Mark your calendar for a community celebration in honor of Delridge’s Neighborhood District Coordinator Ron Angeles. Delridge community advocate Pete Spalding of Pigeon Point shares the news tonight, confirming what we had heard rumblings about … that Ron is retiring from his longtime job at the Department of Neighborhoods. That’s Ron at right in a photo from last November, when Pete won a People’s Choice Award from Seattle CityClub. Pete says everyone is welcome to come wish Ron well and celebrate his decades of work on behalf of Delridge; it’ll be a potluck party at Youngstown Cultural Arts Center, 6-8 pm February 24th. Pete says, “Since Ron is all about community building, we want to make sure that the community has an opportunity to come out and express their gratitude to Ron for his many years of dedicated service to our Delridge community. Everyone who lives/works/plays in Delridge comes into contact with some of Ron’s work on a regular basis without realizing it.” You’re also welcome to join Ron, Pete, and other eastern West Seattle community leaders at the Delridge Neighborhood District Council’s next meeting this coming Wednesday night (February 16), 7 pm, also at Youngstown (4408 Delridge Way SW).
