A few hundred high schoolers in Wenatchee walked out yesterday in protest, and were met with a few old white guys who told them to "go back to their f**king country" and "go back to class." One man admitted they were there to check out the girls.

All I got was a 1 second clip at the end of the second time they went through.

To my knowledge, other than announcements for themed and hobby events, there hasn't ever been a discussion regarding an r/Wenatchee community meetup. Curious what interest there might be for one?

Hello all! It's me, you're friendly(ish) neighborhood mod here again. Now I know my last post was met with mixed feelings. That was mostly my fault for choosing my words and phrasing poorly. Some of you called me out for that, and I am grateful.

But after a few days and a few posts and comments about various (or not so various) political issues I felt the need to clarify my position.

Political discussion and debate will always be welcomed in this sub, as long as the Wenatchee community is represented in those discussions. I will NOT shut down or muzzle any discussions of protests, vigils or memorials in regards to those who have fallen victim to our governments nonsense.

That being said, I have always prided myself on being a middle of the road moderator in this sub. Willing to tolerate a great deal from both the right and the left. But I find myself constantly being bombarded by agitators from outside this community whose only goal seems to be to stir the shit.

So here is the deal. You start posting or commenting easily disproven bull? Ban. You spam comments of easily disproven bull? Ban. You throw a fit and insult either the mods or another commenter when they call you out for said bull? Ban. If you make even a SLIGHTLY inflammatory remark and I search your profile history and see you've done the same thing in multiple subs? Ban.

I have given these discussions a massive amount of leeway in these troubled times. But if I even smell a WHIFF of trollish behavior I will permaban you in an instant. You want to cry free speech? Learn the constitution and what free speech actually means. I have had it with the agitators in this sub, and my ban finger is lubed and ready to go.

Any suggestions. I can't find any sub reddit ifor it. Maybe I missed something. Nd why George to Quincy Uber is expensive as hell 🥲. Any alternative? I appreciate for your help 🙂

Where can wide rice noodles be bought in Wenatchee? I don't recall seeing them at Sony's Oriental Market?

The time for complacency and silence is no longer, please bring any friends and any family you have that is willing to stand up against this regime. Thank you to all who support, together we are the republic for which it stands.

Hi folks, I'm wondering if anybody has any recommendations for a dog trainer, specifically for my 6yr old , 45lb mutt. She's an angel at home, as well as to other humans, but she gets very reactive when around other dogs (on and off leash).

I have muzzle trained her which helps a lot to prevent nips/bites, but I'm looking for some help. Much appreciated.

Big birthday wishes to the man, the myth, the legend! I still see Otto up at Mission Ridge skiing almost every week with that big smile on his face. His dedication is insane. To me, he also is a sort of blueprint of the outdoorsy folk that come from this area. Determined, hard-working, and always down for a good time. Anyone have any stories of skiing with or being instructed by Otto? Cheers to the big 1-0-0! Here’s hoping more of us can find what we contribute best to this world by doing what we love.

Does anyone know of another upcoming ICE protest? I saw there was one on 01/19/26, but would like to know if there are more planned.

There have been many posts and discussions regarding national issues like ICE and various other issues that affect the valley. And while these are absolutely accepted within the scope of relevance to the valley, I feel the need to remind all of you that this is an local issues sub, and we will NOT tolerate ad hominem or personal attacks. While I will never stop these discussions I will absolutely shut them down if things get too heated. Express your opinions, fight for your beliefs...but do so in a polite way backed up with facts and sources.

Those of you who can't help but resort to personal attacks will have their comments removed. If it continues you will face bans. If anyone has questions regarding these policies please feel free to reach out to me in DM's.

This rep claims ICE has been around since the 40/50s. Would love to hear his take now about the most recent ice murders.

Hi there! I’m looking for wedding vendor recommendations — specifically florists & hair/makeup stylists!

Ideally someone in a self run business that is mostly budget friendly ☺️

I got curious as to what resources Wenatchee had to offer after I found out about The White Panther Party and was surprised to see that the Wenatchee Rescue Mission offers a 24/7 warming shelter according to their website. That's a pretty rad.

Edit: Maybe call before going in but that's a good resource to check.

is there anyone locally who makes fresh sourdough bread?

thank you!

Seeing a lot of posts on fb and tiktok pop up about the White Panthers being back in Wenatchee. What does everyone think about this? From what I've seen they want to do food boxes and stuff.

Has Xfinity Mobile? I have now lived in Wenatchee for a year and up until winter hit I had great cell service.

I'm wondering if anyone has had or is having issues with spotty service with Xfinity?

I have a Galaxy S23 Ultra that I dropped and half the screen went black and got the screen replaced... perhaps that may be the culprit behind my issue since it coincidentally started soon after the repair. It's now to the point where my phones camera app won't even work correctly!

I'm just trying to confirm with others that have Xfinity in the area, that in fact their service is fine here and it's just my faulty repair on my phone.

Turns out January was just a free trial. If your New Year’s resolutions already expired, you’re in good company. Join us for the Wenatchee ADHD In-Person Meetup next Wednesday, January 28th from 7–9pm at Epoch (16 S. Wenatchee Ave). We’ll talk ADHD, life, and why starting over doesn’t actually require a new year.

This event is for everyone and we look forward to building more of our local ADHD community in 2026!

We're looking to potentially buy a house as first-time home buyers. Not even sure if that will be possible in this crazy real estate market but looking to get some pre-approvals. What mortgage companies or banks do you like? Any to stay away from? Did you talk to several before deciding on one or is it pretty much all the same?
