First up, if you are looking to get involved in shaping the future of Whatcom County, the County Council is meeting today at their regular spot, 311 Grand Avenue, with options for both in-person and online participation. Public comment periods are scheduled, so if you have thoughts on local issues or upcoming planning changes like the county’s comprehensive plan updates or growth projections, today’s your chance to speak up and make your voice heard.
On the arts front, there is still time for local teachers to apply for a unique opportunity. The Whatcom Museum, in partnership with regional museums and the National Gallery of Art, is inviting K-12 teachers from Whatcom and Skagit counties to apply for an art education conference happening later this year. The deadline to apply is June 30. Ten lucky teachers will be selected, with all expenses paid, to attend this conference on teaching the whole student through art. It is a great professional development opportunity for anyone looking to bring more creativity into local classrooms.
Heads up for book lovers and baseball fans: this Wednesday, the Bellingham Bells are hosting Library Card Night at Joe Martin Field. Show your library card at the gate for a free ticket to the game against the Wenatchee AppleSox. Gates open at 5:30 and first pitch is at 6:35. It’s a great way to celebrate summer reading and enjoy a community evening at the ballpark.
In city news, crews are staying busy with summer construction projects, so keep an eye out for detours and give workers extra space. And good news for drivers: after several weeks of cleanup, Chuckanut Drive is reopening today after more than 3,600 tons of debris were removed from the area. Expect normal traffic flow to resume and enjoy the iconic route just in time for summer adventures.
On the public safety front, the city is continuing to address recent incidents with an increased police presence in response to two arrests following drive-by shootings here in Bellingham. Authorities are encouraging residents to stay alert and report suspicious activity as they work to keep neighborhoods safe.
One more important reminder: a countywide burn ban remains in effect until September 15th. Please refrain from outdoor burning to prevent wildfires as conditions dry out.
That’s a wrap for your local roundup today. Be sure to check out council meetings, grab your library card for the ballgame, and take advantage of the reopening of Chuckanut Drive. This has been Bellingham Local Frequency. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
