Harbor Strong Flood Relief Walk and Cleanup @ Domino's Pizza
Jan 10 @ 9:00 am – 3:00 pm
Harbor Strong Flood Relief Walk and Cleanup @ Domino's Pizza | Hoquiam | Washington | United States

Floods and mudslides have done great damage to parts of Aberdeen and Hoquiam, and in their aftermath, left a mess of debris and severely flood damaged homes and businesses.

On Saturday we join hands and take to the hardest hit neighborhoods to clean up debris and network with people who need help the most! We are Harbor Strong!

This relief walk is twofold:

1. Cleaning up debris and taking back our streets.

2. Organizing immediate help for friends and neighbors who have had their homes and businesses damaged or destroyed. [Demolition etc.]

Meet at Domino’s in Hoquiam at 9am and bring gloves, garbage bags and tools for safe clean up. We will get organized and immediately get to work!

All we ask are your hands and your heart, but if you can volunteer other things like tools, trucks, trailers, bottled water, hugs, etc. please post on the event wall so we can contact you.

Were you personally affected by flooding or a slide?

Do you or somebody you know need help?

Please post what you need on the wall.

We will have free lunch for volunteers, and ambitious as it may sound, wrap things up in the afternoon to watch the Seahawks embarrass the Carolina Panthers!

“What Dreams May Come” @ 7th Street Theatre
Jan 23 @ 7:30 pm
"What Dreams May Come" @ 7th Street Theatre | Hoquiam | Washington | United States

The late Robin Williams stars in ”What Dreams May Come,” a dramatic, emotional and visually stunning movie that takes the viewer on a metaphysical journey through heaven and hell as it wrestles with love, eternity and the human soul. The 1998 film is the next big screen offering at the historic 7th Street Theatre in downtown Hoquiam.

Williams, an Academy Award winner for “Good Will Hunting,” plays a man who dies and finds himself in a heaven more amazing than he could have ever dreamed, in scenes that are visually stunning, especially on the big screen. However, when he learns that his wife killed herself after his death and went to hell, he decides to risk eternity in hades for the chance that he will be able to bring her back to heaven.

The movie also stars Cuba Gooding, Jr., Academy Award winner for “Jerry McGuire,” Annabella Sciorra and Max von Sydow.

Razor Clam Dig @ Washington Beaches
Jan 30 @ 3:45 pm
Razor Clam Dig @ Washington Beaches | Washington | United States

Diggers will have a chance to spice up their Super Bowl parties with some fresh razor clams during a dig beginning Jan. 30 on several ocean beaches.

The Washington Department of Fish & Wildlife (WDFW) approved the opening, which runs through Feb. 6, after marine toxin test results showed the clams are safe to eat.

“Razor clam dip makes a scrumptious Super Bowl snack,” Ayres said. “Diggers can fill their buckets with clams Friday and Saturday ahead of the big game.”

Razor clam recipes, including for clam dip, are available on WDFW’s webpage here.

Several beaches will be open – but likely a little quiet – on Super Bowl Sunday, providing lots of elbow room for diggers who aren’t football fans, Ayres said.

Under state law, diggers are required to keep the first 15 clams they dig. Each digger’s clams must be kept in a separate container.

Upcoming digs are scheduled on the following dates, beaches and low tides:

  • Jan. 30, Friday; 3:43 p.m., 0.5 feet Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Mocrocks
  • Jan. 31, Saturday; 4:32 p.m., 0.2 feet, Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Mocrocks and Copalis
  • Feb. 1, Sunday; 5:15 p.m., 0.0 feet, Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Mocrocks
  • Feb. 2, Monday; 5:53 p.m., -0.1 feet, Long Beach, Twin Harbors
  • Feb. 3, Tuesday; 6:27 p.m., -0.1 feet, Long Beach, Twin Harbors
  • Feb. 4, Wednesday; 6:59 p.m., 0.0 feet, Long Beach, Twin Harbors
  • Feb. 5, Thursday; 7:30 p.m., 0.2 feet, Long Beach, Twin Harbors
  • Feb. 6, Friday; 8:00 p.m., 0.5 feet, Long Beach, Twin Harbors
