Tri-Cities Wiki
The most common posts on our sub are always looking for something. New comers want to know where the locals go. The locals are still stuck in the time bubble that keeps the Tri-Cities, forever frozen in the memory of when they first moved here, thinking there is nothing to do. There is a common misconception that "we don't get the good stuff because we are so small" and I have made it a personal mission to bring a spotlight to all of what the area has to offer!
Since I started event posting a few years ago, I've amassed quite a database of offerings. This year, I've been working on building the sub's Wiki, and there's finally enough finished that I think it's ready to pin. What I was aiming for was a Reddit style link aggregator that is useful and comprehensive.
Do you need to find a park? A Date-night idea? Kids activity or a hiking trail? Are you looking for a mediterranean market, a local club or where to vote? Want to know where to take visitors other than the mall, or where to start when you find yourself heading here for a sports tournament? It's probably in there.
I've tried to build this more like a local reference guide than a list of random links, and there's a LOT in it already. Things to Do, Food & Drink, Outdoors, Family, Arts & Culture, Sports & Recreation, Local Life, local resources and services, and a bunch more. Anyone can find the chain retailers, which our cars automatically find themselves driving to.
It's still a work in progress, because I just keep finding more categories to add. If you find something that's missing, outdated, closed, wrong, or just think something belongs in there, tell me. Local knowledge is exactly what will make this thing better. Please let me know of anything to add or broken/dead links.

Need Help With ‼️ Would anyone like to have the sweetest cat in the world in their home?
I cant afford to responsibly keep her at this time, and im moving to a place that doesn't allow pets.
Shes about a year old, and fixed. Shes the most affectionate cat youll ever meet, and shes very smart, and well behaved save the fact thats she is horrendously gluttonous, so protect your food or be willing to share.
She will want be able to sleep with you every night, and she'll respect your sleep. She'll stay asleep with until you until you wake up at witch point she will demand cuddles.
Her favorite way to play is playing fetch, preferably with a skinny straw or a hair tie. Shes good at keeping herself occupied but will be delighted when you come home.
Garenteed to make your life happier. Anyone willing to take in my little baby?

Need Help With ‼️ Needing help with an attorney who would file a wrongful death suit against a hospital
My mother passed shortly after having her heart medication repeatedly denied for over 2 months. This wasn't denied by the Doctor or Nurse but a medical staff member at a clinic she had been going to for several years. Ive reached out to a few Attorneys but they havent replied. Not sure where to turn.

Local Politics 🇺🇸 Pasco Police Budget Adjusted for Inflation and Population 2015-2025
There has been a lot of local discussion about the City of Pasco budget. There is apparently a large shortfall - lots of blame going around etc etc. One of the plans has called for cutting police and fire budgets, which has made people unhappy.
I did a brief analysis looking at the police budget over time, adjusted it for 2026 dollars, and also made it per resident. Bottom line, the budget has increased even accounting for those adjustments. Note, this is just the police, not fire/EMS. Also, I had trouble finding a clear complete 2026 amended budget, so just left it at 2025 spent.
As far as I can tell the "cuts" they are talking about would be essentially maintaining the amount of money to be very similar, but job cuts would have to be made due to increasing wages, cost of benefits, inflation etc.

Anyone know of a good tech repair place that does robot vacuums? I have a robo-vac that needs a part replaced, and I even have the part, but I don't have the tools or the know how. Even if it's a little out of the area like Walla Walla or Spokane to either drive or ship it too. I just need the thing fixed and can't find anything useful on google.

Discussions & Polls 🎙️ Please check your mail, open those ballots, and VOTE!🇺🇸
If you are 18 and can register to vote, please do so. It took me about 12 minutes to read into some of the specific people running for office and the measures that are going to be voted are that are very important. These affect us here in our beautiful state arguably more than the president, in regards to our state policies, etc (except gas😵💫) please help your house hold and close friends, family, community, etc! It’s a right many fought tooth and nail for. Don’t take it for granted😜
If anyone has any opinions/specific testimony or say for a specific legislator or initiative that’s being voted on, please do so respectfully and let’s have meaningful conversations.
Please please please vote! Be part of the change you wish to see fellow Tri-Citians!🫶🏻

Moving/New Here 👋🏼 insurance
Hey all, I've posted in here before about apartments and its been really helpful.
Im new to Washington State, and obviously I lost my previous states insurance. Where I come from, we were rated amongst the worst for insurance and health coverage in general.
Unfortunately, Im wondering if insurance here just sucks too?
I qualify for special enrollment since I moved, but I apparently do not qualify for any savings since my job offers insurance (which I do not plan to take, as the benefits are terrible and the amount that would come out of my paycheck isnt worth it).
So i guess my question is.. any advice? Do I avoid the healthplanfinder website and look into individual insurance companies directly? None of the plans recommended to me covered all the medications I need, or even the doctors, at that.
Needless to say every plan suggested was well over $100/month or an outrageous out of pocket price before actual coverage kicks in.
If context helps, I had ambetter in my home state and qualified for savings, bringing my total monthly cost to like $45 for the plan and all my meds and doctors were covered.

Local Politics 🇺🇸 The Financial Integrity Perspective on Our Upcoming Election
I volunteer for the Political Integrity Project, and we work on spreading the word on corporate PAC spending, super PACs, stock holdings, and donation sizes. I've made versions of these posters which can be easily printed and/or posted online. All voters deserve integrity and should know about financial integrity. Spread the word!

Need Help With ‼️ Kadlec Employment
I know this is probably a dumb question… I’m applying for an administrative job at Kadlec. It lists the job as “Pay Range: $ 20.92 - $ 32.00”. Does anyone have experience going in and asking to start out on the higher end? Just trying to better understand all of this!!

Local Culture & Events 🎭 You can see everything
I have been (impatiently) waiting for the release of the new movie "You can see everything". It's release date is Friday October 16 so I have been checking the local theater showtimes almost every day the past two weeks to see if they will have it available. Unfortunately none of our theaters is playing it, the closest one that I could find that is playing it is in Spokane.
I'm confused that there isn't at least one theater locally that's playing it, especially because our theaters have no reservations about playing indie films, and this one seems to have a wide release and is quite well known. AMC is listed as a theater chain that is showing them, but our local AMC isn't.
Does anyone have any recommendations besides calling all the local theaters about showtimes or going to Spokane to watch it? What are the chances one of our theaters will pick it up later?
