Revenge of the 6th | Star Wars Trivia Fundraiser Benefitting the Max Higbee Center @ Stemma Brewing Co.
May 6 @ 6:00 pm – 9:00 pm

Join us at a Brewery in a galaxy not that far, far away for a night of Star Wars trivia and supporting the pillar in our town that is the Max Higbee Center!

Who is the Max Higbee Center? They’re a local organization here in town with a mission to provide community-based recreation programs for teens and adults with developmental disabilities in three ways:

1. To provide opportunities for personal enjoyment and enrichment through a diverse range of leisure activities.
2. To promote the social, physical, emotional, and cognitive growth and development of participants.
3. To assist participants to achieve greater independence in their lives and increased involvement in the community.

Last year we raised $4,235 and our goal is to beat that this year with a total of $5,000 or more.

Join Bellingham Parks & Recreation for a presentation with guest speakers Alex Brede & Megan McGinty in the Rotunda Room of Old City Hall.

The smallest country in East Africa holds amazing diversity and wisdom within its borders: the Congo-Nile Trail, Lake Kivu, Nyungwe Forest, and resilient communities rebuilding themselves. In January & February 2023, Alex Brede and Megan McGinty spent 6 weeks traveling and volunteering in Rwanda. In this presentation, they share what they learned and the new connections they made in both Rwanda and North America.
