Good morning, Wenatchee.

Ongoing construction for a new downtown apartment complex is causing headaches for Wenatchee Avenue business owners and customers today — delays and congestion disrupt routine operations.

Wenatchee Valley Museum will host its annual fundraiser Night For The Museum (Sept.

25, 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.) at the Numerica Performing Arts Center as the museum continues renovations through 2027. The event will feature dinner and a live auction and has few tickets remaining.

Local drivers are using smooth acceleration and coasting techniques (achieving up to 30% more fuel savings) amid high gas prices.

Experts say that commuters on HWY 28 can benefit from these methods to stretch every gallon.

Leavenworth offers visitors unique experiences such as hand-feeding reindeer at a working farm, hiking to Colchuck Lake beneath Dragontail Mountain and floating along the Wenatchee River – visitors can also enjoy Bavarian cuisine, local brews and a quirky nutcracker museum.
