This Week in Sandpoint

The week ahead! Sandpoint has a lively week ahead, starting Thurs, Oct. 9, with the IPAC Sandpoint Movie Night Fundraiser, where the Idaho Panhandle Avalanche Center hosts an evening of films, prizes, and community connection to kick off the winter season. Then, on Sat, Oct. 11, parents and caregivers can join the Fall 2025 READY! for Kindergarten Workshop to learn early literacy strategies. That same day, fans of all things nerdy will gather for Sandemonium X, celebrating the 10th anniversary of Sandpoint's convention devoted to anime, gaming, sci-fi, and creativity. Also on Sat, the 3rd Annual Oktoberfest at the Granary will bring festive music, local brews, and family fun to the community, while the Food Bank 45th Anniversary Fundraiser invites guests to enjoy small plates, auctions, and raffles in support of local hunger relief.
