Weekend Listen: 4th graders in Tukwilia celebrate the end of school after a difficult year for immigrant students, 5 years after a deadly heat dome in the Northwest people prepare for increasingly hot summers, and Thousands in Oregon have turned old cars and trash collection into an annual game called the Gambler 500
Today, we’re bringing you the best from the KUOW newsroom. In Tukwila, a class of fourth graders ended the school year with a big, public art show full of mixed emotions. The school is a hub for new immigrant students, and the artwork celebrates some of their journeys. As KUOW’s Gustavo Sagrero reports, the show came at the end of a tough year, as immigration enforcement took a toll on this classroom. It’s been five years since a record-shattering heat wave hit the Northwest, killing an estimated twelve-hundred people. As the world’s climate keeps warming, we can expect more heat—and more deaths. John Ryan looks at efforts to make our next heat wave less deadly. Road trash cleanup often involves people along a highway in orange vests with those little grabbers and plastic bags. But in Oregon, there’s an annual trash pickup event that’s more like a party. Thousands of people come together to drive hundreds of miles of forest service roads picking up trash by day and camping out with live music and fun at night. Matt Martin was there last weekend.

As everything gets more expensive, is Costco the secret to savings?
Today we're bringing you an episode from our friends at KUOW's data podcast Control F. We’re heading into a long holiday weekend. If you’re taking a road trip, you’ll need to fill up the gas tank, maybe even get some new tires. For a longer journey, a rental car can be helpful. Don’t forget to pick up toiletries and refill your prescriptions. If you’re in town hosting grab some extra lawn chairs for the guests. You can get all of this at Costco – along with your groceries. Conventional wisdom is that Costco is a good deal. But grocery prices are up. Grocery inflation is up 27 percent in the last 5 years following pandemic supply chain disruptions and international turmoil. So, will shopping at our local bulk retailer Costco save you some money this holiday? We can only make Seattle Now because listeners support us.
