforts that bridge real gaps in daily life. Up north, Northern Lakes Fire District's groundbreaking for a new Garwood station promises faster 911 responses amid booming growth, potentially slashing insurance rates for nearby homeowners and proving proactive planning saves precious seconds. Tonight, treat your sweetheart or squad to laughs at Spokane Comedy Club with Chris Franjola headlining, or catch the Boozy Brunch vibe tomorrow. Music lovers, Hayes Carll's We're Only Human Tour rocks at 9pm with Ryan Montbleau opening, while the Sploinky Rave pulses for dance floor energy. And for pure magic, Disneys The Lion King roars onto the First Interstate Center stage at 2pm and 7:30pm, a family spectacle thats already got everyone talking. This has been Spokane Local Frequency.

First up, a bizarre scene shook up the morning commute on I-90 near Altamont and Freya around 4 a.m. KREM 2 caught exclusive video of a mystery person clinging to the back of an empty AMR ambulance as it sped eastbound. Drivers honked and flashed lights to alert the crew, who pulled over safely, but the rider vanished before Washington State Patrol arrived. AMR called it an extremely rare incident with no patient on board, reminding us all to stay vigilant on those freeways because one wrong move could turn a wild story into tragedy.[1] Shifting to North Spokane, newly filed court documents are shedding light on last weeks double homicide at an apartment complex. Witnesses described two masked men bursting in around 11:30 p.m. on February 4th, sparking a fight over what seemed like a gun hidden under a blanket. Isaac Tucker and Derek Alford were fatally shot during the chaos, with shell casings found at the scene and six people, including a child, inside at the time. Police have a person of interest but released him after hospital treatment for head injuries, stressing its an isolated case with no ongoing threat. The Major Crimes Unit is digging deeper, so neighbors, keep those eyes open and doors locked.[1] In brighter news, a Spokane County fugitive wanted here got nabbed by U.S. Marshals on Kauai, Hawaii, proving justice has a long reach and a tropical twist.[3] Weather-wise, enjoy these mid-40s today, but bundle up overnight as temps dip near freezing. Clouds roll in tomorrow, paving the way for valley rain and mountain snow by Friday night into Saturday perfect for skiers eyeing fresh powder.[1] Tonight, dive into local vibes. Catch Chris Franjola at Spokane Comedy Club starting at 7 p.m. for laughs that hit close to home, or head to The Big Dipper for Weeping Slit with openers Viscerectomy, Tannerite, and FTS rocking out at 7. Zola welcomes mister sister from 8 p.m. for dynamic tunes to groove the night away.[4][7][8] And dont miss Stop the Bleed training at Spokane Central Library at 1:15 p.m. today learn life-saving skills that could make you a hero in seconds.[6] Looking ahead, Disneys The Lion King roars into First Interstate Center for the Arts at 7:30 p.m., while Candlelight Queen vs. ABBA glows at Davenport Hotel on Valentines Day from 6:30 p.m. tickets from 46 bucks for that romantic sparkle.[2][10] College sports fans, check schedules for hoops action through the 19th as teams gear up for playoffs.[5] Stay safe, get out there, and connect with our vibrant scene.

Kick off your Saturday with the latest buzz from our city, where community spirit shines even through the winter chill. Tragedy struck North Spokane this week when police responded to a double homicide at an apartment complex, the first of the year and a stark reminder of the work ahead for safer streets. Officers arrested suspect Mickey Wheatley on second-degree murder charges after gunfire erupted around 11:30pm, leaving two dead; he's recovering in the hospital before facing court. Detectives assure us this was isolated with no ongoing threat, but it underscores how quickly neighborhoods pull together in tough times.[1][5] Meanwhile, Spokane Police Chief Kevin Hall shared bright spots in his strategic plan: use-of-force incidents dropped 39% last year, no fatalities in those encounters, and a full year without officer-involved shootings for the first time since 2008. Compassionate policing downtown connected over 1400 unhoused folks to services and shelter, though Hall stresses housing shortages mean it's a public health challenge, not just a police one.[3] On a hopeful note, construction crews are clearing space at Cedar and Boone for Spokane County's new Path recovery center, set to open in 2027 with 24-hour crisis care, sobering services, and mental health support under one roof. This multimillion-dollar hub will transform lives by diverting people from jails to real recovery. MultiCare also settled a $3.7 million lawsuit over patient safety and billing issues, pushing for better healthcare accountability here.[1][3] City Council made waves too, passing an ordinance to give tenants more time and dignity before evictions with pay-or-vacate notices, aiming for fairer housing justice amid rising costs. Theyre also advancing immigration-free zones on city property to build trust without aiding federal enforcement, as Chief Hall confirmed local cops cant and wont collaborate there.[3][7] Tonight, dive into fun: Disneys The Lion King roars back at the First Interstate Center for the Arts with shows at 2pm and 7:30pm, bringing the Serengeti to life with soaring music and stunning puppetsperfect for families dreaming big. Reggae rockers The Expendables hit the Knitting Factory at 8pm for high-energy vibes, and the Leadership Lights the Way Gala sparkles at Northern Quest Resort and Casino, honoring local leaders with auctions and laughs hosted by Tom Sherry.

Mon, 12 Jan 2026 09:58:23 -0000 trailer Inception Point AI Good morning, this is your Spokane Local Frequency for January 12th. Kicking off the day, Washington States 2026 legislative session fires up right now in Olympia, running a full 60 days with the spotlight on the state budget and infrastructure fixes that could pump real money into our roads and schools here in Spokane. But heres a game-changer for local shoppers and cashiers: Representative April Berg just dropped House Bill 2334 to tackle the feds ditching the penny. It sets clear rules for rounding cash totals to the nearest nickel, like dropping 1 or 2 cents down or bumping 3, 4, 6 or 7 up to 5, while 8 or 9 cents rounds to 10. No changes for cards or apps, just smoother checkouts at your favorite corner stores, cutting confusion and those pesky errors that hit small businesses hardest. Berg says itll make transitions seamless, and with sessions underway, keep an eye on how this lands for everyday transactions around town.

Spokane is waking up to a winter weekend that is all about getting out, getting cozy, and making the most of the season. If you are downtown today, Riverfront Park is one of the best spots to feel that winter-in-the-city energy. The Numerica Skate Ribbon is in full swing with public skating and plenty of themed sessions on the calendar over the next couple of weeks, including Friday night music and lights and free skate rental nights coming up on select Tuesdays. It is a good time to grab those tickets or plan a family outing while the ice is in its prime and the Learn to Skate and figure skating coaching sessions continue through the month. Just a short walk away, the Fox Theater is closing out a big weekend with the Banff Centre Mountain Film Festival World Tour. Spokane has been hosting this mountain and adventure film showcase for more than three decades, and today is the final afternoon of the three day run, with doors opening midafternoon and a fresh lineup of films celebrating wild places, endurance, and environmental stewardship. Proceeds from a special VIP night this weekend are supporting local groups like Dishman Hills Conservancy, Spokane Riverkeeper, and other land and water nonprofits, so if you are going, you are also giving back to the trails and rivers you love. Over at the Spokane Arena, the spotlight is on horsepower of a very different kind. Professional Bull Riders are in town with the Pendleton Whisky Velocity Tour, bringing some of the top riders on the circuit together with some of the rankest bulls for two nights of competition. Tickets start at fan friendly prices, with VIP packages offering on the dirt photo ops and concierge service for those who want the full arena experience. Looking a bit ahead, keep an eye on downtown for more winter culture: candlelight concerts are set to bring 90s themed string tributes to Riverside Place later this month, adding a warm, nostalgic glow to those cold January evenings. And community centers around Spokane Valley are filling their late January calendars with banquets, dances, and private events, so check ahead if you are planning a gathering of your own. This has been Spokane Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.

After a week of fast changing winter weather, Spokane is waking up to cold, slick conditions, especially on hills and side streets. City crews have been running targeted plow and deicer routes instead of a full city plow, focusing on arterials, trouble spots, and neighborhoods that saw the heaviest overnight snow. Drivers are being urged to slow down, leave extra room, and watch for slush and black ice through the morning commute, after dozens of crashes were reported across Spokane County and nearby Kootenai County during the last storm. If you are looking to get outside safely today, Riverfront Park is one of the big hubs of activity. The Numerica Skate Ribbon is hosting ice skating lessons, where coaches will walk skaters of all ages through the fundamentals and help you build confidence on the ice. It is a chance to burn off some cabin fever, take in river views, and let kids wobble their way into a new winter hobby. Outdoor lovers also have a big indoor option tonight. The Banff Centre Mountain Film Festival continues its three night run at the Fox Theater downtown, part of a 50th anniversary world tour celebrating mountain culture and adventure. Spokane has been a stop for decades, and tonight’s program features a fresh mix of climbing epics, ski films, and environmental stories. A special VIP event supports local nonprofits like the Spokane Symphony, Dishman Hills Conservancy, and Spokane Riverkeeper, so your movie night can also give back to the trails and rivers you love. On the civic side, one of the most visible gatherings today will be the ICE OUT For Good protest at B A Clark Park in northwest Spokane from 2 to 4 p.m. Organizers are calling for changes to federal immigration enforcement and are inviting participants to bring signs, phones to record stories, and food donations, with free soup and rolls offered in return. It is billed as a peaceful, community centered event. If you are more in the mood for laughter than activism, the Spokane Comedy Club is hosting comedian Collin Moulton tonight at 7 p.m., a chance to shake off the winter blues with a night out downtown.

Spokane is waking up under the grip of a powerful winter storm this morning, and travel is the big story. A snow squall that moved through last night brought intense bursts of snow, gusty winds, and sudden whiteout conditions, triggering crashes and bringing westbound I 90 near the Four Lakes and Cheney area to a standstill.[1][3] The National Weather Service has warned that wet roads can quickly turn to black ice, especially on bridges and overpasses, so if you are commuting today, give yourself extra time, slow down, and be ready for rapidly changing visibility.[1][3] This storm is also affecting stretches of Highway 195 and 395, so rural commuters and freight traffic are feeling the impact as well.[1] If you are looking for ways to stay warm and still enjoy the city, there is plenty happening indoors. River Park Square is rolling out its RESET event series this month, focused on self care, wellness, and fitness to help Spokane reset after the holidays. Expect a mix of activities, pop up experiences, and wellness themed offerings around the mall, a nice way to get moving without braving the ice too long outside.[8] On the north side tonight, Twigs Bistro North is hosting the Titus 2 Women’s Ministry Celebrate Jesus gathering from 6 to 8 p.m. on East Farwell Road, offering food, fellowship, and a chance to connect in a smaller community setting.[4] For some laughs, the Spokane Comedy Club downtown has comedian Collin Moulton headlining tonight, kicking off a three night run of high energy, family friendly stand up that is perfect for shaking off the winter blues.[2][7] If live music is more your vibe, Zola Restaurant and Live Music Bar has Frances Browne on stage this evening from 8 to 11. Expect a storytelling heavy set with a cozy, downtown lounge atmosphere, ideal for a snowy night out.[5] Students should know that at Spokane Community College, the Orthodox Christian Club is meeting early this afternoon in Main Building 1, room R202, giving campus folks a place to gather, talk, and decompress between classes.[6] With the snow still causing trouble, today is a good day to check on neighbors, support local spots, and keep it slow on the roads.

Kicking off the day with a sigh of relief from Spokane Valley, where deputies wrapped up a tense hours-long standoff on Monday evening without anyone getting hurt. It started as a welfare check on 57-year-old Jeffrey B. Hanson in the 11000 block of East 3rd Avenue, but quickly escalated when reports came in that he'd pointed a gun at someone and was armed to the teeth, talking about forcing a showdown with police. SWAT swooped in, negotiators talked him down, and by 7:10 pm, Hanson surrendered peacefully. They seized 12 firearms, two air rifles, holsters, and piles of ammo, booking him for felony assault and displaying a weapon. It's a stark reminder of how crisis intervention teams can turn potential tragedy into a safe resolution, keeping our neighborhoods secure.[1] Shifting to brighter news, today's packed with ways to connect and get involved. Right now at Spokane Falls Community College, the DSHS Mobile Unit is on campus from 8 am to 3 pm in the SUB Lounge, offering direct help with benefits, applications, and support services—perfect if you or someone you know needs a hand navigating state resources.[6] Entrepreneurs, don't miss the Contracting Coffee Hour at 8 am, hosted by Startup Spokane and Washington APEX, where you can sip java and network on landing government contracts to grow your business.[8] Tonight, shake off the winter chill at the Spokane Comedy Club's Funny-4-Food Open Mic Night—it's free, running through early February, so grab friends for laughs and local talent that always delivers fresh energy.[2] Looking ahead, bundle up for Riverfront Park's Cheap Skate Tuesdays tomorrow with free rentals, or mark January 14th for Skate Night with the Spokane Chiefs—free skating, pizza, player meet-and-greets, and swag at the Numerica Skate Ribbon.[4] Thrill-seekers, the Banff Centre Mountain Film Festival hits the Fox Theater January 9th through 11th, marking its 50th year with epic adventure flicks that celebrate our wild backyard, plus a VIP event Saturday supporting local groups like Spokane Riverkeepers and Inland NW Land Conservancy.[7] On the community front, Spokane's gearing up for the annual homeless count January 27th through February 2nd by the Regional Continuum of Care, a key snapshot to shape real solutions for those on our streets.[3] Weather-wise, expect mostly cloudy skies with temps in the upper 30s and possible light snow flurries adding 1 to 3 inches—drive safe out there.[5] Gaming fans, Sage's Portal Board Game Cafe has weekly Flesh and Blood nights tonight from 6 pm, blending strategy with fun rivalry.[10] Whether you're building connections, chasing laughs, or adventuring indoors, Spokane's buzzing with opportunities that strengthen our community one story at a time.

Around the Inland Northwest today, many folks are waking up to a chilly, cloudy Christmas morning. Spokane is sitting in the low 40s with highs expected in the upper 40s and lows near the upper 30s, so it is a good day for a warm coat and maybe an extra layer if you are heading out for a walk, a visit with family, or some holiday sightseeing around Riverfront Park. If you are looking for ways to give back today, several local organizations are welcoming volunteers to help serve holiday meals, deliver warm clothing, and check in on neighbors who might be spending the day alone. Christmas has become a big day of service for many in our community, and shelters and outreach groups are especially grateful for help with food preparation, cleanup, and donation sorting. Even a couple of hours can make a real difference for people experiencing homelessness or food insecurity this winter. A quick note on local government and services: Spokane Valley facilities at CenterPlace Regional Event Center and City Hall are closed today for the Christmas holiday, with closures running through much of December 26 as well, so plan ahead if you were hoping to take care of permits or other in person business. Essential services, including public safety and emergency response, remain on duty as usual. Looking beyond today, there is plenty to do as Spokane eases from Christmas into the New Year week. Tomorrow night, downtown comes alive at the First Interstate Center for the Arts with Rain, a Tribute to the Beatles, bringing classic hits and a bit of British invasion nostalgia to Spokane Falls Boulevard at 7:30 p.m. Beatles fans can expect a full stage production that is family friendly and a fun way to keep the holiday spirit going. Families can also look ahead to A Charlie Brown Christmas Live on Stage, coming to the First Interstate Center on December 29. Doors open at 6 p.m. with the show at 7. It is a chance to introduce kids to the timeless Peanuts story, complete with music, the scraggly little tree, and that message about what the season is really all about. And as you map out your early January, keep an eye on downtowns First Friday scene. Local artists, live painting, and a rotating creative showdown help keep winter evenings vibrant and give you a chance to support Spokane talent while you browse, sip, and stroll.

Christmas has become a big day of service for many in our community, and shelters and outreach groups are especially grateful for help with food preparation, cleanup, and donation sorting. Even a couple of hours can make a real difference for people experiencing homelessness or food insecurity this winter. A quick note on local government and services: Spokane Valley facilities at CenterPlace Regional Event Center and City Hall are closed today for the Christmas holiday, with closures running through much of December 26 as well, so plan ahead if you were hoping to take care of permits or other in person business. Essential services, including public safety and emergency response, remain on duty as usual. Looking beyond today, there is plenty to do as Spokane eases from Christmas into the New Year week. Tomorrow night, downtown comes alive at the First Interstate Center for the Arts with Rain, a Tribute to the Beatles, bringing classic hits and a bit of British invasion nostalgia to Spokane Falls Boulevard at 7:30 p.m. Beatles fans can expect a full stage production that is family friendly and a fun way to keep the holiday spirit going. Families can also look ahead to A Charlie Brown Christmas Live on Stage, coming to the First Interstate Center on December 29. Doors open at 6 p.m. with the show at 7. It is a chance to introduce kids to the timeless Peanuts story, complete with music, the scraggly little tree, and that message about what the season is really all about. And as you map out your early January, keep an eye on downtowns First Friday scene. Local artists, live painting, and a rotating creative showdown help keep winter evenings vibrant and give you a chance to support Spokane talent while you browse, sip, and stroll.

On the law front, Spokane Police had a busy Tuesday, nabbing 17 folks on charges from theft and drugs to animal cruelty and warrants.

Plus, SPD cadets are out educating us on spotting and stopping property crimes, empowering everyone to stay vigilant. City offices and Spokane Valley are closed today through the holiday, so plan around that for any errands. But dont let the quiet fool you, theres fun brewing.

He left behind his wife Anita and daughter Rhonda Rae, and was honored with a posthumous Medal of Honor. If you have any leads on his descendants, contact Megan King at 360-597-4411 or wspmemorialfoundation@gmail.com, so we can properly remember this hero who protected our roads. Shifting to holiday fun, Santa made his grand arrival in Spokane yesterday, keeping that magical tradition alive and sparking joy for families across the city just in time for Christmas week. And if youre craving some festive action today, dive into the Spokane Murder Mystery Death in the Shadows at 204 E Desmet Ave, where you can channel your inner detective amid shadowy intrigue perfect for a chilly December evening. Weather-wise, brace for wild winds after yesterdays gusts hit 75 miles per hour at Spokane International Airport, rattling roofs and trees but no major disruptions reported yet. Bundle up as we head into more blustery holiday vibes. For adrenaline junkies, the Spokane County Fair and Expo Centers indoor flat track racing is revving up through the weekend at the Talbott Event Center, with motorcycles and karts tearing up the track from novice laps to pro speeds grab seats for that raw thrill that gets your heart racing faster than a holiday shopping rush. Riverfront Park keeps the winter magic rolling with free ice skating at the Numerica Skate Ribbon nearly every day, including tomorrows glow-up on December 26 with DJ beats, lights, and contests. Look ahead to New Years Eve fireworks at 9 p.m., plus special skates honoring firefighters on January 8 and police on January 22, all with free rentals on select days to make gliding easy and family-friendly. Politics heats up too with Mikey Mondays community event at 4:30 p.m. at Congressman Michael Baumgartners office on Spokane Falls, a chance to connect and chat local issues over casual vibes.

Downtown is buzzing today, and Riverfront Park is right at the heart of it. Free horse and carriage rides clip-clop back into town, a tradition that has charmed Spokane families for more than twenty years. The rides are running in the Riverfront area, so if you are looking for that classic holiday photo or just a slow roll through the lights, bundle up, grab some cocoa, and head toward the park where volunteers and staff are keeping things moving safely and smoothly for families all day long. If you would rather be on the ice than behind a horse, the Numerica Skate Ribbon is open and busy, with regular public skating sessions and a full slate of lessons and themed skate nights lined up through the week. Coaches tied to the Spokane Figure Skating community are continuing to help new skaters get comfortable on the ice, and the park has more music driven skate events coming up after Christmas, so today is a good chance to warm up those skills before the crowds hit later in the season. Over at the Spokane County Fair and Expo Center, the engines are wrapping up a big weekend. Indoor flat track racing has been roaring through the Talbott Event Center, bringing motorcycles and karts onto a tight indoor oval. It is one of the only chances this winter to see that kind of racing up close without braving freezing grandstands, and organizers say it draws everyone from first time racers to some of the fastest regional riders, filling hotels and restaurants in the Valley with race teams and fans. If laughter is more your speed tonight, Spokane Comedy Club downtown is hosting comedian Geoffrey Asmus for a special Sunday show at seven. The club has turned into a regular stop for national acts, and these pre holiday sets tend to sell quickly, so if you need a break from gift lists and grocery runs, this is a solid way to close out the weekend. Around the region, local governments are easing into the holiday week. Spokane Valley is preparing for its next City Council meeting on Tuesday, where councilmembers will continue work on housing and growth issues that shape how quickly new projects move in the Valley.

Folks, what a week its been in the Inland Northwest, with Mother Nature throwing curveballs that hit hard but brought our community together in true Spokane spirit. Those historic windstorms earlier this week tore through like nothing weve seen, toppling trees, knocking out power for 80,000 Avista customers, and tragically claiming lives, including a 55-year-old man in Fernan when a massive tree crashed into his bedroom while he slept. His family is leaning on neighbors and strangers for support right now, a reminder of how fragile moments like these make us cherish our tight-knit bonds. Power crews worked around the clock in brutal cold, restoring service to tens of thousands, though some spots in North Idaho and the Silver Valley lingered without lights into the weekend. Firefighters handled countless calls for downed lines and debris, urging everyone to watch for weakened branches that could still fall, keeping first responders busy as we head into more winter weather. On a brighter note, Spokane County is stepping up public safety big time. Commissioners locked in a new medical provider for the jail, Medico Correctional Healthcare, after years of tough lawsuits and losses, promising better care for inmates starting right away. Theyre also pushing the state for a 14th Superior Court judge to tackle thousands of backlogged cases, easing the strain on our overwhelmed courts. And get this, the city and county just inked a smooth two-year deal to shift 911 calls inside city limits to a new Spokane United center by 2028, ensuring no hiccups in emergencies while keeping regional teamwork strong for storms and fires. City Council made a lifesaving move too, approving 137,000 dollars for extra cold-weather shelter beds at Salvation Army, Catholic Charities, and Revive when temps drop below freezing, on top of their remaining 275,000 budget. Councilman Paul Dillon called it smart planning to save lives as winter bites harder. Today, shake off the chill with festive fun. Head to Riverfront Park for ice skating lessons and Coaches Corner at the Numerica Skate Ribbon, where Spokane Figure Skating Club pros share tips all afternoon. Kids will love the Enchanted Christmas Ball from noon to 1:30 at Audubon Masonic Lodge on Northwest Boulevard, a magical whirl of holiday cheer. Over in Spokane Valley, catch A Big and Christmas Around the World at 2pm at the Summer Theatre, exploring global traditions through 5:30. Numericas Five Days of Family Fun kicks off too, packed with winter break activities to create those cozy memories. And dont miss the beloved free horse and carriage rides downtown, a 20-year tradition lighting up the season. Stay safe out there, bundle up, and support each other.

Around the Lilac City, people are easing into the final stretch before the holidays, and downtown is already buzzing. Over at River Park Square, retailers are reporting steady growth this season, with the mall fully leased and foot traffic boosted by big holiday movie releases, so if you are finishing your shopping list, expect a lively but upbeat crowd and plenty of in person deals. Economically, Spokane is still in that so called K shaped recovery, where higher income households are spending freely while many lower income families continue to feel squeezed by prices outpacing wages. That is showing up in retail: overall taxable sales in Spokane County were up only in the low single digits earlier this year, trailing long term averages, which means local small businesses are working harder for every dollar and watching the 2026 tariff picture closely, especially in car sales and home improvement. Community care is front and center today. CHAS Health is preparing for its annual homeless memorials, including one at the Denny Murphy Clinic here in Spokane on Monday, honoring more than two hundred people who died while experiencing homelessness in their service area this year. The event is open to the public, with speakers, a visual tribute, and a warm meal, and it is designed as both remembrance and a call to action around housing, health care, and dignity for every neighbor. If you are looking for things to do tonight, north Spokane has a festive gathering at Twigs Bistro North on Farwell Road, where the Titus 2 womens ministry is hosting its Celebrate Jesus dinner from 6 to 8, blending food, music, and faith focused conversation as people wind down the workweek. For a lighter night out, comedy fans can head to the Spokane Comedy Club, where Cactus Tate takes the stage at 7 for an 18 and over show, promising fast paced, offbeat storytelling that should pair perfectly with a downtown dinner or drinks. And if you are planning ahead, the Spokane County Fair and Expo Center continues to be holiday central, from the Christmas Bureau assistance hours to big indoor arts and crafts and racing events that draw families from across the Inland Northwest.

If you are heading out this morning, expect cool, sunny conditions around the mid 50s in Spokane, a perfect backdrop for squeezing in some holiday fun before the workweek kicks back in later. The clear skies mean good driving weather if you are moving between downtown events or out into the Valley. Downtown, Riverfront Park is the heart of the action with the first ever Holiday Village at the Gesa Pavilion, running today from late morning into the early evening. You can wander through a cozy glass topped tent under the LED canopy, sip hot cocoa, make hands on crafts, snap festive photos, and browse a local artisan market for last minute gifts, all with free admission and live local performances adding to the atmosphere.[4] Nearby, the park is also hosting free horse and carriage rides, a downtown tradition for more than 20 years, giving families a classic way to see the lights and river views.[2] Just a few blocks away, River Park Square wraps up its annual Christmas Tree Elegance displays today, offering one last chance to take in the decorated trees and holiday installations before they come down.[7] It is an easy pairing with a stop at Holiday Village, and downtown garages and street parking make it simple to bounce between the two. If you are in the mood for music later in the day, the Spokane Symphony’s Pops 3 Home for the Holidays concert takes the stage at the historic Fox Theater this afternoon, blending favorite holiday classics with that big symphonic sound in a family friendly matinee.[5] For many Spokane families, it is become part concert, part tradition, and a nice warm up to other seasonal performances like The Nutcracker and Handel’s Messiah later in the month.[5] For a different kind of evening entertainment, Spokane Comedy Club has a packed Sunday lineup. National acts Michael Longfellow plus Aaron Branch and Herman Wrice hit the stage tonight, bringing a mix of stand up styles that ranges from sharp storytelling to high energy crowd work, and tonight’s show with Branch and Wrice is even billed as a free event, which is a rare budget friendly option in the busy holiday season.[6] Finally, in community news, this morning marks the 39th Shalena’s Breakfast, a long running local fundraiser that this year is supporting a young girl from Rathdrum. The benefit breakfast tradition brings together Spokane, Spokane Valley, and North Idaho neighbors to raise money through a shared meal, showing how the region continues to rally around families in need.[1] This has been Spokane Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.

Sun, 14 Dec 2025 09:56:20 -0000 trailer Inception Point AI Good morning, this is your Spokane Local Frequency for today. If you are heading out this morning, expect cool, sunny conditions around the mid 50s in Spokane, a perfect backdrop for squeezing in some holiday fun before the workweek kicks back in later. The clear skies mean good driving weather if you are moving between downtown events or out into the Valley. Downtown, Riverfront Park is the heart of the action with the first ever Holiday Village at the Gesa Pavilion, running today from late morning into the early evening. You can wander through a cozy glass topped tent under the LED canopy, sip hot cocoa, make hands on crafts, snap festive photos, and browse a local artisan market for last minute gifts, all with free admission and live local performances adding to the atmosphere.[4] Nearby, the park is also hosting free horse and carriage rides, a downtown tradition for more than 20 years, giving families a classic way to see the lights and river views.[2] Just a few blocks away, River Park Square wraps up its annual Christmas Tree Elegance displays today, offering one last chance to take in the decorated trees and holiday installations before they come down.[7] It is an easy pairing with a stop at Holiday Village, and downtown garages and street parking make it simple to bounce between the two.

Around the Lilac City, the big focus this weekend is all things winter and holidays, and downtown is buzzing. At Riverfront Park, the first ever Holiday Village is in full swing at the Gesa Pavilion, running from late morning into the evening with hot cocoa, hands on crafts, live local performances, and a packed artisan market under that twinkling LED canopy. It is free to walk through, so you can browse jewelry, candles, art, and local treats while the kids explore the craft tables and photo spots. Just steps away, the Numerica Skate Ribbon is open and busy today. In addition to regular public skating, there are Learn to Skate sessions where beginners can work through the official curriculum and get more confident on the ice, so it is a good day to bundle up, lace up, and make a few cold weather memories. If you are looking for something more low key but still festive, downtown also brings back free horse and carriage rides, a tradition of more than 20 years. Rides loop through the core of downtown, giving you that classic holiday movie vibe while you check out shop windows and maybe finish up some local gift shopping. Over in Hillyard, it is the Annual Christmas Walk along Market Street. Expect small businesses opening their doors with specials, lights, and family activities, turning that historic district into a neighborhood street party. It is a nice option if you want a community feel without heading all the way downtown. For families this afternoon, Shadle Park Library is hosting a Winter Solstice Celebration with stories and parol making, a Filipino style lantern craft. It runs mid afternoon and is a hands on, kid friendly way to learn about different winter traditions and head home with a homemade lantern. If you are out in Spokane Valley, CenterPlace is hosting a Winter Market in the Great Room, featuring regional vendors, crafts, and seasonal goods from late morning through early evening. It is indoors, so you can stay warm while you browse. Tonight, music lovers can cap the day with the Spokane Jazz Orchestra presenting A Motown Christmas at Gonzaga’s Myrtle Woldson Performing Arts Center, blending big band jazz with classic Motown holiday favorites. One quick city note before we go: Spokane officials are warning about a new email scam where messages pretend to come from the city’s Planning Director or Development Services Center, so double check senders and when in doubt, contact the city directly.

We’ll start with what is shaping city policy for the year ahead. Spokane City Council has adopted its 2026 state legislative agenda, a roadmap of the priorities your local leaders will be taking to Olympia, including housing, public safety, and infrastructure. That means the conversations happening now at the Capitol will directly shape funding for roads, homelessness programs, and public services here at home over the next few years. If you are in the Valley and thinking about the future of the regional economy, business and civic leaders will be gathering this afternoon for the Legislative Kickoff at the Davenport Grand Hotel, in Grand Ballroom C, from 4 to 7 p.m. That event gives employers, local governments, and lawmakers a chance to talk face to face about everything from workforce needs to transportation and how to keep jobs growing in the Spokane area. Speaking of work, if you are looking to sharpen your skills, WorkSource Spokane is running its Digital Literacy Series today. It is aimed at helping job seekers and career changers get more comfortable with computers and online tools, the kind of skills that increasingly decide who gets hired and who gets left behind in the job market. On the community and activism front, Spokane Indivisible and Spokane County Democrats continue their regular calendar of visibility brigades, book clubs, and weekend rallies. These gatherings range from overpass banner events to “Say It Saturday” community meetups that mix hot soup with conversations about democracy and local issues, offering plenty of ways to plug into civic life and meet like minded neighbors. If you are looking for something more playful, there is the Spokane Conspiracy Game: The Outdoor Escape, starting from Boone Avenue today. It turns parts of the city into an open air escape room, sending teams solving clues through Spokane’s streets and landmarks. It is a fun way to experience downtown in a new light while getting some steps in. And a quick note for retired teachers and school staff: the Spokane Area Retired Educators Association is gathering late morning into the afternoon at CenterPlace Regional Event Center in Spokane Valley, a reminder of how central long time educators remain to the social fabric of this community.

