The most recent issue of AAA Journey Magazine found my mailbox today. I was happy to see two of our fall events featured in their calendar:
Cranberrian Fair
10/10–10/11 Ilwaco
The celebration of all things cranberry includes live music, an arts and crafts show, bog tours and other activities at the Columbia Pacific Heritage Museum and the Cranberry Museum. (360) 642-3446
One Sky, One World Kite Festival
10/10–10/11 Long Beach
One of numerous such gatherings taking place around the world, people are invited to fly kites as part of an international show of support for peace and global understanding. (360) 642-4020
They missed a couple favorites, however. The Wild Mushroom Celebration runs from October 15 through November 15 and features locally-harvested fungi at restaurants, inns and bed and breakfasts on the Peninsula. Water Music Festival brings world-class entertainment to our beach the second weekend of October each year. In fact, 2 weekends ago, we enjoyed Jazz & Oysters in Oysterville, a fundraiser for the fall events. This year’s Water Music Festival features performances by Sans Souci, Kim Angelis and the Bohemians, Alpin Hong and the Augustana Jazz Quartet.
Of course, there is the Slow Drag at the Port of Ilwaco and the Rod Run to the End of the World in September, and October also brings Oktoberfest and the Peninsula Arts Association Show.
