Again this fall, three “Blessing of the Animals” events are scheduled in West Seattle – in case you haven’t seen them on the Events calendar yet, we’re mentioning them here since they’re just a little more than a week away: Providence Mount St. Vincent, 10:30 am October 3rd (meet in the front lobby); Alki UCC, special service 10 am October 4th (sanctuary); St. John the Baptist, noon October 4th in the nearby West Seattle High School parking lot. (Photo above is from St. John’s event last year.) All are open to any and all pets and their owners. Blessings are scheduled in many places around the country/world in honor of the feast day for St. Francis of Assisi (patron saint of animals), which is Oct. 4th this year.

That’s the trailer for “Happy Feet,” which is the feature for Family Movie Night outdoors at Schmitz Park Elementary tomorrow – raising money for the 4th Grade Islandwood Program Fund. $3 per person, with kids 3 and under are free (but “no dropoffs,” the school asks). “Doors open” at 6 – bring a chair and/or blanket – and in addition to the admission fee, money for concessions, 50 cents to $2, including hot dogs, popcorn, candy, water, soda and hot chocolate. Here’s a map to the school. (Thanks to Tony for the tip!)

West Seattle wildlife: Seal pup’s rest stop

 |   Seen at sea | West Seattle news | Wildlife

Thanks to Alki photographer Pete R. for sharing photos of a baby harbor seal resting on a float off shore. As we have mentioned here recently, West Seattle-based Seal Sitters say seal-pup season is now in full swing, and ask everyone to be extra careful when these babies turn up – onshore or offshore – taking a break while their moms go off in search of food. Seal Sitters are tracking some of the visitors on their website (read the stories here); that’s also where you can find out what to do if you happen onto a seal that no one’s guarding yet!

Astronaut’s other alma mater: Gregory Johnson at Schmitz Park

 |   West Seattle news | West Seattle schools

Imagine revisiting your high school AND elementary school in the same day, greeted as a returning hero. That’s what astronaut (US Navy Ret.) Capt. Gregory Johnson has experienced today – after his speech at the West Seattle High School Foundation breakfast (here’s our coverage, with video), he went on to speak late this morning at Schmitz Park Elementary, where a jampacked lunchroom heard him reminisce about – among other things – being on the playground when the 1965 earthquake hit. Johnson was hailed as an example that “you can be ANYTHING you want” really is more than a platitude.

WS Democratic Women endorse Carr after barb-laden debate
September 24, 2009 2:04 pm
|      3 COMMENTS
 |   West Seattle news | West Seattle politics

It may have been most noteworthy because so many other Seattle political forums/debates seem rather tame and pleasant, seldom much discernible disagreement, and when disagreement is voiced, it’s voiced relatively softly. But not in the Seattle City Attorney debate that just wrapped up before the West Seattle Democratic Women. This event frequently erupted with disagreement and accusations – with challenger Pete Holmes‘ criticism of incumbent Tom Carr (photo left) often meeting with Carr retorting that what Holmes had just said was wrong or distorted. Points on which they disagreed included the fate of domestic-violence advocates in the City Attorney’s Office – Carr alleged that Holmes wants to cut the jobs, Holmes says they should be “independent” and separate from the office so they can better advocate for the victims; he also expressed concern about “no-contact” orders in potential misdemeanor domestic-violence cases, where he suggested things might be blown out of proportion – after that, Carr said Holmes’ answer “scared (him).” They also disagreed over the need for a new jail to handle city misdemeanor offenders — Carr isn’t sure it can be avoided (but says his office has worked hard to reduce the need for one), Holmes believes it can. We’ll add more details later – you’ll also see stories elsewhere, as reporters from the Seattle Times (WSB partner), Seattle Weekly, and The Stranger were here as well. Meantime, WSDW members voted on endorsements after the debate, and in the City Attorney’s race, they backed Carr; they didn’t issue endorsements in all races, but in the ones where they did – for County Executive, Dow Constantine; Sally Bagshaw for council position 4; Rob Holland for Port Commission; and they’d already endorsed Jessie Israel for council position 6. ADDED: Video from the closing statements by Pete Holmes and Tom Carr – including some of the aforementioned tension (Carr begins his clip by saying he’s “flabbergasted” at what you’ll hear Holmes say in the first clip):

The Weekly has published its story here, with more on the domestic-violence advocate issue we mentioned above. ADDED SATURDAY: Holmes alleged during the debate that Carr’s office had sent someone to jail for stealing a can of tuna. Carr just sent us a note saying he’d checked into the claim and has published his side of the story on his website.

SWINERY FOLLOWUP: Wonder what food writers have to say about The Swinery? Seattle Times (WSB partner) food writer Nancy Leson has a followup on West Seattle’s hottest food news of the week; see it here (she includes WSB photojournalist Christopher Boffoli‘s video from opening day, too).