If you are heading out the door, downtown is waking up to a full slate of holiday happenings, so expect a little extra bustle around Riverfront Park and the core shopping streets. The city’s first-ever Holiday Village at Riverfront is in full swing this week, turning the park into a cozy little winter town with lights, vendors, and plenty of treats to warm you up between errands or after work. Skaters are already eyeing the Numerica Skate Ribbon, which is gearing up for themed DJ Nights on the Ice later this month, so if you want a quieter spin, daytime sessions today are your best bet. Families looking for a kid-focused tradition can swing by Santa Express, the pop-up holiday shop where kids pick out gifts on their own budget with help from volunteer elves. It is a long-running Spokane favorite, and a gentle way to teach younger shoppers how to plan, choose, and wrap something special, all while supporting local causes. Pet owners, your turn comes this afternoon. Paws and Claus holiday pet photos are back downtown from 4 to 7 p.m., giving your dog, cat, or very patient bearded dragon a chance to meet Santa and get a festive portrait. STCU members snag a discount on photo packages, so bring that card if you want a deal along with your pet’s best holiday sweater. If your idea of holiday spirit leans more toward the arts, the Fox Theater’s December calendar is stacked. The Spokane Symphony is deep into Nutcracker season with State Street Ballet and more than 90 local dancers bringing the classic to life, while Pops concerts like Home for the Holidays add a soundtrack of carols and seasonal favorites. Later in the month the symphony turns to Beethoven’s Ninth to ring in the New Year, so this is a good time to grab tickets before the big nights sell out. Around the region, community calendars are filling up with school concerts, local theater productions, and gallery shows, including day exhibitions like Whitworth’s Black Delta photography installation for anyone wanting a quieter cultural break from the shopping rush.

Cloudy skies and chilly temps are setting the tone around town, with Spokane hovering in the low 30s, so plan on bundling up if you are heading out, especially later this afternoon and evening when it stays right around freezing.[2] If you are looking for something festive to kick off your day, Rogers High School is wrapping up its annual Holiday Craft Fair on North Wellesley. Doors are open from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., with more than 80 local vendors, free Santa photos, a Christmas Tree Alley raffle, concessions by the booster club, and free admission, making it an easy stop for last minute gift hunting and a way to support neighborhood small businesses.[2] Downtown, Riverfront Park is leaning into the holidays. Free horse and carriage rides are back, a tradition in Spokane for more than 20 years, giving families and visitors a classic way to experience the lights and the riverfront without spending a dime on the ride itself.[4][7] With the ice ribbon in full winter mode and other seasonal attractions, it is a good excuse to grab a hot drink and stroll the park.[4] For a quieter, cozy afternoon, Gonzaga University is hosting its Candlelight Christmas Concert at the Myrtle Woldson Performing Arts Center, a matinee performance from 2 to 3:30 p.m. featuring the universitys music program in a formal holiday setting.[5] It is a chance to step inside, warm up, and hear live music as finals season approaches for students but the community gets the benefit of the performance. If your vibe tonight is louder and heavier, Memphis May Fire is in town with Rain City Drive at the Knitting Factory, with the show scheduled to start at 7 p.m.[6][8] That brings national touring rock to the downtown venue, adding some edge to the holiday atmosphere and drawing fans from across the region. In hockey, the Spokane Chiefs are riding some momentum after a 4–2 home win last night over the Tri City Americans, outshooting them and turning their annual Teddy Bear Toss game into a big offensive night.[3] Those stuffed animals will now head to local charities, a reminder that winter sports here often double as community drives. On the city front, crews are still working to repair an earlier water main break that reduced East Francis Avenue to one lane in each direction between Addison and Standard, so drivers in northeast Spokane should expect slower traffic and plan extra time on that stretch.[1] This has been Spokane Local Frequency.

On the lighter side, the holiday season is in full swing around Spokane. If you've got furry friends at home, here's something fun for you. Paws and Claus is happening today from 4 to 7 p.m., giving your pets a chance to meet Santa and get their holiday photos taken. There's also another session coming up on December 8th. STCU members get a special discount, so if you bank with them, bring your card and save ten dollars on photo packages. Downtown is buzzing with creative holiday activities too. Art Salvage is hosting a DIY gift wrapping station through December 20th where you can bring your own gifts and get inspired with upcycled materials. They provide ribbons, papers, and ideas for custom tags and bows. It's a fun way to make your presents unique while keeping things eco-friendly. Speaking of holiday happenings, Browne Family Vineyards has several events coming up this week. Tonight they're hosting Mingo, their musical bingo night at 6 p.m. It's free to play, though food and drinks are available for purchase. If wine and festive vibes sound good to you, they've also got holiday jazz nights and trivia nights scheduled throughout December. For those looking to get some holiday shopping done, the Spokane winter market that wrapped up yesterday was a huge success. Families enjoyed warm drinks, handcrafted goods from local makers, photos with Santa, and live music. If you missed it, don't worry because more December events are planned. The Scale House Market at the Quarry in Spokane Valley also continues this season with outdoor vendors, live music, and food throughout the week. It's a great spot to support local businesses and get holiday gifts with character. Art lovers should know that several local exhibitions are on display this month, including works highlighting Ukrainian art and a showcase of holiday ornaments from local artists.

We're starting this Sunday with some beautiful weather in the forecast. Expect sunny skies along with a few clouds today, with highs reaching near 35 degrees. Winds will be light and variable throughout the day, so it's a great time to get outside and enjoy the outdoors before things cool down tonight. We're looking at partly cloudy skies this evening with more clouds moving in later at night, and lows dropping to around 25 degrees. Speaking of getting outside, there's plenty happening around Spokane today and in the coming weeks. Over at Kendall Yards, the Winter Wonderland Holiday Festival is in full swing right now, running from noon to four o'clock this afternoon. It's a perfect family-friendly way to kick off the holiday season with festive activities and holiday cheer. Down at Riverfront Park, the community tree lighting took place yesterday, but the fun continues with ice skating and hot cocoa available at the Numerica Skate Ribbon. If you're looking to learn some new skills on the ice, the Learn to Skate USA program starts next week with beginner-friendly classes on Saturdays and Sundays. In sports news, the Spokane Chiefs fell short yesterday, dropping their third straight game to the Kelowna Rockets with a final score of four to one. The team will be looking to bounce back in their upcoming matchups. Looking ahead to next weekend, downtown Spokane is hosting a Winter Wonderland black-tie event on December 6th that promises to be quite the celebration. The event will feature dancing, music, and a curated silent auction with all proceeds going to local small businesses. There will also be food from diverse Spokane restaurants and an elegant photo booth. If you're interested in attending, Tuxedo Gallery is making it accessible by offering ninety-nine dollar tuxedo rentals that include your entry fee. Later this week, downtown Spokane will debut its first-ever Holiday Village presented by Gesa Credit Union, running from December 11th through the 14th. It's shaping up to be a magical way to experience the season right in the heart of our community. For live entertainment today, if you're looking for some laughs, the Dope Show is playing at Spokane Comedy Club at four o'clock this afternoon. This has been Spokane Local Frequency.

We're diving right into a busy Saturday with plenty of holiday festivities kicking off across the Inland Northwest. If you're looking to get into the spirit of the season, downtown Spokane is the place to be. The Numerica Tree Lighting Celebration is happening this evening from 4 to 7 PM at the plaza adjacent to the Numerica Skate Ribbon. Festivities kick off at 4 PM with food trucks and live entertainment, and the big moment comes at 6 PM when we light up the community tree. So bundle up, grab your ice skates, and bring some hot cocoa because this is a tradition that brings so many Spokane families together on Thanksgiving weekend. Speaking of holiday cheer, winter markets are popping up all over town today. The Scale House Market, Spokane's year-round indoor facility, is hosting a winter market to support small businesses, and the Kendall Yards area is bringing the magic with its first Night Market Winter Festival. If you want to support local shops, today is Small Business Saturday, so there's no better time to explore what downtown has to offer. If you're in the mood for some entertainment beyond shopping, the Spokane Chiefs are taking on the Kelowna Rockets tonight at 6:05 PM at Numerica Veterans Arena. And for the whole family, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer is performing at the Spokane Civic Theatre this evening. For those who like a little mystery and adventure, Spokane's Secret Society Mystery Hunt is happening today as well. On the news front, we're keeping an eye on a couple of serious matters. An Airway Heights couple has been charged with imprisoning a teenager for three days in their bedroom without food. The teen managed to escape to a neighbor's apartment, and both suspects are being held on 100-thousand-dollar bonds. Additionally, a single-vehicle rollover crash occurred on North Rambo Road near West Euclid Road, resulting in one death and another person being hospitalized. The Washington State Patrol is increasing patrols throughout the holiday weekend, reminding drivers to slow down and be extra cautious as holiday travel picks up and weather conditions get colder. They emphasize that technique over speed is what keeps everyone safe on our roads. So whether you're hitting the holiday events downtown, supporting local businesses, or just enjoying a Saturday with family, make it a safe and wonderful day here in Spokane.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone in the Spokane area. Whether you're heading to family gatherings or enjoying a quieter day at home, we've got you covered with what's happening in our community today. First, let's talk weather. We're looking at cloudy skies this morning with temperatures hovering around 39 degrees. There's a 60 percent chance of rain moving in, so you might want to keep an umbrella handy if you're heading out. Expect a high of 40 degrees with lows dropping to around 34 degrees tonight, so bundle up for those evening plans. On the civic front, the City of Spokane has announced a significant initiative to address homelessness and substance abuse. The city is funding 50 new shelter beds and launching mobile medication-assisted treatment services through an emergency declaration. This brings much-needed resources online for vulnerable residents during the cold winter months ahead. In a positive development for local law enforcement, Spokane police have cleared Giving Back Spokane founder Rick Clark of embezzlement allegations. The organization, which has been instrumental in community outreach, can now move forward without that cloud of investigation. Unfortunately, there's sadness to report as well. A body discovered in the Spokane River near the TJ Meenach Bridge has been identified. Our thoughts are with the family and friends affected by this tragedy. On the political side, a Spokane Valley councilmember has sparked considerable community response after sharing what was described as an Islamaphobic post on a private Facebook account. The post has triggered significant anger and discussion about leadership conduct in our valley communities. And in matters of law, a federal judge has dismissed a challenge to Washington state's gun law, upholding the state's regulations. Most of our schools and colleges are closed today for the Thanksgiving holiday, including Spokane Falls Community College and schools throughout the Greenacres area, so families can focus on time together and giving thanks. That's your snapshot of Spokane today. Whether you're enjoying a day off with loved ones or working behind the scenes to keep our community running, we appreciate you tuning in.

We’re waking up today to a snowy scene here in Spokane, with temperatures hovering around the mid-thirties and a chance of more flurries as we head into the Thanksgiving holiday. If you’re hitting the roads for last-minute shopping or travel, bundle up and give yourself a little extra time out there, as heavy snow and slick streets could slow things down. In city news, Spokane’s mayor is expressing thanks following the City Council’s approval of a balanced and responsible budget modification just in time for the new year, aiming to keep our public services running smoothly and our finances on track. Over in Spokane Valley, remember that City Hall and the CenterPlace Regional Event Center will be closed from noon today through Friday for the Thanksgiving holiday, so plan accordingly if you need to take care of any city business. Now, for everyone looking for ways to kick off your holiday celebrations, you’ve got plenty of options tonight. At the Spokane Comedy Club, Ryan McComb is headlining his Thanksgiving Eve Comedy Feast at 7 PM—a great way to start the long weekend with some laughs and maybe forget about all the holiday prep for a couple hours. Music fans have a couple of choices too. The Big Dipper is hosting a high-energy show with Bonginator, sure to bring out the local rock crowd, and over at Zola, it’s their legendary Night Before Thanksgiving Jam, promising feel-good tunes and lively spirits into the night. If sports are more your speed, the Spokane Chiefs hit the ice at Numerica Veterans Arena tonight at 7:05 to take on the Kelowna Rockets. With the holiday break coming up, it’s the perfect chance to rally with friends or family and enjoy one of Spokane’s favorite traditions—WHL hockey under the arena lights. Looking ahead to the Thanksgiving weekend, the city comes alive with events to help you make the most of family time. On Friday, check out the Spokane Handweavers Guild Show and Sale if you’re looking for unique holiday gifts. The Festival of Fair Trade’s Global Holiday Market also kicks off at Kizuri and Ganesh Himal Trading, inviting you to peruse ethically made crafts that support global communities. Saturday offers a Youth Makers Market at Wishing Tree Books and a cozy Holiday Wreath Workshop at Commellini Estate—great opportunities to connect with local creativity and perhaps start a new tradition. Of course, as the holiday season gets underway, remember that community remains at the heart of Spokane. Whether you’re laughing at a comedy show, cheering for the Chiefs, or simply swapping stories at the dinner table, every gathering is a chance to shape the season’s spirit. That’s a wrap for your local roundup. However you choose to celebrate, stay warm, stay safe, and enjoy this snowy Spokane Thanksgiving. This has been Spokane Local Frequency.

We’re waking up to some chilly, clear skies in Spokane—a perfect scene for getting out and connecting with the city. If you’re venturing downtown today, the hunt is on! Head over to 808 West Spokane Avenue for a thrilling scavenger hunt focused on our unique art and architecture. Whether you’re new to Spokane or a lifelong local, expect surprises as you puzzle through clues and uncover hidden details along the sidewalks and buildings. It’s a playful way to rediscover the heart of Spokane and maybe meet fellow sleuths. For those who crave a bit more drama, tonight brings intrigue courtesy of "Death in the Shadows," Spokane’s own murder mystery experience. This immersive event at 204 East Desmet Avenue transforms you into a detective for the evening. Gather your friends and sharpen your reasoning—tonight, you’ll be racing to solve the clues before the culprit escapes, all within a classic Spokane setting. On the music front, culture lovers won’t want to miss the EWU String Orchestra and Symphonic Choir Concert tonight from 7:30 to 9 at Eastern Washington University’s Music Building Recital Hall. Featuring works by Tana Bland, Vivian Fung, and Brahms, the evening will showcase world premieres and honor women in music. It’s a great night to support local talent and be inspired by stirring performances. Of course, sports fans have plenty to cheer about. The Spokane Open wrestling championships just wrapped up with outstanding showings from visiting teams. Looking ahead, our own Spokane Chiefs take the ice later this week, with home games against the Kelowna Rockets on Wednesday and Saturday, so grab your tickets and support local hockey. If basketball is more your speed, mark your calendar for the upcoming 509 Classic showdown between EWU and WSU at the Spokane Arena next month. The energy in the arena never disappoints. For those seeking community and connection, Spokane Falls Community College’s food pantry is distributing baskets to preregistered students until 4 p.m. today—a reminder of the networks that support us year-round. Football fans can pop over to Post Falls for The DAM Watch Party, a lively spot to catch Monday Night Football with friends, food, and buckets of beer from 4 to 9 p.m. On the horizon, Broadway in Spokane heralds Moulin Rouge wrapping up its run, with more musicals—like Kinky Boots and Disney’s The Lion King—coming soon to the stage. Meanwhile, city officials continue discussing housing regulations, especially around rent pricing algorithms and so-called junk fees. No major changes have hit Spokane yet, but the dialogue continues, and it’s always wise to stay informed—policy decisions today could shape housing tomorrow. This has been Spokane Local Frequency.

First, the Washington State Department of Transportation hosts an important community meeting this afternoon at Frances Scott Elementary at 4:30.

For those whose weekends revolve around football, Whitworth hosts the Pirates’ last regular season game today—a major event for longtime fans.

Kicking off your weekend with the big stories making waves in Spokane, we start just next door in Post Falls where residents are still reeling from the bizarre sight of a house leveled by an excavator. Early Friday morning, officers arrested a 29-year-old man accused of deliberately demolishing a nearly finished home in the neighborhood. Shock and disbelief rippled through the block as neighbors surveyed the damage, but cleanup crews are moving fast, and the property developer says they'll rebuild, though it could take up to a year before a new home stands on that lot. Back in Spokane, the city’s budget challenges remain center stage. Mayor Lisa Brown has unveiled a proposal to address a 13 million dollar deficit. While nearly 20 city jobs are set for cuts, it could have been much higher, and the good news is there are no proposals to boost utility taxes or trim back essential city services like snow plowing. That’s a relief as winter approaches. The mayor’s emergency declaration for increased shelter and food support is also in effect, meaning the city will fund 50 new shelter beds, ramp up eviction prevention, and add mobile addiction treatment services to support those hit hardest by ongoing federal shutdown worries. Meanwhile, schools and parks have something to celebrate. Thanks to strong voter turnout, the Together Spokane initiative has passed, securing millions for new projects across the city. Spokane schools are already packing up to begin building a modern, ADA-accessible Adams Elementary. Expect to see new parks, a trade school, an indoor tennis center, and enhanced recreation facilities springing up over the next several years, all promised to boost life for students, families, and neighborhoods citywide. Now, for those looking for ways to spend the day, families gather for a magical time at the Spokane Arena this morning as Disney On Ice: Let’s Dance takes to the rink at 11 AM. It’s a guaranteed hit with kids and grown-ups alike. Music fans, tonight brings a chance to flash back in style with Pops 2: Back to the '80s at 7:30 PM, also downtown. The Spokane Symphony leads an evening of classic ‘80s hits you can sing along to, from Madonna to Huey Lewis, for that totally tubular nostalgia. Live theater returns this evening as Spokane Falls Community College's Drama Club stages their fall production, Witch, starting at 7:30 in Spartan Theater. And over at New Community, alt-folk duo Over the Rhine will be taking the stage as part of their PNW 2025 tour. For those who love a little mystery with dinner, The Dinner Detective True Crime event plays out this evening at the Spokane Club. If supporting local education is your calling, the WV Ed Foundation Fundraiser kicks off tonight at 6 in the Great Room, and for those willing to venture a bit further, Ritzville holds a critical town hall at 2 to address the future of East Adams Rural Healthcare amid This content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI.

Let’s start with a heads-up from the Spokane County Assessor’s Office. Residents are being warned about spoofing scam calls happening after hours. These calls may look official, but they are not coming from the county, so if you see “Spokane County” pop up unexpectedly don’t share any personal or financial info and consider reporting the suspicious call to Crime Check. Authorities are keeping a close eye on this situation, and officials urge everyone to stay vigilant. Turning to community happenings, today marks the last chance to catch Eastern Washington University’s “Conservation of Mass” art exhibition, which wraps up its run at the Gallery of Art. If you’re looking to brighten someone’s holiday season, the YWCA’s 10th Annual Family Wish List Program is underway, hoping to serve 90 Spokane families facing tough times—community members can deliver donated gifts now through early December, or contribute online to lift local spirits this winter. The holiday build-up is truly kicking into gear. The Salvation Army Spokane has their signature Corporate Kettle Kick-Off event in full swing, rallying local businesses and residents for another fundraising season aimed at supporting those in need. The event stretches from Tuesday through Thursday, energizing volunteers and boosting the familiar sounds of bells around the city. For family fun, Jump For Joy has open jump times today from 9:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. A great spot to get some energy out, especially as the days grow shorter. Meanwhile, the Medicare Annual Election is happening at Inland Empire Insurance Group Clinic today from 9:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., helping locals sort out health coverage questions during open enrollment. Let’s talk music and entertainment—tonight, New York Times bestselling humorist David Sedaris takes the stage, charming audiences with his signature wit. This weekend, Disney On Ice transforms the Spokane Arena into a magical playground featuring beloved characters—shows run November 14 through 16, so grab tickets if you’re looking for a fun night out with the kids. Looking further ahead, Handel’s Messiah returns to St. John’s Cathedral later this month—the iconic “Hallelujah” chorus is always a holiday highlight and tickets sell quickly.

Thu, 13 Nov 2025 09:58:04 -0000 full Inception Point AI Good morning, this is your Spokane Local Frequency for Thursday, November 13, 2025. Let’s start with a heads-up from the Spokane County Assessor’s Office. Residents are being warned about spoofing scam calls happening after hours. These calls may look official, but they are not coming from the county, so if you see “Spokane County” pop up unexpectedly don’t share any personal or financial info and consider reporting the suspicious call to Crime Check. Authorities are keeping a close eye on this situation, and officials urge everyone to stay vigilant. Turning to community happenings, today marks the last chance to catch Eastern Washington University’s “Conservation of Mass” art exhibition, which wraps up its run at the Gallery of Art. If you’re looking to brighten someone’s holiday season, the YWCA’s 10th Annual Family Wish List Program is underway, hoping to serve 90 Spokane families facing tough times—community members can deliver donated gifts now through early December, or contribute online to lift local spirits this winter. The holiday build-up is truly kicking into gear. The Salvation Army Spokane has their signature Corporate Kettle Kick-Off event in full swing, rallying local businesses and residents for another fundraising season aimed at supporting those in need. The event stretches from Tuesday through Thursday, energizing volunteers and boosting the familiar sounds of bells around the city. For family fun, Jump For Joy has open jump times today from 9:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. A great spot to get some energy out, especially as the days grow shorter. Meanwhile, the Medicare Annual Election is happening at Inland Empire Insurance Group Clinic today from 9:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., helping locals sort out health coverage questions during open enrollment. Let’s talk music and entertainment—tonight, New York Times bestselling humorist David Sedaris takes the stage, charming audiences with his signature wit. This weekend, Disney On Ice transforms the Spokane Arena into a magical playground featuring beloved characters—shows run November 14 through 16, so grab tickets if you’re looking for a fun night out with the kids. Looking further ahead, Handel’s Messiah returns to St. John’s Cathedral later this month—the iconic “Hallelujah” chorus is always a holiday highlight and tickets sell quickly. Bing Crosby Holiday Fest is also gearing up with classic movie screenings and festive performances right in the historical heart of town. Stay tuned for Pops 3: Home for the Holidays with the Spokane Symphony as well, bringing beloved seasonal tunes to the stage. And for those with a passion for food and sustainability, the SCD Farm & Food Symposium continues today at CenterPlace in Spokane Valley, showcasing innovation in agriculture and local eats until 4:30 p.m. It’s a perfect opportunity to connect with community growers and organizations shaping Spokane’s food future.

Hope you’re waking up to a hot cup of coffee and plenty of positive energy, because we’ve got a lot to cover as we roll through your mid-November Thursday here in the Inland Northwest. It was a soggy start to the week and you can expect more rain chances today, so don’t forget your umbrella if you’re out running errands or heading downtown. For those who were chasing the Northern Lights last night despite that pesky cloud cover, the skies actually opened up for a while and delivered a surprisingly vibrant celestial show—another reminder that Spokane’s nature can always pull off the unexpected. In city updates, there’s big community spirit rolling through Spokane this November. Galaxy Paint Solutions has launched a heartfelt campaign: for every thousand dollars they earn on a job this month, they’re donating a hundred dollars of food to local banks. The owner says it’s about neighbors helping neighbors when times are tight, and they hope other local businesses follow their lead. Meanwhile, Spokane Neighborhood Action Partners—better known as SNAP—has restarted their popular Cuisine for Clients program, supporting both local restaurants and families who might be struggling to put dinner on the table. Safety is top of mind for Spokane authorities this week. The police department closed a case quickly, arresting a suspect in a series of armed robberies in Hillyard. And on the heels of that news, residents are being urged to stay alert as a new phone scam has been making the rounds—calls that appear to come from the county assessor’s office but are actually fraudulent. If you get a suspicious call after hours, hang up and call back directly just to be sure. On the political front, Eastern Washington’s own Representative Michael Bumgartner was seen hustling to D.C. for a key House vote on the Senate bill, while nationally there’s still talk about SNAP benefit extensions and big swings in food prices that could affect local residents. Speaking of food, with Thanksgiving around the corner, many are getting ready for family and football, but also looking out for those in need as donation drives ramp up. Now, if you’re looking for something to do tonight or this weekend, Spokane has no shortage of options. Comedy fans are in for a treat this evening as David Sedaris brings his wit and storytelling to the Fox Theater at 7:30—grab those last tickets if you haven’t yet. Art lovers can catch the final day of Conservation of Mass at Eastern Washington University’s Gallery of Art. Over at the Bing Crosby Theater and beyond, the holiday spirit is firing up with upcoming events like the annual Bing Crosby Holiday Fest and, for families, open jump sessions at Jump For Joy will keep the kids busy and active indoors. And mark your calendars because the Warren Miller Sno-ciety Film Tour is rolling into town tonight at 7:30 at the Bing for those already dreaming of snow.

The week kicks off with a spirit of community and reflection here in Spokane, as the City Council invites everyone downtown for Community Days this evening. From five to six o’clock at the Chase Gallery in City Hall’s lower level, they’re honoring veterans in advance of tomorrow’s Veterans Day commemorations. Council Member Kitty Klitzke encourages all of us not just to show gratitude on Veterans Day, but to support those who have served every day of the year. If you can join, you’ll be helping to shine a light on local heroes. Speaking of heroes, tomorrow morning the annual Veterans Day Ceremony returns to Numerica Veterans Arena. Doors open at nine, with the ceremony running from ten to eleven and hosted by the Washington State Fallen Heroes Project. Expect heartfelt tributes, music, coffee, and cookies, plus a gift for all veterans and free parking in Lot B—a warm way to thank Spokane’s service members. If you’re looking for art and inspiration, the Spokane scene has you covered. The Eastern Washington University Gallery of Art continues its “Conservation of Mass” exhibit through Wednesday, featuring Spokane-based ceramicist Tybre Newcomer. Whether you’re a longtime art lover or just looking to broaden your perspective, it’s worth a visit. For music with a twist, Jazz Night and jam session starts at seven at Imagine Jazz. Local pros Rachel Bade-McMurphy and Brendan McMurphy headline, then the session opens up to the audience—a chance to hear Spokane’s jazz scene in full swing. For families with kids eager to burn off some energy, Open Jump times are available at Jump For Joy today from nine thirty to seven, with a brief early afternoon break. It is the perfect spot for kids under ten to get the wiggles out on a chilly November day. Film buffs are in for a treat tonight at seven thirty as the Myrtle Woldson Center at Gonzaga screens the 1926 silent horror classic “A Page of Madness.” Internationally acclaimed benshi artist Ichiro Kataoka will perform live narration and commentary, paired with an original score of cello and electronics—a rare fusion of film and live performance. If live music is your thing, indie band Nest is taking the stage at the Big Dipper tonight, bringing their creative sound to one of Spokane’s favorite intimate music venues. It’s a great way to plug into what’s fresh on the local music scene, whether you’re a die-hard fan or just curious about new acts. Keep in mind, Spokane’s folk community is still humming from the annual Fall Folk Festival, and if you missed the festivities this past weekend, check out the Spokane Folklore Society’s updates for more ways to stay connected with folk and roots music throughout the city.

Kicking things off for sports fans, tonight will be a big moment as Spokane Velocity FC face off in the USL1 semifinals at One Spokane Stadium. The game kicks off at 6 p.m. local time, and whether you’re grabbing a seat in the stadium or streaming at home, there’s bound to be a lot of energy as Velocity aim for a finals berth. If you need a place to cheer with fellow fans, a number of local venues will have the match on—just double check times as doors open early for this playoff event. If music is calling your name this Sunday, the King of Instruments concert lifts off at 3 p.m. at St. Mark’s Lutheran Church. Expect both meditative and electrifying organ music performed by the Spokane Chapter of the American Guild of Organists—perfect for those looking for inspiration or even just a unique musical experience to start their week. And if you’re more into high-decibel excitement, metal titans Soulfly are invading the Knitting Factory tonight. Doors open at 7, and this is an all-ages show. Prepare for pounding rhythms and a crowd ready to let loose. For a globetrotter’s taste in culture, tonight at Gonzaga the Night of Nations returns. From 6 to 9 at Hemmingson Ballroom, the International Student Union shares a celebration of world cultures with food, performances, and a vibrant community spirit. Tickets can be purchased online or at the door, and expect a journey of sights and sounds from across the globe—without leaving Spokane. Those wanting a more contemplative Sunday morning can join services streaming live from the Hamblen Park Presbyterian Church or Summit Spokane Church. Both have their doors and social feeds open, so you can tune in with your coffee from home. For families who want to get out while keeping things mellow, CenterPlace in Spokane Valley is hosting Widows Might this afternoon at 12:45. It’s a supportive community event open to all. Looking ahead in the arts, there’s buzz for the return of Spokane’s favorite holiday tradition—preparations are already underway for The Nutcracker Ballet and the Bing Crosby Holiday Fest. And while you make your plans for the coming weeks, remember that fall concert tours by comedy acts, jazz ensembles, and big names like Paula Poundstone and David Sedaris will be rolling through Spokane’s downtown venues soon.

A crisp November morning greets us as Spokane settles into fall, and there’s plenty happening around town to keep you connected. Let’s start with a bit of local news from City Hall. The Spokane Police Department has confirmed it’s postponing its purchase of two long-range acoustic devices after community concerns about their impact and safety. Residents spoke out on October 27, prompting the city council to defer a decision until next week, so if this issue matters to you, now’s the time to stay tuned and get involved. Spokane Police Chief Kevin Hall also issued a statement Friday about recent internal investigations. Two officers resigned after being found in violation of department policy, specifically regarding inappropriate conduct while on duty. Chief Hall reassured the public that swift action was taken and that most officers uphold Spokane’s trust every day. In other local headlines, a Spokane man was found not guilty of assaulting a Border Patrol agent, flights out of Spokane International continue to experience delays due to the federal government shutdown, and Spokane city council is weighing a new parking tax for downtown. Local economists are warning that new business taxes could drive companies across the border to Idaho, so business owners here are watching developments closely. Meanwhile, statewide, COVID and flu vaccinations are down again this year—only about 17 percent of Washingtonians have gotten a flu shot, and even fewer have gotten the latest COVID shot. The Health Department has released a new dashboard so locals can keep track of immunization rates right down to Spokane County. Looking for things to do today? Spokane’s brisk weather is perfect for getting out and enjoying all the community has to offer. This evening, you can catch comedian Michael Glatzmaier at the Spokane Comedy Club downtown. If you’re more in the mood for a puzzle adventure, a city-wide scavenger hunt is happening at 6 North Post Street, called Brick by Brick: The Spokane City Puzzle. Families and friends can team up to explore Spokane’s hidden gems and solve local mysteries together. At the Bing Crosby Theater, holiday spirit arrives early with evening performances of A Christmas Carol. Whether you’re feeling nostalgic or just want a fun night out, tickets are still available for all weekend showtimes. On the edge of town, spark your winter excitement at Mount Spokane’s Winter Pre-Funk Party, with live music, dancing, and prizes running all day Sunday. Over at the Spokane County Fair and Expo Center, the biggest snowmobile and power sports expo in the West opens its doors tomorrow morning. Bring old gear to swap or shop for new equipment to get you ready for the slopes. If you’re feeling crafty, swing by the Pellu Fall Craft Fair until 3 p.m. today for handmade and vintage goods at the Pellu Community Center.

