Deming Log Show Taking Place June 12th and 13th!

June 9th, 2010 by Fawn | Posted in Whatcom County Events | No Comments »

 

Logging has long been a part of the culture and history of Whatcom County.  This weekend marks one the largest yearly logging event in Whatcom County, the Deming Logging Show. The Deming Logging show came to be
in late 1962 when a logger was seriously injured while working in the logging industry, here in Whatcom County. At that time compensation from the State Dept. of Labor and Industries was very slow. Finley came up with the idea of having a Logging Show, put on by local loggers demonstrating what they do on a daily basis. The first show was considered a success, as 800 people paid $1.00 each and seemed to enjoy it. The money went to the injured logger. 
 
The Deming Logging Show has continued year after year, raising money to help those loggers and their families. Today, the tradition of the Deming Logging Show continues on drawing thousands of spectactors and fans from across the nation and several foreign countries.  Events take place this Saturday June 12th and Sunday June 13th with the actual show starting at 1pm each day. Some of the events you can watch are the log processing exhibition,log loading exhibition, axe throwing, speed climbing, choker setting, hand bucking, double bucking and chain saw bucking.  There are also several local businesses who have booths and information on displays as well as a variety of food vendors.  Hope to see everyone there!

The Deming Log Show grounds are located at 3295 Cedarville Rd in Deming Washington. For more information visit www.DemingLoggingShow.com
