Historic driving tour from Laurier to Spokane
Follow the upper portions of the Columbia River that were flooded when the Grand Coulee dam was constructed as you drive this 120 mile, 2.5 hour driving route from Laurier to Spokane (or vice versa). You’ll explore charming small towns, historic rock structures built by the Civilian Conservation Corps, and—with an optional side trip— Washington’s highest mountain pass in the remote Colville National Forest.

Main Street Community on your way: Wenatchee
If you want a sneak peek of our 2022 conference host (spoiler!!), stop through downtown Wenatchee on your way to Colville. This award-winning downtown has it all – beautiful buildings, incredible small businesses, recreation opportunities galore, and people who work hard to build community every day. Leading the pack is the Wenatchee Downtown Association.
Main Street Community on your way: Moses Lake
Downtown Moses Lake is our “One to Watch.” This community, which is rich in mid-century architecture, has been reinvesting in its downtown, and it shows. Inviting the community downtown to enjoy the good things in life – including a cold one, live music, and time together – is what the Downtown Moses Lake Association is all about.
