Picnic in the Park/Candidate Forum

  • Post author:

Mayoral and City Council candidates are headed to Gas Works Park next week for a special lunchtime Q&A.

Hosted by the Wallingford Chamber of Commerce, in partnership with the Fremont, Ballard, Queen Anne, and U District Chambers, this 90 minute lunch will be on Wednesday, June 19, from 12:00PM to 1:30PM at the Gas Works Park Pavilion (2101 N. Northlake Way). The cost is $20 which covers a catered picnic lunch. Here’s the full scoop:

This fun annual event grows every year and with the picnic shelter – rain or shine, this is always a great place to talk with all the candidates before the primary to determine who you will support, vote for and maybe even work to help elect.

We welcome:

Mayoral Candidates: Mike McGinn, Tim Burgess, Bruce Harrell, Kate Martin, Ed Murray, Peter Steinbrueck

We will also be joined by Candidates for City Council as well as representatives from various initiatives.

$20 includes a picnic lunch by Cafe Turko with dessert by Cameron Catering!

    Wow-what a great precursor to 7 PM Wednesday event at Good Shepherd Center 202 to hear AMLI’s response to our concerns and requests regarding the 3400
    Wallingford Project # 3014232/33 (and follow-up meeting on Thursday, 6/20 at
    7PM at Varsity Inn. Our current and budding local political leaders need to hear that
    community needs to be involved in the inevitable density framing of south wallingford/north lake union. Also, remember the 6/26 deadline to submit your comments to and re the project.
    Wallingford – putting the “neighbor” back in “neighborhood” – YEAH.

    If I didn’t have to work that day, I might consider it — except that the RSVP form has no info about the lunch. $20 is a lot (or me) to pay for food I might not be able to eat.

    If you write to the WCC contact on the RSVP page, there’s probably time to have some input into the menu. If you find out anything that might be of interest, let us know!

    Oh, wait — except you aren’t going anyway, because of work. I’m confused?
