Your local new & used BOOK / COFFEE / COMIC / GAME / HOBBY / RECORD / TOY shop!

Adventures Underground is a locally owned and operated mom and pop shop at 1391 George Washington Way in Richland, Washington (USA).  We have over 10,000 square feet of retail space, which we have filled with thousands upon thousands of new and used books, comics, graphic novels, record albums (and a few cassettes), children’s toys, adult collectibles, Japanese import snacks, Gundam and other model kits, and many other items.  It should be too many to even count, much less catalog, but we keep darn near everything in our inventory database, which we share online with you.  We’re pretty much your local neighborhood bookstore, comic book shop, record store, and game and hobby shop.  We’ve even had an in-house coffeeshop, Caterpillar Cafe, going strong for several years now.

Debbie Honeyman, wife of the late Jim Honeyman, has donated much of Jim’s voluminous sound equipment to 3RFS, as well as the very special guitar for this year’s Guitar Raffle.  Jim was an important part of the 3RFS and Tumbleweed families, as well as a noted performer in his own right, both solo and in various bands and combinations of players over the years.  Jim’s memory will be preserved in the name of our South Stage.

Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, operated for the Department of Energy by Battelle, is a leading center for scientific discovery in chemistry, data analytics, and Earth science, and for technological innovation in sustainable energy and national security.

Battelle donates a large amount of printing services to Tumbleweed every year, and supports the festival with generous cash donations.

Jane Titland (1946 – 2014) was a great supporter of songwriting, and she helped and mentored many Northwest musicians and songwriters over many years in their songwriting efforts.  She and her husband John backed our songwriting contest from the very first year of Tumbleweed, in 1997.

Since Jane’s passing, her husband John has donated the prize money for the Jane Titland Memorial Songwriting Contest each year, in memory and honor of Jane’s love and support of the art of songwriting.
