One more sign of spring! The West Seattle High School PTSA has announced that online registration is open for this year’s West Seattle 5K – third year that runners of all ages will hit the road on Alki Avenue SW. This year’s date is Sunday, May 22nd. You can sign up, and find out more about the 5K, by going here. According to the WSHS January newsletter, this also will be an all-day “Seattle Summer Streets” event again, with Alki Avenue SW shut down to traffic for the afternoon after the race (we’re doublechecking this with SDOT).

8:37 PM NOTE: SDOT’s Rick Sheridan did confirm to WSB that this WILL be a Seattle Summer Streets today – so Alki Avenue SW will close to traffic for the whole day on May 22nd, continuing after the race is over, as it has previously.

they are still doing ‘summer streets?’
with all the budget woes I would think that is a perfect opportunity to cut costs, especially considering there are other events in the city and West Seattle where the streets are closed down for a fun community event.

Sorry, comment time is over.
