Pool closure, store opening, music, trivia, more on the Wednesday list, plus West Seattle from the sky
Thanks to Anne Higuera from longtime WSB sponsor Ventana Construction for that cool aerial view looking northeast across our peninsula and beyond. (If you’re viewing WSB on desktop/laptop, you can click the photo to open a larger version.) Meantime, here’s what’s happening around, and of interest to, the peninsula today/tonight:
FLOAT DODGER 5K DISCOUNT SIGNUPS: As announced last month, registration opens today for the July 22nd West Seattle Float Dodger 5K, presented by West Seattle Runner (WSB sponsor), benefiting the West Seattle Food Bank. Discount rate if you sign up today!
SOUTHWEST POOL CLOSED: This word from the city-run indoor pool:
Southwest Pool and most other Seattle Parks pools will be closed today, Wednesday, February 1st.
In an agreement with Puget Sound Energy, some high volume business users are required to stop using Natural Gas to ensure an adequate supply for residential customers. Today is one of those instances.
Currently, Meadowbrook and Rainier Beach Pools are planning to operate today.
We’ll have a separate update on this later today.
