Robinson Communications is pleased to bring you this annual guide
of local festivals, fairs, and family fun things to do in and around
your own backyard. This year we’re featuring activities that nurture
the community, the neighborhood and the street where you live.
Most are free and that’s a really good thing, especially now with
the economy trying to sort itself out. I’m a huge believer in making
lemonade out of lemons...who knows, maybe we’ll find creative ways
to entertain ourselves, ways to reconnect with our friends, meet our
neighbors, volunteer for an animal rescue center, help build a house
for Habitat for Humanity... giving our leisure time away is a great
investment. Hmmm, just maybe.
Enjoy! Get out there and have some fun

What a dif-
ference 50 or so
years can make!
When Seafair first
splashed into our
summers, the Seattle
area had no major
league sports teams,
no Seattle Center and no Space
Needle. Seattle needed to be a player on the national scene in order to
grow itself into what we are today...a robust, economically and ethnically
diverse community. Seafair did for the Puget Sound what the Rose Bowl
festivities did for SoCal...brought not only people to participate, but through the
growing popularity of TV, it brought a nation of viewers to town.
Seafair has always been a winner, right
from the beginning with multi-day events
and highlights such as Thunderboats racing
on Lake Washington, the Blue Angels thun-
dering across the skies and parades headlined
with likes of Bob Hope and Bing Crosby.

As major cities melt and become the
same, Seafair is the fabric of our
community that represents the
Northwest lifestyle and keeps us
unique.
Seafair has become the summer
event series enjoyed by nearly 2
million Puget Sound residents each
summer. Don’t miss any of the
high-speed action during Seafair
2009! From creatively wacky milk
carton boat racing on Green Lake,
the antics and mischief of the
outrageous Seafair Pirates to thun-
dering hydroplanes on Lake Wash-
ington, Seafair is a full week of
uniquely Seattle Summer adventure.

The Seafair Pirates at the Torchlight Parade and the Blue Angels are just a couple of the attractions
that will highlight Seafair this year. Photos provided by Seafair
28. 4th of JulyThe 4th of July holiday is just
around the corner and for
many families that means
a trip to the beach. Parents
will pack up the cooler, grab
some towels and
load up the kids for a
day of family fun.
There are a few
must take items to
pack up too.
1. Avoid sunburn. Sun
protection should be
number one on the list.
2. Be careful when
walking around. It’s an
absolute must to take a pair
of beach shoes for every
member of the family.
3. Be prepared. Another
good idea (just in case) is the
trusty first aid kit.
4. Let the kids play their
way. Some kids aren’t into
the whole building sand
castles idea so they need
something else to help keep
them occupied on the beach.
5. Snacks. A day at the
beach can be a lot of hard
work so take a long some
snacks. Pack something
practical that everyone will eat.

The concept has caught on
again, shop local and seasonal.
There seems to be a farmers
market taking place on every
day of the week. You can find
fresh fruits, vegetables, flowers,
artisan bakery and other edible
products like jams and honey.
There are handmade crafts, jew-
elry and soaps. These community
gathering places often educate
by hosting a master gardener
to answer gardening questions,
or share information about local
farm groups and land steward-
ship. There could be a trio crank-
ing out folk songs, and now, you
may be able to use WIC and
SFMNP coupons. Get to know
your neighbors, eat nutritiously
and support local farmers. See
page 38 for local markets and
when they start; many are year
round, rain or shine!

Love My Dog
(Dog policies at
Farmers Markets)
The majority of dogs are
well-behaved, but there have
been incidents of dogs jump-
ing up and eating samples
off vendors’ tables, dogs
getting into fights with each
other, and dogs on leashes
causing obstruction or safety
hazards. Fortunately, these
incidents are uncommon,
and because the markets are
walking destinations and lei-
surely outings for many shop-
pers, most will try to accom-
modate dogs where they can.
So, feed them, potty them
and get out there. Of course,
service dogs are allowed at
all markets.

First Thursday in Pioneer Square was the first Art Walk in the
U.S. In 1981 a group of Pioneer Square art dealers printed hand-
out maps, did small-scale promotions, and on the first Thursday of
the month painted footprints on the sidewalk outside their galleries.
First Thursday soon evolved into a beloved fixture on the local arts
calendar.
Art Walks are an amazing way to mingle with a really neat
cross-section of people who like art, culture and society, as well
as meeting struggling, striving and successful artists. Many venues
seem like they’re parties where you could bump into Holly
Golightly. Depending on the city or neighborhood, these free
events are on a specific evening of the week and are hosted by
local businesses and galleries.
Art Walks Seattle
First Thursday takes place
each month in Seattle’s historic
Pioneer Square neighborhood,
from noon - 8 p.m.
Ballard
Galleries and businesses stay
open late on the second
Saturday of each month from
6 - 9 p.m. showcasing artists.
Start at the south end of
Ballard Avenue and work your
way up the street to Market
and continue.
West Seattle
Brought to you by your local
West Seattle merchants, over
40 businesses displaying art
and showcasing artists every
second Thursday, 6 - 9 p.m.