Spokane is waking up under mostly cloudy skies this morning, with temperatures hovering near 49 degrees and a chance of rain later on, so grab your umbrella before heading out. After a busy week in our region, there’s plenty happening today to keep you informed and entertained. We begin with the city’s news pulse. Two Spokane police officers have resigned following internal investigations into on-duty sexual misconduct involving domestic violence victims, shaking up local law enforcement conversations. Meanwhile, Spokane residents are still responding to tragic headlines from beyond city limits after a fatal pedestrian crash in Okanogan County. The legal battles continue in Idaho’s high-profile student murder case, as the convicted individual now fights over financial restitution to the victims’ families. In Olympia, Governor Ferguson is fielding questions about SNAP benefits and what changes could mean for thousands of Spokane families trying to make ends meet. Turning to local business, the annual State of the Region conference convened yesterday at the Spokane Convention Center. Industry leaders and economists discussed the effects of the historic government shutdown and its ripple impacts on Spokane’s economy. With Fairchild Air Force Base and other federal employees in our community, the uncertainty looms large. Local economist Grant Forsyth reminded everyone that reduced federal spending hits local sales and jobs hard, and the longer the shutdown lasts, the rockier the path to economic recovery. But it’s not all heavy news—there’s plenty to do today. If you’ve got an appetite for fresh produce and community, the Spokane Community College Farmers Market is open from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the SCC Lair Student Center. Grab your favorite fall veggies, explore student crafts, and join the campus buzz. Later tonight, Spokane Valley Fire Department launches its first-ever Mustache Mania, with 16 firefighters competing for the coveted title of Stache Supreme. Each day this month, you can vote for your favorite mustache on their Facebook page. The winner will be revealed at month’s end, so expect some spirited banter and plenty of mustache memes in your feed. For those seeking live entertainment, the First Interstate Center for the Arts hosts the dynamic dance-electronica show iLuminate tonight, a must-see for fans of glowing costumes and electric choreography. Over at the Knitting Factory, Fit For A King brings their Lonely God Tour—expect a night of heavy riffs, heartfelt lyrics, and a crowd full of energy. As Spokane moves through November, your community remains vibrant, resilient, and full of opportunity.

Election energy is pulsing through Spokane this morning. Voters cast their ballots yesterday, but the final results for city council and school district propositions are still being counted. Jonathan Bingle has claimed an early victory for Spokane City Council District 1, Position 2, but Sarah Dixit is urging residents to wait for official results, which won’t be certified until November 25th, so this local race could still take a twist. Across the region, school levies and public safety measures are on the ballot and being closely tracked, with local leaders and families watching for updates that could reshape community services. It’s a chilly but pleasant start to the day in Spokane, with temperatures hovering around 42 degrees and partly cloudy skies. Your coat will come in handy, as the afternoon may bring highs near 46 before evening cools things down to the lower forties. Community events are filling the fall calendar. Today at 2 p.m., the City Parks and Hope Soccer Initiative will cut the ribbon on a brand new mini-pitch, expanding youth soccer access in Spokane. The celebration invites families and young players out to explore this fresh addition to local parks and kick off a season of fun and opportunity for aspiring athletes. If business is on your mind, the NEED Energy Education Workshop is running all day at CenterPlace in Spokane Valley, helping leaders and educators connect with clean energy topics and resources.

We begin today with a look at what’s making news around Spokane. In government updates, Mayor Lisa Brown’s emergency declaration is front and center as city agencies are ramping up support for residents impacted by both the ongoing government shutdown and increased needs in the community. The plan includes funding for 50 additional shelter beds, more eviction prevention contracts, and a mobile medication treatment team—all aiming to keep vulnerable families safe and indoors as we start the colder months. The council is expected to give final approval on Monday, and city staff say the priority is getting through a tough winter while laying the groundwork for longer-term support. In public safety headlines, a former Spokane County deputy is facing federal charges for alleged assault, and a legal battle is developing with a city council candidate being sued. Meanwhile, the community is keeping an eye on a case involving a suspect recently arrested in Florida who’s expected to be brought back to Spokane soon. Local law enforcement is also dealing with ongoing property crime—a woman has now been booked into the Spokane County Jail for trespassing eight times this year, highlighting challenges in persistent neighborhood offenses. Turning to some positive notes, congratulations go out to a Coeur d’Alene tribal dancer who has just won a national title, bringing recognition to Indigenous traditions right here in the Inland Northwest. Election season is almost here—if you haven’t voted already, now is the time. Residents are reminded to use official ballot drop boxes and ensure their vote counts, as community members like Rick Patsy Jr. turn casting a ballot into a yearly birthday tradition. Now, let’s take a look at what’s happening around town today and this weekend. The Day of the Dead, or Día de los Muertos, is being celebrated at Nuestras Raíces Community Center from noon to four with traditional ofrendas, vibrant performances, and Latino cuisine. Later tonight, the festivities move to No-Li Brewhouse for live music and contests—check it out if you want to experience Spokane’s diverse cultural spirit. For families this afternoon, the YWCA continues its Hope for the Holidays event, part of a ten-year tradition supporting local families facing domestic violence and homelessness. You can still participate by contributing to their Family Wish List Program and spreading hope as the holidays approach. Sports fans can head out to Spokane Valley where the Course is hosting the West Coast Conference Cross Country Championships today. Expect fast racing from top collegiate athletes representing twelve women’s teams and ten men’s teams. Ready for live entertainment?

The fall chill is definitely in the air, but Spokane is buzzing with warmth, energy, and just the right amount of Halloween spirit. Last night, the Spokane Chiefs hockey team returned home to take on their division rivals, the Everett Silvertips. The game opened with a burst from Everett, but Spokane’s own Nolan Saunderson gave fans something to cheer about with his first career goal. Despite their efforts, the Chiefs fell 5 to 2, but you’ll want to keep your eye on Saunderson and the rest of the squad as they gear up to take on the Saskatoon Blades this Wednesday. Plus, it will be the first Player Magnet Giveaway night, so if you’re a collector, grab your tickets early. If you’re looking for ways to enjoy spooky season, get ready for tonight’s Moonlit Monster Halloween Cruises over at Lake Coeur d’Alene. These are not your average boat rides—expect plenty of floating frights as each cruise is transformed into a haunted adventure.

It’s an interactive blend of puzzles and adventure that puts your detective skills to the test, perfect for friends, families, or anyone looking to switch up their Monday routine. For the sports fans out there, basketball is back as Gonzaga faces Western Oregon in an exhibition matchup at six tonight. It’s always a good time when the Zags return to the court, and tonight is your first opportunity this season to feel the electricity courtside. Looking ahead to tomorrow and beyond, you can sip and chat with Spokane Public Schools leaders over coffee Tuesday morning at Thomas Hammer Coffee Roasters, or catch the next chapter in Commellini Estate’s Haunted Evenings this Wednesday, with Italian food, live music, and eerie tales in a cozy setting.

Mon, 27 Oct 2025 08:58:29 -0000 trailer Inception Point AI Good morning, this is your Spokane Local Frequency for Monday, October 27, 2025. The fall chill is definitely in the air, but Spokane is buzzing with warmth, energy, and just the right amount of Halloween spirit. Last night, the Spokane Chiefs hockey team returned home to take on their division rivals, the Everett Silvertips. The game opened with a burst from Everett, but Spokane’s own Nolan Saunderson gave fans something to cheer about with his first career goal. Despite their efforts, the Chiefs fell 5 to 2, but you’ll want to keep your eye on Saunderson and the rest of the squad as they gear up to take on the Saskatoon Blades this Wednesday. Plus, it will be the first Player Magnet Giveaway night, so if you’re a collector, grab your tickets early. If you’re looking for ways to enjoy spooky season, get ready for tonight’s Moonlit Monster Halloween Cruises over at Lake Coeur d’Alene. These are not your average boat rides—expect plenty of floating frights as each cruise is transformed into a haunted adventure. Departure times run from five to eight thirty this evening, and spots tend to fill up fast, so plan ahead if you want to get in on the action. Back here in Spokane, today kicks off Día de los Muertos week with Latinos en Spokane. From five to seven this evening, drop by the Spokane Center for vibrant displays, traditional food, music, and community art. This heartfelt tradition is as much about honoring loved ones as it is about celebrating Spokane’s rich and diverse culture. Feeling competitive? Join in on the Scavenger Hunt Bank Heist happening downtown today. It’s an interactive blend of puzzles and adventure that puts your detective skills to the test, perfect for friends, families, or anyone looking to switch up their Monday routine. For the sports fans out there, basketball is back as Gonzaga faces Western Oregon in an exhibition matchup at six tonight. It’s always a good time when the Zags return to the court, and tonight is your first opportunity this season to feel the electricity courtside. Looking ahead to tomorrow and beyond, you can sip and chat with Spokane Public Schools leaders over coffee Tuesday morning at Thomas Hammer Coffee Roasters, or catch the next chapter in Commellini Estate’s Haunted Evenings this Wednesday, with Italian food, live music, and eerie tales in a cozy setting. Also, Broadway in Spokane is serving up fall theatre magic, including showings of cult favorite The Rocky Horror Picture Show. And if pumpkins are your thing, today is National Pumpkin Day. Enjoy a slice of pie, roast some seeds, or take a stroll through a pumpkin patch and soak up one of fall’s simple pleasures. No matter your mood today—sports, scares, or community connection—Spokane has something special waiting for you. This has been Spokane Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.

If you’ve stepped outside this morning, you know it’s shaping up to be a blustery start to our Sunday here in Spokane, with the National Weather Service keeping a wind advisory in effect until 9 a.m. So far, we’re seeing gusts up to 50 miles per hour through the metro and surrounding areas—think twice before leaving porch furniture out, and do give high-profile vehicles a bit of extra distance on local roads. There’s also a 60% chance of rain through the day, with temperatures topping out in the mid-50s, so bring a jacket and maybe an umbrella if you’re headed out and about. The good news is, after a bumpy morning, the breeze and rain should ease up as we head into the afternoon, just in time for what looks to be a packed lineup of events. For those eager for some live tunes, tonight is a big night for Spokane’s music scene. Over at the Knitting Factory, Minneapolis hip-hop artist Prof is set to hit the stage at 8 p.m. With special guests on the bill, it’s shaping up to be a high-energy night for fans of all things rap and beats. Meanwhile, Big Dipper is spotlighting local talent with Two Piece performing at 7:30 p.m.—another great option for anyone craving live, original sounds in a smaller, more intimate setting. And while we’re talking live entertainment, lovers of Fleetwood Mac—or anyone curious about a candlelit twist on a classic rock legend—can head to the historic Davenport Hotel tonight for a special tribute concert at 6:30 p.m. It’s a gorgeous venue, and with tickets starting at just over 30 bucks, it’s a unique way to wind down your weekend with some iconic melodies. Looking for a bit more family-friendly fun? Don’t forget about the ongoing Eastern Washington University Wheelchair Basketball Tournament in Cheney—today wraps up the action, and admission is free for all. It’s a fantastic way to support some incredible athletes and see firsthand the skill and heart that goes into adaptive sports. If you or the kids have a magical bent, the Harry Potter Wizards and Witches Party at Griffin Tavern runs until noon today, following last night’s magical concert at the Fox Theater. Costumes, themed drinks, and a little bit of make-believe—what better way to get into the Halloween spirit? Foodies and adventure lovers, make a note—Lake Coeur d’Alene’s Moonlit Monster Halloween Cruises are back, offering a floating haunted house experience for thrill-seekers of all ages. It’s just a short drive out of town, and tonight’s the last night, so if you’ve got a taste for spooky stories and lakeside views, it’s worth packing the family or the friends into the car and heading up north. Finally, in community news, Spokane continues to reckon with recent traffic incidents, including a pedestrian struck by a local truck, now hospitalized with life-threatening injuries. Our thoughts are with the victim and their family, and a reminder to everyone on the roads—especially in This content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI.

It is shaping up to be a packed weekend in Spokane, so let’s dive right into what’s making news and what’s happening around town. Our top headline this morning follows growing concern after the Spokane Police Department was named in a federal lawsuit alleging mistaken identity and claims of excessive force. The plaintiff, Kshawn Grigsby, says officers rammed his vehicle and drew guns on his family during a chaotic mistaken murder investigation stop last year. The city is declining to comment on pending litigation, but this case is stirring up conversations across the community about safety and police accountability. In another case rooted in public safety, Spokane is reeling from a recent deadly shooting near Gonzaga University. Police say an argument over a car title escalated, resulting in the fatal shooting of a 46-year-old man. The suspect, Zachary McGriff, is in custody facing first-degree murder and robbery charges, and concerns linger with neighbors seeking reassurance that their community remains a safe place to live and study. On the policy front, the Spokane City Council has announced it will introduce a new “Safe and Accessible Spaces” ordinance. This measure aims to address unauthorized camping and offer clearer guidelines for city spaces, affecting how local neighborhoods and people experiencing homelessness interact with urban areas. As the federal budget impasse continues in Washington D.C., worries mount locally. If no resolution is found by October 31st, over a hundred thousand Spokane residents who depend on SNAP benefits could see interruptions, putting extra strain on already burdened local food banks. Organizations like Second Harvest and Partners in the Northwest are ramping up efforts and asking for donations of non-perishable goods as demand is expected to surge in November. Now, let’s turn to weekend events that are sure to lift spirits. Downtown Spokane is getting spooky and sweet with the Spo-Candy Crawl happening all day from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. It’s a free, family-friendly event where you can solve riddles, visit themed scenes across downtown, and trade in your completed worksheet for fall treats at Riverfront Park’s Rotary Fountain Plaza. If you’re in the mood for music, the Spokane Symphony will perform the Music of Harry Potter this afternoon at 3 p.m. at The Fox Theater, promising a magical experience for wizards and muggles alike. For the night owls, the Knitting Factory hosts Emo Nite at 8 p.m. with all the nostalgic hits that defined a generation, so pull out your eyeliner and get ready to sing along. For those who crave something dramatic, Nick Dear’s adaptation of Frankenstein is on at the Spokane Civic Theatre this evening at 7:30 p.m., blending classic horror and philosophical intrigue on stage. And for women seeking inspiration, the Be Strong Live Long brunch event gathers at the Southside Community Center from 1 to 4 p.

As we wake up to crisp autumn air, Spokane is bustling with activity and spirit across the city. The big story overnight is a vehicle and pedestrian collision near Hamilton and Indiana. One person was sent to the hospital with life-threatening injuries, prompting a temporary road closure in the area. If your commute takes you past Hamilton and Indiana, be advised to watch for detours and emergency crews as they work to clear the scene and investigate. Community events today are filling Spokane with energy. At 3:30 this afternoon, the Salvation Army is inviting everyone to the ribbon cutting for the newly reconstructed Community Center Bridge over on East Indiana Avenue. This rebuild was made possible by local generosity and marks another milestone in Spokane’s push for accessible spaces for all ages and backgrounds. Expect speeches, cheers, and a chance to celebrate what collaboration can achieve. Halloween is just around the corner, and that means mystery and costumes are taking center stage. Tonight, step into history at Bozarth Mansion, where Communities in Schools of Northeast Washington is hosting a 1913-themed Murder Mystery. It all kicks off at 4:30 with an evening of glamour, suspense, and a little mischief, all supporting local programs for kids in need. If you prefer activism with your autumn outings, the Spokane VisBrigade is rallying with signs and banners at several I-90 overpasses between 4:30 and 6, continuing their weekly tradition of peaceful protest and community connection. For sports fans, ONE Spokane Stadium sees Rogers High facing North Central in girls’ soccer at 4 PM. Go out and cheer for your school, enjoy the brisk fall air, and support our local athletes as regional playoffs approach. If you’re looking ahead to the weekend, mark your calendars for Saturday’s Spo-Candy Crawl downtown. Grab a worksheet and hunt for spooky scenes to complete a riddle challenge – claim your fall treats at the Numerica Skate Ribbon in Riverfront Park. Families can also enjoy Trunk or Treat at El Mercadito, Halloween cruises on Lake Coeur d’Alene, and wheelchair basketball all weekend at EWU’s Reese Court in Cheney. And for Harry Potter fans, a Wizards and Witches party at Griffin Tavern follows the Spokane Symphony’s magical concert on Saturday.

High temperatures are set to hover around the mid fifties, making it perfect sweater weather and just right for that extra cup of coffee.

The district is also holding forums for parents this week focused on school funding and upcoming curriculum changes. These are great opportunities to ask questions and get involved in what’s happening in our classrooms. Speaking of community, the Spokane City Council will meet tonight at City Hall at six. On the agenda is a proposal for expanded downtown parking options and debates about new city-supported housing initiatives. If you want to have your voice heard or just stay in the loop, remember you can stream meetings live or catch up afterwards online. On the business front, there’s more movement on the North Bank as Spokane Arena prepares to host bigger events in the coming months. Downtown businesses are hoping for a boost, with several new restaurants opening on Main Avenue. If you are an early-morning walker or late-night snacker, be on the lookout for those grand opening signs and sample specials. Fall festivities continue around town this week. Green Bluff’s orchards are still welcoming families for apple picking and pumpkin patches, making for perfect weekend outings.

Winds out of the west-southwest are picking up at ten to twenty miles an hour, so bundle up if you’re heading outside for any early autumn adventures. Today kicks off with excitement in Riverside State Park, where the Wild Moose Chase trail runs have taken over the trails. Runners of all levels are lacing up for the scenic 25K, 10K, and 5K races, plus a fun run for the kids. It’s all for a good cause, raising funds to help future physical therapists attend a national conference—so even if you aren’t racing, show up and cheer on those taking on the wild course. Fans of live music, your day is brimming with choices. At the Spokane Pavilion, the indie-folk group Lord Huron is making a stop tonight, joined by Kevin Morby.

For those craving something heavier, Between the Buried and Me is rocking out at 8 pm, promising a high-energy show for all ages. Families and film buffs can catch Stage to Screen’s presentation of Inter Alia this afternoon—a thought-provoking play that bridges motherhood and the law, sparking conversations about conscience and identity. Showtimes start at two o’clock, so there’s plenty of time to grab a late brunch and catch some theater. As we look at what’s making headlines, Spokane police are seeking tips from the public to help solve a recent deadly shooting, and authorities in Coeur d’Alene are also reaching out for help regarding a wildlife crime. Meanwhile, a local story that’s sparking plenty of neighborhood conversation: Mayor Lisa Brown is officially encouraging folks to head home early and catch the Mariners game, bringing a dose of playoff excitement to the city. Sports fans are lamenting a tough loss for Washington State football—after leading by ten points, the Cougars fell to eighteenth-ranked Virginia in a close twenty-two to twenty finish. Tough one for the team, but hope springs eternal for next week’s matchup. Coming up this week, get ready for more live music, from tribute acts and jazz nights at local theaters to sensory-friendly performances featuring music from Harry Potter, perfect for wizards and muggles of every age. Community fairs, dance galas, and interactive choir events are also cropping up around town, so there’s no shortage of ways to join in and support Spokane’s vibrant cultural calendar. Keep an eye on the weather for those last few bursts of fall color in the parks and along the river, and make time to get outside—just don’t forget a rain jacket and maybe a warm drink.

Meanwhile, a local story that’s sparking plenty of neighborhood conversation: Mayor Lisa Brown is officially encouraging folks to head home early and catch the Mariners game, bringing a dose of playoff excitement to the city. Sports fans are lamenting a tough loss for Washington State football—after leading by ten points, the Cougars fell to eighteenth-ranked Virginia in a close twenty-two to twenty finish.

Step outside and you’ll notice it’s an absolutely crystal-clear start to the day—no clouds in our sky and a cool autumn crispness in the air. We’re at the very peak of fall colors across Spokane this week, so if you haven’t gotten out to enjoy nature’s show yet, now is the time. Popular walking spots like Manito Park, Riverfront Park, and the Centennial Trail promise breathtaking scenery as the trees reach their most vibrant hues, all thanks to those recent chilly nights. Grab a jacket and maybe your camera—it’s a perfect day for a stroll. As you head out, keep in mind that the sunshine might not be enough to offset those cold nights ahead. Temperatures are dipping well below forty tonight, so bundle up for your evening plans. Speaking of which, tonight’s one of the last chances this week to meet the city council candidates face-to-face. The Spokane NAACP is hosting a community forum at the Central Library from six to eight. Candidates Jonathan Bingle and Christopher Savage, among others, will be available to chat about their goals and visions for Spokane. With ballots going out today for the November election, officials urge voters to send ballots in as early as possible to avoid any last-minute issues and make sure your voice is heard. In city government news, Spokane is facing a $13 million budget deficit, so there are tough talks happening right now about possibly eliminating up to fifty city positions. About one third of those are currently vacant, but for those that aren’t, city officials say they recognize just how hard these decisions hit families and the broader community. Mayor Lisa Brown’s administration and the city council are reviewing all options ahead of their mid-biennium budget vote. On the crime front, Spokane police continue to seek community help in solving a deadly shooting with no clear motive. If you know anything, authorities encourage you to step forward. Elsewhere, tragic accidents have claimed lives, including a Spokane man in a motorcycle crash and a Kootenai County sheriff's deputy lost in a UTV accident. Our thoughts are with those affected. On a lighter note, for those seeking some fun this weekend, Spokane’s art scene is buzzing—check out gallery shows downtown and don’t miss local bands at the Bartlett or Lucky You Lounge. Cyclists have a charity ride coming up Saturday morning, starting at Kendall Yards, and with the weather holding steady, it should be a fantastic turnout. This has been Spokane Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.

Let’s kick off with a look at your Wednesday in Spokane. As the autumn colors deepen across the city, change is brewing not just in the trees, but in local plans as Spokane County invites residents to help shape future growth. The county’s Comprehensive Plan is being developed right now, and everyone is encouraged to give input on how Spokane will grow over the next twenty years. Your voice matters—so if you care about new parks, housing, or local business trends, this is your chance to steer Spokane’s future. Looking for something social and energizing today? Coffee lovers and networkers can grab a free cup and join a tour with complimentary Wi-Fi at 12709 East Mirabeau Parkway in Spokane Valley. Whether you’re scouting new workspaces or simply need a community vibe, this event runs today and is a great excuse to see what’s new in the Valley. Music fans have plenty to choose from this evening. Zola Restaurant and Live Music Bar continues to stake its claim as Spokane’s musical hub, with performances that spin from jazz to indie, pop to soul. Wednesday at Zola is especially exciting, serving as an incubator for emerging talent. Local artists, including the enigmatic group Akifumi Kato, take the stage to experiment, improvise, and share new sounds. If you’re a musician yourself or just want a taste of Spokane’s creative energy, this is your spot to get inspired and get involved. For theater buffs, Broadway Spokane is wrapping up its run of Stereophonic tonight, so if you’re craving dramatic sets and live performances, this is your last chance to grab tickets. If you’re already thinking ahead, mark your calendar for the big musical events coming soon—The Rocky Horror Picture Show lands later this month, and Moulin Rouge! The Musical rolls in November. Need a more relaxed outing this afternoon? Check out happy hour at Outsider on North Howard Street or at Purgatory Craft Beer and Whiskey on Main Avenue. These local favorites offer specials between two and six, and they’re perfect spots if you want to catch up with friends or unwind after work. Students at Spokane Community College have a treat today with the Game Room open for free pool, ping pong, video games, and more—all day long. It’s a comfortable way to hang out and connect on campus. And if you’re curious about mindfulness or looking for some midweek calm, the Spokane Buddhist Temple is hosting an introduction to Buddhism. The session starts at six tonight and welcomes anyone from beginners to longtime practitioners. Just north of us, the annual Apple Fest is in full swing today in Sandpoint. If you’re up for a short road trip, this festival packs fall fun into every corner, with food, crafts, and activities for all ages. That’s a snapshot of what’s happening in Spokane today.

It is a beautiful start to the second week of October here in Spokane, and if you are looking to shake off those Monday blues, the city has you covered with plenty to do. For fitness fans, the Spokane Marathon continues all week long, having kicked off yesterday and running through October nineteenth. Runners of all levels are converging on downtown’s Riverfront Park, with marathon, half marathon, relay, and 10K options ensuring there’s something for everyone. Even if you are not running, it is worth strolling down to the finish line to soak up the vibrant energy and cheer on locals as they take home their finisher shirts and hoodies. Downtown also has a mysterious twist today with the Bank Heist Scavenger Hunt. Teams and solo sleuths will be darting through historic streets, solving puzzles and cracking codes, all for a shot at glory. It is a fun way to see Spokane from a new angle and flex those detective muscles. If you are thinking ahead to Halloween, Riverfront Park will soon host free Ghost Tours on October 23rd and 25th. Led by local historian Chet Caskey, these slightly spooky walks kick off at dusk from the Visit Spokane Visitor Center and will arm you with ghost meters and lanterns for an atmospheric stroll through legends and haunted history. Maybe you would rather unwind with some laughter. The Spokane Comedy Club wraps up a weekend of shows with Uncle Lazer taking the stage and launches New Talent Tuesday tomorrow. If you are in the mood for happy hour, Purgatory Craft Beer and Whiskey on West Main is pouring discounted pints and craft cocktails from two to six this afternoon.

Gather your smartest friends, grab some barbecue, and try to snag those top prizes. On the giving back front, it is still Socktober, and Spokane Valley’s lively Socktober Dash continues to collect socks for kids in need all month long. The event is embracing an unforgettable 80s vibe this year, so if you want to get involved or just dress up for a good cause, there is still time to join up and make a difference for local families. And just a note for our neighbors and anyone traveling over to Montana, today marks their first Indigenous Peoples Day celebrated statewide, a meaningful milestone honoring Indigenous heritage and contributions with events throughout the region.

I’m your host, and I’m here to connect you to everything that’s happening in our city and around the Inland Northwest—events, news, and stories that matter to you. Let’s start with some serious developments. This week, the Spokane Police Department has been actively responding to downtown issues, especially concerning drug use and trespassing. Police Chief Kevin Hall is speaking openly about the city’s ongoing challenge with its anti-camping ordinance—originally designed to make it easier to connect unhoused individuals with services, but so far, it hasn’t resulted in any citations or, unfortunately, meaningful connections to housing and health resources. The city is rethinking its approach, considering changes that would give officers more discretion—and more tools—to encourage people to seek help rather than just cycle through jail. The focus remains on community safety and real solutions for those most at risk, especially as winter approaches. In a troubling case, Dupree Meadows, fifty-seven, appeared in court this week, facing charges of arson and assault after an incident last month under the North Brown Street viaduct. Court documents detail how another man was set on fire, suffering burns on over two-thirds of his body, and had to be flown to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle. The case underscores the complexities of homelessness and mental health in our community, as Meadows’ own lack of stable housing and criminal history complicate both the legal and human sides of the story. The victim and suspect had known each other for a decade, reminding us that these issues are deeply personal, even as they play out in public spaces. Switching gears, let’s talk about what you can do today. If you’re looking for something totally unique, check out Shootfest at Northtown Mall. Starting just after noon, this basketball edition of “Horse” is a community favorite, drawing players, families, and spectators for a day of friendly competition. Organizers say the rules are tweaked for fairness—no dunking or fancy dribbling, so anyone can win. Even fourteen-year-old Louis Degenhart, last year’s champion, is back for another shot. Beyond the game, local businesses are hoping for a boost as shoppers stick around to cheer and maybe pick up a few things. Head on down, register to play if you dare, or just enjoy the show and the community vibe. For comedy fans, the Spokane Comedy Club has a stacked weekend. The Dope Show kicks off this afternoon, and the legendary Christopher Titus is in town for a special event tonight—definitely a hot ticket for those who love smart, edgy humor. Looking ahead, Uncle Lazer takes the stage tomorrow, and if you’re aiming for laughs, this is the place. For music lovers, rock fans, and violin virtuosos alike, Halestorm hits the Spokane Arena tonight, with Lindsey Stirling as the opener.

Stepping outside, you’ll find the crisp air and clear skies that come with fall in Spokane. Today’s forecast calls for plenty of sunshine with a high of seventy-three and a low around forty-eight, so it’s a beautiful day to get out and enjoy the city. In top news, a bizarre incident this week in Spokane Valley saw a man break into a local bank using a flowerpot. The suspect told deputies he was trying to help someone he thought was inside, but after discovering the building was empty, he stayed anyway and was soon surrounded by authorities. The man is now facing burglary and malicious mischief charges. Fortunately, no injuries were reported, but repairs to the bank’s front door are expected to be costly. On the city beat, Spokane continues to adapt to new statewide housing mandates, with local leaders discussing the impacts of upcoming co-living requirements. This push for shared housing is aimed at expanding affordable options, and as the deadline approaches, residents and city officials alike are working to ensure Spokane’s neighborhoods remain both welcoming and vibrant. If you’re looking to be more involved or just want to enjoy what Spokane has to offer today, there’s plenty going on. Early this evening, the Spokane Buddhist Temple is hosting a “Beginning Buddhism” session with visiting monastics, open to anyone curious about mindfulness or meditation. Meanwhile, over at Swing Lounge downtown, happy hour runs from three to five thirty, so it’s a great spot to catch up with friends or unwind after work. Sports fans can celebrate local youth athletics with the Spokane Shadow Soccer Club in action this week, building on a strong performance from the weekend. For those preferring to be active participants, the A4Y Rogers Zone Andrew Rypien run takes place today, offering a chance to hit the pavement, meet neighbors, and support a great cause. It’s also Customer Service Week, so take a moment to thank some of the city’s friendly faces who help Spokane run smoothly—whether you’re calling City Hall or stopping into your local library. Looking ahead, get ready for more autumn celebrations from the spooky Candlelight Halloween concerts on the thirtieth, to family-friendly theater performances popping up later in the month. Keep an eye on community calendars for all the latest, and don’t forget, the sunrise Sukkot service is happening bright and early at Temple Beth Shalom. That’s your Spokane snapshot for Wednesday. Enjoy all that our city has to offer today, whether you’re catching an event, cheering on local teams, or just soaking up the beautiful fall weather. This has been Spokane Local Frequency.

