In The Know: Thurston Talk

Have you heard about Thurston Talk? It is a local news source that features the new and noteable openings, events, and news in Thurston County not always covered by the other news sources.



You might find out about a bike race, a new yogurt shop, a fire downtown, or a wine tasting. (All of the stuff you are really interested in.)



Stay tuned for an article by yours truly about shopping and eating in downtown Olympia. Woo hoo!

From the Boys and Girls Club of Thurston County:

"We are thrilled to announce more than 900 people attended our breakfast this morning and contributed $178,000 -- $100,000 of which has been matched by our generous matching partners. Those gifts, combined with $83,000 in sponsorships, totals $361,000 in much needed funding for the kids in our community."



Woo hoo Thurston County! It was inspiring to see some of the kids there at the breakfast. The skills they are learning are invaluable. And you know I have a soft spot for the kids....

Attending the breakfast got me all pumped up for the Big Brothers Big Sisters auction on November 5th. (I am helping with the planning.) It will be "An Evening in Tuscany" that is not to be missed. Get ready.
