The Yakima Valley has a lot to offer. Culturally diverse, you will find welcoming people who share a love for the outdoors. You are three hours away from the metropolitan area of Seattle. Great for a weekend getaway for Seahawks, shopping and fine dining. You can be on the world class ski slopes of White Pass two hours after you leave your driveway. If you want to fish you can head to the Columbia River, the Oregon Coast, or a nearby lake or stream. Windsurfing in the Columbia Gorge is an hour away.

Bloomsday, one of the largest amateur running events in the world, is held every May in Spokane, a two and a half hour drive to the north. The Seattle to Portland Bike Ride takes off every July.

If you like your fun closer to home there is a 15 mile bike and running path that links Sunnyside to the neighboring towns of Grandview and Prosser. Washington State University - Tri Cities, Central Washington University, Heritage University and Yakima Valley Community College are all viable options for continuing education. There are public and private schools in Sunnyside. There are other excellent school districts nearby.
