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

The Fuchsia Fanciers, a Lewis County group and nonprofit gardening organization, is hosting a fuchsia plant sale on May 4th here at the Centralia Outlets.
From 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. near the Eddie Bauer and Polo Ralph Lauren stores, the Fuchsia Fanciers will display and sell a variety of fuchsia 2-inch starters, gallons, and hardies.
The group is one of 13 in the Pacific Northwest under the umbrella of the Northwest Fuchsia Society. The 26 members meet on the second Monday of each month at 7 p.m. at Fort Borst Park. The Fuchsia Fanciers aim to educate themselves and others about the growing and showing of fuchsias.

A deeper Look into the Past (on how the buildings help us see our past). Jean is always a pure delight.