DJ’S FOOD DRIVE: Via Twitter, Shawn Stewart from The Mountain radio (@askthemd) wanted to let you know that she’ll be at the new Junction QFC collecting donations for West Seattle Food Bank this Saturday, 1 pm-3 pm, with giveaways including free concert tickets.

BUDGET HEARINGS: The City Council has just announced the dates/times for three budget hearings. If there’s something you want to make sure the city spends $ on – or doesn’t cut – or DOES cut, for that matter – be there. All three hearings start at 5:30 pm; none are in West Seattle: 10/7 at Whitman Middle School (9201 15th NW), 10/14 at NW African American Museum (2300 S. Massachusetts); 10/26 at City Hall downtown.

West Seattle High School Foundation breakfast: Starry-eyed
September 24, 2009 10:04 am

 |   West Seattle news | West Seattle schools

Back from the second annual West Seattle High School Foundation Back-to-School Breakfast – first one with an astronaut alumnus: Posing in the library pre-breakfast in the top photo, it’s Class of ’72 Capt. Gregory Johnson, with (from left) School Board members Michael DeBell and Steve Sundquist, WSHS alum and King County Council Chair Dow Constantine, WSHS principal Bruce Bivins, and district Chief Academic Officer Dr. Susan Enfield. During the event, Capt. Johnson presented Bivins with the jersey that he took up on shuttle Atlantis last May, signed by staffers who were at WSHS more than a year ago when the jersey was given to him in preparation for the trip:

With Johnson and Bivins, that’s Dick Lee holding the framed jersey, which two student volunteers then carried around the room so breakfast-goers could get a closer look. Asked if he’s going up in space again, Johnson said not on the shuttle, maybe to the International Space Station, or maybe he’ll go back to being a NASA test pilot. We’ll add video from the morning’s festivities and Capt. Johnson’s remarks, including his reply to the question “Do you believe in UFOs?”. (Added 10:26 am: Here are three clips, starting with his answer to that question.)

Johnson also was asked what’s ahead for the space program itself:

Earlier, WSHS band musicians played the fight song to welcome breakfast arrivals:

Purpose of this morning’s event: Fundraising to help get more tools to WSHS and its students, like an interactive “smart board” classroom-participation system shown off during the breakfast. By the way, Capt. Johnson visits one of his other local alma maters, Schmitz Park Elementary, later this morning, during what he called his “hometown visit.” ADDED: Thanks to WSHS Foundation president Christy Rowe for sharing this photo of the ’72 alums in attendance Thursday morning:

Highland Park Action Cmte. forum: 9 candidates, no incumbents
September 24, 2009 7:55 am

 |   West Seattle news | West Seattle politics

By Tracy Record
West Seattle Blog editor

Why take on a 3-term incumbent City Councilmember who also happens to be the council’s current president? Our first video clip (above) includes High Point resident David Ginsberg‘s explanation of why he’s running against Richard Conlin; Ginsberg was one of nine candidates for Council, Mayor and Port Commission who appeared at the Highland Park Action Committee‘s candidates’ forum last night at HP Improvement Club.

Also notable in Ginsberg’s speech: He went into more detail about development/land use than other candidates, suggesting the entire land-use code should be thrown out, possibly replaced by a “smart code.”

The lineup ultimately featured no incumbents – Conlin hadn’t been on the RSVP list, but Councilmember Nick Licata had – he canceled at the very last minute (first sending a text message saying he was running late, then that he couldn’t make it; his opponent Jessie Israel hadn’t planned to attend). Another notable no-show: mayoral candidate Joe Mallahan, whose campaign spokesperson told us via Twitter that he had another commitment in Southeast Seattle.

Mallahan’s opponent, Mike McGinn, was also headed last night to a SE Seattle event — inbetween the Highland Park forum and his earlier “town hall” gathering at High Point Library (WSB coverage here). In our clip from his speech, he talks a bit about one of his highest-profile positions – opposition to the deep-bored tunnel replacement plan for the Alaskan Way Viaduct‘s Central Waterfront section:

When local pilot Long Nguyen sent a few more West Seattle aerials the other day, we knew this one would be perfect for today’s preview mentioning that the Westwood Neighborhood Council is meeting for the first time in several months – what you see above (click for a larger view) is Westwood Village in the foreground, with Southwest Athletic Complex, Southwest Community Center, and the Sealth-Denny project beyond. SWCC (2801 SW Thistle) is where the WNC is meeting tonight, 7 pm; here’s the flyer. What should be in the Seattle Public Schools 2010 levy measure? Be at Madison Middle School (3429 45th SW) at 6:30 pm to discuss. More politics today too – West Seattle Democratic Women present a debate between City Attorney Tom Carr and challenger Pete Holmes during their 11:30 am lunch meeting at West Seattle Golf Course (4470 35th SW); call 206-938-5706 this morning to see if there’s still room. And tonight’s the High Point Library (35th/Raymond) reading by “Crow Planet” author Lyanda Lynn Haupt (6:30 pm). Even more on the WSB Events calendar – see for yourself here.

