Local Events in Tacoma: Daily Sep. 5 Thru 9

With one activity recommended each day you have no excuse to be bored. All activities and events recommended are either in Parkland or accessible by local transit. All cost $10 or LESS. Look forward to next week's recommendations covering the whole week.

Wednesday 5th: Explore Bresemann Forest

Pacific Avenue and Military Road, free access

Just because we live in a city does not mean that we can't enjoy the beautiful patches of nature around us. Located on Military Road, right off of Pacific Avenue, Bresemann Forest is one of those majestic places where you can forget that you live in a city. There is a parking lot at the mouth of the trails and a very large climbing boulder to help you find the place. Take the time to really explore the approximately 70 acres of wilderness on the walking trails.

Thursday 6th: PLU Theater Production of The Search of Signs of Intelligent Life in the Universe

8:00pm-10:30pm Eastvold Auditorium, Pacific Lutheran University

This will be Pacific Lutheran University's first production of the year starring Julie Wolfson and directed by Tristan Morris. This show by Jane Wagner is bound to be hilarious. Although it is running from the 6th through the 9th, I recommend seeing it on Thursday because it is "Pay What You Can" Night. Friday, and Saturday performances are also from 8:00pm-10:30pm and the Sunday performance is 2:00pm-4:30pm. The Friday through Sunday price is $7 General Admission and $4 for Students, Faculty, and Alumni.

Friday 7th: Do the Puyallup Fair

10am-11pm at the Puyallup Fair grounds. General Admission $10, Students and Seniors $8, Kids under 5 are FREE.

The Puyallup Fair starts today. As the biggest Fair in the state of Washington it is surely an event not to be missed. Their website has an interactive tool to help you plan your trip no matter which day you decide to go. Don't worry if you can't go on the 7th. It will be waiting for you up through Sunday September 23rd.
