Good morning, this is your Spokane Local Frequency for March 13, 2025. We've got a packed day of events and news to share with you, so let's dive right in.
The City of Spokane is kicking off a major construction project today to replace a 30-inch water main along North Freya Street in northeast Spokane. Drivers should expect some delays in the area as work gets underway. In other infrastructure news, the eastbound lanes of West Wellesley Avenue between North Maple Street and North Monroe Street will be closed starting at 6 PM on Saturday for water main repairs, so plan your weekend routes accordingly.
For those looking for some entertainment tonight, comedian Sheng Wang will be performing at the Martin Woldson Theater at the Fox. If you're in the mood for some networking, the Spokane Community Business Network is hosting their March event at Jack & Dan's Bar & Grill from 11:30 AM to 1:30 PM. It's a great opportunity to connect with local professionals and expand your business contacts.
In city government news, the Spokane City Council is considering eliminating height restrictions for parts of downtown. This could potentially reshape the city's skyline and impact future development in the area.
For our food lovers out there, local food banks are facing potential funding cuts at both the state and federal levels. This comes at a time when demand for their services has increased by about 25% compared to previous years. If you're able, consider donating or volunteering at your local food bank to help support those in need.
Looking ahead to the weekend, don't forget about the lunar eclipse that will be visible across North America tonight. It's a great opportunity to step outside and witness a celestial event.
For those planning ahead, the Spokane Motorcycle Show is coming up from March 14th to 16th at the Spokane County Fair & Expo Center. It's the 20th annual event and promises to be a treat for motorcycle enthusiasts.
Lastly, if you're feeling lucky, Riverfront Park is hosting a special event on March 15th where you can hunt for one of 500 gold coins hidden throughout the park. Find one, and you'll get a free ride on the Looff Carrousel or Numerica SkyRide.
