Happy Labor Day!

Bellingham Dental Group would like to wish everyone a happy and safe Labor Day. For many, Labor Day weekend marks the last long weekend of Summer. One last chance to enjoy the beautiful outdoors  and local scenery with friends and loved ones before Fall sets in and all of the students begin another school year. But let us not forget that Labor Day, the first Monday in September, is a creation of the labor movement and is dedicated to the social and economic achievements of American workers. It constitutes a yearly national tribute to the contributions workers have made to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of our country.

While Summer may be coming to an end, there are still many fun local activities available to get in that last bit of fun in the sun. San Juan Cruises still has a few dates left on their Summer calendar for evening wine and brewery cruises on Bellingham Bay, including their Oktoberfest cruise late in September which features a variety of fall and harvest beers from Boundary Bay Brewery, as well as delicious food.

This Friday, don’t miss Rooftop Cinema at the Parkade. Pickford Film Center and 92.9 KISM present a night of fantastic film. There’s no better view downtown than from the top story of the downtown Parkade on Commercial Street; it’s a 360 view of our beautiful city and the perfect backdrop for a film. This Friday will be the final showing of the year, featuring the 1986 film True Stories.

Starting on the 11th, the Washington State Fair will be taking place in Puyallup, WA. The largest single attraction held annually in the state of Washington, the Washington State Fair continually ranks as one of the largest fairs in the world. Hosting a massive array of concerts, rodeos, rides, games, exhibits and vendors, the fair has something of interest for everyone.

This year, sci-fi fans won’t want to miss Star Trek: The Exhibition. Boasting one of the largest collections of authentic Star Trek props, costumes and artifacts in the world, Star Trek: The Exhibition allows die hard fans and novices alike to explore the worlds, science and characters that made Star Trek a pop culture phenomenon. Pose in front of an impressively sized replica of the U.S.S. Enterprise, view one-of-a-kind displays, investigate interactive kiosks and partake in rare photo opportunities. Among the main attractions of The Exhibition is the opportunity to explore a full scale mock up of the bridge of the U.S. Enterprise and sit in the captain’s chair where Captain Kirk commanded the legendary U.S.S. Enterprise. Set course for the Washington State Fair to boldly go where no one has gone before.
