Don't Miss: Greenwood Seafair Parade and meeting on coal trains

Greenwood Seafair Parade

Seafair Weekend is coming up, and that means it's also time for the 62nd Annual Greenwood Seafair Parade! This year's parade will feature the Seafair Pirates, Miss Seafair Scholarship Program for Women, Commodores and Parade Marshals, as well as entertaining units of marching bands, drill teams, Mexican dancing horses (yes, you read that right) and "more family fun."

The parade starts at 6:00 p.m. in the Greenwood neighborhood and is scheduled to end at 8:30 p.m.

Meeting on coal trains possibly going through Ballard

Our Redeemer's Lutheran Church is hosting a meeting about the possibility of coal trains chugging through Seattle. If SS Marine is able to develop at the Cherry Point port terminal near Bellingham, there can be as many as nine more coal trains, with 120 cars each, passing through Ballard each day. (Right now there are only a few.)

The meeting is open to the public. It starts at 6:30 p.m. and goes to 8:00 p.m.
