SOLD! THANK YOU, RIDGEFIELD.

Hey there! Spokane here, had grand plans to see Evanescence tonight in your fair city, and I woke up with what I am hoping is only a stomach flu and not the salad I had a few days ago. :(

We have 2 Lawn tickets with chair rental that were $50 each, so we thought we'd see if someone local wanted them for, say, $25 each?

Save some money for you, and help me afford Pedialite.

Message if interested!

I love this town, but outside of major community events like the 4th of July parade, it can feel a little tough to run into peers in the 20s-30s age bracket.

But this weekend, I saw some of y’all out there (dozens of us)!

I’m hoping to organize a casual mixer at one of our local breweries to meet more neighbors our age and make more local friends beyond the Vancouver and Portland bubbles...

If you’re in your 20s or 30s and want to escape your house for an evening, vote below or drop a comment!

Here's a way to contact the Clark County Council to share your thoughts if you would like to see them banned county-wide.

I apologize if this is a bit of a silly question. I'm not very familiar with the area, so please bear with me.

A neighbor told me it's possible to walk from Costco to where the fireworks will be, instead of taking the shuttle. However, my GPS shows it as about a 1-hour walk.

Does anyone know the shuttle schedule? Also, is there a walking route or side road that doesn't show up on GPS? I was told some roads will be closed.

I'm not planning to spend the whole day at the festivities. I'd just like to come in time to watch the fireworks.

Thanks in advance for any information or advice.

Happy 4th! 🇺🇸 And go USA! ⚽️🥅

Looking for recommendations!

My fiancé and I moved to the area recently and are looking to buy our wedding bands. I may be interested in a custom band for myself and my fiancé is still unsure what style band he wants.

Does anyone know where I can recycle grocery bags and similar kinds of plastic (i.e. plastic wrapping, shipping bags, etc.) here in Ridgefield?

The only place I know of is in the Safeway in Salmon Creek. They have a big bin at one of their front doors for this kind of thing, but it would be awesome if there was a place in town.

Thank you!

My husband, our baby & I were in Ridgefield yesterday afternoon and lost our digital camera. It’s a little black point-and-shoot Canon Powershot in a black canvas-y case and has pictures of our baby from her 6 month photoshoot on it. We last remember having it at the Ridgefield Lavender farm around 2:50pm yesterday but we went to Van Laeken farms afterward, between 3 & 4pm, and it’s possible it fell out of one of our pockets picking strawberries or in the parking lot. We messaged Van Laeken farms and provided some info but are currently awaiting a response.

UPDATE: it was found at the Ridgefield Lavender farm!! 🎉

Was at the Kid Cudi concert last night, me and some friends asked how people who actually live in the area must feel considering the traffic, out of control attendees and just music

MIR put all the info in one spot - for the semiquincentennial (yes, I just learned that is what it is called). Ridgefield 4th of July Guide

Hello does anybody have the Venmo of the guy that was selling T-shirts outside of the Kid Cudi concert tonight after the show my Venmo said it went through, but I’m not seeing that it actually did so I’m trying to pay him

UPDATE 6/21/2026 Rhody was killed on I-5 shortly after bolting. Her body was returned to us Sunday. She’s buried in the garden. Thank you for looking out. Internet people found her on Nextdoor and PAWD it forward (a commenter recommended them) they picked her up and brought her home.

UPDATE 6/21/2026 8AM RHODY IS STILL MISSING

My neighbor set off a series of fireworks at 8am and my dog clawed her way out of her dog run. We are around dollars corner area. I shot out of bed to get her knowing she’d he scared to death and I just missed her. Her bed was still warm when I got to her run. She’s 20lbs, tan, looks like a basenji or whippet but she’s a pit bull min pin pug mutt. She is wearing a black e-collar. She is not friendly to other animals or children or strangers. She is chipped. She is so so so loved and I am gutted. Pictures are in the comments.

We think she bolted east down 502 from I-5 towards Battleground. Bolted from 502 and 22nd Ave at 8am 6/20/2026

DO NOT CHASE, CALL, or WHISTLE

MESSAGE ME DIRECTLY IF YOU THINK YOU SEE HER

Thank you for reading!
I am updating daily

Please post on your social medias and share with friends!

Gorgeous day near Bachelor Island 🏝️

Back in the day in Camas car mechanics or tire centers put innertubes out front for people to buy to float down the river. Does anywhere local do something similar?

I checked all of the socials for Ridgefield businesses/breweries... Heading to Vancouver tonight, but alas... this feels like a miss!
