SUMMARY:Big History-Evolutionary Story of the Earth & Life On It
DESCRIPTION:Where: Community Cultural Center of Tonasket\, 411 S. Western Ave\nWhen: Friday\, January 3\, 2020\n• 5:15 – Dinner by Joyful Thai\, benefitting the CCC\n• 6:30 – Presentation by Dana Visalli\nCost: Presentation is free; dinner is $12 per plate; desserts by donation (benefit for the CCC)\nMenu: Garlic Chicken or Veggie Stir Fry\, Pork Pad Woon Sen or Vegetarian Green Curry\, Steamed Jasmine Rice and Chicken or Veggie Egg Roll. \nBig History ~ the evolutionary story of the Earth and the life on it\, in one hour\, with Dana Visalli \nEvent Description: Dana Visalli will carry out a seemingly impossible task: describing the evolution of life on Earth in ONE HOUR. Dana’s deep understanding and enthusiasm for nature shows in his work as a professional botanist\, naturalist\, writer\, publisher and educator. While he is interested in all aspects of life on our planet\, the topic for this presentation is especially fascinating to Dana\, who shares\, “Big History is the most interesting\, compelling\, and meaningful subject are I have ever encountered.” It was once thought that the Earth was static and unchanging\, but we now know the opposite is true. Both the Earth and the life on it are dynamic and ever-changing. This is the scientific story of evolution; it borders on the spiritual\, and is meaningful to our own lives. \nMore Information:\n• Clock hours are available for educators. Please be sure to sign in the day of the event.\n• Donations are always welcome!\n• Questions? Contact Jen at jen@okanoganhighlands.org or 509-429-4399\n• https://okanoganhighlands.org/education/highland-wonders/

SUMMARY:Mission Ridge Yeti Release & Ribbon Cutting
DESCRIPTION:Mission Ridge Yeti “Release” & Ribbon Cutting Ceremony \nLocation: At the top of the Liberator Express at Mission Ridge Resort \nJoin the creators and artists behind NCW’s newest mythological art installation for a Wenatchee Valley Chamber hosted ribbon cutting on Saturday\, January 4th\, 2020. The towering 11ft metal sculpture\, known affectionately as “The Yeti” will be officially introduced to the public and “released” to the wild at its new semi-permanent home near the top of the Liberator Express at Mission Ridge Ski & Board Resort. \nThe life-size sculpture was created by a team of local artists called Project Yeti\, and installed in September 2019. Adorned with reclaimed metal chain\, the installation was designed to gather snow and ice to provide a different caricature upon each viewing. Some days it may be the mythical Bigfoot\, brown and rusty. Other days it will be the Yeti – gnarled and covered with snow and ice. “Mission Ridge provides the perfect ‘yeti sighting’ backdrop for the thousands of visitors to the mountain each year” says Project Manager\, Kasey Koski. “We hope that it becomes a beloved part of the Mission Ridge experience.” \nProject Yeti consists of Kasey Koski\, Project Manager; Zeb Postelwait & Thad Brewer\, Creative Leads and Oly Mingo\, Outreach Coordinator. The list of supporting sponsors includes Wenatchee Valley Museum & Cultural Center\, Okanogan Wenatchee National Forest\, Lemolo Cafe and Deli\, North 40 Productions\, Wenatchee Sand & Gravel\, Wenatchee Valley Scrap & Recycle\, Randy’s Towing\, American Shoe Shop and Mission Ridge Ski & Board Resort. The project also raised several hundred dollars in public crowd funding. \nThe ribbon cutting is open to the public\, however a lift ticket is required to access the chair lift. The event will be followed by an informal toast to the Yeti at Midway Lodge. \nFor more information about the yeti installation visit facebook.com/missionridgeyeti or follow the Instagram hashtag #MRyeti