We’re waking up to clear skies this morning with temperatures starting in the mid-forties and heading for a high around sixty-five degrees later today, a perfect forecast for anyone heading out or thinking about squeezing in a bit more time outdoors as autumn unfolds its colors across the city. Big news this week, Spokane is launching a new homeless outreach model aimed at providing quicker and more coordinated support for individuals in need. The first week of October sees teams on the ground, boosting the city’s efforts to connect folks with vital services and stable housing. Community leaders hope this approach will not only make a difference for Spokane’s homeless population but also improve the quality of life for all residents, as the outreach teams collaborate closely with local agencies and health services. If you’re looking for things to do today and want to support local, the Hillyard Farmers Market runs this afternoon at the Northeast Community Center starting at 3 p.m. It’s the perfect place to grab fresh produce, check out homemade goods, and connect directly with some of the farmers and makers who keep Spokane’s food scene thriving. Later today, foodies can head downtown to Cochinito Taqueria for their daily happy hour from three to five thirty. It’s a great after-work spot to enjoy inventive tacos and share plates with friends in a lively atmosphere. For all of the campus crew at Spokane Falls, the Alliance Club holds its weekly meeting at 2 p.m. in the LGBTQ plus Student Center. It’s a welcoming space for students to connect, find community, and discuss the issues that matter most to them. If antiquing and one-of-a-kind finds are more your style, don’t miss the last day of Custer’s 50th Annual Fall Antique and Vintage Show at the Spokane County Fair and Expo Center. Discover treasures ranging from rare collectibles to mid-century and rustic garden gems as over a hundred Northwest vendors transform the hall into a vintage wonderland. This event has something for everyone, whether you’re a serious collector or just love a trip down memory lane. In other trending stories this morning, a recent sting operation in Liberty Lake has led to thirteen arrests connected to child exploitation, highlighting the ongoing challenges authorities face in keeping our communities safe. Meanwhile, Washington wildlife officials are urging everyone to secure food deliveries and outdoor trash bins after a video surfaced of a black bear roaming a Spokane neighborhood, reminding us all to stay bear aware as autumn pushes local wildlife closer to town.

We’re waking up to a beautiful autumn day across Spokane, with sunny skies, gentle winds, and a high near 65 degrees expected this afternoon, so grab a light jacket and get outside to catch those golden rays before the chill sets in tonight. If you’re searching for some real fall flavor, Spokane Valley is still bustling with the sights and sounds of the Spokane Renaissance Faire, wrapping up today at 5 p.m. If you’re a fan of costumes, jousting knights, and old-world revelry, this is your last chance to dive into medieval magic. Tickets are available at the entrance on North Havana Street, and the festival also features live music, themed markets, and, of course, plenty of festive eats to keep you satisfied. Right downtown, Riverfront Park is hosting two events that bring Spokane together. The Breakthrough T1D Walk kicks off at 10 a.m., supporting our neighbors affected by type 1 diabetes. It’s a great way to get your heart pumping with a 5K stroll through one of Spokane’s most scenic spots, all while rallying around a cause that touches so many lives. As you linger in the park, don’t miss WSECU Fall Fest, where families can soak up the autumn fun without leaving city limits, enjoying seasonal crafts, live performances, and tasty treats. For music lovers, this afternoon offers a treat with pianist Zeru Wang performing a recital of Chopin’s works at St. John’s as part of their renowned music series. The show begins at 3 p.m., promising an hour of exquisite piano artistry from a beloved local favorite. Later, the Gonzaga Theatre invites you to immerse yourself in storytelling with Climate Change Theatre Action, a thought-provoking series of short plays that connect Spokane to the global environmental movement. Curtain rises at 2 p.m.—perfect timing if you want to catch both the arts and a bit of sunshine. Custer’s 50th Annual Fall Antique Show wraps up at the County Fair and Expo Center today, so if treasure hunting is your thing, swing by and discover vintage finds before doors close. Looking ahead, mark your calendars: WSU’s Fall Career Expo kicks off Tuesday, a great opportunity for students and professionals ready to network and explore new directions. And for the little ones—or the young at heart—The SpongeBob Musical opens on Friday, October 10th, at Spokane Children’s Theatre, bringing laughter and song to the stage. On the local news front, the community is still abuzz about the recent child exploitation sting operation in Liberty Lake, which led to 13 arrests—a stark reminder of the importance of vigilance in keeping our neighborhoods safe. Also trending is a reminder from state wildlife officials, prompted by a black bear sighting, to secure your food and deliveries if you live near forested areas.

It is a crisp fall morning here in the Inland Northwest, and we have a full slate of news and events to keep you in the know and out having fun in your city. Let’s start downtown where the WSECU Fall Fest is taking over Riverfront Park and River Park Square from 11 this morning until 5 this afternoon. Free admission means no excuses to miss out on pumpkin carving contests, a petting zoo, live jazz, and a celebration of all things fall. Bring a pumpkin from home or pick one up at the event, and don’t forget you can donate to the MLK Food Bank while you’re there. It is family-friendly and a great way to support your community while having a blast as the leaves start to turn. For those wanting to travel back in time, the Spokane Renaissance Fair is back and bigger than ever at the Spokane County Fairgrounds today and tomorrow. There are more than 250 vendors and performers, so whether you’re craving a turkey leg, looking to cheer on a jousting match, or want to browse handmade crafts, you’ll find it all here. If you are child-free and adventurous, tonight’s 21 and up KnightFall event will feature a concert by The Wellerman. Huzzah for a little medieval magic right in our backyard. Sports fans can catch the Spokane Zephyr FC as they take on Lexington SC at 6 p.m. tonight over at One Spokane Stadium. It's a chance to support local soccer and enjoy fall sports under the lights downtown. If you are looking for something to sip on, head to Arbor Crest for Oktoberfest celebrations kicking off at noon. Enjoy live music, special wine releases, and festive tastings. It’s a perfect way to spend a Saturday afternoon with friends, and you’ll have fantastic views to boot. Turning to the news, Spokane is still absorbing the impact of last weekend’s tragic events at Eastern State Hospital, where security guard Colleen Bass lost her life and the suspect was involved in a series of violent incidents throughout the night. The Spokane County Sheriff’s Office has released more information this week, though the motive remains unknown. Our thoughts are with the families and all those affected as the community continues to process the loss. In lighter news, the Safe and Healthy Spokane Task Force officially launched this week, pledging real action on public safety and mental health challenges in the region. They’ll be working over the next several months to craft a comprehensive plan, and community members are hopeful for meaningful results. Meanwhile, the Spokane Regional Health District announced the resignation of their administrative officer, Alicia Thompson, triggering another leadership search just two years after her appointment. Interim appointments have been made while the Board of Health begins a new hiring process.

Kicking off your Thursday, Spokane wakes up under those rainclouds we’ve seen all week, but the forecast promises things will start to dry out this afternoon. After some steady showers overnight and a chilly start to the day—you might even have spotted your breath on the South Hill—expect those clouds to slowly clear, with highs in the low sixties. By Friday and Saturday, it’s back to plenty of sunshine, so outdoor plans should be in good shape for the weekend. Today’s top news is stirring up conversation across Spokane. The so-called South Hill rapist Kevin Coe, now 78 years old, is likely to be released tomorrow. Experts say due to heart disease, limited mobility, and ongoing mental health issues, he’s unlikely to reoffend. While the Attorney General’s office isn’t fighting the release, Coe will remain a registered sex offender for life and plans call for him to move into an adult group home. Look for special coverage after the hearing, which could bring closure for some and discomfort for others in the community. Updates are also in on crime from earlier in the week—the Medical Examiner has identified the suspect in the deadly Medical Lake crime spree as Sathaniel Bunch, who died by suicide after fatally shooting a security guard at Eastern State Hospital. Meanwhile, Coeur d’Alene detectives are still seeking information after the brutal attack on Susan Stratton. They’re urging anyone in the Skyline area with security footage from late September 17th to the early hours of the 18th to come forward. Business owners are bracing for a change as Washington’s minimum wage is set to rise to $17.13 an hour in 2026, keeping the state at the top of the nation for pay floors. Workers are cheering the increase, but some local business groups, including Greater Spokane Incorporated, worry the hike will squeeze small employers and tighten family budgets as prices adjust. For those looking to enjoy a little fun tonight, you can head over to the Spokane After Dark Murder Mystery event at 204 East Desmet Avenue. Or take the family down the yellow brick road with the Wonderful Wizard of Oz Experience happening today in town—perfect for kids and nostalgia lovers alike. Board game and anime fans can check out Sage’s Portal Café for a full slate of gaming events, including trivia and new card game demo nights. For those aiming for something more creative, remember that the 47th Annual Quilt Show kicks off tomorrow at the Spokane County Fair and Expo Center, running all weekend with hundreds of beautiful quilts on display. Before we go, a special mention: a group of local veterans is flying to Washington, DC today to visit the memorials built in their honor.

It is a classic Inland Northwest fall morning out there, so grab your coffee, layer up, and let’s dive into what’s happening in Spokane today and tonight. For those looking to get active first thing, Grant Park is hosting the A4Y Ferris Zone community event, with outdoor activities across the green space. These events are known for bringing together families, students, and neighbors in a relaxed, welcoming setting. It’s a perfect way to soak in some midweek sunshine before the crisp autumn air really sets in. If you’re feeling creative, Gonzaga University is buzzing today with a special Wolfbat Mask Making Workshop in the Printmaking Studio at Jundt 101. Renowned artist Dennis McNett is on campus leading hands-on sessions all day, so whether you’re an art student, a DIY enthusiast, or just curious, you’ll have a chance to try your hand at something totally original. McNett is also giving talks around campus, so keep your ears open for surprise pop-ups. Later in the day, bring your friends and your appetite for fun to Dave and Buster’s on Division for their half-price games all Wednesday long. This is always a crowd-pleaser, and a great way to break up the week with a little healthy competition and plenty of laughs. As evening settles in, Riverfront Park invites the entire community to a special event in recognition of Domestic Violence Action Month.

It is a classic Inland Northwest fall morning out there, so grab your coffee, layer up, and let’s dive into what’s happening in Spokane today and tonight. For those looking to get active first thing, Grant Park is hosting the A4Y Ferris Zone community event, with outdoor activities across the green space. These events are known for bringing together families, students, and neighbors in a relaxed, welcoming setting. It’s a perfect way to soak in some midweek sunshine before the crisp autumn air really sets in. If you’re feeling creative, Gonzaga University is buzzing today with a special Wolfbat Mask Making Workshop in the Printmaking Studio at Jundt 101. Renowned artist Dennis McNett is on campus leading hands-on sessions all day, so whether you’re an art student, a DIY enthusiast, or just curious, you’ll have a chance to try your hand at something totally original.

We’re kicking off a brand new week here in Spokane with news, events, and a little inspiration to get you started. It’s a mild and partly cloudy morning out there, with temps expected to climb to the low 80s later this afternoon, so it’s a perfect day to get outside and enjoy all the city has to offer. First up in local happenings, Gonzaga University is hosting a truly unique Wolfbat Mask Making Workshop today from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at the Printmaking Studio in Jundt 101. Artist Dennis McNett is leading the event, inviting locals to learn about the craft, try their hand at mask-making, and experience the creativity that’s bubbling around campus. If you can’t make it today, don’t worry—the workshop continues throughout the week, alongside lectures and talks for those interested in learning more. On the fun and quirky side of community life, yesterday’s SpoCake event at the Gesa Pavilion brought together Spokane’s most passionate cake aficionados for a sweet afternoon of sharing, tasting, and celebrating all things cake. If your social feed is flooded with frosted masterpieces, now you know why! Keep an eye out for next year’s installment—just remember, admission means bringing a cake big enough to share. If you’re looking for entertainment tonight, live music fans are in luck—Hollywood Undead, along with Point North, is rocking the Knitting Factory stage at 7 p.m. Expect a high-energy show and a full house, with tickets pretty much sold out, so if you snagged yours in advance, you’re in for a treat. Prefer some laughs instead? The Spokane Comedy Club has its door open this week for Open Mic Night and the always unpredictable New Talent Tuesday, featuring both up-and-coming and veteran comedians. The shows are free and open to anyone over 18, with plenty of opportunity to discover your new local favorite. Nature lovers, don’t forget that Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area is at its fall best. Whether you’re hiking, fishing, or just enjoying an autumn picnic by the water, it’s the perfect nearby escape to recharge as we head into October. Finally, on the civic side, Spokane Valley is hosting regular Weight Watchers meetings this morning at the Small Meeting Room on Discovery Plaza—just one of many ways local groups are supporting each other to kick off the week strong. That’s what’s happening today in and around Spokane. Whether you’re trying your hand at making art, catching a concert, sampling cake, or just enjoying the fall weather, there’s no shortage of ways to connect with your community.

Kicking off this beautiful fall Sunday, it is a cool 60 degrees and partly cloudy across Spokane. Whether you are up early for coffee or just starting your day, there is a buzz of energy around town. Last night at the Spokane Arena, the Spokane Chiefs thrilled hockey fans by blanking the Tri-City Americans three to nothing. The highlight was Carter Esler earning his first career shutout, helping Spokane start their home schedule on a high note. If you missed the action, do not worry; the Chiefs are back at home next weekend to face the Prince George Cougars, with special events including an Educator Appreciation Night and a fun schedule giveaway. The energy in the arena is contagious and tickets are available if you want in on the action. Today is shaping up to be a great day for connecting with community and celebrating Spokane’s diversity. This morning, Gonzaga's Unity Brunch is happening until 11 a.m. at Shawn O’Donnell’s on North Monroe. It is a warm gathering for alumni and community members to meet, swap stories, and learn about Gonzaga’s LGBTQ+ and alumni of color communities. Walk-up guests are welcome, so swing by for good food and good company. Later on, the community is coming together at Bethany Presbyterian Church at 3 p.m. for a land dedication ceremony at 2607 South Ray Street. After suffering a major fire, the church is turning a new page by dedicating the land to a new purpose, and all are invited to join in reflection and hope for the future. If you want entertainment with a little magic and a lot of flair, the Venardos Circus is setting up its tent at Spokane Valley Mall with a matinee at 2 this afternoon. Expect acrobatics and big top fun for the whole family. For those who love live performances, today is your last chance to catch the hit musical Some Like It Hot at the First Interstate Center for the Arts; the curtain rises at 2 and again at 7:30. If music moves you, the Spokane String Quartet performs this afternoon at 3 at the historic Fox Theater, offering a refined close to your weekend. Comedy fans, comedian John Caparulo is performing at the Spokane Comedy Club this evening, promising side-splitting laughs to round out your Sunday. On the news front, Spokane continues to feel the ripples of the broader construction slowdown affecting Washington, leading to fewer local projects and some caution in the job market. However, major investments like the $85 million Fairchild Air Force Base renovation are providing hope, and there are positive signs in healthcare, data centers, and even some improvement in the multifamily housing sector as we look toward the next year. For drivers, be aware that emergency repairs have closed some I-90 and US 195 ramps after a recent crash, so check your route before heading out.

Today marks a special celebration for the city with the Bing Crosby: Celebrating 100 Years of Entertainment event at Gonzaga University’s Jepson Center. From 11 to noon, join author Lauren Harris as she shares stories about Spokane’s own Bing Crosby and how he brought his charm from local childhood to global stardom. If you catch the event, don’t miss the Bing Crosby House Museum’s open hours from noon to 4 p.m., a rare chance to go inside and see memorabilia commemorating this Spokane legend. If you’re itching to get out and experience the arts, the Little Spokane River Artist Studio Tour is back for its 18th year. This one-day-only event runs from ten to five, with more than fifty local artists showcasing their work across four studios nestled along the scenic Little Spokane River. Admission is free and it’s the perfect way to discover everything from glasswork to painting and pottery, with artists on hand to share their stories and techniques. It’s a beautiful way to connect with Spokane’s creative side. For families, the fifteenth annual Touch-a-Truck event is revving up at Spokane Community College. From nine to two, kids can climb aboard fire trucks, dump trucks, delivery vans, and more; it’s a hands-on experience that brings out the kid in all of us, plus it’s a fundraising favorite that’s been bringing Spokane families together for over a decade. If you’ve got young children or you’re just a vehicle enthusiast, this is one not to miss. If laughs are more your style tonight, John Caparulo brings his energetic comedy to the Spokane Comedy Club for an adults-only show. Caparulo’s sharp wit has been featured on Comedy Central and late-night TV, so grab tickets if you’re looking to wrap up the day with some big laughs. In city news, there’s concern among local business owners over repeat incidents of vandalism and break-ins, especially following the recent Dutch Bros window shattering in Spokane Valley and several other incidents. Police have apprehended a suspect, but overcrowding at the county jail raises questions about public safety and ongoing business costs. Local owners are calling for stronger responses and support. There’s also a lot of attention on the evolving homelessness plan for Spokane.

Runners, walkers, bands, and bubble-blowers came together to raise crucial funds for the Community Cancer Fund, supporting Inland Northwest families battling cancer. Organizers say this year's event brought out some of the best crowd energy yet, with cheer zones, Scream Tunnels, and even donuts along the scenic tree-lined route. Monday means there’s another chance to do good with your dinner. Tonight from five to eight, the Texas Roadhouse on North Newport Highway hosts the annual Tip-A-Cop event. Spokane officers will swap badges for aprons, serving as celebrity waiters to raise money for Special Olympics Washington. All tips from police go directly to support over twelve thousand athletes with intellectual and developmental disabilities right here in our state. It’s all part of a year-long 50th anniversary celebration for Special Olympics Washington, so come hungry and ready to give. On the sports front, it was high drama last night as Spokane Velocity FC took on first-place Chattanooga Red Wolves. The match ended in a narrow 2-1 defeat for Spokane after leading into the second half. Despite the loss, spirits remain high with midfielder Luis Gil and forward Neco Brett promising a strong rebound this Saturday when Velocity hosts Greenville Triumph at ONE Spokane Stadium. Kickoff is at six and tickets are moving fast, so soccer fans should act quickly. If you’re eyeing some fall adventures, don’t forget the Spokane RV Expo Sale wraps up today at the Spokane County Fair and Expo Center.

Waking up in Spokane today means you’re stepping into a city with a ton of energy and plenty to do. First, music lovers have reason to celebrate – the Boomjam Music Festival is taking over the Spokane Convention Center starting at noon. It’s all about indie bands, community, great food, and art. The organizers promise a welcoming, all-ages environment perfect for making new friends and supporting local artists. If you want live music and good vibes right in the heart of downtown, Boomjam should be at the top of your list. Elsewhere today, Riverfront Park is offering up something special for those who want to unwind in style – Sip and Soar is back this evening. Guests get to savor local beverages and snacks while taking in views from the Numerica SkyRide, and that mix of epic scenery and relaxed atmosphere is a signature Spokane experience. Later at the Gesa Pavilion, MMA fans can catch Fights Under the Lights, an electrifying live fight night that promises action from start to finish. On the civic front, Spokane has been in headlines with some major local developments. This week, a Spokane attorney slammed the courts over free speech after a controversial ruling – the city celebrated victory after a First Amendment lawsuit was dismissed. For those following city finances, Spokane Mayor Lisa Brown recently announced a $13 million budget deficit driven by inflation, federal contract uncertainty, and lower sales tax revenue as local families tighten their belts. There’s big news in public safety too – the “South Hill Rapist” Kevin Coe is expected to be released in early October. The Washington Attorney General confirms he’ll be required to register as a sex offender for life, while resources are being offered to his victims as the city prepares for his release. In construction news, the month-long strike that brought key projects in Spokane and Spokane Valley to a halt has ended. Crews are back at work, but several road, bridge, and paving projects are now running about two weeks behind schedule. Some work may extend into October or November if the weather holds, so expect to see more orange cones around town as workers race to finish before fall settles in. Speaking of fall, today’s weather is giving us a final burst of summer with sunshine and temps in the low 80s. But get ready, because cool, breezy showers roll in Sunday and Monday marks the official start of autumn. That means foliage, pumpkin spice, and more cozy events will be popping up rapidly in the coming weeks. Families should watch for a few fun happenings next weekend, like the Cake Lovers’ Celebration on Sunday and skating with music and fun at the Gesa Pavilion. For those who love arts and culture, there’s an intimate concert with Raegan Leilani at Tay Tay’s Café coming soon, plus organist Lukas Hasler performing at St. John’s Cathedral to kick off the 80th season for the local American Guild This content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI.

Our days are getting a touch shorter, and the cool bite of autumn is just around the corner, but Spokane is as bustling as ever. If you’re plugged into what’s next for our neighborhoods, the big news this week is the Together Spokane tax proposal hitting the November ballot. This package could funnel nearly half a billion dollars into upgrading not just aging elementary schools like Adams and Madison, but also play equipment, sports fields, and lighting in parks across Spokane. Imagine more vibrant third spaces—those are free gathering spots like parks and libraries—especially in northeast Spokane where community advocates say they’re needed most, providing kids and families with safe, shaded places to unwind and connect. Even Spokane City Council member Michael Cathcart, typically cautious about tax hikes, is throwing his support behind it, citing just how many projects and partnerships would land in often-overlooked parts of our city. There are also plans to launch a new trades high school at Spokane Community College, giving students a chance to graduate ready for careers in high-demand fields—a real win for workforce development and youth opportunity. Speaking of connections, the civic conversation continues as Spokane County faces another year of tight budgeting. At last week’s State of the County, Board Chair Mary Kuney noted some bright spots—our sheriff’s office is finally fully staffed, county parks have seen major upgrades, and new-business growth remains strong. But with fatal drug overdoses on the rise and an estimated $20 million budget shortfall looming, leaders are making tough choices, freezing nonessential hires and calling for seven percent cuts across departments. Residents can join upcoming budget discussions at the commissioners’ hearing room and on Zoom—the first is set for next Tuesday at 2 pm. Meanwhile, in response to ongoing behavioral health and public safety challenges, a new privately led regional task force is taking shape. This group, funded by local business and nonprofit partners, aims to bring together everyone from health care workers to formerly incarcerated individuals to chart a smarter, more effective path forward. Similar strategies elsewhere, like Whatcom County’s recent success, show promise, and Spokane’s hoping to learn and adapt. But this week isn’t only about work and policy. Before we say goodbye to summer’s warmth, mark your calendars for the city’s first-ever Pacific Northwest Food and Wine Festival, kicking off next weekend, September 26 to 28, across the historic Davenport hotels downtown. This isn’t just any tasting event—think three days of grand tastings, chef-led dinners under the stars, interactive cooking classes, and jazz brunches, all designed to show off the region’s best bites and sips. Tickets are capped to keep things intimate, and some events are already sold out, so if you want in, check soon.

We’re waking up in Spokane to a run of beautiful weather—cooler mornings, hot afternoons, and plenty of sunshine. Highs today and through the week are expected to be well above seasonal norms, with temperatures surging into the mid-80s across the Inland Northwest, so whether you’re planning a walk in Riverfront Park or a quick commute downtown, enjoy that late-summer warmth while it lasts. That sun is also giving a much-needed boost to folks still recovering from this season’s wildfire impacts. The Crown Creek Fire continues to be a story west of us, where some residents are just beginning the long process of rebuilding after losing their homes. Community support remains strong, with local fundraisers and neighbors pitching in to help those who need a hand. On the civic front, last night saw the launch of Spokane’s Together Spokane townhalls, starting in Northeast Spokane, where residents got their chance to sound off on a proposed bond and levy package. If it passes, homeowners could see about eleven dollars more per month in taxes for a $450,000 home starting next year. The funds would go toward a variety of community improvements, including new sports fields, playground makeovers, and infrastructure upgrades in parks and schools. As you might expect, the plan is sparking some debate, with spirited conversations over the value of new investments versus the pinch to household budgets. Organizers and local leaders encourage everyone to attend the upcoming townhalls to ask questions and weigh in before the vote six weeks from now. Across the river in Spokane Valley, leaders are tightening up their disaster plans, updating the county’s hazard mitigation roadmap in response to rising wildfire risks and severe storms. After listening to community members, the plan now prioritizes wildfire defenses and even adds hazardous materials to the watchlist, given all the freight that moves through the valley. Residents are encouraged to stay informed as these plans develop, since preparedness is key to minimizing the impacts of future emergencies. Looking for something fun tonight? The Spokane Arena is hosting a concert, with doors opening at seven and the show starting at eight. It’s a great chance to catch some live music and escape the midweek grind. If you love local arts, tomorrow night the Martin Woldson Theater at the Fox will raise the curtain on another performance, so check their calendar for tickets and show details. For those wanting to engage with city government or stay up to date on public safety, Spokane Police are asking the community for help in locating a missing endangered adult male. If you have information, you can contact the city’s 311 line or SPD directly. And don’t forget—the Bicycling Advisory Board is working to make Spokane a more bike-friendly city.

Starting off, we got a break from the dry spell this weekend as the Inland Northwest enjoyed some much-needed rain yesterday. With all the wildfire activity north of Spokane—fifteen large fires were burning in the mountain regions to our north—this rain was a welcome relief for our forests and a reminder to be fire smart as things dry out again later in the week. If you're driving this morning, you'll notice gas prices are still the talk of the town. Washington keeps the top spot in the U.S. for the highest average gas, with Spokane folks paying around four sixty-six a gallon. That’s a full dollar fifteen more than over the border in Idaho, where neighbors fill up for three fifty-one. So, don’t be surprised if you see more lines at the pumps near State Line, or even an uptick on Spokane Transit—public transit ridership is currently running above ten million rides this year, nearly doubling what we saw just four years ago. Looking ahead to today’s lineup of things to do around town, there’s a little something for everyone. At noon, Gonzaga University is hosting a free talk at Hemmingson Auditorium. Baylor professor Robert Garcia will be exploring the imaginative world of C.S. Lewis and his eschatological views—a thoughtful way to spend your lunch hour if you like a mix of philosophy and fantasy. Later tonight, Browne Family Vineyards brings the fun with Boombox Bingo. Game night kicks off at six, and while it’s free to play, they just ask that you grab some food or a glass of wine or whiskey while you compete for giveaway prizes. If bingo’s not your speed, Monday evenings around town also feature live music at several venues and karaoke at local pubs—worth checking out if you need to wind down after work. If you’re already planning your week ahead, mark your calendar for this Friday. Gonzaga’s Myrtle Woldson Performing Arts Center debuts “Sea Change Within Us,” a multimedia dance performance blending choreography with powerful stories about water and climate in Washington. It promises to be both moving and thought-provoking, with participation from Gonzaga dance students and Seattle’s own Karin Stevens Dance company. Before you head out, the weather today starts you off with partly cloudy skies and mild temperatures—the morning hovering around sixty, warming to the upper sixties by afternoon. Winds will be light, perfect for a stroll in Riverfront Park or some time on a patio. This has been Spokane Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.

First up, keep an umbrella handy today, Spokane. The National Weather Service is tracking a 16 percent chance of thunderstorms rolling through this afternoon into the evening, most likely between two and eight o’clock. There could be gusty winds up to 30 miles per hour, that classic Eastern Washington lightning, and even some pea-sized hail in spots. While not everyone will see storms, if those dark clouds roll in where you are, play it safe—forecasters remind everyone sudden gusts can impact drivers, and the dry brush across the region could mean lightning sparks a quick grass fire. If you’re headed outdoors, have a backup plan for shelter just in case. Excitement is revving up at the Spokane County Interstate Fair today with the much-anticipated Demolition Derby happening at four o’clock. If you love roaring engines, big crashes, and fair food, you will not want to miss the action. Even better, it’s Coats 4 Kids Day—bring a new or gently used coat to donate at any fair entrance, and you’ll get free admission for a child age 13 and under for each coat donated. There’s no limit, so dig through those closets and help keep local kids warm this winter. If you’re looking for music with a grand flair, the Spokane Symphony kicks off its 80th season at Fox Theater at 3 PM with Masterworks 1, a breathtaking program that includes Mahler’s First Symphony, plus rarely heard songs from Alma Mahler. Whether you’re a seasoned symphony goer or curious about something new, it’s sure to be a memorable afternoon. Comedy fans, get ready for laughs tonight at the Spokane Comedy Club as Kevin Farley takes the stage at 7 PM. Known for his offbeat humor and starring roles all over the comedy scene, he’s a great way to cap your weekend with some good cheer. Elsewhere around town, there are plenty of options to keep your Sunday lively. Catch the Obon Festival, a unique celebration of Japanese culture, with music, dancing, traditional foods, and martial arts. Or if you’d rather take in some spirit-lifting music, several churches—including Summit Spokane—are offering both in-person and online Sunday services. And if you want to start planning for next week, look forward to folk music at the District Bar, organ recitals, or the Spokane String Quartet as local concert season fully gets underway. No matter your mood, Spokane has something for everyone today—whether it’s family fun at the fairgrounds, world-class classical music, comedy, or cultural festivals lighting up the city. However you spend your day, stay safe in the weather and enjoy celebrating all that makes Spokane vibrant. This has been Spokane Local Frequency. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.

It is shaping up to be a perfect early fall weekend in Spokane, and there is plenty happening around the Lilac City to keep you busy. First things first, the Spokane County Interstate Fair continues through Sunday at the Fair and Expo Center. Tonight is one of the most anticipated events on the fair calendar, the Demolition Derby, starting at 7 pm. Whether you are a lifelong fan of the smashing spectacle or just looking for an adrenaline-pumping outing, this is a show you do not want to miss. For those seeking a different kind of excitement, Spokane's live entertainment scene is buzzing tonight. Head downtown to the Spokane Comedy Club on West Sprague, where standup comedian Drew Lynch will take the stage for two shows starting at 7 and 9:45. If you are ready to bust a gut, this is your night. Music lovers, check out J Bones Musicland on East Mallon for an evening of local sounds, or catch Overbluff Cellars' RED: A Walkthrough Peek Show, blending art, music, and community in the heart of downtown. If you feel like stretching your legs, Eats on Spokane Street in Post Falls is throwing their Eats End of Summer Party from morning until late tonight—a short drive from Spokane and a worthy stop for anyone craving food, festivities, and a slice of small-town charm. For those thinking ahead to next week, history buffs will have a rare opportunity Monday as the original Washington State Constitution visits Spokane for the very first time. The handwritten document, normally under tight security in Olympia, will be on display at the Central Library downtown between 3 and 5 pm. This is a once-in-a-lifetime chance for Spokane residents to connect with the document that helped define the state we call home. If you go, remember, no food, no drinks, and no flash photography allowed out of respect for the document. The city has also been abuzz this week with important news. Air quality has thankfully improved since last week’s bouts of wildfire smoke, and outdoor activities are back in full swing. The Spokane County Commission made headlines by highlighting efforts to reduce crime, including hiring 50 new deputies and investing in a new drug analyst position to address the opioid crisis. As crime and public safety remain front of mind for many, these changes could have a real impact for families and neighborhoods across the city. In local government, there is talk of changing the night of Spokane City Council meetings from Mondays to Wednesdays to encourage more community involvement. A public survey is underway and could result in new meeting nights as early as next summer, so keep an eye out if you want your voice heard. On the lighter side, tonight is also a great night to stroll through the Wavy Bunch Night Market at the Catalyst Building or sample some of the region’s best wines at the Kitchen Engine’s Sunday tasting events.

