This calendar is the place to find fun events happening throughout Grays Harbor County including Aberdeen, Hoquiam, Westport, Ocean Shores, Elma, Montesano and beyond.
Join us for dinner! This month’s topic is “Managing your Medications” and focuses on how people with chronic health conditions, and/or our aging population, often find their medicine cabinet full of different medications, all of which have different dosing instructions. Managing and tracking the different medications can become confusing, and can lead to dangerous situations if not done properly.
Please join the Elma Chamber of Commerce to honor Elma Citizens of the Year. Help recognize these special individuals who have given so much to the Elma Community.
Tickets include a prime rib and prawn dinner, silent auction, entertainment and presentation of awards. Entertainment is 6-7 p.m. by Ericka Corbin our Grays Harbor Voice star!
