Although it’s had a name change, a successful Snoqualmie Days festival returned to Railroad Avenue this past weekend.

Formerly known as Railroad Days, the festival began in 1939 as a way to raise funds for Snoqualmie’s first fire engine. Since then, it has grown into a full blown festival celebrating Snoqualmie’s history and culture.
