Attend and dedicate your day to celebrating the rejuvenating power of water as a source of healing and community. Have the opportunity to grab a cup of coffee and leisurely stroll through the vibrant park grounds while enjoying the autumn hues and live music on the main stage.

All famillies are encouraged to attend since there are activities suitable for all age groups. Kids can take part in art workshops and face painting, while individuals of all ages are welcome to engage in an educational session presented by the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife, such as discussing the resurgence of salmon or observing a stone carving demonstration. The event also boasts the presence of local artists, crafters, food vendors, and a fun Stream Team scavenger hunt.
