    Scariest Five Minutes in Redmond? Haunted House & Best Bakery on the Eastside
    2026/10/20
    📰 This Week in RedmondOctober 20, 2026🌲 Redmond Just Certified Two Trails Where Walking Fast Is the Wrong MoveForest therapy, also called forest bathing, is the opposite of a hike. There's no mileage goal. You move slowly and notice what you see, hear, and smell. Redmond now has two trails certified through the Association of Nature and Forest Therapy, and OneRedmond calls them Washington's first. The Lowland to Upland Loop is at Farrel-McWhirter Park, 19545 NE Redmond Rd. The Tree Frog Loop is at Redmond Watershed Preserve, 21760 NE Novelty Hill Rd., and it's ADA accessible. The self-guided program is free. Allow 60 to 90 minutes. The link's in the show notes and in the newsletter. https://oneredmond.org/forest-bathing🎃 The Scariest Five Minutes in Redmond Are Happening at a Community CenterThis weekend on Saturday, the Redmond Community Center at Marymoor Village runs a staged haunted house.

    Chicken Poop Bingo, a Brunch You Eat With Your Hands & Best Brewery on the Eastside?
    2026/10/15
    🍽️ Leave the Fork at Home: Today's the Last Day to Book This BrunchToday is your last chance to book a brunch where you leave the fork at home. Fork & Spoke, the restaurant inside the Hilton Garden Inn at 16630 Redmond Way, is hosting a Filipino-Hawaiian Kamayan Feast this weekend on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Kamayan means eating with your hands, so the food goes down on banana leaves and everyone digs in together. Think loco moco, huli huli chicken, crispy pork leg and grilled tuna collar. A non-alcoholic drink is included, and desserts cost extra. Reservations close today, so don't wait until tonight. The link is in the show notes and in the newsletter. https://www.eventbrite.com/e/pop-up-filipino-hawaiian-kamayan-feast-fork-spoke-redmondseattle-tickets-2000209303872🐔 This Weekend, a Chicken in Redmond Decides Who Wins BingoThis weekend, a chicken in Redmond decides who wins bingo. Chicken Poop Bingo is one of the games at The Red Barn Farm's Fall Festival, this weekend on Saturday and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at 5703 208th Ave NE. Not into waiting on a chicken? Try rubber axe throwing for kids, real axe throwing for ages 13 and up, or roping a practice cow. Tickets are $12 for adults and $20 for kids 1 to 17, and kids get a bag of feed for the animals. Last entry is 3 p.m., and spots sell out. The ticket link is in the show notes and in the newsletter. https://fareharbor.com/embeds/book/redbarnfarm/items/652082/?full-items=yes🐝 Line Dance Tonight at the Brewery That Names Its Beers After BeesTonight you can learn to line dance at a brewery that names its beers after bees. Watts Brewing founder Evan Watts started brewing with a turkey fryer in his driveway. His grandfather started the family bee business more than 50 years ago, which is why the taproom pours beers like The Leafcutter. Every Thursday at 7 p.m., Wildflower Dance Co. teaches Boots & Brews line dancing at Watts, 15510 Woodinville-Redmond Rd NE, Suite E110, just over the line in Woodinville. It's $10 at the door, and all ages and skill levels are welcome. Get there a few minutes early, because class starts right at 7.💀 Walk Into a Mezcal Bar Tonight, Walk Out With a Bowl You MadeTonight you can walk into a mezcal bar and walk out with a bowl you made yourself. Vibrant Moments Art Studio is hosting a Fall Harvest and Día de los Muertos Plaster Bowl Workshop from 6 to 9 p.m. at Caadxi Mezcalería, 8300 160th Ave NE, Suite 130. You'll decorate a ceramic bowl with handmade plaster pieces, like pumpkins, corn and leaves, or marigolds and skulls, then paint it. Tickets are $72 and cover all materials, step-by-step help, and a mocktail or appetizer on the house. No experience needed. The ticket link is in the show notes and in the newsletter. https://www.eventbrite.com/e/fall-harvest-dia-de-los-muertos-plaster-bowl-workshop-tickets-1999977615887🃏 Want the New Lorcana Cards Before They're Even in Stores?This weekend on Saturday, Disney Lorcana players can get their hands on the new Hyperia City set before it hits store shelves. Marymoor Games is hosting a sealed prerelease from 2 to 6 p.m. at 7325 166th Ave NE, Suite F150, in Redmond Town Center. It costs $45. Sealed means everyone opens fresh packs at the table and builds a deck from whatever they pull, so a giant card collection at home doesn't give anybody an edge. It's capped at 16 players, so sign up before you head over. The signup link is in the show notes and in the newsletter. https://tcg.ravensburgerplay.com/events/1016579🐦 The Seabird With Flaming Red Feet That Most Birders Walk Right PastThere's a seabird on Puget Sound beaches with bright red feet and a name that sounds like a pigeon, and most birders walk right past it. On Wednesday, author Maria Mudd Ruth makes the case for a second look. She's studied Pigeon Guillemots as a volunteer community scientist since 2013, and her new book is The Bird with Flaming Red Feet. Eastside Audubon is hosting the talk at the Redmond Library, 15990 NE 85th St., from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. Registration isn't required, but Eastside Audubon appreciates it. The link is in the show notes and in the newsletter. https://www.eastsideaudubon.org/calendar/2026/10/21/the-bird-with-flaming-red-feet-an-evening-with-author-maria-mudd-ruth🏛️ Redmond's Deciding How to Spend the Next Two Years.

