The Whatcom Dispute Resolution Center Brings Back the Wander to Wander 1k

The Whatcom Dispute Resolution Center invites the community to join us for a fun run that is more fun than run on Saturday, June 8th. This Bellingham-based fun run benefits the Whatcom Dispute Resolution Center and is hosted by Wander Brewing. Beginning with donuts at the WDRC office, participants will ‘wander’ (or sprint) along the 0.62-mile-long route to Wander Brewing. At the finish line, enjoy a pint of beer or root beer (included with all registrations), food trucks, and the fanfare of this exciting friendly competition, while raising funds to advance our mission to provide and promote constructive and collaborative approaches to conflict.

        We acknowledge that Whatcom County is located on the unceded territory of the Coast Salish Peoples. They cared for the lands that included what we’d call the Puget Sound region, Vancouver Island and British Columbia since time immemorial. This gives us the great obligation and opportunity to learn how to care for our surrounding areas and all the natural and human resources we require to live. We express our deepest respect and gratitude for our indigenous neighbors, the Lummi Nation and Nooksack Tribe, for their enduring care and protection of our shared lands and waterways.