Today marks a solemn day of remembrance, as communities across Spokane and the Inland Northwest gather to honor the heroes and victims of September 11. Several tributes are planned, including the Spokane County Interstate Fair’s special Heroes Day, where free admission is offered all day to military members, veterans, first responders, and their families. Just bring your badge or military ID to take part. If you’re on campus, Eastern Washington University’s Memorial Stair Climb gets underway at eight this morning, inviting participants to climb 110 floors in honor of first responders lost on 9/11. Over in Coeur d’Alene, the Kootenai County Sheriff’s Office hosts a memorial at Silver Lake Mall from eleven, open to all as a space to reflect and recognize both the citizens and responders who gave so much. Moving to Spokane’s arts scene, tonight promises cinematic inspiration at the Myrtle Woldson Performing Arts Center, where Mountainfilm on Tour showcases an exhilarating lineup of adventure-packed documentary films curated from the renowned Telluride festival. Proceeds and a live auction will support the Jess Roskelley Foundation, helping Spokane youth embrace climbing, outdoor stewardship, and adventure in memory of one of the city’s own legendary alpinists. If you’re seeking creative sparks outside Spokane’s boundaries, this Saturday brings Emerge’s ninth annual INK Print Rally to downtown Coeur d’Alene. The event celebrates the printmaking community with hands-on block printing, a bustling vendor market, and live surf-punk music from Dazer—a day that mixes artistry, community, and fun. For fairgoers, Spokane County Interstate Fair continues to be a highlight of the week, combining rides, food stalls, local agriculture, and interactive exhibits that have thrilled the region for decades. Expect plenty of family fun and maybe even a few memorable encounters with neighbors and local talent. In neighborhood news, drivers are voicing their frustration about unclear lane markings and risky left turns near South McClellan and West 8th—many hoping city planners will respond with improved signage to ease the daily traffic symphony. Elsewhere, dialogue continues around new drive-thru proposals in local neighborhoods, stirring familiar debates over zoning and community input. On a lighter note, food lovers can rejoice as new restaurants and cultural food events pop up, adding fresh flavor to Spokane’s culinary landscape. The library begins scheduling its fall harvest events, encouraging gardeners to share the bounty and connect with fellow plant enthusiasts. And as the weekend approaches, live music venues like the Knitting Factory are gearing up for seminal performances, so keep an eye out for late-night shows and one-off gigs that always promise big energy.

Today, Spokane wakes up to mild temperatures, with a high expected in the low 80s, so enjoy the late summer sun while it lasts. Our top story this morning: the Spokane County Board of Commissioners is set to appoint a new county prosecutor. They’re interviewing three candidates to fill the seat left vacant by Larry Haskell, who resigned in late July. The choice of Marshall Casey, Steve Garvin, or Preston McCollum will shape the direction of local legal proceedings at least until the next general election, making this a pivotal moment for local justice and the Spokane community. If you are looking for things to do in the coming days, Spokane’s event calendar is absolutely packed. For music fans, mark your calendars for this Friday, September twelfth, when L.A.

Also this weekend, the Dream Beyond Auction kicks off at 4:30 Saturday evening, inviting you for an inspiring night of stories and giving to help transform futures. If sports and friendly competition are more your style, start practicing your tosses, because the Spokane Cornhole Tournament is coming up next week on September eighteenth at the Spokane Tribe Casino. The tournament is raising money for construction education and workforce development, so your competitive spirit will be contributing to a great cause. Looking ahead, the region’s largest Cybersecurity and AI Conference returns next Thursday. The INCH360 event gathers experts, educators, and industry leaders at the Spokane Convention Center for a full day of panels, vendor booths, and networking. Whether you work in tech or just want to get a peek at the future, attendance is free and open to the public. In other news, authorities are monitoring the status of Kevin Coe, the so-called South Hill Rapist, who could be released from McNeil Island’s commitment center. Law enforcement remains on alert, and the community is closely watching for any developments. Meanwhile, after a recent small fire damaged the Avista Stadium concessions building, repair crews are at work ensuring the ballpark will be ready for future events. Local officials have also praised a quick-thinking neighbor who helped protect a homeowner from an attempted title theft, a timely reminder that looking out for each other makes Spokane stronger.

We start today with an update from downtown Spokane, where Spokane Police are investigating a weekend incident that left one minor injured after a stabbing near North Howard Street and West Main. Authorities say a fight among a group of minors broke out late Saturday night, leading to the stabbing. Thankfully, the injuries were not life-threatening, and the investigation is ongoing with no charges issued at this point. Police encourage anyone with information to come forward and help bring clarity and closure to the affected families. In other notable news, there was a fire at Avista Stadium in Spokane Valley. Investigators are working to determine what caused the early morning blaze that destroyed the main concessions building. Firefighters shifted to a defensive approach after part of the metal roof collapsed, and while there were no injuries, many in the community are feeling the loss, especially as the baseball season winds down and many families spend their evenings at the ballpark. Let’s talk about some things you can do today around Spokane. History buffs and vintage lovers, take note—the Spokesman-Review features a deep dive into Spokane’s newspaper collectibles, opening a window into the city’s rich heritage and the stories that give meaning to our present-day community. Over at the Garland Theater, Movie Club members can catch free screenings throughout September, including titles like Reservoir Dogs, The Lorax, and The Incredibles with a sensory-friendly show for families. A great way to revisit classics or introduce them to a new generation. Art fans, the 2025 Spokane Watercolor Society Juried Members Show is running now through September 26th. The exhibit highlights local talent and the diversity of the region’s watercolor art scene, offering inspiration perfect for a creative Monday outing. Meanwhile, adventure seekers can join the "Thrilling Scavenger Hunt" this afternoon, exploring Spokane’s art and architectural landmarks through playful competition. The hunt kicks off at 808 West Spokane Avenue and is a fun way for friends and families to connect while seeing the city from new angles. Sports enthusiasts, don’t miss Spokane BMX practice tonight. Registration runs from 6 to 8 PM, so dust off your bike and feel the rush, whether you’re a seasoned rider or looking to cheer on the local youth. Finally, September is Suicide Prevention Awareness Month. The Washington Department of Veterans Affairs reminds all of us that community involvement can save lives, and they’re providing free toolkits and training to help recognize the signs and offer hope to veterans and their families. If you or someone you know needs help, the Veterans Crisis Line is available by calling 988 and pressing 1. That’s a quick pulse on Spokane for Monday. This has been Spokane Local Frequency.

Whether you’re aiming for the 5K, 10K, or the full 25K, you’ll get sweeping views and some serious bragging rights. This rugged run isn’t just about the finish line—everyone gets a shirt, a medal, and a big dose of Spokane pride, and the event supports the Spokane Athletic Co-Op to keep local youth in the game. Soccer fans can grab their scarves and head downtown as Spokane Velocity FC gears up for a big home match this afternoon at ONE Spokane Stadium. Coming off a stellar inaugural season, Velocity is determined to keep up the pace as they take on Westchester SC at 4 p.m. With the fan energy and the rivalry heating up, this promises to deliver that electric game-day vibe we’re all craving.

The Spokane Watercolor Society’s Juried Members Show continues at the Spokane Art School through September 26th, featuring a vibrant range of works juried by EWU’s own Jenny Hyde.

Comedy takes center stage tonight as Tumua Tuinei brings his stand-up to the Spokane Comedy Club—if you’re looking for a lighter end to your weekend, he’s sure to supply plenty of laughs and local flavor. For those following local sports, Spokane Zephyr FC’s home opener last night was a nail-biter—even though they fell 1-0 to Fort Lauderdale United FC, there were plenty of flashes of promise, especially in the second half. Look for their next matches as the season heats up and this new roster keeps pushing forward. In other news, Spokane continues to make health and resilience headlines. From Roy’s heroic stroke survival story to retrospective looks at Spokane’s role in advancing rural health, the sense of community and perseverance can be felt across the area.

The weekend is here and Spokane is buzzing with activities and events to explore, so let’s dive into what’s happening across the Lilac City today. First up, pack your sunscreen and maybe even a bandana—the Spokane Interstate Fair is in full swing this weekend, though fairgoers should be prepared for some smoky skies drifting in from nearby wildfires. There’s still a full slate of entertainment to enjoy, including the always-thrilling PRCA Rodeo and family-friendly attractions spread across the fairgrounds. Local officials are keeping an eye on air quality, so if you’re sensitive, consider bringing a mask or planning indoor stops between carnival rides and livestock barns. If you’re looking for a creative adventure this Saturday, head downtown for Riverfront Spokane’s Art Drop Day. This unique event invites the community to hide and seek art throughout Riverfront Park. You can pick up an Art Drop slip at the Numerica Skate Ribbon or Visitor Center, drop your own creation, or try your luck at finding a hidden local gem. It’s a delightful way to celebrate local artists and maybe take home something unexpected. Art lovers should also make a stop at the Corbin Art Center, where “Age of Elegance Reimagined” kicks off today. Step inside the historic D.C. Corbin House and tour impeccable rooms staged by local designers and furniture stores, all to support preservation efforts for this city treasure. Admission is just ten dollars and gives you unlimited visits through September 20, so you can keep coming back for inspiration or to support the fundraiser. A brand-new farmers market experience is revving up at the Scale House Market on East 8th Avenue. With local vendors, live music, and food trucks, it’s shaping up to be a Saturday staple for fresh finds and Spokane flavor. The market is open until two this afternoon, offering that perfect first taste of fall’s bounty alongside local crafts and performances. For those wanting to stretch their legs, Riverfront and Manito Parks offer everything from scenic strolls to late-summer picnics. Both locals and visitors are reminded that some road and utility work continues downtown. Crews are hard at work improving water and sewer systems, though ongoing labor strikes have caused some delays, especially to asphalt paving. City officials say they’re making steady progress with concrete projects above ground while negotiations continue, and they thank everyone for their patience during this essential work. On the public safety and policy front, Governor Ferguson is warning that new trade tensions could put local jobs at risk, while regional health officials are monitoring vaccine policies as western governors weigh new approaches.

As the Inland Northwest wakes up today, there’s a fresh energy buzzing across Spokane, with new events, community milestones, and a lineup of fun activities that make our city unique. Let’s start with something exciting for food lovers. This week’s cooking highlights in local papers feature a colorful, gently spiced korma made from summer’s best veggies and a protein-packed edamame, tofu, and miso salad. Whether you’re trying out a new recipe at home or looking for that trending dish at your favorite Spokane eatery, local chefs are making sure to keep your taste buds on their toes. Over in Spokane Valley, a brand-new Dave and Buster’s has opened and it’s making waves beyond the classic arcade games, with an extensive and surprisingly gourmet food menu that’s now a reason all by itself to visit. For live music fans, Zola is the spot to catch that raw Spokane sound tonight. Akifumi Kato’s group will be taking over Wednesdays, hosting what they call a talent “incubator” where established musicians and up-and-comers trade sets, jam, and create a welcoming community vibe. If you want something to tap your toes to during happy hour, Jason Perry brings solo acoustic sounds from five to seven. Gamers and indie music fans, take note—the Stardew Valley concert is happening tonight at the First Interstate Center for the Arts. Whether you fell in love with the game’s peaceful farm life or just want to be swept away by lush orchestral arrangements, the show promises to be a highlight on Spokane’s September calendar. Looking ahead to the weekend, the Knitting Factory is preparing for a full lineup with acts like Terror Reid on Friday and the genre-bending group Earth taking the stage. Mark your calendars for events all month long, because Spokane’s live music venues are keeping the rhythm alive well into fall. In community news, local education has reason to celebrate as Spokane teachers voted not to strike, ensuring a smooth start to the new school year and a bit of stability for families across the city. Meanwhile, the Active4Youth program is getting praise for helping Spokane students stay engaged and energized, combatting the seasonal “summer melt” and helping kids transition back into active learning. If you want to give back or connect with your neighbors, keep an eye out for upcoming benefit nights and jam sessions around town—Spokane’s music community always comes together for a good cause, making our city feel a little smaller and a lot more supportive. That’s a snapshot of what’s happening today and a taste of what’s on Spokane’s horizon. From home cooks to music fans, gamers to families, there’s something for everyone as the city unfolds into September. This has been Spokane Local Frequency.

Spokane is welcoming Labor Day with plenty of excitement. The unofficial end-of-summer festival, Pig Out in the Park, kicks off today at Riverfront Park. Expect five days packed with food, live music, and a true sense of community running daily from 11 AM to 10 PM. From street eats to local bands, this bash brings together everything Spokane loves about the season and has drawn crowds from all corners. If you’ve been waiting for a reason to linger downtown, this is it. If music is your thing, the Spokane Symphony wants to say thank you to the city in style. Tonight, Comstock Park will fill with the sounds of popular classics and Hollywood favorites for their free annual Labor Day concert, conducted by James Lowe. The festivities start early with funk and neo-soul from Jason Garrett Evans and Ruth Engeda at 4:45, followed by the full symphony at 6. It’s more than just a concert: arts organizations will showcase their upcoming seasons, the Zephyr and Velocity soccer teams and local mascots will make appearances, and the Symphony introduces its own mascot, Figaro the fox. There’s even a “petting zoo” for instruments—kids and adults alike can try out a violin or flute with guidance from the musicians. With the mercury pushing toward 97 this evening, organizers are setting up mist tents to keep everyone cool. Plan to arrive early if you want to snag a good spot, as veteran concertgoers line up in the morning to claim their favorite picnic patch in the park. Looking ahead, Riverfront Park is hosting the grand opening of its brand-new chess tables on September 3, blending strategy and socializing in the great outdoors. September 6 brings an art scavenger hunt—drop your masterpiece in the park for someone lucky to find and treasure. As fall approaches, keep an eye out for seasonal activities including $1 carrousel rides and stories for kids, plus unique autumn events that promise something for everyone. On the public service front, Spokane’s own PBS station, KSPS, is grappling with major federal funding cuts after Congress eliminated over a billion dollars for public broadcasting. Nearly a fifth of KSPS’s budget disappeared, prompting emergency fund drives and some tough decisions. Twelve local staff members have faced layoffs or pay reductions, and community supports are being called upon to preserve cherished local programs like Northwest Profiles and Inland Sessions. For residents who value public media, now is the time to rally behind KSPS and help local stories stay alive. Elsewhere in the region, the dry and hot weather has sparked new fires from weekend lightning storms, reinforcing just how important fire safety and vigilance are as the summer winds down.

Labor Day weekend has arrived in Spokane and the city is buzzing with events, community spirit, and just a touch of late summer nostalgia. Riverfront Park is the place to be as Pig Out in the Park kicks off its multi-day festival today, filling the heart of downtown with the irresistible aroma of local eats and the sound of live music from morning until late into the night. With over 50 food booths, free concerts, and plenty of activities for all ages, it’s a true celebration of Spokane’s vibrant summertime culture and a great finale to August. The fun starts at 11 a.m. and runs daily through Monday, so bring your appetite and get ready to groove to some tunes. For sports fans, Luger Field will see some serious action this morning as the undefeated Washington Huskies women’s soccer team meets Gonzaga for the first time in a decade. The match kicks off at 11 a.m., and with both teams on a hot streak, expect a spirited showdown that’s sure to draw a great local crowd. If you’re in the mood for America’s pastime, Avista Stadium has the Spokane Indians hosting a fundraiser night, plus “Greenacres Nights” for families to connect over classic ballpark moments as the summer season winds down. Music lovers have options beyond Pig Out—tonight, head up to Arbor Crest Winery for their Summer Concert Series, where the Rhythm Dawgs will bring dance music and vineyard views to cap off your Sunday. Meanwhile, indie rock fans can check out Knoll at The Big Dipper. And if you’re a car enthusiast, the Dyno Day Car Meet and open house on North Ash Street offers a chance to mingle with fellow gearheads. For a cultural twist, don’t miss local art exhibits like Lauren Urlacher’s hyper-realistic dahlia paintings at the Liberty Gallery, and if you’re at Riverfront Park later, Hasenpfeffer will be performing at the Clock Tower Stage. Spokane’s creative scene is alive and well, with opportunities everywhere to take in some art or catch live performances around the city. On the news front, the region is talking about emergency heart care success stories at local hospitals, the role of hydropower in keeping our energy affordable, and a new global nonprofit founded by the Salish School of Spokane to promote Indigenous language revival, connecting our community to international conversations on cultural preservation. Also making headlines is the story of local families in Priest Lake, Idaho, facing change as state land auctions reshape longstanding community identities. For those venturing outside the city, hunters in North Idaho are getting ready for what biologists say looks like a promising big game season, especially for elk and whitetail deer. And if you’re traveling along I-90, keep in mind the Schrag Safety Rest Area is currently closed due to a water issue. That wraps up your Sunday in Spokane.

Spokane is bustling with summertime energy as Labor Day weekend gets underway. Our biggest headline this week is the Spokane City Council’s passage of a safe and welcome ordinance concerning immigration agent access at events on city property. The ordinance aims to block warrantless entry by federal immigration authorities at private, ticketed, or otherwise restricted events. While it still awaits the mayor’s final signature, city leaders stress its impact is narrowly tailored and doesn’t apply to open public festivals. Immigration attorney Hector Quiroga points out it mostly ensures proper procedures are followed but expects legal challenges may be on the horizon as the city navigates what powers local authorities actually have. On the weather side, it continues to be hot and dry, and the Spokane Riverkeeper is urging everyone to conserve water as parts of the Spokane River are showing critically low flows. Water reductions at Post Falls Dam are keeping levels at the bare minimum, so if you’re heading out for holiday river fun, expect to see more shoreline than usual—remember, this is about balancing recreation with environmental health. For local happenings, there’s no shortage of ways to celebrate. The legendary Pig Out in the Park is in full swing at Riverfront Park now through Monday. This free, all-ages food and music festival is marking its 44th year and features hundreds of menu items alongside nonstop live music. Whether you’re craving something sweet, spicy, or savory, it’s the perfect way to soak up Spokane’s festival spirit. If you’re a music lover, Liberty Lake is the place to be this evening for the Lud Kramer Memorial Concert. The Spokane Symphony is putting on a free outdoor show with popular classics and Broadway favorites, starting with opening acts at 4:45 and the symphony at 6. Bring a blanket, fill up on those last summer rays, and let the music do the rest. Sports fans have their own rivalry to enjoy tonight. Over in Pullman, the Cougars and Vandals face off at 7 o’clock for the Battle of the Palouse, opening the college football season with bragging rights on the line. Both teams are under new head coaches and looking to make a statement. Looking for nighttime fun? There’s a throwback 2000s dance party in town and blockbuster action at the Garland Theater with The Dark Knight Rises screening at 7:30 for just five bucks. Some travel heads-up: U.S. 195 remains blocked south of Colfax following a deadly crash last night. Detours are still in place, so if your plans take you in that direction, allow for extra time and check for updates before you go. On the labor front, Spokane is still in the throes of a construction strike. Negotiations are ongoing with the next round set for September 3. Until then, patience is needed on local projects and roadwork.

Downtown Spokane is buzzing today as Pig Out in the Park kicks off its 44th year at Riverfront Park, inviting everyone to feast, dance, and soak in the summer vibe. Until September 1, you can wander through 65 food booths — think everything from smoky barbecue to sweet huckleberry treats — and choose from over 250 menu items. The air will be filled with music, too, as 100 free concerts unfold on four stages, offering everything from local hip-hop to classic rock throwbacks. Later today, you might catch acoustic folk by Micah Clay Lübben or have your nostalgia lit up by Tone Loc hitting the stage with his ‘80s anthem. Families can relax in the four adult beverage gardens or browse local wares at the 45 public market booths, making the festival a celebration for all ages. Another meaningful stop while you’re out is the Travelling Vietnam Wall, on display at Dwight Merkel Sports Complex through Sunday. This moving, three-quarter scale replica of the national Vietnam Veterans Memorial spans hundreds of communities, but for the next few days, Spokane is its home. Over 58,000 names are engraved, each marking a life lost in service. Veterans and families are already visiting to honor loved ones and share stories of sacrifice and resilience, making this a heartfelt opportunity for remembrance and education. Community spirit takes on new meaning with the near-completion of the Crosswalk Youth Shelter in Chief Garry Park. Set for a dedication ceremony today, this new three-story facility doubles the space for youth and young adults experiencing homelessness and incorporates expanded support services, education space, and medical outreach. It symbolizes eight years of planning and remarkable collaboration, with youth input shaping a space meant to nurture hope and safety for some of Spokane’s most vulnerable. For families looking for music and a sense of tradition, mark your calendars for the Spokane Symphony’s Labor Day free concerts — Saturday at Liberty Lake Pavilion Park and Monday at Comstock Park, both starting at 6 p.m. Bring the picnic blankets early for R&B and soul performances by Jason Garrett Evans and Ruth Engeda, followed by symphonic favorites with some surprise collaborations. Arts organizations will be there offering previews, workshops, and mascots ready for photos. It’s a festive showcase of the region’s creative spirit and an ideal way to wrap up your summer weekend. In development news, keep an eye on Kendall Yards, where a fresh apartment project is making waves as Spokane’s housing market continues to evolve. Meanwhile, the Spokane Tribe recently inked a sponsorship deal with the Spokane Convention Center, bringing a renewed sense of community partnership to the heart of the city.

For families looking for music and a sense of tradition, mark your calendars for the Spokane Symphony’s Labor Day free concerts — Saturday at Liberty Lake Pavilion Park and Monday at Comstock Park, both starting at 6 p.m. Bring the picnic blankets early for R&B and soul performances by Jason Garrett Evans and Ruth Engeda, followed by symphonic favorites with some surprise collaborations.

Grab your coffee and let’s dive into all the latest from Spokane. A major story this morning—Spokane’s Riverkeeper is sounding the alarm about low water levels on the Spokane River. Some sections are running dry, which could mean tough news for fish, recreation, and everyone who loves riverside walks. So if you’re heading down to the river today, expect some areas to be off-limits, and remember to do your part conserving water. In city government news, a landmark decision from the Spokane City Council last night. The new Safe and Welcome in Spokane ordinance is now in effect, making it clear that immigration enforcement can’t enter community events on city property without a warrant. Supporters say this move is meant to help make immigrants and refugees feel safer at festivals, parades, and block parties. Special event organizers can even request a “nonpublic” designation for their gathering. Plus, any incidents with unauthorized agents now get logged by Spokane Police, providing some extra accountability. Also passed was the Public Dollars for Public Benefit ordinance, meaning city contracts over five million dollars must hire a bigger share of Spokane workers. Proponents are hoping this keeps local dollars working for Spokanites and boosts job stability, but there’s healthy debate with contractors saying it might drive up costs and shrink competitive bidding. If you’re on the roads, be prepared for lane closures around downtown as the city pushes ahead with late summer construction projects. And just a reminder, garbage and recycling pickups are running a day late this week, so keep those bins out one day longer than usual. A quick safety note after a serious house fire on South Sherman Street early this week. Fire officials traced the cause to an air conditioner plugged into a power strip via extension cord, which overheated. One resident remains hospitalized in critical condition, and two families are displaced. Spokane Fire wants everyone to know: plug things like air conditioners and space heaters directly into wall outlets. Looking for things to do? Spokane is serving up live music tonight—head to Zola on Main Avenue for the Zola All Star Jam or catch Akifumi Kato performing. The Knitting Factory has its popular Reading 101 Night Club event, and if you’re a theater buff, the Civic Theatre is showing Puffs at 7 p.m., a hilarious twist on wizarding world adventures. Artists and art lovers can check out Stan Miller’s watercolor demonstration at Spokane Art Supply this morning and the summer floral exhibit “Dahlia Days” at Liberty Gallery, celebrating the city’s best blooms. Looking ahead to the weekend, the iconic Pig Out in the Park food and music bash returns to Riverfront Park starting on Saturday—a five-day festival of live tunes and glorious eats, perfect for closing out summer.

Looks like we're kicking off the last week of August with a busy and eventful Monday in Spokane. If you’re heading downtown, be aware that West Maxwell Avenue is closed today from North Walnut to Ash, which is causing delays and affecting nearby businesses, so it might be worth giving yourself extra time or looking for alternate routes. Also, heads up for drivers: parking fees and enforcement hours have changed in Spokane County, so double-check those meters before leaving your car. For families getting ready for back-to-school season, there’s a fantastic opportunity in Spokane Valley today. The Man Shop is giving complimentary haircuts to students aged five to eighteen. It’s running through lunch, so stop by if your child needs a trim before classes start. And if you’re in Post Falls tomorrow, they’ll bring the scissors there as well. This week brings a load of activities for all ages. Over at Riverfront Park, Pig Out in the Park returns all week with food galore and live music, a true Spokane summer tradition and a great way to sample something new. If you’re in the mood to unwind outdoors, tonight’s Movies at the Pavilion kicks off at 8:30, with families gathering under the stars for a movie night—bring your blankets, because the evenings are starting to cool off just a touch as September nears. For those looking for something more active, join Strengthen and Tone at Riverfront at 6 p.m. for a low-impact, high-energy workout, or explore some acro yoga with friends later in the evening. Meanwhile, the Garland Theater is hosting a special matinee showing of The Iron Giant at 2 p.m. If you’re up for a double feature, stick around for Puss in Boots, also playing today. There’s also Open Mic Night at the Spokane Comedy Club, which promises a mix of new talent and crowd favorites starting at 7—perfect if you could use a laugh and maybe even have a joke or two yourself. Looking for something for the little ones? Spokane County Library District has Play and Learn Storytime events running through the week at various branches, encouraging kids to read, sing, and play—check your local schedule for times and locations. And in the news, today marks another chapter in Spokane’s story as local author and educator releases a book for couples looking to plan affordable dates under five dollars and five miles. In historical notes, this day in history forty years ago saw President Gerald Ford discuss a new Kootenai River dam and the ongoing balance between environmental concerns and technological progress—a topic still resonant today. Looking ahead at the weather, forecasts show mild temperatures and mostly clear skies, making all of these outdoor activities even more appealing. Whether you’re commuting, relaxing at the park, or checking out a local show or movie, Spokane is vibrant with things to do. This has been Spokane Local Frequency.

The sun is shining on Spokane this morning, and we are heading for a sizzling high of 98 degrees today. If you’re planning to spend some time outdoors, remember to stay hydrated and take breaks in the shade. To help beat the heat, cooling centers including your local libraries are open and welcoming anyone looking for a bit of relief. Tonight we’ll drop down to a mild 63 degrees, perfect for an evening stroll, but do keep an eye on friends and neighbors who might need an extra hand managing these higher temperatures. Let’s talk about what’s happening in and around Spokane today. If you’re seeking some inspiration, the Art and Glass Festival continues at Arbor Crest Wine Cellars in Spokane Valley. Over 60 artists and vendors are set up until 5 p.m. with everything from metalwork and photography to handcrafted jewelry. As you browse, you’ll also catch live music as part of Arbor Crest’s Outdoor Summer Concert Series. It’s free to attend, and a beautiful way to support local artists. For fans of classic rides and community fun, Spokane Valley just hosted its first-ever Cops and Kids Car Show at the new Balfour Park expansion. If you missed yesterday’s festivities, there’s still plenty to enjoy in the park today, with space for a picnic or a casual kickback with friends. Yesterday’s show brought out police canines, drones, SWAT vehicles, and plenty of opportunities for kids to win bikes and gear up for the back-to-school season, all thanks to the Spokane County Sheriff’s Office and community partners. There’s more art to see downtown, where the Liberty Gallery keeps celebrating dahlia season with local artist Lauren Urlacher’s hyper-realistic floral paintings. For foodies and garlic-lovers, the annual Garlic Faire in North Spokane continues this weekend, featuring live music from Murphy’s Legacy, unique crafts, and—of course—all things garlic. Bring a picnic or try the event’s signature garlicky fare. Looking for evening plans? Comedy is in the spotlight downtown. Shelly Belly, also known as Michelle Rider, brings laughs and sharp wit to the Spokane Comedy Club tonight at 7, but tickets are running low. Or, for something more musical, Five for Fighting and Vertical Horizon hit the stage at the Knitting Factory Concert House at 8 p.m.—a chance to catch chart-topping hits live. In community news, Spokane’s annual Bite2Go fundraiser just wrapped up, raising vital funds to provide weekend meals for students facing food insecurity. Organizers report a need to support nearly fifteen thousand children this coming school year, and the effort continues, so there’s still time to help or contribute.

Kicking off your weekend in the Inland Northwest, Spokane is buzzing with both news and things to do, so let us get right into it. Starting downtown, city headlines have been focused on the aftermath of June’s anti-IE protests. The police ombuds office is moving forward with an independent investigation into the response, after a state of emergency and curfews followed those intense nights. Dozens of complaints have now been filed, so if you have input, the city is encouraging you to reach out directly. Meanwhile, the city continues complex negotiations with Schreck, the regional fire authority, as Spokane must be ready to manage its own fire dispatch starting January first. The transition is a big lift for local services, with leaders seeking a safe and smooth handoff that could impact emergency response times for residents. On a brighter note, the city’s skyline will soon look a bit different, thanks to Spokane removing building height limits to spur new downtown housing projects. This move has fast-tracked new developments, promising not just fresh architecture but hopefully more affordable apartment options close to the city core. Local business owners are hopeful that a livelier downtown, bustling day and night, will benefit everyone and help chip away at Spokane’s housing crunch, even as it sparks new conversations about balancing the city’s unique vibe with growth. Public safety also made headlines yesterday after Spokane Police successfully arrested a suspect linked to a string of suspicious downtown fires. The quick action reassured several businesses rattled by recent incidents. Road warriors, watch out for ongoing construction and temporary closures related to pedestrian and bicycle upgrades downtown. Be prepared for a few extra detours as crews work to improve signals and crosswalk safety. Now for the fun stuff. The city shakes off the news this evening when the Great Outdoors Comedy Festival rolls into One Spokane Stadium. If you want to catch comedian Bert Kreischer and a legendary festival energy, tickets are still available—just keep in mind they’re going fast. For more laughs, check out William Montgomery at the Spokane Comedy Club tonight; he’s performing two sets, so whether you’re an early bird or a night owl, there’s a show with your name on it. If you like your entertainment with a retro twist, the Knitting Factory hosts Emo Nite, an all-out throwback dance party for the over-18 crowd. Get active in Riverfront Park this morning with Barre3’s free outdoor fitness class. It is a great way to start the day strong and soak up some sunshine in the heart of the city. And while the mouthwatering Pig Out in the Park food and music festival does not begin until next Thursday, folks are already buzzing with plans to feast and groove as summer winds down.

