Quickly approaching is the 7th annual Dirty Dan Days Festival on April 25 & 26 in the Historic Fairhaven District of Bellingham, Washington. A fun, funky seaside village Fairhaven boasts a charming district center with historic & new buildings featuring condominiums, offices and boutique shops.
The added Seafood Festival theme to the Saturday events should be a fantastic addition with festive booths featuring food, toy boat building, interactive salmon art, Dan Harris history and cooking demos. Saturday's fun will end with our first Cupcake Eating Contest, featuring cupcakes from the newly opened Katie's Cupcakes.
Sunday's Chuckanut Chowder Cook-off has continued to grow and our local Restaurants feature some of the best chowders around. For a $10.00 fee you get to sample between 16 - 18 ounces of chowder, then choose your favorite and received a 10oz bowl & a hunk of bread. Additionally, the Dan Harris Challenge has continued to grow with the help of the New Whatcom Rowers group.
