World reporters take turns working weekend shifts. During these shifts, you are usually tasked with covering a more light-hearted story than you would cover in a typical week. This week, for example, I'm covering multiple school board meetings, a state senate hearing and a visit from Rep. Kim Schrier.

It was my turn to work this weekend, and I attended bundle up festival and a youth sports fair, both of which took place at Pybus Saturday. The event included a petting zoo, hayride and a visit from the Wenatchee youth circus. Click here for a full recap of the festivities.

I enjoy the important, hard news stories I cover on my beat. But it's always fun to take a break and write something a little more light-hearted.

The World has a website page dedicated to helping readers find resources to stay up to date on happenings in Olympia.

• Bill finder where you can track the status of a bill, read the text of a bill, see the sponsors, the bill's history and it's status in both legislative chambers. You can also check the status of whether Gov. Inslee has signed the legislation.
