THINGS TO DO IN EVERETT, WASHINGTON
ENGAGE EVERETT
WEDNESDAY at XFINITY ARENA, ARENA GRILL
Wanna rub shoulders & network with fellow professionals in Everett? Head to Xfinity Arena at 4:30 PM on Wednesday for Engage Everett. A bit introverted? If it helps, there'll be a cash bar and free hors d'oeuvres, (aka free food). More info here.
PUMPKIN BEER & CIDER TASTING + CHOCOLATE TASTING
THURSDAY and SUNDAY at SNO-ISLE CO-OP
It's fall, which means it's time for pumpkin-flavored everything. That being said, you should probably head to the Sno-Isle Co-op on Thursday from 4 PM to 6 PM to sample pumpkin beer & cider. Or, if pumpkin isn't your thing, stop by the co-op anytime on Sunday to sample a variety of chocolate they have in store. The best part: they're both free.
22nd ANNUAL MONTE CRISTO AWARDS
THURSDAY at EVERETT PERFORMING ARTS CENTER
This isn't a sandwich contest, this is a house contest. Who's gonna win a coveted Monte this year? More info here.
GOBLIN SPLASH
FRIDAY at FOREST PARK SWIM CENTER
Get into the deep end of the ghoul pool on Friday night at 7 PM at Goblin Splash – a sweet kid-friendly event with games, prizes, refreshments, and swim time. It’s all for a good cause, too. Bring canned food for VOA Food Bank or you can pay admission to put money toward the Park Scholarship Fund. More info here.
EMI PRESENTS THE SECRET SHOW
SATURDAY at ??? at 9 PM
We don't know the location, but we do know who's playing and we can't freaking wait because this lineup is too good.
