I grew up on an island in Alaska and while I’m certainly not discounting its beauty, I feel as if I never really experienced fall until my first year in Kittitas County. Not just because of the leaves changing colors and the clear change in temperature, but because of all the community gatherings to look forward to that truly make this season feel like something to be thankful for.

I moved to Ellensburg just shy of two years ago. I became a Wildcat in pursuit to finish my Bachelor’s Degree in Sociology. My mother is a CWU alumni and swore up and down that Ellensburg is a great place to live. Being from Snohomish, Washington, I was excited to relocate to another small town. The red brick buildings downtown helped me feel right at home here.