Let’s kick things off with one of the biggest local headlines this week. Spokane County Library District staff, including both rank-and-file employees and supervisors, have just filed to form a union. If recognized, this would give about 140 staffers a new collective voice on issues like scheduling and workplace transparency. The push reflects growing calls for staff input and fair wages, aiming to build a stronger sense of community within the libraries that so many Spokane families rely on. In other significant news, the Spokane City Council just approved 7.5 million dollars in funding for nine new and ongoing affordable housing projects across the city. The money will support a mix of new builds and renovations, adding more than 90 new homes, and preserving or improving nearly 100 more units for lower-income residents. Mayor Lisa Brown described this move as a direct investment in community stability and opportunity, making it easier for more Spokane families to stay rooted right here. On the safety beat, Spokane Fire Department crews responded last night to a commercial structure fire near North Madelia Street and East Riverside Avenue. Quick work from firefighters helped control the blaze and no injuries were reported, but the incident was a sharp reminder of the risks first responders regularly tackle. Turning to things to do, this is a wonderful weekend for live music and unique events. The Knitting Factory in downtown Spokane has a great lineup through the week, and if you’re up for a laugh, comedian William Montgomery takes the stage at the Spokane Comedy Club Friday night—just be sure you’re 21 or older for that one. August is Washington Wine Month, and Fête downtown is throwing a pop-up wine tasting this Saturday from noon to four, featuring pours from ten top local wineries alongside a generous grazing table, plus prizes and swag for attendees. And if you’re searching for family-friendly fun, the Millwood Daze festival celebrates on Saturday with a car show, street fair, 5K run, pancake breakfast, and a parade—kids and pets included. Over at Beck’s Harvest House, Peach Party runs all day with tasty treats and county fair vibes, while in Shadle Park, you can drop in for a free session of authentic Indian yoga on Sunday afternoon. If you’re in the mood for something different, check out the Cultural Connections Block Party at the Afghani Grocery on North Monroe—think multicultural foods, crafts, and the chance to help paint a mural and meet your neighbors. Music lovers should note the Mutual Aid Benefit Concert this weekend, too, supporting vital community resources.

Today begins with an important moment for our Spokane community. The memorial service for Sergeant Kenneth Salas, who lost his life in the line of duty last week, will be held at the Spokane Convention Center at 1 p.m. The public is invited to honor his memory, but be aware that seating will be limited. In preparation for the service, several major road closures will impact downtown starting around 9 this morning, especially near Division, Monroe, and Spokane Falls Boulevard. If you’re headed through these areas, plan extra time for detours and be patient as our city pauses to pay tribute to a local hero. The Washington State Patrol continues to investigate the tragic incident, and flags across Spokane will fly at half-staff today in Sergeant Salas’s memory. Looking to get involved in the community or try something new? There’s no shortage of activities around Spokane today and in the coming days. If you’re looking to soak up the last of summer’s vibes with some live music, Zola Restaurant and Music Bar downtown has a packed evening. Tonight, catch Jacob Maxwell performing from five to seven, with more local acts throughout the week, plus open mic nights and a weekly musical meet-up where you might spot Spokane’s up-and-coming talent. For a mid-week thrill, tonight is the birthday bash at Spokane Tribe Casino. If you’re celebrating in August or just want to try your luck, the casino is giving away up to a thousand dollars in cash prizes every fifteen minutes from five to eight. That could add some extra excitement to your Wednesday evening. If you’re planning ahead, this weekend’s Millwood Daze in Spokane Valley promises a lively festival atmosphere, and over in Rathdrum, the High Country Cider Fest is ready to showcase regional brews and ciders on Saturday. The North Idaho State Fair is also continuing through the weekend, just a short drive from Spokane—ideal for family fun, food, and classic fair games. The arts are alive and well this week too, with Art Fest ongoing in Post Falls through Saturday. And for foodies, today’s local news highlights the continued national success of No-Li Brewhouse, whose squash series imperials just swept major honors at the World Beer Awards in England. If all this talk of local produce gets you hungry, The Spokesman-Review has fresh suggestions for making the most of zucchini season without getting overwhelmed by your garden haul.

Start your day with a look at the skies—smoke continues drifting over Spokane from wildfires burning west of the Cascade Mountains. The haze settled over Lake Coeur d'Alene yesterday and is expected to linger today, prompting the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality to peg air quality in the orange for much of our area and issue a burn ban until things improve. Sensitive groups should limit time outdoors, and everyone is encouraged to keep an eye on the evolving smoke forecast. Speaking of fires, a Level 3 evacuation notice remains in effect for those living between Farwell Road and the Spokane River, near Reardan. The Crescent Road Fire grew quickly, moving north past Whispering Pines and toward Devils Gap and Long Lake Road, keeping first responders on high alert. As always, have an emergency kit ready and heed local authorities if you live near these areas. On the local policy front, Spokane is seeing significant steps taken on public spending and community initiatives. County residents just approved enhanced funding for aquifer protection—vital for our drinking water—as well as support for local fire districts and police. Several political races narrowed in the recent primary, signaling a busy fall election season ahead. An eye-catching trend for Spokane and Kootenai counties: bankruptcy filings are ticking upward. New numbers show over 700 filings in Spokane County in the past year, up from just under 500 two years ago. Local experts point to rising housing costs, spiking insurance rates after wildfires, and lingering pandemic-era debt as drivers. Many homeowners are now filing for bankruptcy to save their homes, highlighting the lasting impact high interest rates and housing pressures have on working families. But there are brighter spots to highlight. One of Spokane’s buzziest events kicks off tonight—Rainbow Kitten Surprise plays the Spokane Pavilion, promising an energetic show for indie rock fans. Tickets are still available, and this is always a crowd-pleaser for concertgoers. For those looking for family fun and something fresh this weekend, the Garland Pride celebration lights up the district with vendors, drag shows, live music, and food—all free to attend. Or head downtown Saturday for “Unity in the Community,” the region’s largest multicultural festival, which sets up in Riverfront Park with a cultural village, food from around the world, and entertainment. Car lovers, don’t miss the Fourth Annual LocalMotion Car Show in Spokane Valley, boasting everything from classic rat rods to tricked-out imports. You can also catch the Red Turf Takeover at One Spokane Stadium this evening—doors open at five, with a local sports scrimmage and autograph session starting at six. If you’re in the mood for tradition with a twist, the Spokane Lawn Bowling Club invites newcomers to try out the sport and connect with this quirky piece of local culture.

A warm and sunny day is starting here in Spokane, with a high near 97 degrees and clear skies on tap. But before you plan your day, be aware that the National Weather Service has issued a Red Flag Warning for the Spokane area, from noon to 9 p.m. today. Gusty winds up to thirty five miles per hour and low humidity mean a heightened risk for rapid fire spread, so if you’re headed outdoors, be extra cautious and avoid any activities that could spark a flame. In today’s headlines, a major construction shake-up is making waves across Spokane. The International Union of Operating Engineers Local 302 has officially gone on strike, putting several projects in limbo, including progress on the North Spokane Corridor, the Spokane River crossing, and nearby paving work. If the strike continues into next week, more local roadworks—like ongoing improvements to Country Homes Boulevard and the North Hatch Road—may stall, so commuters should keep an eye on traffic updates and plan alternate routes if possible. Public safety is also top of mind this morning. Spokane Police are investigating following a search warrant on North Freya last week that uncovered over two hundred fifty thousand dollars in cash, more than sixty guns, explosives including a foreign hand grenade, as well as significant amounts of fentanyl and methamphetamine. Officials say criminal charges are expected, and they’re asking anyone with information regarding several recent overnight fires in Spokane Valley to contact Crime Check. On a much lighter note for families, today marks the annual Backpacks for Kids event at the Salvation Army on East Nora Avenue, running until 4 p.m. K through 12 students can get a free backpack with school supplies, along with free haircuts, immunizations, and a chance to connect with more than forty community resource vendors. Free hotdogs will be served, and parents just need to bring photo ID and proof of their child’s residence. Looking for things to do as the weekend approaches? You’ve got plenty of options. The Knitting Factory is hosting Tropidelic and Shwayze with a live show tonight for music lovers wanting to catch some summer vibes. Or, mark your calendar for Friday’s Puppy Party on the credit union lawn—a tail-wagging way to beat the August heat. On Saturday, Garland Pride brings rainbow fun to the historic neighborhood, complete with art, dancing, and a Wizard of Oz twist. And next week, the Dinner Detective brings laughs and mystery to Spokane with its interactive murder mystery dinner, while the annual Cops and Kids Car Show promises family fun in Spokane Valley. Nature lovers, tonight is also the perfect time to watch the Perseids meteor shower, visible in the clear eastern Washington skies. That’s your Wednesday Spokane Local Frequency.

We’re starting with a heads-up on the heat. A Heat Advisory is in effect from noon today through 8 p.m. Tuesday, with highs ranging from the mid-90s to near 103 around parts of the Inland Northwest. Spokane is on track for about 94 degrees after a clear, warm start, so plan extra water, shade, and check on neighbors who may not have cooling. Cooling off late tonight won’t be dramatic, with lows near 60. If you’re outdoors or working in the sun, pace yourself and take breaks in air conditioning when possible[1]. A difficult community note this morning: the Spokane County Sheriff’s Office is mourning Sergeant Kenneth Salas, 59, who was killed in the line of duty Saturday morning while assisting with a large traffic hazard on eastbound I-90 near the Four Lakes exit. Investigators say he was struck by a motorcycle while helping a truck remove hay from the roadway. Salas served Spokane County for 34 years in multiple roles and also served more than 20 years with the Washington Air National Guard. The Washington State Patrol is investigating[5][7]. Expect intermittent traffic impacts near the Four Lakes area as that work continues, and give first responders plenty of space. On the roads this morning, regional crews are still dealing with weekend crash backlogs and the heat can stress vehicles, so keep an eye on coolant levels and tires. Kootenai County commuters should note Highway 41 experienced a fatal crash earlier; check conditions if you’re heading that way and be prepared for residual delays[1]. Looking for ways to spend your Monday while beating the heat? Spokane BMX has a local race on the calendar this evening, a fun, fast option if you’re spectating with water and sun protection; check the track’s schedule for final start times and any heat-related changes[6]. Families can duck into air conditioning for bookstore story times or author events; Northtown Mall’s Barnes & Noble lists weekly programming and a virtual midday mystery author chat today that you can stream from home[8]. If you’re mapping out the week, Spokane Valley’s CenterPlace keeps a running community calendar of events and rentals, a good hub for indoor gatherings during the heat spell[4]. And for late-August planners, Spokane’s event scene stays active with scavenger hunts, wine dinners, and outdoor games around Logan and Riverside later this month—bookings are open now if you want to lock in spots before they fill up[2]. For broader Spokane headlines and sports, keep an eye on the Spokesman-Review’s Northwest front page throughout the day for updates as stories develop[9]. This has been Spokane Local Frequency.

Starting with the big news this weekend, Spokane is coming together in the wake of a tragic accident on I-90 near Four Lakes. A Spokane County Sheriff’s sergeant was killed and a motorcyclist critically injured after a hay bale fell from a truck, setting off a chain reaction crash. Eastbound lanes remain blocked as investigators work on the scene, and a detour is in place. The sheriff’s office will hold a press conference later today with more details, as the community pays tribute to the fallen deputy and hopes for the motorcyclist’s recovery. In lighter news, the weather is bringing the heat, literally. A heat advisory kicks in tomorrow and will last through Tuesday, with highs soaring into the upper nineties and even topping 100 degrees in some areas. Take extra care out there, especially if you’re heading outdoors, and check on loved ones who may not have air conditioning. If you’re looking to beat the heat this Sunday, there’s no shortage of cool happenings around town. The Huckleberry Festival wraps up today, featuring craft brews, live music, and a legendary BBQ on the deck. Head over for local favorites and get a taste of the best huckleberry-inspired treats Spokane has to offer.

Remember to plan ahead, stay hydrated, and check in on neighbors who may need extra care as the heat ramps up. Turning to news making an impact overnight, Spokane police are investigating a deadly stabbing that occurred downtown near Riverfront Park, resulting in one person dead and another injured. Two bridges were closed during the response, and the suspect was detained after an hours-long standoff. The investigation continues, and downtown traffic has resumed as normal this morning. In other developments, Providence has announced further clinic closures in the Inland Northwest, which is raising concerns around access to healthcare in some neighborhood communities. City leaders say discussions are underway to address potential gaps and improve local healthcare delivery. For local entertainment and activities, today is brimming with options for every interest.

After a cool start this morning at 67 degrees, Spokane is heading for an afternoon in the mid-80s with clear skies expected, so it’s a perfect Saturday to get out and enjoy our city. Looking ahead, a heat advisory is on the way for Monday and Tuesday, with temperatures projected to climb into the low 90s. Remember to plan ahead, stay hydrated, and check in on neighbors who may need extra care as the heat ramps up. Turning to news making an impact overnight, Spokane police are investigating a deadly stabbing that occurred downtown near Riverfront Park, resulting in one person dead and another injured. Two bridges were closed during the response, and the suspect was detained after an hours-long standoff. The investigation continues, and downtown traffic has resumed as normal this morning. In other developments, Providence has announced further clinic closures in the Inland Northwest, which is raising concerns around access to healthcare in some neighborhood communities. City leaders say discussions are underway to address potential gaps and improve local healthcare delivery. For local entertainment and activities, today is brimming with options for every interest. If you’re near downtown between 11 and 1, don’t miss the Summer Splash Party—a free, family-friendly block party perfect for the kids to cool off and enjoy outdoor fun. For those wanting to get out on the water, the Spokane Riverkeeper is hosting the annual River Rendezvous BYO-Boat Float starting at 11:30 at Water Street. Bring your own kayak, raft, or paddleboard for a 3.5 mile float to TJ Meenach Park. Along the way, you’ll hear stories about the river ecosystem and Spokane’s history. Make sure to sign the waiver in advance, and remember this is a self-guided event for confident paddlers. Educators take note—Art Salvage is holding their popular Educators’ Day from 11 to 2, offering free materials and creative inspiration for classroom teachers and homeschooling families. It’s a fantastic chance to stock up just in time for the new school year. If you’re in the mood for music and local vibes, head over to Brick West Brewing for Live and Unplugged from 6 to 9 tonight, featuring performances by Sex with Seneca, Jumbotron, and Enlightenment Now. All ages are welcome, so bring friends or family to soak in the summer evening with great tunes. For families seeking adventure, Spokane Valley’s pools are offering free swims today courtesy of Numerica Credit Union. Cool off at Park Road, Terrace View, or Valley Mission Pool during open swim sessions. And here’s some big news for the game-lovers and foodies out there: Spokane welcomes the grand opening of Dave & Buster’s this weekend. Expect plenty of games, sports on the big screen, and a chance to try signature snacks as this new entertainment destination opens its doors.

First, a safety update as local law enforcement continues investigating two suspicious fires at People’s Park. The Spokane Fire Department responded to brush fires along the Centennial Trail in the past 48 hours, and investigators now believe these incidents were not accidental. Witnesses have described a possible person of interest in the area, but no arrest has been made yet. The community is on alert, and officials urge anyone with information to contact authorities. Over in Grant County, though outside Spokane, officials have issued a level two evacuation notice for Electric City due to an active wildfire, so anyone with friends or family in that area should keep tabs on the latest alerts. On the city front, Spokane’s mayor has just signed a new law focused on improving street safety. Expect changes and updates that will make roads more walkable and bike-friendly as these improvements roll out this season. Alongside safer routes, drivers should watch out for construction as roadwork begins on North Foothills Drive between Hamilton and Hogan. Lane reductions will be in effect starting today through August 20th, so budget a little extra drive time. Turning to health and community resources, Spokane Regional Health District has expanded its opioid treatment hours, making support a bit more accessible for those in need. Plus, new resource cards just launched to help immigrants connect with local services, a move community leaders hope will make Spokane more welcoming and informed for everyone. Now if you’re looking for something fun this evening, the Sprague Union District is hosting Twilight Thursdays from 5 to 8 PM, part of a brand-new summer series that brings music, food, and late shopping to the district. Or, set sail on Lake Coeur d’Alene with Bands on Boats starting at 7 tonight, where local favorite Royale brings pop, rock, and dance hits as the sun sets over the water. Families and kids have options too—Edgecliff Park has a free community event this morning in the valley, and don’t forget, city pools are still offering free swims courtesy of a community sponsor, perfect for beating today’s light showers before the heat returns for the weekend. Live music is also on tap this weekend: G. Love & Special Sauce hit the District Bar on Saturday, offering their signature blend of Philly soul and hip-hop blues, and country-folk artist Sam Barber is scheduled for the Pavilion soon after dropping his newest album. Finally, if the arts are your thing, check out “Peter and the Starcatcher” at Spokane Civic Theatre for a fresh take on the Peter Pan story, or catch some laughs this weekend as comedian T.J. Miller brings his new show into town. This has been Spokane Local Frequency. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.

We kick off this sunny morning with the energy of civic engagement as Spokane residents wake up to the results of Tuesday’s primaries. Some familiar names will be returning for a key November showdown, with city council and school board races featuring both incumbents and new challengers aiming to shape Spokane’s future priorities. On the policy front, local voters have approved a new aquifer protection tax and a sales tax increase for policing in Spokane Valley, signaling the community’s focus on safety and sustainability. In environmental news, you might notice bright red around the river: Spokane County is using red dye to track wastewater flows into the Spokane River as part of ongoing efforts to monitor and protect local waterways. In sports, the world comes to Spokane this week with the kickoff of the ITTF World Para Circuit at The Podium downtown. Watch top para table tennis talent from around the globe compete through next week, bringing excitement and inspiration to the Inland Northwest. For the college basketball faithful, mark your calendars — Gonzaga’s men’s team has just announced a high-profile clash with Oklahoma coming to Spokane Arena in November, with ticket info dropping later this month. It’s a big nod to the arena’s role in our city’s sports history and ongoing tradition of sellout crowds. On the arts and entertainment scene, Browne’s Addition is buzzing with the grand opening of Jewel of the North, a brand new neighborhood gastropub bringing creative fare and local brews to the historic district. If you’re feeling artistic, swing by the Spokane Art School, where Pet Portraits with Personality continues through the end of the week and Tuesday’s acrylic painting and portrait drawing classes are a great way to fuel your creative spark. Curious foodies can sign up for tonight’s Sweet and Savory Summer Galettes class at The Kitchen Engine or learn the art of chili rellenos at lunchtime. Families can enjoy storytime at Terrace View Park or catch a matinee of The Secret Garden over in Moscow. For something a bit more adventurous, the Conspiracy Scavenger Hunt and the Spokane Murder Mystery experience dot today’s event calendar, offering unique, interactive ways to explore the city with friends. If you’re looking for evening activities, check out the LED Flow Jam at Patera Temperance Lounge for movement and music in a chill, air-conditioned space, or dive into the Beatles vs Stones showdown at the Fox Theater.

This week kicks off with Summer Safety Week in downtown Spokane, where the Downtown Spokane Partnership is spotlighting the work of its Ambassadors. These dedicated folks responded to thousands of calls last year, and this year they’ve already logged nearly 7,000 safety contacts. All week long, you can catch safety tips on their socials, but tomorrow is the big National Night Out Against Crime celebration on Wall Street from 4 to 7 p.m. It’s free and family-friendly, with games, treats, a meet-and-greet with police and park rangers, plus a few helmet giveaways and a blood drive, all in the name of bringing the community together. If you’re a sports fan, Spokane is about to become the center of the table tennis universe as players from around the world descend on the city for the WTT Feeder tournaments and ITTF Para events. From August 5th through the 13th, you’ll be able to catch incredible international action with top athletes competing for prize money and world ranking points. This is a rare chance to see some of the best in the game—keep an eye on local venues for updates and daily highlights. On the cultural side, music lovers might have caught David Raitt and the Baja Boogie Band closing out Arbor Crest’s Summer Concert Series last night, but don’t worry, their calendar is packed with more magical evenings ahead. Bring your picnic, grab a tasting flight, and enjoy live tunes with a view—watch social channels for any last-minute weather changes or ticket info. For those involved in Spokane’s vibrant civic scene, today brings volunteer appreciation events, offering a chance to connect and celebrate community impact. And on the public health front, Spokane County is making news by launching an $11.5 million expansion of its regional stabilization center, funded in part by opioid settlement dollars. In the coming years, this new crisis relief facility will mean more comprehensive, long-term support for those struggling with behavioral health and addiction in our region. Elsewhere, it’s a bustling week at Spokane County Library District branches, with produce swaps, book chats, and family activities. Plus, local politics are heating up as Spokane Valley gears up for the first pass of election ballot processing ahead of tomorrow’s primary. Finally, for a little history, today marks the anniversary of the 'Quiet ever' rock concert at the convention center, a throwback showing Spokane knows how to rock out respectfully.

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 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.

Speaking of back to school, the Salvation Army’s Burst a Bus campaign is happening today, collecting new school supplies at the Wellesley Walmart and both Fred Meyer locations on Division and Sprague.

The city is also inviting public input as it shapes its next phase of climate policies; you can add your voice by taking the 10-minute survey available online through the end of the month. On the public safety front, investigators are still looking into the cause of this week’s wildfire, which has charred over 8,000 acres. The good news: crews now have it 90 percent contained and will soon hand over command to local agencies, a positive step for nearby communities.

Our top story today is a bittersweet turning point for local nonprofits, as United Way of Spokane County officially closes its doors after more than a century of supporting charities throughout the region. Many groups, from the Boys and Girls Clubs to Dolly Parton's Imagination Library, are reflecting on the years of help and the challenge ahead of finding new funding homes. While the closure is sad news, leaders say other Spokane nonprofits are stepping up, shifting how support is delivered to kids, families, and those in need. On the city’s streets, Spokane Valley is getting ready for some big decisions. Next week, voters in the Valley will head to the polls to weigh in on a new public safety tax. If passed, the measure would fund more police officers, quicker emergency response, and enhanced neighborhood safety. Community conversations are ongoing, with officials urging residents to learn how their vote could shape public safety for years to come. Turning to weather, expect the sizzle of mid-summer today but keep an umbrella handy. Thunderstorms are possible this evening, following yesterday’s spotty rain and some brief power outages. Firefighters are also keeping a close eye on wildfires still smoldering in the Bonnie Lake canyon. Make sure to stay updated if you’re out near rural or wooded areas. There’s plenty to keep you busy around town today. If you’re looking to move and stretch, Riverfront Park is hosting a free Power Vinyasa Yoga session tonight at the Tribal Gathering Place. Or, if you’re in the mood for music, the Osprey Patio Concert Series is back with live sets at the Osprey Restaurant on Division Street. Want something a little different? Cirque Musica fans can grab early presale tickets with the promo code CHEER, but you’ll need to move fast; the presale ends tonight. Families have options, too. Kids can get creative with story and character-building workshops at the South Hill Library, or try a ballet and lyrical dance class at Indian Trail Library later in the evening. Movie lovers can catch Moonlit Movies’ outdoor showing of Elemental tonight, so grab your blanket and settle in for fun under the stars. Finally, a note of community pride: Maddie’s Place, a local non-profit, has secured new city funding to support its mission, while the Spokane NAACP has hired its first executive director in a century—marking new chapters for vital local organizations.

While the closure is sad news, leaders say other Spokane nonprofits are stepping up, shifting how support is delivered to kids, families, and those in need. On the city’s streets, Spokane Valley is getting ready for some big decisions. Next week, voters in the Valley will head to the polls to weigh in on a new public safety tax. If passed, the measure would fund more police officers, quicker emergency response, and enhanced neighborhood safety. Community conversations are ongoing, with officials urging residents to learn how their vote could shape public safety for years to come. Turning to weather, expect the sizzle of mid-summer today but keep an umbrella handy. Thunderstorms are possible this evening, following yesterday’s spotty rain and some brief power outages. Firefighters are also keeping a close eye on wildfires still smoldering in the Bonnie Lake canyon. Make sure to stay updated if you’re out near rural or wooded areas. There’s plenty to keep you busy around town today. If you’re looking to move and stretch, Riverfront Park is hosting a free Power Vinyasa Yoga session tonight at the Tribal Gathering Place. Or, if you’re in the mood for music, the Osprey Patio Concert Series is back with live sets at the Osprey Restaurant on Division Street. Want something a little different? Cirque Musica fans can grab early presale tickets with the promo code CHEER, but you’ll need to move fast; the presale ends tonight. Families have options, too. Kids can get creative with story and character-building workshops at the South Hill Library, or try a ballet and lyrical dance class at Indian Trail Library later in the evening. Movie lovers can catch Moonlit Movies’ outdoor showing of Elemental tonight, so grab your blanket and settle in for fun under the stars. Finally, a note of community pride: Maddie’s Place, a local non-profit, has secured new city funding to support its mission, while the Spokane NAACP has hired its first executive director in a century—marking new chapters for vital local organizations. This has been Spokane Local Frequency. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.

Over the weekend, Spokane residents enjoyed a packed slate of events, and if you missed out, don’t worry—there’s plenty happening as we kick off the week. Today, local families have the chance to get moving at the Nigel Williams-Goss Youth Basketball Skills Camp, running from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the HUB Sports Center in Liberty Lake. This three-day camp welcomes young athletes eager to build their basketball fundamentals while meeting other motivated youth from around the area. For creative kids, Camp Broadway is opening its fourth week this morning, bringing the magic of musical theater to Spokane’s next generation. That program runs all week from nine to three for ages eight to thirteen. Whether your child wants to sing, dance, or just step into the spotlight, this camp at the heart of Spokane’s arts scene could be just the ticket. Looking ahead to tonight, BMX lovers can head out to the Spokane BMX track for Gate Practice at 6 p.m. It’s ideal for beginners wanting to try a new sport or seasoned riders keen to sharpen their race starts. For those seeking a more relaxed evening, the Fun Circle Knitting Group meets tomorrow, offering a welcoming space for new and experienced knitters to connect over crafts and conversation. In community news, Spokane is buzzing as Washington state’s population tops 8.1 million, reflecting steady local growth. Residents should also keep an eye on public policy, as 333 new state laws take effect tomorrow, shaping areas from housing to policing and medical debt. Over in Spokane Valley, crews are making real progress on containing the Lake Spokane Fire, with officials reporting over 50 percent containment. Though some evacuation levels remain, no new structures have been lost, and continued aerial support is helping local families breathe a little easier. On the lighter side, the weekend saw the 33 Artists Market draw a lively crowd at the Pergola Event Center, while basketball fever swept through Chewelah’s 3-on-3 tournament. Participants from all ages and backgrounds showed off their moves and cheered on friends in a summer tradition that turns Main Avenue into a block party of hoops and camaraderie, even as the heat tested everyone’s limits. As always, you’ll find local leaders and organizations active this week, with everything from political meetups to visibility events happening around Spokane. Whether you’re looking to get involved, pick up a new hobby, or just take in the city's vibrant summer spirit, Spokane has something to offer. That’s all for today.

First up, today marks the start of several new Washington state laws that will directly impact Spokane residents. Among the changes, law enforcement agencies could see a boost in funding to support more officers on the streets, and developers of new housing will need to meet updated parking requirements. Notably, special education services will now be extended to students through the end of the school year in which they turn 22, opening crucial support for hundreds of local families. That new age limit follows a state push to meet federal education standards. On the environmental front, Washington’s Clean Fuels Standard starts ramping up with stricter annual targets for reducing transportation emissions, signaling more incentives for clean energy vehicles and greener commutes for everyone in Spokane. In city news, Spokane officials continue road projects around town, so be mindful of changing traffic patterns and lane closures, especially if you’re headed downtown or commuting through the north end. Fire crews remain vigilant with several wildfires burning in the region, so keep an eye on air quality reports and updates if you plan on outdoor activities today. Now for what you can get out and enjoy this Sunday. Art lovers have one last chance to catch Spokane painter Marcia McDonald as guest artist at Pottery Place Plus in the Historic Liberty Building. Her works, inspired by the interplay of light, color, and our beautiful local landscape, will be on view until 7pm. If you’re in the mood for some tunes and a drive, music fans can head north to the Festival at Sandpoint to catch Third Eye Blind, or stay closer to home tonight for an outdoor concert at Northern Quest where Alison Krauss and Union Station are joined by Willie Watson and Jerry Douglas. For some fresh local flavor, check out the Scale House Market at the Quarry, running from 11am to 7pm, with fresh produce, crafts, and plenty of Spokane spirit on display. In sports, Spokane Velocity FC faced a tough loss last night against Sacramento Republic FC in the final Jägermeister Cup Match. Despite coming up short one nil, it was a proud night as local Academy player Rocky Wells made his professional debut, marking a milestone for Spokane’s homegrown soccer talent. A quick community reminder, the much-anticipated Tacos y Tequila Festival slated for next month has been canceled due to safety concerns, so update your summer event calendar accordingly. Finally, for a peaceful pause or spiritual boost this morning, several local churches including Summit Spokane are live-streaming their services with music and community connection that anyone can join from home.

Starting off today, crews are battling the Lake Spokane fire, which has now burned over 1,700 acres in Stevens County. Two structures, including a home, have been lost and dozens more are at risk with containment still at just one percent. Firefighters are gathering at Lakeside Middle School this morning, and up to 400 personnel could be on scene through the day as conditions remain dry. If you’re heading out in the area, stay alert and make way for emergency vehicles as this situation develops. A tragic incident occurred over the weekend on Division Street near Dalton Avenue. Early Saturday, two men were riding an electric scooter northbound on the sidewalk when the passenger lost his balance and fell into the roadway, where he was struck by a semi-truck. Despite immediate efforts from the driver, Spokane police officers, and fire crews, the man did not survive. The area was closed for several hours while the investigation took place, and authorities say the semi driver was cooperative and showed no signs of impairment. The Spokane County Medical Examiner’s Office will release the victim’s name soon. Please remember, scooter safety is critical—ride with caution, especially downtown and in busy corridors. For your morning commute, a traffic heads-up: Carlisle Avenue is closed as of today due to continued North Spokane Corridor construction. Plan an alternate route and give yourself extra travel time if your day takes you through this part of town. Looking for something to do today? Head to Riverfront Park where the weather’s taking a cooler turn. Expect scattered showers and temperatures just peaking in the low 70s, a nice relief from recent heat. It’s a great time to walk the Centennial Trail, visit the Looff Carrousel, or stop by the Numerica Skate Ribbon, which has roller skating in full swing for summer. Families can catch a final afternoon splash at the Spokane Pavilion fountains or enjoy street performers around the park’s main plaza. Baseball fans, the Spokane Indians are in the midst of their summer homestand at Avista Stadium. Tonight’s game is welcoming local youth groups, and there are still tickets available—grab a seat for some classic summer fun under the lights. If indoors is more your vibe, several downtown art galleries are featuring new exhibits this week, and many local shops continue their summer sidewalk sales. If you’re catching the bus or taking a drive around town, don’t forget: the city’s major construction projects continue to impact traffic patterns, especially near downtown and north Spokane, so stay patient and check city updates for the latest. As always, Spokane’s local nonprofits and food banks can use volunteers this summer, so if you find yourself with extra time, consider lending a hand and meet some neighbors while you’re at it.

