Good morning, this is your Spokane Local Frequency for Monday, August 4th, 2025. 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. Stay tuned, explore the farmer’s markets, and if you want to check out something new, Scale House Market has you covered with local products year-round.
This has been Spokane Local Frequency. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
