Bellingham Local Update: DUI Crackdown, Swing Dancing, and Historic Museum Tours
Good morning, this is your Bellingham Local Frequency for Friday, March 7, 2025.
Bellingham police are reporting a concerning rise in DUI incidents, with over 80 arrests made since the start of the year. This includes two recent collisions in early March, one involving a taxi that collided with a slow-moving train near the Bellingham Ferry Terminal. In response, officers are preparing for a high-visibility DUI enforcement campaign, with emphasis patrols targeting impaired drivers as St. Patrick's Day approaches.
In local entertainment news, the FireHouse Arts & Events Center is hosting a Swing Connection Concert tonight from 7 to 9 PM. Music lovers can enjoy an evening of lively tunes and dancing. Meanwhile, at the Mount Baker Theatre, Sugar: A Cabaret is presenting "Sugar's Big Top" at 7:30 PM, promising a night of dazzling performances and spectacle.
For those interested in local history, the Whatcom Museum is offering their regular Old City Hall History Tours on Sunday from 1 to 2 PM. Visitors can explore the historic building, including a look at the basement's jail rooms and a padded cell from the prohibition era.
Looking ahead to next week, the Bellingham Music Club is hosting a special matinee program on Wednesday, February 5th, featuring music from Scandinavia. Violinist Grant Donnellan and pianist Judith Widrig will present a curated selection of works by well-known composers and lesser-known women composers at Trinity Lutheran Church.
In community news, Make.Shift Art Space continues to offer their Free Fridays Open Art Studio from 1 to 3 PM. It's a great opportunity for locals to get creative with various art supplies and tools available.
For those seeking relaxation, there's a Deep Relaxation and Intro to Yi Ren Qigong session happening next week. It's an excellent chance to de-stress and refresh your creative spirit.
Weather-wise, we're expecting a series of storms to move through the area over the weekend, bringing heavy rain at times. An atmospheric river is forecasted to impact the region, so be prepared for wet conditions if you're heading out.
Lastly, a reminder that the deadline is approaching for Washington state financial assistance for property owners impacted by the November windstorms. If your primary home suffered major damage or was destroyed, you may qualify for aid.
This has been Bellingham Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
