This community events calendar is the place to find fun activities and things to do throughout Lewis County, including Centralia, Chehalis and beyond.

Write a novel in one month! Get started this November with National Novel Writing Month, a seat-of-your-pants writing adventure, and churn out a 50,000-word novel in 30 days. Come work on your novel every Saturday in November at the Chehalis library with the moral support of fellow wrimos. Snacks and coffee will be provided by the Friends of the Chehalis Timberland Library to help fuel creativity.
You are invited to learn to Square Dance with the Prairie Steppers starting Tuesday Sept. 10, 2018 and continuing on Tuesdays from 7:00 to 9:00 p.m. at the Oakview Grange, 2715 North Pearl Street in Centralia until December 17. Your first lesson is free, then just $2.50 per lesson taught by nationally known caller Don Wood.
Singles or couples are welcome. No partner needed. Square Dance attire not required but do wear comfortable shoes. Call Larry and Andrea Kershner at 360-273-6008 for more information. We invite you to join the FUN!
Join in a spirited book discussion of a selected title each month. New participants are always welcome! The November book is: “There There” by Tommy Orange. Copies are available at the Information Desk one month before the discussion.
This workshop by the Lewis County Genealogy Society will focus on finding information about ancestors who served in the US Military. Whether you’re just starting out or need help getting unstuck, bring your questions and get help from the professionals!

Join other volunteers to attack blackberry! This is WORK, but when you leave you know you have done something to help this riparian area along the Chehalis River. A healthy river in your backyard is worth a little work.
Coffee, water and snacks provided. Please dress for the weather, bring leather gloves if you have them. Suggested for 12-year-olds and up.
Join other book lovers for coffee and a chat about books. No assigned reading! You pick! Share what you’ve been reading lately and hear from others about what they’ve been reading. Discussion facilitated by Chehalis Timberland Library Staff.
We’re a newer club – Lewis County Rock and Gem Society. We meet second Tuesday of every month at 6:00 p.m. at Cowlitz Prairie Grange in Toledo on Jackson Hwy. We are family-oriented with a juniors program also. Bring your rock for show and tell, enjoy our monthly program, bid on something in our silent auction and bring a snack to share for break time. We have door prizes and try to go on field trips as often as we can. $10 for yearly membership for a single or $15 for a family
