Razor Clam Dig @ Washington Beaches | Washington | United States

State shellfish managers have approved a series of razor clam digs that starts Monday (March 16) on evening tides, then switches to morning tides Saturday (March 21) for four more days of digging.

The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) approved the digs after marine toxin tests showed the clams are safe to eat.

 

This is the last chance for diggers to use their 2014–15 fishing licenses, which expire March 31, Ayres said. Beginning April 1, a 2015–16 fishing license will be required. A list of proposed upcoming digs is expected to be announced in the coming weeks.

“Indian Jones and the Temple of Doom” @ 7th Street Theatre
Mar 20 @ 7:30 pm – 9:30 pm
"Indian Jones and the Temple of Doom" @ 7th Street Theatre | Hoquiam | Washington | United States

The kind of epic movie adventure that begs to be seen on a theater-sized screen, “Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom” is the next big-screen offering at the historic 7th Street Theatre in downtown Hoquiam.

Academy Award winner in 1985 for Best Visual Effects, this second of four entries in the ‘Indy’ series is set in 1935, and positioned as a prequel to the original blockbuster hit, 1981’s “Raiders of the Lost Ark.” In ‘Temple,’ Harrison Ford is teamed with Kate Capshaw, who has also been known as Mrs. Steven Spielberg since 1991.

The film is loaded with narrow escapes and huge action pieces, including the now-famous sequence of the wild mine-car chase, as well as some not-for-the-squeamish images involving human sacrifice.

Doors open at 7:00 p.m. for the 7:30 p.m. showings. Advance tickets are available at Harbor Drug in Hoquiam, City Drug in Aberdeen and at www.brownpapertickets.com.
