What To Do With Dad On Father’s Day in Centralia

Written on June 12, 2007 by admin

Father’s Day

Father’s Day is just around the corner and you may be asking yourself what to do with dear ol’ dad. Centralia:live has found a couple of special events that are going on to celebrate that special day.

Steam Train Ride

The Chehalis-Centralia Railroad will be offering a special gift for dads. Whistles blowing, steam plumes rising, and wheels click clacking along the steel tracks. A classic 1916 Baldwin steam engine pulls a modest 1920s dinner and passenger cars on this one and three quarter-hour excursion. Passengers are served a catered three-course dinner with a main course of either prime rib, chicken or salmon during the 18-mile roundtrip that runs along the Chehalis River and through the tranquil Lewis County countryside. On fine weather days, open-air cars allow for unobstructed views of the scenic landscape. Cost per person is $51.95 (inclusive of tax and gratuity). Call 360-748-9593 for reservations. Info provided by festivals.com.

Hit the Links

Invite dad down to the local golf courses for an enjoyable round of golf. The Newaukum Valley Golf Course has a lunch special between 11am-1pm where Dad can get 18 holes of golf and a free lunch for $30. At the time of this post, Riverside Golf Course was also looking at a Father’s Day Special. We will keep you posted.

A Night of Blackjack

The King Oscar Motel and the Lucky Eagle Casino are offering a Father’s Day Extravaganza during the weekend of June 15 through June 17. This exceptional weekend will consist of one night’s accommodations, dinner for two and a casino fun package for the low price of $85.00 plus tax. For more info and reservations, call the King Oscar Hotel at 360-736-1661.