Historical Society: After the time capsule, on to Halloween ghosts

 |   Fun stuff to do | West Seattle history | West Seattle news

Reporting for West Seattle Blog

Andrea Mercado is glowing after the success of the Southwest Seattle Historical Society time capsule project. “This is not for us; it’s for them – the people who are coming after us. It’s really for the kids who were there.” (Like Loren and Clara Peterson, with Mercado in the photo at left from last Saturday’s time-capsule-filling.)

As director of the Log House Museum, Mercado spent a good deal of time with children to complete this project, and several kids helped load up the items to be revealed in 50 years’ time (WSB Saturday coverage here and here).

“The first thing that went into the time capsule was a 7 year-old’s ‘Hello!’ as he spoke the word into the container,” Mercado says. “It was his greeting to the future.”

Next up for the Historical Society: the annual autumn gala. This year – for the first time – the Society presents “Ghosts of the Westside.”

“Nickelsville” update: Showdown ahead?
September 23, 2009 8:41 pm

 |   West Seattle news

(File photo of “Nickelsville” by Christopher Boffoli)
If you’ve wondered what’s up with “Nickelsville,” as the homeless encampment now headquartered at West Seattle’s Terminal 107 Park has been calling itself, we just happened onto a new communique on its website, dated today:

September 22, 2009 – yesterday – was our first full year! Friday will be the anniversary of the day the Nickelsville 25 took their stand and (thanks to them) the rest of us successfully moved to state land.

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 26TH, WE WILL BE CELEBRATING WITH NICKELSVILLE’S 1st BIRTHDAY PARTY! IT’S AT 3 PM AT NICKELSVILLE AND WE’RE LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING YOU AND THE REST OF OUR OLD AND NEW FRIENDS.

On hand will be hamburgers, hot dogs, Leslie’s Nickelsville Birthday Cake, Peggy’s 18 Minute Video of the Highs and Lows of Nickelsville’s first year, music from our many friends and etc.

To speed the cooking of the hamburgers, we are looking for a big new grill that can handle our firewood. After a year, one of our two major grills bit the dust last week.

This is the extent of the good news.

The bad news is that the Port still wants to sweep us next Wednesday – September 30th. While we are grateful for Port Commissioners Tarleton and Creighton for meeting with us last week, no permanent location has been found for us to move to.

Without a permanent location, Nickelsville will not move.

If you believe homeless people should have a place like Nickelsville in Seattle, this is your week to take a stand. You are needed September 30th. Please check in at the Camp any time after first light next Wednesday. For that week (September 30th) only, the Nickelsville Central Committee Meeting (always at 9 AM) will be meeting at Nickelsville. You are invited.

The more our friends are standing with us, the better the chance for a good resolution.

Finally, SHARE’s bus ticket crisis will come to a head the evening of Monday, September 28th. They desperately need drivers to help them reach the homes the local politicians whose sidewalks they will be sleeping in front of until this problem is solved. (Thank you to the 14 drivers who’ve already volunteered to help! Vans and trucks are particularly needed!)

Please give SHARE a call at (206) 448-7889 or (206) 956-0334 if you can help.

We’ll check with the port tomorrow for its official comment.

Spotted pecking and scratching in the shrubbery outside High Point Library right after mayoral candidate Mike McGinn‘s town hall (covered here) – that chicken.

Spotted by Walking On Logs at the Fauntleroy end of The Bridge – decorations we assume have to do with the last two nights’ big concerts:

And thanks to Jackie (plus an unidentified cell-phone-photo sender) for noting the Ivar’s “undersea billboard” pulled from the water off Alki last month is now ashore and above lower Spokane Street just west of 4th:

Happening now: Mike McGinn “town hall” at High Point Library

 |   West Seattle news | West Seattle politics

We’re at High Point Library, where mayoral candidate Mike McGinn has just arrived for his first West Seattle “town hall” meeting. He’s also expected at the Highland Park Action Committee candidate forum at 7 pm tonight (opponent Joe Mallahan had not RSVP’d for that as of last report). He just opened by saying he’s not here to give a speech but to listen and answer questions. We’ll add some notes based on what he says – and what he’s asked. About two dozen people are here.