    Costumed Dogs Take Over Downtown, Pony Rides, Shakespeare & Best Tapas Bar in Redmond?
    2026/10/13
    🐶 Costumed Dogs, a Parade, and a Rescue Pup Who Might Go Home With YouPicture a pirate, a bumblebee, and a hot dog, all on leashes, marching through Redmond Town Center. That's the 3rd annual Redmond Howl-O-Ween Pup Parade and Party, this weekend on Saturday. Check in at noon at the Archer Hotel, 7200 164th Ave NE, for the pre-party. The parade steps off at 1 p.m., and there's a costume contest with prizes. From 2 to 4 p.m., the after-party at the Hilton Garden Inn, 16630 Redmond Way, has snacks, drinks, and adoptable dogs from Motley Zoo. You might go home with one more dog than you brought. Dogs need to be leashed, friendly, and vaccinated. Registration and costume-judging details are in the show notes and the newsletter. https://www.eventbrite.com/e/3rd-annual-howl-o-ween-tickets-2000052858941🏫 These UW Students Have to Badge Through Microsoft Security to Get to ClassAbout 150 University of Washington grad students just got a very strange new commute. Their program, the Global Innovation Exchange, or GIX, now meets inside Building 92 on Microsoft's Redmond campus. That building started out as Eddie Bauer's headquarters. Microsoft spent $42 million turning 48,500 square feet of it into classrooms, and UW gets the space for 15 years with no base rent. Both sides say Microsoft gets no say in what's taught. It's an unusual setup for a public university, and the Daily UW dug into it. Their story is in the show notes and the newsletter. https://www.dailyuw.com/article/uw-moves-inside-microsoft-s-redmond-campus-testing-the-boundaries-of-corporate-partnership-20261009🎃 Your Kid Gets a Pony Ride and a Pumpkin, You Get Fresh CiderAt some point this Saturday, your kid is going to make butter and then eat it on a biscuit. That's one stop at the Farrel-McWhirter Park Harvest Festival, this weekend on Saturday at 19545 Redmond Road. There's also a tractor-pulled wagon ride, a forest trail scavenger hunt with a prize, farm animals to visit, and a spooky potion to mix. Kids 12 and under get a pony ride and a pumpkin to take home. Grown-ups get the fresh-pressed cider. Pick a session, 10 a.m. to noon or 1 to 3 p.m. Passes are $30 to $36, for ages 2 and up. Registration is in the show notes and the newsletter. https://www.redmond.gov/Calendar.aspx?EID=3559🎭 Can One Cast Pull Off Three Shakespeare Comedies in a Single Night?Technically Thespians is betting they can. Their show, Love & Misdirection, packs fast, stripped-down versions of Much Ado About Nothing, As You Like It, and A Midsummer Night's Dream into one evening. It has three directors and the same cast in all three. If you never finished these plays in high school, this is your shortcut: three plays in about two and a half hours. It's at SecondStory Repertory, 7325 166th Ave NE, Suite F250, in Redmond Town Center. Shows are Friday at 7 p.m., then this weekend on Saturday at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. Tickets are in the show notes and the newsletter. https://www.technicallythespians.com/love-and-misdirection-fall-2026☕ The Coffee's on the House. The Catch Is a Trash Bag.This weekend on Sunday, SoulFood CoffeeHouse is trading coffee for cleanup. Walk around, pick up litter, and they'll pour you a free 16-ounce drip coffee or tea. It's called the Walk & Talk Litter Pickup Party, so plan on chatting while you clean. Meet at 11 a.m. at SoulFood, 15748 Redmond Way. It runs until 2 p.m. They supply the bags, so just bring gloves and a grabber if you have them. It happens the second-to-last Sunday of every month, so if you like it, you've got a standing date.📝 Redmond's Poetry Night Turns 20, and It's Bringing a Bonus PoetSoulFood started a poetry night back in July 2006. It's still going, now in its 20th year, and Thursday's lineup comes with an extra. There are usually two featured readers. This time there are three: Katy Ellis, Susan Landgraf, and Cindy Veach of MoonPath Poets. They read first. After a short break, the mic opens up to anyone. Got a poem sitting in a drawer? Sign up when you get there and bring three or four minutes of it. It's 6 to 8 p.m. at SoulFood CoffeeHouse, 15748 Redmond Way, and admission is free.Simply Leak DetectionA lot of people put off calling about a leak because they're scared of what it'll cost.
