Thurston County’s Fall Fix-It Fair is back! 👏😀

Bring your broken items and get them repaired for free at the Lacey MakerSpace on Wednesday, November 5, from 2:30 to 6:30 p.m.

Volunteer fixers will be available to help with clothing and mending, lamps, small appliances, jewelry, housewares, and more.

When you repair instead of replace, you reduce waste, save money, and support a more sustainable community.

Time: 2:30–6:30 p.m.
Location: Lacey MakerSpace, St. Martin’s University Campus
Pre-register: https://fs23.formsite.com/wg80xb/n6djn081jh/index

The Thurston County Fix-It Fair was recently recognized with a 2025 National Association of Counties (NACo) Best in Category Award for its positive community impact.

Our hearts go out to the family, friends, and colleagues of Dr. Ruth A. Lawrence, MD, FAAP, FAACT, a pioneering figure in lactation medicine who passed away at the age of 101.

Her legacy as an educator, researcher, and passionate advocate lives on through the many families she helped and the field she transformed. Dr. Lawrence revolutionized breastfeeding medicine with her groundbreaking research and advocacy. She established the nation's first Breastfeeding and Human Lactation Study Center and authored the definitive medical textbook "Breastfeeding: A Guide for the Medical Profession," which remains the gold standard for clinicians worldwide.

We are forever grateful for her vision, leadership, and unwavering dedication to supporting families. Her life's work continues to inspire all those who champion breastfeeding support.

We encourage you to learn more about Dr. Lawrence's extraordinary life and remarkable accomplishments at https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/news/story/ruth-a-lawrence-md-19242025-a-trailblazer-in-lactation-medicine-and-child-health.

May her memory be a blessing.

Most businesses do those, "Something new is coming" posts but we decided to just jump right in!

Join us the first Thursday of the month from 10am to noon (or drop in any time in that window) for an infant feeding group overlooking the water in Steilacoom! We are happy to have breast/chestfeeding parents, exclusive pumpers, bottle or formula feeding families, and any combination of those. You're welcome here!

Our first group is coming up soon: November 6th! (And if no one shows up we will just hang out and eat snacks, so nothing's lost 😁).

Register online to attend: https://forms.gle/dbnFxMMApg1xjkZT6
Suggested donation of $20.

Please note clinical care is not provided during this group. For more comprehensive lactation support we recommend scheduling a one-on-one lactation consultation.

Can't wait to see you there!

Dr. Andrea Shaw

Anyone who meets me, instantly knows that my passions are family (of all sizes, shapes, genders and colors), children and pregnancy. These are the things that get me out of bed each morning...​plus coffee. I feel blessed to be doing the work that I LOVE and witnessing the transformations that I see daily. It is an honor to be a part of your family's healthcare team.