4:45 PM UPDATE: Pete Spalding from Pigeon Point asked the first question – what would McGinn do to help small businesses survive and thrive? McGinn said he supports raising the B&O tax exemption and making it easier to get permits – also doing more outreach, particularly to small businesspeople from what he described as “other cultures” who might have a hard time understanding the process.

Almost time for Fauntleroy Creek salmon watch – 2 ways to help
September 23, 2009 2:37 pm
|    Comments Off on Almost time for Fauntleroy Creek salmon watch – 2 ways to help
 |   Environment | Fauntleroy | How to help | West Seattle news

It’s hard to see the creek for the trees – but it’s there – that’s the view from the Fauntleroy Creek overlook across from the ferry terminal, looking down toward the water. We have two updates to share from Fauntleroy’s Judy Pickens – first, the spawners may be getting closer, and that means they need people to sign up to keep watch on the creek:

2009 SALMON WATCH INVITES VOLUNTEERS

Reports of large coho being caught off of Bellingham are encouraging that our coho may have survived warm ocean conditions to return to Puget Sound and Fauntleroy Creek. We’ll know more in a few weeks when fishers off of Colman Pool report what they’re catching.

In anticipation, we’re starting to organize the annual salmon watch, whereby volunteers tally spawners and record their condition. Watchers schedule half-hour shifts immediately after high tide. You’ll be trained during your first shift and can come as little or as much as your calendar permits. The watch will start Oct. 26 and go until Thanksgiving.

For questions or to get on the list, contact Judy Pickens at 938-4203 or judy_pickens@msn.com.

Judy also sends word of the drum event that will precede the creek watch – here’s one of our photos from last year, showing Jamie Shilling, who Judy writes will help lead again this year:

jamiecalling.jpg

CALLING ALL DRUMMERS!

The annual drumming to call in spawners to Fauntleroy Creek will be at the fish-ladder viewpoint (SW Director and upper Fauntleroy Way SW) on Sunday, Oct. 25, at 5 PM. Jamie Shilling will lead the singing and drumming, and Randy Sleight will lend his storytelling skills. Bring any kind of drum you have or can devise and join your neighbors in this spirited event for all ages.

Here’s a map to the creek overlook. P.S. One week before Salmon Watch and drumming, it’s the Fauntleroy Fall Festival – 2-6 pm October 18th – with activities including pony rides, arts and crafts, performances, games, dunk tanks, food, on both sides of the “bend in the road” where you’ll find Fauntleroy Church, YMCA, The Hall at Fauntleroy.

That’s Seattle-based author Robert Spector at CAPERS in The Junction last night, talking about his book “The Mom & Pop Store: How the Unsung Heroes of the American Economy Are Surviving and Thriving.” It’s got extra West Seattle significance because several local businesses are mentioned, including Hotwire Coffee (WSB sponsor), Easy Street Records, Husky Deli and Zamboanga. (Spector’s speaking at Town Hall downtown tonight.)

Meantime, a local author who’s gaining new national attention for her latest work will be at High Point Library tomorrow night: We talked with Gatewood’s Lyanda Lynn Haupt in July about her book “Crow Planet” (story here), which has since been reviewed by the New York Times (read that here). She speaks at HP Library (map) at 6:30 pm tomorrow; her appearance is sponsored by Junction independent bookstore Square One Books (WSB sponsor).

Potter Construction: New West Seattle Blog sponsor – welcome!

|    Comments Off on Potter Construction: New West Seattle Blog sponsor – welcome!
 |   West Seattle businesses | West Seattle news

This morning we’re welcoming one of our newest sponsors, Potter Construction. New sponsors are offered the chance to tell you about their business (at right, that’s Gary Potter), and here’s what they would like you to know: Potter Construction has been West Seattle’s trusted source for design/build and home remodeling since 1979. Our long list of satisfied Westside customers can vouch that we live up to our motto of “building peace of mind into every project.” We also have a strong connection to the local community and are involved in a number of local organizations from West Seattle Chamber of Commerce and Rotary to the West Seattle Club and the West Seattle YMCA. We’re all about working, living and giving locally! A lot of our clients first hear about Potter through word of mouth from our past clients or meet us at home and remodeling shows. They like the fact that we are local, we do great work and we have been doing business in West Seattle for 30 years. They also appreciate the importance we place on communication and follow-up — for every major project, we set up a recurring weekly meeting so everything is on the table and any questions can be answered. We hold their hands and walk them through the process so they can set realistic expectations and be educated from the start. One of the most common comments we hear from clients is that our attention to detail, thoroughness and finished work are top notch. We always show up when we say we will, and clean up well before we leave each night. Potter Construction is online at potterconstruction.com; call 206-935-9696, or e-mail here. Thanks to Potter Construction for sponsoring 24/7 independent, community-collaborative neighborhood news here on WSB – the full sponsor team is here, with info on how to join!
