Waitsburg Lions Club held its 67th annual Salmon BBQ last weekend at the Don Thomas building, serving 520 diners despite competing events such as the Apple Cup and local weddings—many attendees praised the fish and socializing as the best they have experienced in years.

The first annual Royal Block Party was held in an alley behind the hotel, Ten Ton Studios, Plaza Theater, and Wolfling Coffee in Waitsburg during a busy weekend that also saw the Lions Club Salmon Feed and the Waitsburg Historical Society Fall Festival.