If you’re heading out in the area, stay alert and make way for emergency vehicles as this situation develops. A tragic incident occurred over the weekend on Division Street near Dalton Avenue. Early Saturday, two men were riding an electric scooter northbound on the sidewalk when the passenger lost his balance and fell into the roadway, where he was struck by a semi-truck. Despite immediate efforts from the driver, Spokane police officers, and fire crews, the man did not survive. The area was closed for several hours while the investigation took place, and authorities say the semi driver was cooperative and showed no signs of impairment. The Spokane County Medical Examiner’s Office will release the victim’s name soon. Please remember, scooter safety is critical—ride with caution, especially downtown and in busy corridors. For your morning commute, a traffic heads-up: Carlisle Avenue is closed as of today due to continued North Spokane Corridor construction. Plan an alternate route and give yourself extra travel time if your day takes you through this part of town. Looking for something to do today? Head to Riverfront Park where the weather’s taking a cooler turn. Expect scattered showers and temperatures just peaking in the low 70s, a nice relief from recent heat. It’s a great time to walk the Centennial Trail, visit the Looff Carrousel, or stop by the Numerica Skate Ribbon, which has roller skating in full swing for summer. Families can catch a final afternoon splash at the Spokane Pavilion fountains or enjoy street performers around the park’s main plaza. Baseball fans, the Spokane Indians are in the midst of their summer homestand at Avista Stadium. Tonight’s game is welcoming local youth groups, and there are still tickets available—grab a seat for some classic summer fun under the lights. If indoors is more your vibe, several downtown art galleries are featuring new exhibits this week, and many local shops continue their summer sidewalk sales. If you’re catching the bus or taking a drive around town, don’t forget: the city’s major construction projects continue to impact traffic patterns, especially near downtown and north Spokane, so stay patient and check city updates for the latest. As always, Spokane’s local nonprofits and food banks can use volunteers this summer, so if you find yourself with extra time, consider lending a hand and meet some neighbors while you’re at it. That’s it for today’s local highlights. This has been Spokane Local Frequency.

The sun is out and Spokane is packed with things to do, so let’s dive right in. Starting with the headlines, it’s been a big week for civic news. Protests and debate continue after former Spokane City Council president Ben Stuckart and several others appeared in federal court, following their arrests during last month’s demonstration outside the local ICE facility. The charges have sparked strong opinions both from city leaders and the community. Mayor Lisa Brown, along with council members and state senators, has denounced the move as politically motivated, urging the Justice Department to reconsider and highlighting local leaders’ unified stand for Spokane’s values. In another important legal development, Washington’s new law requiring clergy to report child abuse has been put on hold by a federal judge, keeping the issue at the forefront for advocates and local churches. Meanwhile, on Spokane’s South Hill, the community is still mourning the loss of Sarah Doxy, a well-known leader at Chas Health and an avid runner. She was killed in a tragic hit and run earlier this week. The 17-year-old suspect is now in custody, facing multiple charges. Vigils and tributes continue to grow along Perry Street as neighbors call for safer roads. Switching gears to positive news, a new chapter begins for Spokane’s food scene. Maddie’s Corner Cafe is reopening in that iconic spot we’ve all driven by for years, bringing a fresh spin and plenty of excitement for breakfast lovers across the city. If you’re looking for a way to get moving this morning, Riverfront Moves has you covered with free Pilates at Gesa Pavilion downtown starting at 10. Join locals for a little fresh air and fitness before brunch. Today and tomorrow, wine fans have plenty to celebrate with Northwest Winefest at Schweitzer Mountain.

Closer to home, River Park Square is hosting the Spokane Aerial Summer Shows, with breathtaking acrobatics entertaining families every Saturday in July. Over at No-Li Brewhouse, the Fight Fire with Beer weekend is in full swing featuring DJs, special releases, and fundraisers to support wildfire response. If you’ve got little ones, Carousel Storytime is happening from 11 to noon, offering stories and $1 carousel rides for kids ages two to five. Tonight, for some music, Ole 60 is performing at the Knitting Factory, promising an energetic night out. Meanwhile, Arbor Crest is putting on their much-anticipated Dueling Piano Show, where you can request your favorite songs and dance the night away with amazing valley views.

If you’re just waking up in the Lilac City, let’s get you started with quick updates, community happenings, and some things to check out today around Spokane. In local news, Spokane’s annual point-in-time homeless count has shown a noticeable decrease in the overall number of unhoused residents, although there’s been a rise in the number of people living without shelter. City leaders are closely watching these numbers to shape future housing and outreach programs, with nonprofits spotlighting both progress and persistent challenges. Meanwhile, climate experts at Gonzaga University are issuing reminders about the ongoing heat—make sure to stay hydrated, especially if you’re spending time outdoors today. It’s also wildfire season, so be extra cautious with anything that could spark. An active scene unfolded yesterday afternoon on Spokane’s South Hill, where a juvenile was taken into custody after a hit-and-run incident involving a local jogger. Fortunately, the suspect is now facing charges and the victim is recovering. Safety remains a top priority on our city streets. If you’re a Spokane Valley resident, you’ll want to follow the debate around Proposition 1. It’s up for consideration and would raise the sales tax to fund the hiring of ten new police officers. The measure is attracting attention as the Valley looks to address public safety with significant new investments. On the business beat, Spokane is buzzing with activity. CLE Capital has acquired the historic Rogers Building downtown, signaling new possibilities for this storied property. Several local businesses are expanding, including a second gym from Evergreen Gymnastics in Spokane Valley and MDRNfitness adding a large new studio in Liberty Lake. Williamson & Associates, an industrial equipment manufacturer, is also growing its operation on the West Plains. All signs point to a healthy business climate. Looking for things to do? You’re in luck! Lunarium’s beloved Tea and Kiki drag series holds its latest event tomorrow from 6 to 8 p.m. It’s all ages and free, making it a perfect spot for both newcomers and fans of Spokane’s vibrant creative community.

For those keeping an eye on budgets, check out the new roundup of cheap eats around Spokane.

Let’s start with the headlines making waves across Spokane this morning. Nine local activists, including a former Spokane City Council president and the co-executive director of SCAR, were arrested by U.S. Marshals yesterday. The charges stem from a protest that took place on June 11 outside Spokane’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility, where demonstrators tried to block agents transporting asylum seekers. The defendants are scheduled to make their initial appearances at the federal courthouse at 3 p.m. today. Spokane Mayor Lisa Brown called the arrests a politically motivated action and reaffirmed that Spokane remains committed to being a welcoming city for immigrants. The charges include conspiracy to impede or injure federal officers, and allegations range from deflating bus tires to physically blocking exits, with the demonstration resulting in the facility being locked down for several hours until police intervened. The indictments have stirred a citywide discussion about protest rights and the role of law enforcement in Spokane’s civic life. Elsewhere in Spokane, firefighters had their hands full yesterday with not one but two fires in the city. The second fire was sparked by embers carried from the initial hillside blaze, according to officials. The total response required multiple agencies, and while the main fire is under control, the cause of both incidents remains under investigation. Police have identified a person of interest thanks to security footage and are continuing their inquiries. Thankfully, no major injuries have been reported, but it’s a useful reminder to be careful and follow all fire safety guidelines, especially as the dry conditions persist. Your ballot for the August primary should be in the mail today. Voters in Spokane Valley will soon decide if they want to increase funding for additional law enforcement by raising the local sales tax. It’s a key issue that could shape public safety funding and strategies for years to come, and local officials encourage everyone to be informed and make their voices heard. There’s a new face at the helm of Gonzaga this week, as President Katia Passerini steps into her role, bringing fresh ideas for higher education at the legendary university. Meanwhile, Cheney’s new public pool is the place to be for summertime fun, with locals hitting the water, climbing walls, and swinging on new amenities just in time for the hottest days of July. If food is your passion, Crave NW, the three-day food festival, returns this weekend. Expect tastings, chef demonstrations, and a parade of bold flavors from across the region. It’s one of Spokane’s biggest summer events and sure to satisfy any palate. Sports fans, keep an eye on former Gonzaga stars as Drew Timme and Anton Watson go head-to-head in the NBA Summer League, giving Bulldogs fans plenty to cheer about this week.

It is already shaping up to be a hot day across the Inland Northwest, with the heat advisory still in effect until 8 PM tomorrow. Expect high temperatures hovering between 95 and 105 degrees, and overnight lows staying surprisingly warm. If you are spending time outdoors or know anyone without air conditioning, please check in and keep hydrated. Shade, water, and light clothing are your best friends on a scorcher like this. For those eager to beat the heat, remember that cooling centers around Spokane are open and ready to keep you comfortable. Turning now to the latest headlines, all evacuations have been lifted for residents near the Aubrey Fire by Riverside State Park after crews successfully held the burn area to 50 acres. Over in Stevens County, a wildfire near East Deer Lake Road prompted level one evacuations, but firefighters have made impressive progress, with seventy percent of that fire now contained and air support continuing mop up work. No structures have been damaged, and emergency management officials are asking everyone to avoid the area to give crews the space they need. Local news also brings a sense of relief this morning for one Spokane family. Thirteen-year-old Simeon Wiens, who was missing in Bellevue, has been found and safely reunited with his family. Bellevue police credit both residents and social media for helping quickly circulate his description and bring him home. In community news, Cherry Hill Orchard and Market is celebrating its season opening today after last year’s crop failure, inviting everyone to come experience those first ripe cherries of the summer. And after more than a hundred years of service, United Way of Spokane County is winding down operations, closing a chapter of giving that has impacted generations of Spokane residents. For those looking to make the most of their Sunday, there is plenty happening across town. Music fans might want to check out Lanie Gardner performing live at the Spokane Tribe Casino in Airway Heights tonight. If you have a passion for theater, MJ: The Musical—the Broadway hit inspired by the King of Pop—wraps its Spokane run tonight at the First Interstate Center for the Arts, with tickets still available for the 6:30 PM show. If a family outing is more your style, the Garland Theater is screening Spirited Away at 2 PM, a great way to escape the heat and catch a film classic on the big screen. Finally, a special shoutout to Spokane’s own Dan Amann, who crossed the finish line first at this year’s Hayden Triathlon. It’s another example of local talent shining beyond city limits, and a great inspiration for anyone training for their next race. That’s just a slice of what’s happening today and in the days ahead in Spokane. No matter how you spend your Sunday, stay safe and stay cool. This has been Spokane Local Frequency.

If you have a passion for theater, MJ: The Musical—the Broadway hit inspired by the King of Pop—wraps its Spokane run tonight at the First Interstate Center for the Arts, with tickets still available for the 6:30 PM show. If a family outing is more your style, the Garland Theater is screening Spirited Away at 2 PM, a great way to escape the heat and catch a film classic on the big screen. Finally, a special shoutout to Spokane’s own Dan Amann, who crossed the finish line first at this year’s Hayden Triathlon. It’s another example of local talent shining beyond city limits, and a great inspiration for anyone training for their next race. That’s just a slice of what’s happening today and in the days ahead in Spokane. No matter how you spend your Sunday, stay safe and stay cool. This has been Spokane Local Frequency. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.

As we start the weekend, Spokane is waking up to a summer sizzle, with temperatures expected to climb into the upper 90s and possibly even reach the triple digits. There’s a heat advisory in effect from noon today through Monday evening, so keep those water bottles handy, check on your neighbors, and try to stay cool, especially if you don’t have air conditioning. The warm nights ahead might make it tough to cool off indoors, and authorities recommend limiting your outdoor activities to early morning or late evening. It’s a good idea to wear lightweight clothing and watch for signs of heat exhaustion or heat stroke. Local officials also remind everyone that even a few hours in a cool location can make a big difference during these hot spells. Wildfire risk remains very real across the Inland Northwest, with fire crews on alert due to this stretch of hot, dry weather and occasional gusty winds. With 90 percent of wildfires in Washington thought to be caused by people, burn bans are in place for backyard and campfires, burning fields, or yard waste. Spokane County’s emergency management team encourages everyone to sign up for emergency alerts and be prepared to act right away if you receive an evacuation notice. In news from around the area, all evacuations have been downgraded for the Aubrey Fire near Riverside State Park after crews successfully held the blaze to 50 acres. The much larger Western Pines fire continues to grow, with nearly 4000 acres now affected and some evacuation orders still in place. And the Hope Fire, still burning with an estimated 5634 acres, has so far resisted containment as firefighters and local communities work to protect homes and property. On a brighter note, Mt. Spokane High grad Drew Rasmussen has been called up to the American League All-Star team, making Spokane proud. Looking for things to do this weekend? There’s plenty happening around town. MJ the Musical brings the hits of Michael Jackson to life with a matinee today at 2 PM at the First Interstate Center for the Arts, perfect for fans of all ages. If you’re feeling a little mysterious, there’s a murder mystery event called Death in the Shadows. It kicked off Friday night but check for drop-in opportunities if you’re eager to play detective. Wine lovers will want to stop by Truth Teller Winery this afternoon at 2 for a meet-the-winemaker drop-in tasting and special pairings. Over at Avista Stadium, it’s a classic Spokane summer night with the Spokane Indians taking on the Eugene Emeralds at 7:05. Bring the family and cheer for the home team. And don’t forget the big community carnival happening today—organizers promise an event filled with fun activities for everyone, so check local listings for times and locations. That’s your rundown for today. This has been Spokane Local Frequency. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.

It’s a busy morning in Spokane with both important news and lots of ways to enjoy our sunny summer days. First up, a major story developing overnight: police have arrested a suspect in connection with a string of intentionally set fires across downtown Spokane. The Spokane Police Department’s Major Crimes Unit has been investigating after four buildings were set ablaze early Tuesday, including incidents at the My Fresh Basket grocery store and an electric vehicle charging station at the WSU Spokane campus. The individual, Chad Horn, was arrested last night near Liberty Lake. Police continue to collect evidence and encourage anyone with surveillance footage or information about these fires to contact Crime Check at 509-456-2233. Thankfully, no injuries have been reported, but with the hot, dry, and windy weather, firefighters urge everyone to stay vigilant as fire risk remains high. Speaking of fires, officials are also keeping an eye on wildfire conditions in the region. Strong winds yesterday fueled the Western Pines Fire in Lincoln County, which quickly grew to around 4000 acres and prompted evacuations. The immediate threat to Spokane is low, but the resulting smoke is drifting our way, so expect reduced air quality today. Winds are tapering off, but check air quality updates if you’re sensitive to smoke. In lighter news, Spokane’s summer events calendar is packed today and through the weekend. Tonight, the First Interstate Center for the Arts hosts MJ The Musical at 7:30, a must-see for fans of Michael Jackson and Broadway, with tickets still available. Over at Timber Run Reserve, the Kevin Shay Band brings classic summer sounds to the Sounds of Summer concert series. If you’re in the mood for something eclectic, Lunarium downtown is holding A Night of Tea Leaves starting at 6 pm—a unique experience for anyone interested in Spokane’s vibrant local arts scene. Looking ahead, this weekend brings more festivities, including food and music festivals, outdoor yoga at Riverfront Park, and the much-anticipated Pride Parade and Rainbow Festival. Check out the local farmers’ markets for some of the region’s best produce or visit the Gesa Credit Union Pavilion for Riverfront Eats, our popular food truck gathering coming up next week. On a community note, the city has updated anti-camping rules and Mayor Brown is proposing new measures on affordable housing. And in legal news, Bryan Kohberger, the suspect in the Moscow murders case, pled guilty last week and is set to be sentenced later this month. That’s your Spokane Local Frequency for today. Whether you’re catching a show, supporting local markets, or just enjoying the summer weather, there’s no shortage of ways to make the most of your Thursday in Spokane.

It’s shaping up to be a lively, if toasty, day in the Inland Northwest, so let’s get right to the headlines and happenings. Downtown Spokane woke to the sounds of sirens today, as police are investigating six fires suspected to be arson overnight. The Spokane Police Major Crimes Unit is actively looking for leads, so be sure to report any suspicious activity if you’re out and about near downtown—stay safe and keep your eyes open. Hot, dry, and windy conditions are making things even riskier for fire spread, with a Red Flag Warning in effect until 8 pm tonight. Winds could gust up to 40 miles per hour, and humidity remains low. Officials are urging everyone to follow burn restrictions, keep an eye on outdoor flames, and sign up for “Alert Spokane” for real-time updates. Let’s all do our part to keep Spokane fire safe today. On a brighter note, Spokane’s commitment to a greener city just got a boost. Federal funding has been restored to the city’s tree equity program, so expect to see new plantings popping up around town. This is more than just an aesthetic win—more trees mean cleaner air, healthier neighborhoods, and welcome shade on these hot summer days. In community happenings, there’s plenty to do and celebrate. Downtown Spokane is gearing up for a series of free, family-friendly cultural festivals, thanks to the latest round of Mini Cultural Grants. Mark your calendars for the Armenian Festival on July 26, the lively Summer Splash Party on August 9, and Soul Food & Sips at the end of August. These events on Wall Street are a perfect way to explore Spokane’s rich tapestry of cultures and bring a little extra vibrancy to the city center. If you’re looking for something to do today, families can swing by the Library for Mario Kart Coding and Crafts at 3:30 this afternoon, or try your luck at Bingo Night at YaYa Brewing Company starting at 6. Over at the First Interstate Center for the Arts, fans of spectacular stage shows can catch MJ: The Musical tonight at 7:30, a tribute to the king of pop that’s sure to thrill crowds all week long. A quick heads-up for area residents: those north of Kettle Falls are under evacuation due to a fast-growing wildfire in Stevens County, so if you have friends or family up that way, check in and offer support. And a round of applause is in order for Suwanee Lennon, a Spokane cook who just landed a spot on PBS’s Great American Recipe. We’ll be rooting for you, Suwanee, and looking forward to seeing Spokane flavors hit the national stage. That’s it for today’s Spokane Local Frequency.

We’re starting off with breaking news from downtown Spokane, where authorities are investigating a series of six fires that were determined to be intentionally set early yesterday morning. The Spokane Police Major Crimes Unit is working with fire investigators to determine who may be responsible, and they’re asking anyone with surveillance video or photos from the downtown area between 4 and 6 AM to reach out to police. Thankfully, quick work by fire crews kept the flames from spreading further, but the string of arsons is a reminder to stay alert, especially with the heat and wind making fire conditions particularly dangerous this week. On the wildfire front, there’s some relief for folks near Cheney and northwest Spokane. The 700-acre Bonnie Lake fire is now 93 percent contained, and most evacuations have been lifted for both that area and Riverside State Park, which was impacted by the Aubrey fire. Some smoke will still be visible around these burn areas as firefighters continue mopping up and monitoring, so don’t be alarmed if you see a haze on the horizon. Officials believe both of these fires were human-caused and are continuing their investigations. Weather-wise, Spokane is bracing for another scorcher. Today is likely to be the hottest day of the year so far, with a high of 96 expected. There’s a red flag warning in effect due to hot, dry, and windy conditions, with gusts up to 40 miles per hour possible later in the afternoon and evening. That means a high risk for wildfires and fast-changing fire behavior, so be cautious with any outdoor activities. But it’s not all heat and headlines—there’s plenty to do around town if you’re looking to stay cool and connected. In the heart of Spokane, the Global Food and Art Market pops up this afternoon in the Garland District from 3:30 to 7:30. It’s a vibrant outdoor market celebrating Spokane’s international community, with delicious food, live music, and local art—a perfect spot to grab an early dinner and soak up the city’s creative spirit. Families with young kids can bounce off the summer energy at Jump For Joy in Spokane Valley, where Open Jump runs from 9:30 to 7 most days. And music lovers can unwind on the Osprey Restaurant’s patio tonight for live local tunes from Kosta la Vista, covering bluesy classic rock from 6 to 9. Admission is free, rain or shine. That’s all for today’s Spokane Local Frequency. Stay safe, stay hydrated, and support your neighbors. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.

We kick off this gorgeous summer day in Spokane with mostly cloudy skies and temperatures already in the high seventies. It looks like we’ll hover near 80 degrees through the afternoon, making it a perfect day to get out and enjoy everything our city has to offer. If you’re looking for something to do today, the events calendar is packed. Music lovers are in for a treat as MJ: The Musical continues its highly anticipated run at the First Interstate Center for the Arts downtown. Performances will run through July 13th, so there’s still time to catch the energy and iconic moves of this Broadway hit. If you prefer something more outdoorsy and peaceful, consider hopping aboard one of the daily scenic cruises on Lake Coeur d’Alene. Boats depart three times a day, offering a relaxing way to take in the stunning lake views. Speaking of fresh air, the NE Hillyard Farmers Market is open today at the Northeast Community Center on North Cook Street. Local growers bring produce, handmade goods, and plenty of friendly faces, so it’s a great stop if you want to support Spokane’s local farmers and artisans. On the public safety front, residents may have noticed a bit of a scare at Riverfront Park last night as a false report of a shooting briefly halted the evening's festivities. Authorities responded quickly, confirming soon after that there was no real threat. The event did cause a temporary delay and the fireworks show was paused, but all activities eventually resumed and the park was cleared as safe. This follows a weekend of heightened awareness as the region processes news from neighboring communities, including an active shooter situation and a tragic ambush on Idaho firefighters near Canfield Mountain. Spokane officials urge everyone to stay aware of their surroundings and continue looking out for one another. Meanwhile, our city council made headlines yesterday by rejecting the ‘Safe and Welcome in Spokane’ ordinance, a proposal that aimed to address safety and homelessness in downtown areas. The discussion drew strong opinions from both supporters and critics, and debate is sure to continue as Spokane looks to balance growing needs for public safety, business vitality, and compassion for all residents. Fire conditions remain a concern with several uncontained wildfires in the broader Northwest Area. The Apple Acres fire, about five miles south of Spokane in BLM land, continues to show active fire behavior. As a result, some area, road, and trail closures are in effect, so if you’re planning to hike or travel in those areas, be sure to check the latest updates. That’s what’s happening in and around Spokane today. Enjoy the summer weather, check out a show or local market, and stay safe out there. This has been Spokane Local Frequency.

We start today with news from downtown Spokane, where last night’s highly anticipated fireworks show at Riverfront Park was abruptly halted soon after it began. Reports of an active shooter sent crowds dispersing and prompted a swift response from local authorities. Fortunately, after a thorough search, officials confirmed that there was no ongoing threat, but the incident left many shaken and fireworks were canceled for the night. City leaders are reviewing safety protocols to ensure future events proceed smoothly, and they’re encouraging residents to remain vigilant but not discouraged from attending community celebrations in the days ahead. In other local headlines, the City of Spokane continues to advance efforts to address housing insecurity. The HOME Starts Here Initiative is in focus, aiming to build a more coordinated response for those experiencing homelessness. City officials are working closely with non-profits and neighborhood groups, hoping for meaningful impacts this summer as outreach and shelter programs ramp up across the region. The city council recently passed measures supporting equity and safety, including protections for the LGBTQIA2S plus community and new controls on alcohol outlets near public spaces. These steps are part of a broader push to make Spokane’s neighborhoods more inclusive and family-friendly. Expect continued discussion at next week’s council meetings as city leaders tackle housing shortages and public safety concerns. Fire danger remains top of mind after a dry June. Wildfire preparedness drills are underway in several neighborhoods, so if you see activity involving firefighters and emergency vehicles, know it’s part of proactive training. City officials urge everyone to review their own evacuation plans and clear flammable debris from around homes as temperatures rise. Looking for ways to enjoy the sunshine this weekend? Riverfront Park is open, and while the fireworks are postponed, you can still enjoy the SkyRide, the Looff Carrousel, and splash pads for the kids. Farmers markets across Spokane are bustling with fresh berries, local honey, and artisan goods—perfect for easing into the post-holiday weekend. For sports fans, the Spokane Indians continue their homestand at Avista Stadium, and there are pick-up soccer games and yoga sessions happening in city parks. If you’re feeling creative, the Northwest Museum of Arts and Culture has new exhibits exploring the history and future of the Inland Northwest. Travelers should expect roadwork on major arterials as city crews continue their summer maintenance push. Give yourself extra time if heading downtown or out to the South Hill.

City officials urge everyone to review their own evacuation plans and clear flammable debris from around homes as temperatures rise. Looking for ways to enjoy the sunshine this weekend?

It is Independence Day here in Spokane, and all around the city you can feel the anticipation for a day packed with celebrations, reflection, and a whole lot of fireworks. Before we dive into the fun, a quick reminder that Spokane City Hall, along with several city facilities, will be closed today in honor of the holiday. Even your curbside garbage pickup will shift by one day, so set those bins out a bit later this week. But if you need city services, Spokane 311 is still accepting non-urgent requests online. Let’s talk festivities. Riverfront Park is the heart of Spokane’s Fourth of July, and you can expect a full day of live music, delicious food trucks, and family-friendly activities. The highlight, of course, is the fireworks extravaganza at the Lilac Bowl. The show starts at 10 p.m. and is visible all across downtown, especially near the iconic Clock Tower and the Pavilion. Bring a blanket, claim your spot early, and get ready for an unforgettable evening under the stars. If baseball is more your scene, head out to Avista Stadium where the Spokane Indians take on the Tri-City Dust Devils. After the final out, fans can watch a special post-game fireworks display—tickets are still available for those looking for a classic American doubleheader: baseball and fireworks. And for those escaping the city hustle, Liberty Lake’s Pavilion Park is hosting its own celebration. Fireworks will launch from the baseball fields by Liberty Creek and the elementary schools, with viewing areas all around the city. The show also starts at 10, so you’ll have your pick of locations tonight. On a more serious note, Spokane officials are reminding everyone that personal fireworks are prohibited within city limits. For everyone’s safety, please enjoy the professional shows and, if you spot illegal fireworks, you can report them quickly using the SREC mobile app or online through July 6th. For something a little different today, the Browne’s Addition Concert Series keeps spirits high with a free outdoor performance by the 17-piece Dues Band, perfect for jazz lovers looking for local flair this holiday. And if you’re interested in Spokane’s fascinating history, there are plenty of stories to uncover—from historic concerts to notable moments that shaped our region, like Tammy Wynette headlining a Spokane Valley festival on this very day years ago. However you choose to celebrate today—whether it’s music in the park, fireworks with friends, or quiet reflection—remember to stay safe, be respectful, and enjoy everything Spokane has to offer this Independence Day.

Spokane is waking up to a perfect summer morning, with clear skies and temperatures already climbing toward the low 90s. If you’re headed outdoors, be sure to stay hydrated, and keep your eyes open for wildfire advisories, as the Texas Ferry Siegel Fire near Bonnie Lake has grown to 450 acres, prompting expanded Level 3 evacuations in parts of Spokane County. Fire crews are working around the clock, and residents near the evacuation zones are urged to follow official directions for safety. On a lighter note, the city’s summer events calendar is as packed as ever. Country fans can look forward to a star-studded show tonight at Northern Quest Resort and Casino, where Billy Currington and Kip Moore are taking the stage. Expect a lively crowd, great music, and a real sense of celebration heading into the July Fourth weekend. For those seeking a little culture with their sunshine, the Shakespeare Coeur d’Alene is putting on a spirited outdoor performance of Much Ado About Nothing. Organizers remind us that you don’t have to be a college professor or a snooty person to enjoy Shakespeare under the stars. Just bring a lawn chair and a sense of humor. Gardening enthusiasts, now’s the time to double down on watering and weeding to keep those yards and gardens looking their best. Local experts advise that early morning or late evening is ideal for watering to minimize evaporation during these warm days. And if you’re planning a backyard get-together, remember that Spokane is still under wildfire precautions, so check with the city before lighting any fire pits or sparklers. There’s plenty happening downtown as well. Today’s a great day to stroll through Riverfront Park or check out the special All-American City exhibit highlighting Spokane’s unique history and community spirit. For theater lovers, Broadway’s MJ the Musical is in town this week, promising audiences an engaging look at Michael Jackson’s life and legacy. If you’re more inclined to nature than the theater, Alan Liere’s latest report says the fishing is excellent in many local lakes and rivers—just make sure to follow all posted guidelines and respect wildlife areas. On the civic side, Spokane’s City Council has been active, recently voting on new protections for the LGBTQIA2S plus community and advancing key infrastructure projects to improve pedestrian and bike routes around the city. These steps connect directly to Spokane’s ongoing commitment to accessibility and equity, making the city more welcoming for everyone. That wraps up your morning brief, Spokane. Whatever your plans are today—whether you’re catching a concert, tending your garden, or helping a neighbor—know that you’re part of a vibrant and resilient community.

Kicking things off, Sacred Heart Medical Center made headlines as a Seattle patient traveled to Spokane specifically for a specialized robotic heart surgery. This showcases Spokane’s expanding role as a regional center for advanced medical care, drawing patients from across the Northwest and highlighting our city’s growing reputation in the health sector. Community matters are top of mind this week. After the City Council’s recent declaration, June 22 is officially Kids Day in Spokane, so families can look forward to more kid-centered activities and resources in neighborhood parks this summer. Speaking of parks, a new study out this week is reinforcing just how vital our local parks are to Spokane’s quality of life. With the long days and warm temperatures, there’s no better time to get outside and enjoy them. If you’re ready for some music, you’re in luck. Look for live bands lighting up patios and breweries downtown tonight as the city’s vibrant music scene kicks into high gear. Whether you lean toward indie, blues, or classic rock, there’s a sound for everyone somewhere in the city. Check local venues for last-minute tickets or even free outdoor performances. For outdoor enthusiasts, Alan Liere’s latest hunting and fishing report shows local rivers are still teeming with fish thanks to this year’s steady flow. It’s also peak paddling season, so expect to see plenty of kayaks and canoes out on the Spokane River and nearby lakes. And speaking of adventures, there’s an inspiring story making the rounds about a solo paddler in the Boundary Waters, reminding us all of the wilderness just a few hours from home. In community news, there’s hope and reunion for one local Afghan family, recently brought together again after being separated during the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan. Their joyful reunion in Spokane highlights the city’s ongoing commitment to welcoming new neighbors and building a supportive, diverse community. On the civic front, the City Council continues to address complex issues, from housing instability to public safety and equitable protections for all residents. And for those interested in local government, council meetings remain open to public comment, so your voice can still help shape Spokane’s future. Before we wrap up, here’s a reminder to stay alert for traffic changes as city crews continue with scheduled summer road maintenance. It’s best to plan a little extra time for your commute, especially in residential neighborhoods where new projects are underway. That’s what’s happening around Spokane today.

