This include: rotator cuff impingement, shoulder instability, labral tears, stiff shoulders (including adhesive capsulitis), and shoulder OA.
These quarterly meetings are FREE and are intended to provide a great learning and networking opportunity for those in the fitness space throughout Bellingham and Whatcom County. They are targeted toward coaches and personal trainers, but anyone is welcome to join!
Light breakfast will be provided.
Please make sure to RSVP, so we can plan for the correct number of attendees!

Stay EverStrong, my friends!
The Koma Kulshan Chapter of the Washington Native Plant Society regularly holds educational field trips, meetings, and webinars–typically free and open to the public! Registration is required for this event. Please see below for details.
Date: Monday, August 1
Time: 10 am to 2 pm
Location: Meet at the Visitor’s Center parking lot in Heather Meadows (MP 56 on Mt. Baker Hwy) near the Mt. Baker Ski Area at 10 am.
Participants should bring warm clothes/layers (just in case), sun protection, lunch, and adequate water.
Volunteers from the Koma Kulshan Chapter of the Washington Native Plant Society monitored wildflower phenology (when plants bloom) and bumble bee foraging from spring snow melt to the first snowfall for five years in Heather Meadows. This hike will visit some of the areas that were monitored to see subalpine wildflowers at their peak and learn about how native plants and bumble bees interact to assure pollination and the profusion of wildflowers at Heather Meadows.
We will start the hike at the Visitors Center parking lot and tour three of the transects we monitored at that elevation. We will then drive to the Artist’s Point parking lot and visit two additional transects at higher elevations. This will be about a three-mile hike with about 300 feet of elevation gain. For those who need the exercise, there will be an option of walking up the Wild Goose Trail from the Visitors Center to the Artist’s Point parking lot (add about 1.6 miles and 500 feet elevation gain to the hike).
***Pre-registration with the event organizer is required as the hike will be limited to 12 participants. For more information, please visit our calendar at the link provided.
The Koma Kulshan Chapter of the Washington Native Plant Society regularly hosts educational seminars and field trips, typically free and open to the public. **Registration is required for this event as space is limited.** Visit our calendar listing at the link provided for more information and registration instructions.
Meetup location: Baker River Trailhead. Visit link below for more information.
Dense forest limits flowering plant abundance in much of the North Cascade lowlands. However, there are lowland areas with abundant flowers and, of course, their associated pollinators. River and lake margins provide habitats where sunlight penetrates far enough into riparian areas to create healthy flowering plant communities. Meandering rivers (Baker River as a prime example) also create forest openings that gradually recover to mature forest, going through several stages of flowering shrubs and small trees. If we have time, we may even visit a burned area along Park Creek where the shrub layer is slowly recovering. Late May to early June is the best time to visit the Baker River area. We should see quite a few flowers.
Planning ahead: This will be a relatively easy hike of about 2+ miles on mostly level terrain along the river. Hopefully the weather will be good, but you never know, so bring appropriate rain gear and warm clothing. Also bring a lunch and plenty of water. Forest Service/Park Service parking pass is required. There are no fee stations in the area. We will be meeting at the trailhead, so please arrange your own carpools as you think appropriate. It can be up to a two-hour drive to the trailhead, depending on how many stops you need to make along the way.
Koma Kulshan Chapter of the Washington Native Plant Society
Chapter Meeting:
Many people are unaware of the fascinating diversity of bees and other pollinators around the world. For example, in the state of Washington alone there are upwards of 700 species of native bees. To the naked eye, many of these organisms look like nothing more than a mundane house fly. Through the macro lens, however, a vastly different world is revealed. In this presentation, Aidan Hersh will showcase the beautiful bees and pollinators of Washington and beyond. Aidan Hersh is a macro photographer and native bee enthusiast living in Bellingham. He serves on the board of the Washington Native Bee Society and the steering committee of the Washington Bee Atlas. He hopes that his photography will spark interest in the too often forgotten yet vitally important world of bees and pollinators. His photos can be found on Instagram @photo.by.aidan
This is an in-person chapter meeting! The Koma Kulshan Chapter’s in-person meetings begin at 7pm in the Sustainable Living Center education room at the ReStore (2309 Meridian St.). The entrance is off the back alley and the SLC is upstairs.
