Good morning, this is your Spokane Local Frequency for March 1, 2025. We've got a packed weekend ahead, so let's dive right in. The Northwest Bach Festival continues today and tomorrow at Barrister Winery. Tonight's concert features works by Ravel, Debussy, and Fauré, while Sunday's performance showcases Tchaikovsky and Beethoven. Music lovers won't want to miss these intimate chamber music experiences.

For those seeking nostalgia, head to "It's A 2000s Party" tonight for a blast from the recent past, featuring hit songs from pop, hip-hop, and rock. If you're in the mood for theater, catch a performance of "Annie" at the First Interstate Center for the Arts, with shows today and tomorrow.

Sports fans, mark your calendars. The Spokane Indians baseball team is gearing up for their season opener on April 4th. Single-game tickets are now on sale, so grab yours for what promises to be an exciting 2025 season.

In community news, the Ray Early Learning and Development Center recently broke ground in the Logan neighborhood. This innovative preschool aims to provide culturally-based education and wraparound services, addressing the needs of families in an area considered a childcare desert.

Looking ahead to next weekend, don't forget about the 28th Annual Wine, Stein & Dine event at the Kootenai County Fairgrounds on March 8th. It's a great opportunity to sample local beverages while supporting a good cause.

On the weather front, we're expecting milder conditions in the coming days, which should provide some relief to local waterways affected by recent flooding. However, the National Weather Service advises that more rain is on the way, so keep those umbrellas handy.

For film enthusiasts, the Spokane International Film Festival kicks off next weekend. Daily screenings will be held at the Magic Lantern Theatre, showcasing a diverse array of international cinema.

Lastly, a reminder that Inlander Restaurant Week continues through March 8th. It's your chance to explore the best of Spokane's culinary scene with special menus and pricing at participating restaurants.