A quick look back in Spokane history today reminds us of a wild storm that set off alarms at Sacred Heart years ago, but this week, it’s a different kind of buzz in the city. Film crews have rolled into town to shoot a promotional movie about Spokane, putting the spotlight on our neighborhoods, iconic sights, and the people who make this community shine. If you spot cameras around town, don’t be shy—give Spokane your best smile and who knows, you might catch a glimpse of yourself when the promo debuts later this year. On the news front, Spokane is feeling the ripples of global unrest. Iranian retaliation and a recent ceasefire with Israel have many in Spokane County watching global headlines closely. For some, it’s a source of stress and concern, while others are trying to tune it out and focus on local life. These tensions are a reminder of how interconnected our world is, even right here in the Inland Northwest, and local leaders are encouraging residents to reach out for support if they’re feeling anxious or unsettled by the news cycle. Back at home, there are some important updates for commuters. If your route takes you through north Spokane, plan ahead—a water main repair will affect traffic and cause some delays on Friday morning. Expect construction signage and detours, and be sure to give crews plenty of space to work safely. For those on two wheels, Spokane Police are investigating a fatal motorcycle collision from the weekend, urging everyone to use extra caution as summer traffic picks up. Looking for something uplifting? Tonight, head to the Argonne Library for the Mount Spokane Master Plan Open House, running from 4 to 7 p.m. This drop-in event is your chance to shape the next 20 years of Mount Spokane State Park. Planners want to hear your input on two big visions—one that focuses on enhancing existing amenities and another that would transform the park into a year-round recreation destination. There will be interactive stations, opportunities to vote on your favorite projects, and refreshments on hand.

A quick look back in Spokane history today reminds us of a wild storm that set off alarms at Sacred Heart years ago, but this week, it’s a different kind of buzz in the city. Film crews have rolled into town to shoot a promotional movie about Spokane, putting the spotlight on our neighborhoods, iconic sights, and the people who make this community shine. If you spot cameras around town, don’t be shy—give Spokane your best smile and who knows, you might catch a glimpse of yourself when the promo debuts later this year. On the news front, Spokane is feeling the ripples of global unrest. Iranian retaliation and a recent ceasefire with Israel have many in Spokane County watching global headlines closely. For some, it’s a source of stress and concern, while others are trying to tune it out and focus on local life. These tensions are a reminder of how interconnected our world is, even right here in the Inland Northwest, and local leaders are encouraging residents to reach out for support if they’re feeling anxious or unsettled by the news cycle. Back at home, there are some important updates for commuters. If your route takes you through north Spokane, plan ahead—a water main repair will affect traffic and cause some delays on Friday morning. Expect construction signage and detours, and be sure to give crews plenty of space to work safely. For those on two wheels, Spokane Police are investigating a fatal motorcycle collision from the weekend, urging everyone to use extra caution as summer traffic picks up. Looking for something uplifting? Tonight, head to the Argonne Library for the Mount Spokane Master Plan Open House, running from 4 to 7 p.m. This drop-in event is your chance to shape the next 20 years of Mount Spokane State Park. Planners want to hear your input on two big visions—one that focuses on enhancing existing amenities and another that would transform the park into a year-round recreation destination. There will be interactive stations, opportunities to vote on your favorite projects, and refreshments on hand.

Downtown Spokane is buzzing today as the highly anticipated Bazaar Art Festival makes its colorful return, offering an open-air feast for the senses right in the heart of the city. Local artists, crafters, and community creatives are taking over, transforming the streets into a celebration of imagination and ingenuity. Expect booths filled with everything from handmade jewelry to funky ceramics, plus live music and food vendors adding to the lively scene. It is a unique chance to discover local talent and maybe pick up a one-of-a-kind piece to take home or gift to a friend. The festival is more than just an art market; it is about reigniting Spokane’s creative spirit and bringing the community together for a day of inspiration and fun. If you are looking for a reason to get outside, this is it. In other uplifting news, Spokane is playing host to the finish line of a remarkable event: an all-women’s airplane race that has captivated aviation enthusiasts and inspired young girls across the region. Pilots and fans gathered at Felts Field to celebrate as sleek aircraft touched down, and the energy has been downright contagious. Participants say the race is more than a competition—it is a celebration of skill, adventure, and the growing role of women in aviation. If you are in the area, swing by and marvel at the aircraft, chat with pilots, and soak in the sense of possibility this event brings to town. On a more somber note, the community is still reflecting after the recent memorial for the Decker sisters. Their family opened up about their loss, and friends and neighbors have gathered to remember and honor them. It is moments like these that underscore the strength and support woven through Spokane’s neighborhoods. As for outdoor conditions, the weather is cooperating for all your weekend plans—expect warm sunshine with just enough breeze to keep things comfortable. With fire season on everyone’s mind, local officials remind us to be vigilant, especially near dry grass and open spaces, and to keep an eye out for updates on the Keeney wildfire as crews continue their hard work keeping residents safe. Before we go, a quick local government update: The Spokane City Council has unanimously passed an ordinance banning virtual currency kiosks. The move is designed to address concerns about security and consumer protection as digital financial services continue to evolve. For those looking to explore, there is plenty to do beyond the art fair. Farmers markets are in full swing, local parks are green and inviting, and the river trails are buzzing with runners and cyclists. Whether you are meeting friends downtown, getting outside for some fresh air, or just taking the day to recharge, Spokane is serving up plenty of possibilities. This has been Spokane Local Frequency.

Let’s kick things off with a health care milestone. Sacred Heart Medical Center made headlines this week as a patient from Seattle traveled all the way to Spokane for a specialized robotic heart surgery. The buzz around this procedure is growing, with experts saying more patients are choosing Spokane for high-end medical care. It’s another sign that our city’s hospitals are quietly leading the way in medical innovation. If you’re looking for something fun to do, music lovers should get ready for a throwback treat. A legendary Spokane band from the 1980s has just re-released some of its top hits, offering longtime fans and newcomers alike a fresh taste of our city’s musical roots. For those wanting something a little more contemporary, the Grammy Award-winning Nitty Gritty Dirt Band is making a tour stop in Spokane as they say goodbye on their farewell tour. It’s a rare chance to see music legends live, right in our own backyard. On the arts and culture front, this week’s Juneteenth celebrations brought special guests to town, including former Seattle Seahawk Cliff Avril, who inspired local youth by talking football and the importance of lifelong learning. Spokane is also making history by renaming a city park in honor of Black trailblazers, just in time for Juneteenth. This move marks another step toward celebrating diversity and acknowledging the contributions of our Black community members. The Spokane City Council made some waves of its own, voting unanimously to prohibit virtual currency kiosks throughout the city. Officials say the decision aims to address concerns about financial security and fraud, so if you’re used to buying or selling cryptocurrency at kiosks, you’ll want to adjust your plans starting now. In public safety updates, the Spokane Fire Department announced it’s expanding its Community Assistance Response Team, with a new social worker joining the crew to help with non-emergency calls. The police are asking residents for help identifying a witness to last Friday’s fatal collision at Market and Francis—if you have information, they want to hear from you. Weather-wise, get ready for a shift. After a warm streak, things are cooling down as steady rain moves in this weekend. It’s good news for your garden, and maybe a chance to check out some indoor events around town. That’s a wrap on today’s Spokane Local Frequency. Whether you’re planning to catch a concert, check out a re-released album, or just enjoy a rainy day indoors, there’s no shortage of things happening in Spokane.

In city government updates, the Spokane City Council has voted unanimously to eliminate virtual currency kiosks within city limits, a move designed to strengthen oversight and protect consumers from potential fraud. This decision reflects ongoing efforts to respond to emerging technologies while ensuring resident safety remains a top priority. If you have questions about how this might impact your neighborhood or local businesses, the city council will be holding a public Q and A later this week. In business news, Spokane is seeing continued economic growth with the much-anticipated opening of a new major financial center downtown, following the recent two hundred thirty million dollar acquisition of First Financial from Renton. This expansion is poised to create new jobs, offer expanded services for local businesses, and invigorate the heart of downtown Spokane. For those seeking employment or new partnership opportunities, now is a great time to connect with the local business community. Turning to events and entertainment, tonight offers plenty to keep you busy. Northern Quest Resort and Casino will be rocking to the sounds of Jon Pardi, so country fans can dust off their boots and get ready for a real honkytonk experience. Over at the Spokane Arena, classic rock legends Little Feat are taking the stage, celebrating their long run since 1969 with music from their fresh new album. If you’re looking for something a little different, the Spokane Symphony is taking to the outdoors with their innovative BeethoVan mobile stage, offering a special Summer Solstice Sunset Concert in Spokane Valley—don’t forget to bring a chair and enjoy some classical favorites as the sun goes down. And if nostalgia is calling, the 1980s Spokane band Manito Park—yes, named after our beloved city park—has just re-released some of their best hits, perfect for a walk down memory lane. Meanwhile, the legendary Nitty Gritty Dirt Band is rolling through Spokane on their farewell tour, giving fans a final chance to sing along to American classics. For those looking to get involved, local organizations are mobilizing in support of immigrant neighbors, with peaceful protests and community events planned throughout the week, highlighting Spokane’s tradition of civic engagement and welcoming spirit. Whether you’re headed downtown, out to a concert, or just enjoying the sights and sounds of summer, there’s no shortage of ways to take part in the energy buzzing through Spokane today.

It was a dramatic night downtown as Spokane declared a rare citywide curfew following escalating protests outside the local ICE office. Demonstrators, rallying around the detention of a 21-year-old Venezuelan asylum seeker, gathered in growing numbers, leading police to declare the assembly unlawful and deploy tear gas to disperse the crowd. The mayor issued the curfew just after 8 PM, covering much of downtown including Riverfront Park, Division, Boone, and Howard streets. This measure, the first of its kind since 2020, will remain in effect until 5 AM today, and several arrests have been confirmed. City officials are urging everyone to stay updated and avoid the affected areas until the curfew lifts. On a brighter note, there are a ton of ways to enjoy the start of your summer in Spokane.

Sanders, featuring abstract trans forms—a must-see for art lovers looking for a splash of color and creative inspiration. Over at the Fox Theater, the Spokane Symphony’s mobile concert stage is making waves with surprise pop-up performances in parks around town, so keep your eyes peeled for spontaneous symphonic sounds as you stroll the city. Education also took a step forward this week. Spokane Falls Community College celebrated its first graduating class from the new integrated behavioral health bachelor’s degree program, a move that aims to provide more homegrown mental health professionals for our community. Looking ahead to the weekend, local businesses are jumping on the new bucket beverage trend—grab an oversized lemonade or cocktail to go and hit up the city’s many outdoor seating areas. And with Father’s Day around the corner, restaurants across Spokane are rolling out special menus, so now’s the time to secure a reservation and show Dad some love. Finally, Spokane Pride is pushing ahead stronger than ever, deepening its local roots in the Inland Northwest despite losing national funding. Organizers are promising an unforgettable experience with parades and community events throughout the month, so be sure to check the schedule and join the celebration. That’s your roundup for today.

Let’s get started with a look at big local news impacting the Spokane community. Today marks the closure of the Compassionate Addiction Treatment Sobering Center, a vital resource for individuals needing a safe place to recover from drug or alcohol intoxication. The closure is expected to have real impacts on local services, as emergency departments and law enforcement will now shoulder more of this responsibility. Advocates continue to raise concerns about finding long-term solutions for those in need of support, with city leaders saying discussions are underway about alternative options for these vulnerable residents. Meanwhile, Spokane’s refugee communities are facing uncertainty after a recent Supreme Court decision allows for the stripping of parole status. Many families who have built their lives here are now searching for a path forward, and local organizations are working hard to provide legal resources and community support. This story is developing, and Spokane’s tradition of neighborly compassion is on full display as neighbors rally to help. In other news, the city recently responded to a fire at the Sky View Apartments on West Gardner, where all residents were safely evacuated and no injuries were reported, thanks to swift action by local firefighters. It’s a reminder of the dedication our first responders show every day. Turning to the good things happening around Spokane, Art Fest 2025 kicks off this weekend. Head over to Browne’s Addition to find batik artwork, enamel jewelry, live demonstrations, and plenty of opportunities to support local artists. Whether you’re an art enthusiast or just looking for a relaxing afternoon in the sunshine, Art Fest is sure to offer something for everyone. And if you’re interested in seeing Spokane’s community spirit in action, neighborhood leaders and the city have recently conducted a wildfire evacuation drill, part of an ongoing focus on preparedness as we get into the summer months. It’s a smart move as Spokane continues efforts to ensure everyone’s safety with the changing season. A bit of civic news to keep on your radar: Spokane’s City Council has been busy with new housing initiatives and protections for the LGBTQIA2S+ community. Plus, if you’re headed around the city, be aware that crews are still hard at work with road maintenance and improvements in both residential and arterial areas. Looking for something fun to do this weekend? Beyond Art Fest, the city is teeming with parks and trails perfect for late spring outings. As always, downtown is buzzing with local shops, live music, and great spots for coffee or a bite to eat. That’s the local scene as we close out May and head into a sunny Spokane summer.

We are heading into the weekend with a mix of some big community milestones, fresh developments, and plenty of things to do around town, so let’s get you caught up. Spokane is buzzing today as the Downtown Spokane Partnership hosts its fourth annual State of Downtown and Downtown Awards. This year’s event, themed Downtown Love Story, celebrates not just the projects that are shaping the city’s future, but also the people and local businesses that give the community its heart. Today, civic leaders, business owners, and residents will gather to recognize some of Spokane’s most influential contributors, with a special focus on Hoopfest Spokane. Hoopfest, which has transformed downtown into the world’s largest 3-on-3 basketball stage every summer since 1990, is being honored with the Legacy Award for its continuous impact, drawing hundreds of thousands, energizing our downtown, and building a culture of inclusivity and pride that stretches far beyond the courts. In local news, there’s been movement in community resources and public safety. Spokane Fire Department is expanding its Community Assistance Response Team—known as CARES—with the addition of a new social worker to meet the growing needs of our neighborhoods. For those wanting to give back or get involved, several city departments are rolling out new opportunities and resources to help locals make a difference. On the crime and public safety front, police made an early morning arrest in Shadle after a shooting incident, and downtown businesses are on alert after an unknown suspect threw a brick through a window on Sprague Avenue. Spokane Police are also looking for witnesses related to last week’s fatal collision at Market and Francis, so if you have any information, authorities are urging you to reach out. In another update, the north transfer station remains closed for now after crews narrowly averted what could have been a hazardous explosion—city leaders are working to quickly and safely reopen. Community energy is high elsewhere, too. Spokane Public Schools recently brought students out to Manito Park for a day of hands-on science exploration, underscoring the city’s commitment to experiential learning. Meanwhile, tonight offers a chance for some laughter and reflection as the hit musical Book of Mormon opens in Spokane, courtesy of Diego Enrico and his team, promising to spark conversation, unity, and plenty of laughs. If you are out and about downtown today, take a look at the public spaces and local shops that make this city unique—and don’t forget, those vibrant streets and local eateries are benefitting from a season of events and investment.

We are kicking off today with a lively pulse around Spokane’s higher education scene. Fresh faces are taking the helm at several local universities and colleges, bringing renewed energy to campus programs and signaling a season of new beginnings for students and staff. If you are part of the campus community or thinking about taking a class this summer, it is a good time to check out course offerings and upcoming campus events, which are sure to be buzzing with these changes. In city news, Spokane continues to make strides on housing and homelessness. The city’s H.O.M.E. Starts Here Initiative is rolling out new strategies aimed at reducing housing instability. Local leaders are working on plans for collaborative support, so residents experiencing hardship can connect to resources more easily. If you or someone you know needs help, keep an eye out for pop-up information sessions coming to various neighborhoods throughout June. On the legislative front, Spokane recently secured key funding from the state for projects that will benefit our parks, public safety, and community services. The City Council has also been active, passing a new ordinance to bolster protections for the LGBTQIA2S plus community, showing Spokane’s ongoing commitment to equity and inclusion. In public safety news, a significant rescue operation in northeast Spokane this week ended with two individuals safely rescued and a suspect in custody, a testament to the quick response and coordination of our local emergency teams. Wildfire season is fast approaching, and neighborhood leaders, in partnership with the city, have just finished a large-scale evacuation drill. These efforts are part of a growing focus on disaster preparedness, so expect to see more community drills and resources to help you and your family stay safe as summer heats up. Looking for things to do? The Scholastic Fantastic festival is underway, celebrating education, arts, and community all week. Check out local venues hosting talks, performances, and hands-on activities for all ages. Farmers markets are in full swing, from South Perry to Kendall Yards, offering fresh produce, artisan goods, and plenty of Spokane spirit. Tonight, Riverfront Park is the place to be, with live music and food trucks rolling in for the first in a series of summer concerts. Bring a blanket, grab some friends, and soak in the late spring sunset by the river. Finally, a quick heads-up for drivers: crews are starting street maintenance work in several residential neighborhoods, so watch for detours or slowdowns, especially during morning and evening commutes.

Hope you enjoyed the long weekend, Spokane. As we slide into the last days of May, here is what’s happening around the Lilac City today. One of the big stories lighting up Spokane music fans this morning is the unforgettable moment last night when bluegrass superstar Billy Strings joined none other than Bob Dylan on stage to perform All Along the Watchtower. The surprise collaboration took place at Dylan’s latest set during the Willie Nelson Outlaw Music Festival right here in Spokane, and has local music fans still buzzing with excitement. If you missed it, social media is swirling with clips and smiling concertgoers sharing memories from a night to remember. If you’re looking for something to do today, consider heading downtown to check out the ongoing spring art installations or one of the new shops and restaurants popping up on Main Avenue. The weather forecast today calls for partly cloudy skies, highs in the lower 70s, and just enough sunshine for a lunchtime stroll through Riverfront Park. Don’t forget, the Numerica Skate Ribbon is open all summer for wheels and skates, and the Looff Carrousel is always a favorite for families. Education makes headlines this week, as Spokane celebrates local representation at the 100th annual Scripps National Spelling Bee. A four-time returning speller from Pullman will compete alongside a talented Spokane Valley home-schooler, with both students representing Eastern Washington on the national stage. We wish them the best of luck as they tackle those tough words this week. On the civic front, Mayor Lisa Brown has once again voiced her strong opposition to the Department of Ecology’s plan to transport liquid waste through Spokane, citing both environmental and safety concerns. This remains a developing story as city officials and residents debate Spokane’s role in regional waste management. The city is also rolling out quieter mornings in some neighborhoods, as West Valley Schools have added three new electric buses to their fleet, part of a broader push for cleaner, greener transportation options for students. Meanwhile, on the topic of sustainability, the city recently secured funding for more solar infrastructure at the fire department’s North Foothills location. And to honor local heroes, the Washington State Veterans Cemetery held its annual Memorial Day Service yesterday, with a poignant tribute that included the interment of unclaimed veterans, even honoring a Civil War soldier. Spokane’s community continues to remember and honor those who served in heartfelt ways. As always, there’s plenty more to see and do—just check your local listings for farmers markets, open mic nights, and outdoor movie screenings as the countdown to summer picks up pace.

This achievement comes after decades of effort by neighbors and what's being described as one "charismatic cowboy" who helped champion the cause. In an unprecedented development, a Spokane psychedelic church has received the first-ever approval from the DEA to possess ayahuasca, marking a unique regulatory decision for our region. Workers are making their voices heard as the union representing laid-off Spokane occupational safety workers rallied outside HHS yesterday, calling on RFK Jr. to reinstate researchers who lost their positions. The city is taking steps to address traffic safety as fatal collisions continue to rise in 2025. New initiatives include "no turn on red" signs at high-use pedestrian crossings throughout downtown, with the City Council scheduled to have recently voted on an ordinance expanding these restrictions. Additionally, the Spokane Police Department has reinstated a Traffic Safety and Education Unit with officers dedicated to enforcing traffic laws. Mayor Brown has taken a stand against liquid waste transport through Spokane, according to a news release issued yesterday from the city. If you're looking for entertainment this weekend, "Riverdance" is celebrating its 30th anniversary with performances, continuing a legacy that has captivated audiences worldwide for three decades. Sports fans should note that Mt. Spokane is competing to win the Greater Spokane League's first fastpitch softball title in nearly 20 years at the State tournament.

The city is waking up to clear skies and a cool start, but things are heating up around town—so let’s dive into what’s happening in Spokane today and what you can look forward to. First, a quick update on recent headlines. Spokane residents are talking about a weekend fire that broke out at the Spokane Valley Mall. Fire investigators are still working to determine the cause, and thankfully no serious injuries have been reported, but several stores remain closed as cleanup continues. If you’re headed to the mall today, expect detours and some limited access as crews finish their work. In the Hillyard neighborhood, eight people were displaced after an apartment fire, and local support groups are rallying to provide temporary housing and supplies for those affected. Public safety is on a lot of minds this morning as Washington state just rolled out a major new law directing one hundred million dollars in grants to hire more police officers and boost community safety programs. Spokane officials say these funds could help fill critical gaps in local law enforcement and improve response times citywide. Another piece of legislation is increasing penalties for littering and delaying new plastic bag requirements, so you’ll see signs around town reminding everyone to keep our parks and streets clean as we move into summer. For a look at what’s new and happening, the Kettle Falls Historical Center is making headlines as it reopens after two years of closure due to flood damage. If you’re thinking about a short drive, it’s a perfect day-trip destination to connect with Inland Northwest history and check out their refreshed exhibits. Sports fans have something to cheer about today as Cheney High School brings a young and talented roster to the 3A boys state golf tournament. They’re hoping to bring home some hardware and add to the city’s growing list of teen sports achievements. On the arts and entertainment front, local venues and parks are gearing up for a summer filled with live music, food markets, and family-friendly activities. Check out Riverfront Park later today, where food trucks will be lining up for lunch hours and local musicians take the stage for the weekly Music in the Park series. Don’t forget, the Downtown Spokane Partnership is still running their parking meter rate forums. Businesses have been vocal about proposed increases, so if you want your voice heard, these meetings are open to the public. In national news impacting our community, Spokane leaders are voicing concerns after a Supreme Court decision that revokes deportation protections for Venezuelans. Advocacy groups are organizing an information session this evening at the community center for affected families and allies who want to get involved in supporting their neighbors.

Rain or shine, tens of thousands of people are expected to gather in downtown Spokane today for the annual Lilac Festival. It's one of the city's most cherished traditions, so be sure to stake out your spot early if you're planning to attend. In local political news, hunting advocates have filed a petition for the removal of four Washington Fish and Wildlife commissioners. This development comes amid ongoing debates about wildlife management policies in our region. Some disappointing financial news for Spokane as the Trump administration has canceled a $20 million climate change grant that was awarded to Gonzaga University and the city last year. In a related move, the administration has also withdrawn $48 million from the Spokane-Coeur d'Alene aerospace "tech hub" initiative. Sports fans, we have results from last night's WHL Championship game. The Medicine Hat Tigers defeated our Spokane Chiefs 4-2 to claim the title. Tough loss for our local team, but congratulations to them on a fantastic season. In more somber news, Spokane police are investigating a shooting and stabbing incident that occurred yesterday at the Hart Terrace apartments on the South Hill. The tragedy has left two people dead. Officers responded to multiple 911 calls around 5 PM yesterday. Also, three climbers have died after falling in Okanogan County, according to reports from KREM 2 News. On the infrastructure front, Avista has announced plans to bury power lines near Mika Peak, which should help improve service reliability in that area. City services update: yesterday was the final day to request a disposal pass through the City of Spokane, so if you missed that deadline, you'll need to make alternative arrangements. Earlier this week, the Spokane City Council voted 5-2 to relocate the John R. Monaghan Monument from the city's public right-of-way. For those traveling, be aware that there are several road projects underway across the city. Drivers are urged to plan for detours and alternate routes, particularly in high-traffic areas.

In statewide updates affecting Spokane, Governor Ferguson has just signed a new bill requiring speed-limiting devices for habitual speeders. What does that mean for you? It could make our roads a bit safer, cracking down on repeat offenders who push the limits too far. We’ll keep watching how that’s implemented throughout the city and county.

Federal authorities have just wrapped up a major operation in the Spokane area, with 21 individuals now facing federal charges.

The Justice Department announced these arrests on Thursday, May 8, marking a significant development in efforts to address criminal activity in our community. In downtown news, Spokane Police are investigating a stabbing incident that occurred yesterday at Riverfront Park. The incident took place near Mobius, where police cordoned off an area with crime scene tape.

Police are still searching for both the victim and suspect in this case, with a jacket collected as evidence from the scene. Meanwhile, in Moses Lake, police have arrested a man following a significant drug bust. After responding to a theft report at Walmart, officers searched the suspect's vehicle and discovered an alarming cache of illegal substances, including more than one pound of methamphetamine, 1.6 ounces of fentanyl, and approximately 200 fentanyl pills. A handgun was also recovered from the vehicle. The suspect has been booked into Grant County jail. For those looking for weekend activities, the Spokesman-Review has published their weekend guide in today's edition. The paper continues its tradition of providing comprehensive coverage of local news, sports, and community events for the Inland Northwest. Border Patrol has also made a notable arrest, taking into custody a man who now faces federal charges and possible deportation. Details on this case are still developing.

If you have an eye for art and an idea that celebrates Spokane, now is your chance to help beautify our streets in a way only locals can. Submissions will be open for several weeks, so get those creative juices flowing. In civic news, there’s movement on the city’s recreational landscape. Discussions continue about a possible expansion of the Dwight Merkel Sports Complex. If approved by voters through both the Park Levy and the School Bond measures, the complex could nearly double the field spaces for youth and adult sports by utilizing the former Albi Stadium site. This has big implications for local sports leagues and families, potentially opening up more access to play, train, and compete right here in the heart of Spokane. On a more somber note, the region joins the world in mourning the passing of Pope Francis, who died at the age of 88. Catholic and Jesuit communities across the Northwest are reflecting on his impact, honoring his legacy of compassion and reform. Locally, vigils and memorial masses are planned at several Spokane parishes tonight and throughout the week, offering a moment for residents to come together in remembrance. In community initiatives, Mayor Lisa Brown is encouraging Spokane residents to connect and get involved with city projects, whether that’s through neighborhood cleanups, local forums, or BlueSky, the city’s outreach platform. The Spokane Police Department continues its efforts to engage with the community too, recently seeking assistance in locating a missing person and requesting the public’s help regarding a recent incident at 808 West Sprague Avenue. As for things to do, check out the parks—now in full bloom—or make plans to catch a game or two at your local sports league. With the city pushing to expand recreational opportunities, there’s never been a better time to get active outdoors. And for those interested in the arts, keep an eye on downtown galleries and coffee shops featuring work from local artists, many of whom are participating in the design call for the city’s infrastructure project. That wraps up today’s local roundup. This has been Spokane Local Frequency. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.

We are kicking off the weekend with a roundup of what is happening in and around Spokane today. In the news, there is a developing story out of Spokane Valley as a man is suing the city after a recent incident where he was pulled from his car and hogtied in what authorities are calling a mix-up. The case is already sparking conversations about policing in the Valley and community oversight, so expect updates in the coming days as the legal process gets underway. Meanwhile, on the public safety front, the City of Spokane and Catholic Charities have partnered to dedicate more shelter beds specifically for transports by first responders. This move aims to get people in crisis off the streets and into safe spaces faster, particularly as the city contends with ongoing concerns about homelessness and public health. The opioid crisis remains top of mind, with both Spokane County and city leaders meeting this week to coordinate a more unified response. Officials continue to describe the situation as a crisis, and today’s discussions focus on how to better help those struggling with addiction while maintaining the safety and well-being of the wider community. In education and culture, budding jazz musicians are heading south to the Lionel Hampton Jazz Festival in Moscow, Idaho. This festival is a regional highlight each spring, providing young artists from Spokane the chance to showcase their talents and learn from some of the best in the business. For those looking for something to do today, there are plenty of options to enjoy Spokane’s springtime spirit. Outdoor enthusiasts can take advantage of the clear weather by hiking the trails of Riverside State Park or strolling through the blossoming Manito Park gardens. Over at the Garland Theater, families can catch the latest releases, but moviegoers are reminded to keep it civil following reports of rowdy viral challenges disrupting recent screenings. If you are interested in local sports, keep an eye out for updates from the Spokane Chiefs, as captain Berkly Catton continues to make headlines with his impressive play and leadership. And in nearby Othello, city planners are laying the groundwork for the community’s future by converting former farmland into a new water treatment facility to support the area’s rapid growth. Finally, a heartfelt happy birthday goes out to local engineer Jim Peterson, who turned 101 this week after a storied career ushering the U.S. Navy into the nuclear age. He says he has so much to be thankful for, and his perspective is a reminder to all of us to appreciate the contributions and wisdom of our older neighbors. That wraps up our Spokane Local Frequency for today. Whether you are enjoying local jazz, exploring the outdoors, or staying up to date with city news, we hope you make the most of your Saturday.

As Spokane wakes up today, strong northerly winds are sweeping across the city, so if you’re heading out, plan for gusty weather with wind speeds possibly reaching up to 45 miles per hour.

Tonight, music lovers can experience the Chamber Soirée with the Spokane Symphony at The Davenport, or head down to the Spokane Comedy Club for a set from Rachel Aflleje. Storytelling fans won’t want to miss PIVOT at the Washington Cracker Co. Building, where local voices share unforgettable tales in a lively, intimate setting. If you’re out with family, spring is in full bloom at Riverfront Park and Manito Park—perfect for a stroll between events. Looking ahead, keep an eye out for the Spokane Bike Swap this weekend if you’re ready to trade up your ride or pick up some new cycling gear, and families might want to plan for James and the Giant Peach at the Spokane Children’s Theatre beginning tomorrow. In sports news, the Dwight Merkel Sports Complex will soon receive its first life-saving AED, courtesy of Project 100, helping make Spokane’s community spaces even safer.

Just a few days ago, detectives identified the suspect in the shooting incident that tragically took the life of 13-year-old Gavin Looper[1]. The community's help is also needed in locating a missing 12-year-old female, and we urge anyone with information to come forward. On a different note, the City of Spokane has made significant progress in supporting its unhoused population. A new scattered site facility has been opened in collaboration with local partners to provide medical care and supportive services to those in need[1]. Additionally, the annual snapshot estimate of the local unhoused population is currently underway, aiming to better understand and address the issue. Now, let's shift gears to some fun activities you can enjoy in Spokane. Today, at Riverfront Park, it's Cheap Skate Tuesdays at the Numerica Skate Ribbon.

If you're looking to learn or improve your ice skating skills, lessons are available on select Saturdays, taught by the skilled coaches of Spokane Figure Skating Club. For families, there are plenty of activities to look forward to.
