I’m doing my homework for my Washington State History class, and I have to do a powerpoint on historical events in washington state between 1889 and 2008. And we’re required to have at least 4 events be from Eastern Washington. We’re also supposed to explain why that is significant but I just need one more event from Eastern Washington and I can’t find anything! Please help if you can find anything, I’ve searched but I can’t. I need to get this one last slide done by tomorrow.

This site is talking about Lewis & Clark. That’s pretty major history.
