Want a place to have a refreshment and possibly watch a little football during the upcoming Harvest Festival, Sept. 15-17?

The Grand Coulee Dam Area Chamber of Commerce is providing such a place in its “Beer Garden” at North Dam Park.

The tent will be open Friday, Sept. 15, from 6 to 10 p.m.; Saturday from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m.; and Sunday, 1-5 p.m. Spend $5 on a possibly winning ticket and you could even win the raffle for the 55-inch TV you are watching. The TV was purchased at cost by the chamber from Loepp Furniture.

Remember: College football on Saturday, and Seahawks on Sunday.

You can also enjoy the “Best Dam” Poker Run on Saturday, when you see the bikes start rolling in after a 160-mile ride through some of the scenic areas of local counties.

Registration for the Poker Run is 9-10 a.m. on Saturday, and the last bike in is set at 3 p.m.

Meanwhile, there will be a host of activity going on at Banks Lake Park, adjacent to North Dam Park, including pumpkin and zucchini decorating, water balloons, face painting, and a bubble-making station for kids.
