Then we head up river where we drop into a very mellow section of the Yakima River. After a few miles, we hop out and have a gourmet lunch made by Chef Kevin & his crew at @thecanyonrivergrill. Then it’s back on the boards for 6 more miles on the river - to use our new skills & enjoy some of the most beautiful scenery in @yakimavalley. At the end of our river adventure, we pull out right across the street from the lake where we started… and after a short walk over to the lake house, we all will enjoy appetizers and great ice cold beverages lake side from @tietonciderworks & @varietalbeerco
We are the only outfit and coaches that offer clinics, private lessons &guided yours on the Yakima River… and we would love to give you the skills & confidence you need to get you out on adventures of your own!

1801 Birchfield Rd, Yakima, WA 98901
We’ve got a double release, it’s summer, and we haven’t hung out in a big way in over a year…. So we’re throwing a party! We’re releasing our first canned kettle sour, Hot Tub Lifeguard and getting Raging Ditch Dry-Hopped Blonde back on tap… so to celebrate, we had to throw a Blonde Lifeguard Party. That makes sense, right? Wear a blonde wig and some lifeguard gear if you’ve got it and call it a Baywatch Party if you want. If we’re going to be totally honest, we haven’t fully thought this theme through. But we’ll have beer, The Yakima Food Guy will be out here serving food, DJ Perkins will be spinning tunes out in the pergola from 6-9pm, so who cares what the theme is. Come, drink, and celebrate summer with us.
When: Friday, August 9; beers will start flowing at noon, DJ will be here from 6-9pm
What: A Blonde Lifeguard Party, celebrating the release of Hot Tub Lifeguard Kettle Sour and Raging Ditch Blonde Ale.
•Hot Tub Lifeguard Kettle Sour: With a cannonball of real blood orange, guava, and raspberry purees added into the fermenter, this punchy pink pucker-face sour is the culmination of three years of experimentation in the Imagination Station. Drink up, y'all, Bale Breaker is on duty. 5.2% ABV
Availability: Draft & 6-packs to go
•Raging Ditch Dry-Hopped Blonde: Named for the maze of irrigation ditches that flow through Yakima Valley's rich farmland. Low bitterness with balanced honey malt notes and complex hoppy orange, blueberry and mango aromas. 5.2% ABV | 25 IBU
Availability: Only on draft

Location: Yakima

Steve Crabtree plays in several tribute bands including Petty Thief and The Neil Youngs.As a Drummer-Songwriter-Performer for many years, Steve Crabtree, has performed in a broad spectrum of music = from studio work and LIVE performances with numerous bands, to individual musical experimental projects, which has led him into the world of songwriting, as well as drumming with notable artists, such as Rocky Athas and Lightning, and studio work with blues guitarist extraordinaire, Buddy Whittington on THE HILTONS CD "Room Service". Steve's original songs cover a WIDE range of genres, from classic rock to country to House music, King Crab (his songwriting moniker) believes in "writing what he hears". Pop, Rock, and Country (crossover) songs display the influences, from The Beatles to Crossover with a hint of blues-rock hiding in the songs. Steve, after playing on the road, was bitten by the songwriting bug, but decided to learn other instruments AND learn to sing - well enough to make DEMO quality songs because "I wanted the song to sound exactly like I heard it in my head."

*Deep Sea Diver at The Seasons
Date: 8/18/2021
Location: Yakima
101 N Naches Ave, Yakima, WA 98901
Jessica Dobson’s musical bona fides are undeniable. Signed to a contract with Atlantic Records at age 19 (she recorded two albums for the label that were ultimately shelved), the gifted multi-instrumentalist went on to perform as a touring and recording member of the Shins, Spoon, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, as well as Beck and Conor Oberst, lending her colorful guitar flourishes and knack for offbeat melodies to each act while simultaneously continuing to write and record as Deep Sea Diver.
Dobson lives with—and is married to—the drummer of her band Deep Sea Diver, Peter Mansen. Mansen is doing what drummers do: practicing his craft in another part of the home they share in Seattle. The background noise this activity creates has become a bit unnerving for Dobson as we discuss the finer points of her group’s sophomore LP, Secrets (self-released via High Beam), perhaps one of the finest albums of 2016.

Location: Prosser
713 6th St, Prosser, WA 99350, USA
7:00pm - 9:00pm
Western Centuries has embarked on a somewhat unique experiment in songwriting and performing; three people, Cahalen Morrison, Ethan Lawton and Jim Miller sharing the songwriting and lead singing duties in the band equally. We met in Seattle in 2010 through the lively traditional music scene in the area.
Western Centuries are masters at what they do: Write songs, harmonize, and play music together. From a producer who lives on those older records where bands toured and put lots of blood and sweat into their sound, I am very grateful to be involved with a band that works so hard. It's a damn blast to record; the 2 inch tape machine just eats it up.

*The Downtown Yakima Mile
Date: 8/28/2021
Location: Select a Location
Downtown Yakima
The Downtown Yakima Mile presented by Home2 Suites by Hilton - Yakima Airport is a one-mile race down a beautiful 14-block gradual downhill stretch of Yakima Avenue, finishing in the shadows of the historic Larson Building. Open to runners of all ages and abilities who “want to run their fastest mile…..EVER”.
Run for fun. Run for health. Run for the record. Run to show your community spirit. Run to support survivors of domestic abuse. The Downtown Yakima Mile is back in 2021!
The Downtown Yakima Mile is much more than a race. It’s about bringing our community together in fun, fitness, and in support of important causes that serve our friends and neighbors right here in the Yakima Valley.
Everyone has their own reason to run, particularly this year as we emerge from the COVID-19 pandemic. Yakima’s only downtown community fitness event challenges both individuals and our community to come together on a day where everybody wins and records may fall: This year the Downtown Yakima Mile supports YWCA Yakima, whose motto is “eliminating racism; empowering women.”
The first Downtown Yakima Mile in 2019 drew runners of all ages and abilities from across the valley as they raced against the clock in hopes of setting a new personal best. In the final two races of the day, elite runners from around the world competed for more than $25,000 in prize money. That day, Amos Bartelsmeyer, running for Germany, set a new Washington state record for the mile at 3 minutes, 51.79 seconds! Therese Haiss of San Diego, who had just run the fastest mile for the state of California, won the elite women’s race in 4:29. She missed the state women’s record by a mere 2 seconds.
This year, the Downtown Yakima Mile Committee is ready and set for the second annual event, to be held August 28. The goal remains the same — to provide a healthy community event open to everyone, highlighting and celebrating the Yakima Valley on a local, regional, and national scale. Our hope is that the Downtown Yakima Mile inspires families who live here to become and stay active.
Like most non-profit organizations during the COVID-19 pandemic, the need for services from the YWCA Yakima greatly increased (by more than 30% last year!) but financial support has not. In 2020 alone, the YWCA Yakima touched 13,000 people here in the valley. The 24-hour domestic violence emergency shelter provided 8,000 bed nights, and the crisis hotline averaged 25 phone calls a day.
The Downtown Yakima Mile, seeks to shed light on the invaluable services that the YWCA Yakima provides in hopes that the community will also join in the effort to end domestic violence in our community by participating in the event. We invite you to join us!
