The Olympian's 2010 list of local bazaars is a work-in-progress

It's that time of year again!

Advertise your non-profit bazaar in The Olympian's annual listing of local bazaars. This is what we need to know:

Name of Bazaar, sponsor, time, days, dates, street address, description of what you're selling, and the name and phone number of a contact person. Also, let us know whether or not you have space for others to join your bazaar, and what the cost might be.


There's still time for entries

There's still time for entries

Think you're a good cook?

Prove it. Start cooking and enter the Puyallup Fair.

The fair sponsors close to 100 categories of food contests. It’s free to enter. First- and second-place winners, and in some cases third-place finishers, win products, gift baskets or cash prizes of $3 to $200.

Walking tour of the city by the bay

SAN FRANCISCO – San Francisco is one of the world’s great walking cities, but it can seem like one endless climb. So we found a springtime walk that mostly heads downhill – and two ways to do it.

The first is to follow in our footsteps, although you are free to take detours and explore places that catch your eye.

The second is more structured; for that one, you’ll have to sign up with Shanghai San Francisco. The 3-year-old company hosts a street-theater walking tour and interactive scavenger hunt along a route similar to ours. Whichever path you choose, you’re in for delights and discoveries.

Costumes created and worn by the women of Olympia’s own Tush burlesque troupe will be on display at costume and vintage shop Balsie Birdwell, 528 Capitol Way S., Olympia. The store also will display photos of the performers taken at their productions.
