Good morning, this is your Bellingham Local Frequency for October twenty-sixth, twenty twenty-five. As dawn breaks over the Salish Sea, let’s get you up to speed with all that’s happening in our corner of the Pacific Northwest, where community, nature, and a little drizzle never keep us from celebrating what makes Bellingham special.
If you heard sirens in your neighborhood last night or this morning, whatcom-news.com’s real-time fire and aid dispatch log reminds us that these calls are part of the daily rhythm in Bellingham, especially on blustery days. While our city hasn’t seen the dramatic outages battering Seattle’s grid, it’s always smart to stay alert—a reminder that winter’s windy moods aren’t far off, and preparedness keeps our community safer.
Today is a day for families, fun, and a little friendly fright. Harvest festivities are in full swing, with BelleWood Farms’ Pumpkin Patch open for everyone—corn mazes, fresh cider, and just the right blend of autumn chill and cozy community spirit make this a must-do for locals and visitors alike. Over at Home Farm Pumpkin Patch in Birch Bay, the free Kids Costume Weekend invites kids to dress up and play in the fields, while BelleWood’s own Harvest Festival offers farm-to-fork delights, crafts, and u-pick treasures—check their site for the scoop on hours and activities, and always confirm before you go, as details can change at short notice.
For science lovers, the Marine Life Center on Bellingham’s waterfront is open for free daily exploration—perfect for curious minds of all ages. Meanwhile, across town at the Whatcom Museum, the FIG Artists Corner and FIG Studio invite families to unleash their creativity, and from one to three this afternoon, Audubon at the Museum brings North Cascades Audubon Society experts to the John M. Edson Hall of Birds—join them to learn about migration, the birds in peril, and how our local ecosystems are faring.
If you’re gearing up for Halloween, the Bellingham YMCA is hosting a free Halloween celebration with games and activities, and Boo at Bloedel is a family favorite with spooky fun and even a sensory-friendly hour for kids who need a calmer environment. Later, swap spooks for skates with a Halloween-themed evening session at Bellingham Ice Arena—costumes encouraged! For movie fans, Doctober continues at the Pickford Film Center until the end of the day, so catch a standout documentary while there’s still time.
Sports fans, you can’t overlook the Vikings’ four-peat at the GNAC Cross Country Championships. The Western Washington University men’s and women’s teams both swept the titles yesterday—congratulations to our local athletes for showing the PacWest what a real Northwest dynasty looks like.
For those wanting to dig a little deeper, the Whatcom Mountain Bike Coalition is inviting families to hit the trails at their Youth Dig & Ride Day—perfect for teaching the next generation to love and care for our wild backyard. And if you’re looking to give back, Whatcom Falls Park is hosting a Make a Difference Day and Arbor Day event—volunteers are needed to plant native trees, remove invasive weeds, and restore salmon habitat, proving that ordinary people can make an extraordinary impact on the place we call home.
As the wind tugs at our coats and the rain just barely holds off, today is a reminder of all the ways this city shows up for itself: through sports, art, service, and play. Whether you’re picking pumpkins or planting trees, watching a film or flying down a trail, you’re part of what makes Bellingham hum. Let’s savor these moments, look out for each other, and remember—our stories today are shaping tomorrow’s memories.
