Maple Street and Marie T. Matteson MS LMP have joined forces to give you a great gift idea, and an opportunity to help the families of the fallen officers of the Lakewood Police Department.
Since she has been involved with EMS for nearly 20 years, she thought it only fitting to give to the police guild [...]

It’s that time of year again, when the entire town is S.O.L. on canned pumpkin. #bhampumpkinhunt to the rescue!

You see the entertainment value here, right? Two media heavyweights in a PR pirouette, while Bud and Dan have a contest to show how much water they can drink? I know, of all the priorities for our region to focus our energy and resources… but we live in the City of Subdued Excitement.

On Monday, August 31, 2009, at 8:30 in the morning, the first (and perhaps only) Brett Allsop Memorial Bagel Toast Happened. The proceeds of $100 for just an hour on a sidewalk went to the Brett Allsop Memorial Scholarship for Bellingham Dollar for Scholars.
