Forks Washington on the Olympic Peninsula

Head to LaPush July 16th, 17th and 18th for the super-fantastic Quileute Days Celebration.  Activities include softball, parade, horseshoes, carnival, canoe races, stick games, bingo, salmon bake, fry bread cook-off  and fireworks just to name a few!  This annual event is one of the best community festivals you will ever have fun at.  Enjoy the hospitality of the Quileute tribe as they celebrate "History Through Our Traditions" this years theme.  An added bonus this year will be the appearance of Gil Birmingham who plays the fictional Quileute tribal chief Billy Black in the "Twilight" saga. 

We're excited for our friends and neighbors in LaPush--the Quileute Nation has launched their cool new online store featuring authentic handmade and locally-produced merchandise. This is the real thing here, folks, not "Made in China," or anything like that, but high-quality products direct from Quileute tribal members. The Quileute Nation is renowned for its skilled artisans and this is the perfect venue to share their creations with the world. We particularly liked the carvings and the cedar hat, but there's something for everyone here--check it out!
