West Seattle Friday: Six highlights for today/tonight

Wonderful sunrise today – thanks to those who shared photos! The one above is courtesy of Don Brubeck, taken along the Alki Trail. A few notes, including highlights from the WSB West Seattle Event Calendar and Holiday Guide:

‘FLASH MOB’ FOR USPS WORKERS: As announced here earlier this morning, you’re invited to show up for a show of appreciation at the Junction Post Office at noon today – old-school “flash mob” style (no, you don’t have to dance, but you can sing a few lines!). (4412 California SW)

POST-HOLIDAY ‘GARAGE SALE’: WSB sponsor Junction TrueValue continues its big post-Christmas sale, including storewide closeouts and big discounts on Christmas decorations/lights to stock up in advance of next year. Look for updates on the JTV Facebook page. (44th/Edmunds)

SCHOOL OPENING: A new preschool called Alki Beach Academy celebrates its opening at 5 pm, with Caspar Babypants on hand to perform. (2414 SW Andover)

LIVE MUSIC AT C & P COFFEE: Roy H. Kauffman performs original songs at C & P Coffee Company (WSB sponsor), 7-9 pm. (5612 California SW)

WSHS BASKETBALL ON THE ROAD: We’ve heard that some West Seattleites read WSB while out of town to keep up with what’s up – so we’re mentioning that if you happen to be visiting the Wenatchee area, you can root for West Seattle High School in the Wenatchee Holiday Classic, one game each today and tomorrow. Tonight: 7 pm at Wenatchee High School.

SNOW LOVERS’ HOLIDAY PARTY: 8 pm at nearby Pershing Hall, join Mountain to Sound Outfitters for a holiday party geared to everybody who loves snow and snow sports; admission by donation to benefit the Northwest Avalanche Center. Details in our calendar listing. (3618 SW Alaska)

LIVE MUSIC AT SKYLARK CAFE & CLUB: The Feelgood Band of the Year and Snaketopus, 9 pm. (3803 Delridge Way SW)

    I’m always hearing about things first here on WSB. thanks. FYI- they are also having a food drive at the new preschool open house.

    so, if you want to find out BEFORE your husband goes to the grocery store instead of AFTER, there you go….

      Thanks, Sam. We didn’t get word of this until the last minute so the best I could do was a mention here in the daily preview.

    no it’s all good- I was just mentioning for anyone else who may want to go.
    (oh, the food drive is for west seattle food bank.)
    I am glad I found out in time!

    That photo is evocative of Turner’s landscapes.

Sorry, comment time is over.
