Good morning, this is your Spokane Local Frequency for Thursday, September 25. Let’s kick off your day with everything you need to know across Spokane. City leaders are calling on federal lawmakers to advocate for Spokane residents this week, pushing to ensure that our voices and needs are represented at the national level. Meanwhile, Mayor Brown has laid out steps to close the city’s budget deficit, balancing careful spending with ongoing investments in community safety. If you’re driving on North Ash Street, expect lane reductions as road crews tackle improvements, and West Francis Avenue’s water project has resumed, so give yourself a little extra time during commutes.
School is officially back in session, so remember that school zones are being strictly enforced. Whether you’re a parent walking kids to class or just driving through, please slow down, stay alert, and keep Spokane’s kids safe. The Spokane Police Department is seeking help locating an assault suspect as well as a missing endangered adult male, so keep an eye out for updates from SPD and contact them if you have information. In positive news, a brief standoff in West Spokane ended peacefully, showcasing the collaborative efforts between officers and the community. If you’re interested in city history, community members are gathering to place a marker and commemorate Spokane’s railroad legacy, helping us remember the tracks that helped build our town.
This weekend, get ready for a downtown treat—the first-ever Mid-Autumn Moon Festival launches on Saturday. Head over to Wall Street between 1:30 and 4:30 for vibrant dance, live music, martial arts, artisan vendors, and authentic Chinese cuisine, including traditional mooncakes. It’s a wonderful chance to celebrate unity, gratitude, and Spokane’s growing cultural diversity. If you’ve got a sweet tooth, there’s an afternoon cake lovers’ event coming up Sunday, bringing together bakers and dessert fans at Riverfront Park. You can also check out skating and music Friday night at Gesa Pavilion for a festive end to summer.
Looking ahead to October, the city marks Domestic Violence Action Month with events and activities raising awareness. There’s a fall celebration on the 4th, plus health-focused fundraisers for diabetes research and the annual Spokane Marathon on October 12, which winds through some of our region’s most scenic trails. Art, music, and outdoor fun round out the calendar this weekend, and the historic Corbin Art Center is open for tours if you want to connect with Spokane’s past.
Remember to stay informed, look out for changes around construction and public safety, and get involved in our city’s dynamic lineup of gatherings. This has been Spokane Local Frequency. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
