It’s a beautiful spring day here in Spokane, with clear skies and morning temperatures in the low 30s, warming up to the low 60s this afternoon. If you’re planning to enjoy some outdoor activities, don’t forget to dress in layers to make the most of this sunny but cool day. Here’s what’s happening around town to keep you entertained and informed.

Protesting for change is happening right here in Spokane as part of the national Hands Off rally. Organizers are calling for justice and accountability in a mass mobilization at B.A. Clark Park on Division and Garland. The event kicks off this afternoon and is part of a larger movement advocating for democracy and community solidarity.

For sports fans, tonight marks opening day for the Spokane Indians at Avista Stadium. Baseball is back, and the Indians face off against the Everett AquaSox at 6:35 PM. With new stadium upgrades and a fireworks show planned after the game, this is a perfect family outing.
