Wallyhood Calendar: Spring Clean, U-District Street Fair

Eric Eric May 16, 2015 Comments are off

Pick up some junk and get plied with pizza and beer and neighborly gossip. If the weather holds then it’s not so bad for a Saturday out and about:

Wallingford Spring Clean 9 AM to 12 PM: We will meet up at the Wallingford Center at 9 and come back at noon for pizza! Tools provided (but feel free to bring your own favorite implement if you have one) Bring a team, or join a team! A great way to earn those community service hours!! There will be PRIZES!!! Thanks to the following organizations for their support: Wallingford Center, Wallingford Boys and Girls Club, Wallingford Chamber of Commerce

N Northlake Way from 12 to 4 PM: Come remove trash, weeds, and debris while walking along N. Northlake Way in Wallingford and Fremont. Meet at Waterway 22 (at the intersection of Stone Way N. and N. Northlake Way) at noon on May 16th. All event equipment and materials will be provided. All ages are welcome. There will be a post-event celebration at Fremont Brewery.

Orchard Pest Prevention on the Burke-Gilman Trail from 12PM to 3PM: Join City Fruit for a work party on the Burke-Gilman Trail. We need volunteer to help us place protective bags over the young apples along the Burke Gilman Trail. These bags will keep out pests that like to eat the growing fruit. The more apples we can protect, the more fruit we can harvest and share with the community! Meet at 555 NE Pacific Street, intersection of NE Pacific and lower NE 40th. Sign up here.

U-District Street FairThe 46th Annual U-District Street Fair is also this weekend. The Ave will be chock full of vendors and buskers on Saturday from 10 to 7 and Sunday from 10 to 6, between 50th and 40th on University Avenue. It’s always a good time. More info is here.

Sunday at 11 AM is the walking tour of Wallingford with Seattle City Council. It’s been mentioned. After the walk, go to the U-District street fair!

Family Day at Meridian Orchard 10 AM to 1 PM on Sunday. Don’t care about transportation or city government or street fairs? Join us for Family Day at Meridian Orchard! City Fruit needs volunteers to help us place protective bags over the young apples in our orchard – a fun activity for the whole family. These bags will keep out pests that like to eat the growing fruit. The more apples we can protect, the more fruit we can harvest and share with the community. Sign up here.

Tuesday: Teacher strike!

Volunteer work party for the Good Shepherd Center grounds at 6 PM on Wednesday: We could use some extra hands to help maintain the gardens at the Good Shepherd Center. Many hands make light work and will help us tackle things we don’t have time for otherwise. It will also give volunteers a chance to do a little gardening and get to know the garden better, including the plant collection, history, and future plans.
