SUMMARY:Community Program: Sinking of the Clallam
DESCRIPTION:The Woodinville Heritage Society would like to invite you\, your family and friends\, to our next FREE Community Program\, “Sinking of the Clallam.” This event takes place on Saturday\, October 19th\, 10:00am to 11:30am at the Brightwater Education Center\, 22505 State Route 9 (Woodinville-Snohomish Rd)\, just north of Costco. \n\nIn the storm-wracked early hours of January 9\, 1904\, the steamship Clallam sank in the Strait of Juan de Fuca\, claiming the lives of at least 56 people\, nearly all of them passengers. The jewel of the Seattle-Victoria run\, the ship was not even a year old. While a scandalized British Columbia dubbed her the ‘Coffin Ship’\, the Clallam was not an anomaly in the North American steamship trade. The wreck’s aftermath exposed an environment that would alarm both sides of the border. \nErik Kosick\, History B.A.\, Pacific Lutheran University\, has researched the tragedy for over a decade\, and will take you through Clallam’s short life and her final voyage. Through rarely seen photographs\, artifacts and accounts of Clallam’s passengers and crew\, you will see how this nearly forgotten shipwreck created a watershed moment in the Pacific Northwest’s maritime industry.

SUMMARY:Community Program: Atomic Washington - Our Nuclear Past\, Present\, & Future
DESCRIPTION:At the center of every nuclear weapon in the United States is a small pit of radioactive material manufactured at a top-secret facility in Eastern  Washington\, a facility which today remains the most radiologically contaminated site in the Western hemisphere. \nBut Washington State’s role in the nuclear era ranges far beyond the construction\, operation\, and ongoing cleanup of the Hanford nuclear reservation. Today\, Washington has two operating nuclear reactors\, one of which provides us with ten percent of our electricity. Radioactive substances are used in our state to cure diseases\, build airplanes\, detect pollutants\, and power smoke detectors. Further\, Naval Base Kitsap has the largest stockpile of nuclear weapons deployed anywhere in the country. \nDrawing from history\, science\, and popular culture\, author Steve Olson reveals the many influences of nuclear materials on Washington State\, and the many ways in which our state has been a pioneer in the atomic age. \nSteve Olson (he/him) is a writer who most recently authored The Apocalypse Factory: Plutonium and the Making of the Atomic Age. His books have been nominated in several local and national book awards. Since 1979\, he has been a consultant writer for the National Academy of Sciences\, the President’s\nCouncil of Advisors on Science and Technology\, and other national scientific organizations. Raised in Eastern Washington\, Olson now lives in Seattle.

SUMMARY:Community Program: “The Story of the Seattle-Everett Interurban Railway”
DESCRIPTION:Operating for 29 years\, the Seattle-Everett Interurban Trolley traveled over 29 miles of rail carrying passengers and freight to nearly 30 stops along it’s line. In the first decade of the 1900’s the Boston electrical engineering firm of Stone and Webster had designs of building an interurban electric railway system that would eventually connect Olympia\, Washington and Vancouver\, British Columbia. To start the north link\, they purchased the Seattle-Everett Interurban Railway Company from Fred E. Sander in 1908. \nSister and brother authors Cheri Ryan and Kevin Stadler grew up in the community of Alderwood Manor\, once an important stop on the interurban route. Both are members of the Lynnwood-Alderwood Manor Heritage Association and have done extensive research of the area. Ryan is a member of the City of Lynnwood History and Heritage Board and Snohomish County Historic Preservation Commission and Stadler is on the board of the Woodinville Heritage Society as well as the League of Snohomish County Heritage Organizations. \nThey have gathered numerous images that tell the story of the early railway running between Seattle and Everett. These images have been gathered from variety of sources; over which half have come from the estate of Walter V. Shannon who was the last surviving motorman from the Seattle-Everett Interurban Railway.

SUMMARY:Community Program: "After the Blast: Mount St. Helens 40 Years Later"
DESCRIPTION:On May 18\, 1980\, the world watched in awe as Mount St. Helens erupted\, killing 57 people and causing hundreds of square miles of destruction. Everyone thought it would take ages for life to return to the mountain\, but scientists who visited soon after were stunned to find plants sprouting up through the ash and animals skittering around downed trees. \nEcologists have since spent decades studying life’s resilience in the face of seemingly total devastation. Through their work\, the eruption of Mount St. Helens has become known as the greatest natural experiment in Pacific Northwest history. In his talk\, Eric Wagner takes you on a journey through the blast zone. He explores not just the surprising ways plants and animals survived the eruption\, but also the complex roles that people have played\, all while showing how fascinating Mount St. Helens still is 40 years after the blast. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Community Program: "Lost Roadhouses of Seattle"
DESCRIPTION:The Woodinville Heritage Society is offering a free community program on “Lost Roadhouses of Seattle” presented by local historians\, Brad Holden and Peter Blecha. \nWashington state prohibited alcohol in 1916\, four years prior to a national ban. Prohibition resulted in a network of roadside inns\, taverns and dance halls just outside Seattle’s city limits operating well into the 1950’s. Several roadhouses existed along two stretches of highway\, Bothell Highway and Highway 99. Among these establishments providing illicit entertainment were the Green Mill\, Jolly Roger and Parkers Bothell Highway Pavilion.
