Each spring, hundreds of thousands of shorebirds stop to rest and feed in Grays Harbor estuary on their migration northward. Coming from as far south as Argentina, these Arctic-bound shorebirds are among the world’s greatest migrants. Some birds travel over 15,000 miles round trip! Tens of thousands of shorebirds feed on the open mudflats in the estuary. This concentration of birds offers people a great chance to view a number of shorebird species, and with luck, to see the birds fly together in beautiful formations while trying to escape the fastest creature on earth, the Peregrine Falcon.

What better way to celebrate the return of hundreds of thousands of shorebirds than by lacing up your shoes and running through the streets of Hoquiam. With a race shirt and a goodie bag for those who pre-register, this race welcomes both runners and walkers who enjoy getting out and running as thousands of migrating shorebirds and hawks fly overhead. Mostly flat and weaving through the city and near Bowman Field, those who participate in this run will not only get fresh air and a great experience, but will also have a deeper connection with the city and with the Grays Harbor Shorebird Festival. Fun for all ages, this run shouldn’t be missed.

Despite being overlooked by the Oscars, Preston was hugely popular as con man “Professor Harold Hill,” who finds himself ultimately unable to con the power of true love. She appears in the form of “Marian the Librarian,” played by Shirley Jones, winner of the Best Supporting Actress Oscar just a year earlier for “Elmer Gantry.” Also notable in the cast is a very young Ron Howard. And with funny-man Buddy Hackett on board as the Professor’s sidekick, the film offers more light comedy that the stage original.
Based on the long-running Broadway musical by Meredith Wilson, the film version is freed from the stage and uses eight different Warner Brothers studio locations to create “River City, Iowa.” The movie is a terrific example of Hollywood’s golden era of musicals, with vibrant color saturating the screen.
Advance tickets are available online at www.brownpapertickets.com and at Harbor Drug in Hoquiam and City Drug in Aberdeen.