This event is an annual Art
Walk, a full day of fun with a
wide range of amazing arts-
related activities, art and per-
formance in the shops on and
around main street. Saturday,

42. The International District - just south of Jackson Street near the King
Street train station, is comprised of several blocks of a mix of Asian
cultures. There are just too many to number; unique small shops
filled with exotic merchandise, restaurants and grocery stores selling
ethnic foods.
Alki Beach - the most hip and happening 2.5-mile strip of beach in
the entire area. When the sun’s out it teems with inline skaters,
volleyball players, cyclists, joggers, dog walkers and car-cruisers all
creating that ‘we’re at the beach’ vibe. Lined with fabulous eateries,
a view like no other of the sound and passing ferries, this may also
be one of the most romantic stretch as well.
Fishermen’s Terminal - Located at Salmon Bay, it provides moorage
to more than 700 commercial fishing and workboats, including some
from the popular Discovery Channel show “Deadliest Catch.” It also
houses restaurants, a fish market and the Fishermen’s Memorial. Just
south of the Ballard Bridge.

43. Late summer may be the perfect season to enjoy Alki Beach.
Beautiful weather meets diminishing crowds as kids go back to school. Since the beginning of the
recorded history of our region, Alki Beach has been a destination. Seattle's first pioneers landed at Alki
Beach in 1851. For this reason, it is commonly referred to as the Birthplace of Seattle.”
Perhaps Alki's roots contribute to its draw,
but today's pioneers are in search of great food,
outdoor fun, and unique shopping. Alki doesn't
disappoint. Consider Alki's former reputation as
Coney Island of the West - Fun has always
been the core of the Alki spirit. Then: beach
cottages, hotels, dining establishments, indoor
heated salt-water natatoriums, and the grand
Luna Park amusement park. Now: Dining
establishments, neighborhood merchants, and
over three miles of scenic recreational opportu-
nities. Times have changed, but Alki's reputation
for attraction endures.
The businesses of Alki look forward to seeing you this season to share the unique food and fun of the beach.
For more information on the attractions of Alki, visit www.AlkiBeach.ws, the home page of the Alki Business
Group - Businesses Working Together to Enhance the Alki Community.
Luna Park (1907-1913)
was located at the
Duwamish Head.
The pilings are still
visible at low tide.

44. It’s a warm summer night and just really too nice to be inside
watching TV. Most cities have arts and cultural programs offered
free through their parks and recreation departments. Well, not really
free, we do pay with taxes, so we really must take advantage of
these delightful opportunities.

1. Go for a walk for pure pleasure, not for exer-
cise. You’ll be amazed what you see in your
own neighborhood.
2. Make a kite from scratch, or from a kit. Then
fly it. They’re amazing. There are directions
and ideas on-line, and our windy beaches
are perfect for kite-flying.
3. If you take your dog to a dog park, invite the
little old lady who lives on your street and
her Shi Tzu to go along with you. It’s a great
way to get acquainted, and she might
appreciate the company. Or if someone in
your neighborhood has mobility problems
and a dog, offer to take their buddy along
when you go out.
Get out of the boxSummer isn’t the only season to have good-old fashioned
fun, but for those of us living in the beautiful
Pacific Northwest, it’s a wide open window of opportunity.
Get out of the box and
have some fun.

4. Introduce your children to
museums before they start to
think they’re boring. (Where
does that come from any-
way?) My kids have taken
my grandson since he tot-
tered and now at two-years-
old, he actually gets excited
when he knows it’s a mu-
seum trip after his nap.
5. Collect neighbors’ unwanted
paint then paint a mural
somewhere fun. Maybe a
neighborhood childcare, a
church, a side of a parks
building, somewhere when
people see it they’ll not only
get pleasure for their eyes
but food for their thoughts.
6. Maybe there’s an elder who
you could scribe their life
stories. How wonderful a
gift for you to be a part of
their oral history.
7. Go to Shakespeare in the
Parks. Go early, take a
picnic and socialize, and
enjoy the show.
8. Volunteer at a pet shelter.
Take in a homeless pet. Re-
ally, how much trouble is a
cat? Dogs are more so, but
they add so much to your
life.
9. Go all the way—investigate
how you can help, take in,
mentor, sponsor, and feed
regularly—a homeless per-
son. A real concept huh?
