This community events calendar is the place to find fun activities and things to do throughout Lewis County, including Centralia, Chehalis and beyond.
Willamette Valley Wool will be at the store with a trunk show! Lynette has beautiful yarns and fibers!
Two local designers (Jennifer Denney and Rachel McSweeney) will also be at the store with patterns for you to purchase and samples for you to touch and feel. There will be a free knit pattern or a free crochet pattern for you at each store.
There will be a $35 gift certificate given away each day of the yarn crawl at each store. If you go to all 8 stores, you will receive a “finishing” prize and be entered for an additional $100 gift certificate (drawing to be held on Monday, Oct 2).
Dine on wonderful foods from our local farms as you celebrate a season of growing, harvesting and friendship. Chef Jay Ryan cooks up a meal containing delicious ingredients from many of the Community Farmers Market at Chehalis’ vendors.
The dinner is buffet-style. A no-host bar is also available, and there will be a dessert auction and silent auction. Proceeds from the event benefit the Community Farmers Market.

Who will step forward to help plucky Penelope Fortune save Critter Crossing’s Orphan School and Old Folks Home from these evil villains? The Roxy Players follow this classic melodrama with vaudeville-style music and comedy.
