Doggie "Poop" Dispensers appearing in Edmonds Parks‏

I'm pretty sure we can all agree that a clean city is a healthy city, right? Thanks to Stormwater Engineer Program Manager Jerry Shuster, along with Mr. Steve Fisher, the City of Edmonds was able to secure a grant designated for “storm water education” which enabled the City to purchase 4,000 “poo collector” bags. Then Mr. Shuster convinced the firm of Custom Bioplastics to donate ten dog dispensers to City of Edmonds (a savings of $600.00 dollars).

Be on the lookout in Edmonds, the City will have doggie poop dispensers and bags appearing throughout town.

Diane Buckshnis told us, "Dispensers will be placed on Sunset Avenue, City Park, Yost Park, Pine Ridge Park, Interurban trail near Lake Ballinger and Mini Park near the restrooms at Ferry holding lanes.

Dick's Drive In continues to celebrate 58 years of business with 10 cent soft drinks today

Thirsty? I sure hope so because to continue the celebration of 58 years in business, Dick's Drive In has another special for you.

Back in 1954 soda's at Dick's were only 10 cents. That's right, a dime!

To honor you and your 58 years of loyalty, all soft drinks, any size for today only are 10 cents.

Hmmm...how many soda's can you get today at the 1954 price for one at today's price?

As a card carrying...uh...mug carrying Mug Clubber at Gallagher's Where U Brew and a self described connoisseur of fine craft brews, I feel it is my duty to inform you of the big party that is about to take place at Gallagher's.

This Saturday (January 28th), Gallagher's will be celebrating their 1 year anniversary in their new(ish) location. You're invited to celebrate starting at 4pm in the brewery. Just bring along something to share, everyone knows how Gallagher's loves a good potluck!

The folks at Gallagher's said, "The new brewery at Harbor Square has been open now for ONE FULL YEAR. It's terrific success is due to faithful participation by so many. You have played an important part in its wild success. Come join the wild celebration. Here's to many, many more years!"

Hazelwood Elementary Marched for Civil Rights

Hazelwood Elementary Marched for Civil Rights

Learning about our history is important not just in Edmonds but everywhere and keeping our kids educated on our history is a great way for us all to continue to remember. The Edmonds School District schools all provided some form of Martin Luther King, Jr. recognitions and educational opportunities for the students.

One school really stood out and took a different path toward educating their students. They marched right out the door!

On January 13th, Hazelwood Elementary School students conducted a Civil Rights March around the school track which included waving posters, banners and picket signs. The themed day kicked off with an all-school Civil Rights assembly then teachers taught grade-level appropriate lessons. Students also made signs that either reflected historical Civil Rights messages or ideas related to the current school community. All Hazelwood students marched as part of the event celebrating Martin Luther King Jr. Day the following Monday.

Way to continue the "Dream", Hazelwood!
