WALLOWA LAKE — The 35th
Summer Fishtrap Gathering of
Writers happens July 11-16 at
Wallowa Lake Lodge, and every

the public.
The theme of this year’s writ-

“Summer Fishtrap eve-
ning readings and events are
a highlight of the week for
me,” said Mike Midlo, Fishtrap
program director. “It’s always
great to see people from the
community come up to the
lake to take in, and be a part of,
the Summer Fishtrap experi-
ence.”
He said this tradition dates
to 1988. Each night, Wallowa
Lake Lodge will serve drinks
from 5-7 p.m. and all events be-
gin at 7:30 p.m. outdoors under
Aaron Abeyta
the big tent.

of Nez Perce artists, writers and

and homeland of the Wallowas.
