COMMUNITY CONVERSATION WITH MARTY McLAREN: Want to talk to West Seattle’s school-board rep about the BEX IV levy, the new K-5 STEM at Boren school, the superintendent finalists, anything else? She’ll be at Southwest Library (35th/Henderson) 1-2:30 pm today to meet with anybody interested in talking.

METRO ROUTE 120 CHANGES – AND IT’S NOT JUST ABOUT BUSES: An open house 5:30-7:30 pm at Youngstown Cultural Arts Center tonight is meant to gather comments on, and share information about, big changes ahead along this popular route. That includes “rechannelization” for part of Delridge and changes in the spacing of stops along the route. Here’s our preview from Monday, including a link to a survey, if you can’t make it tonight.

‘CRIME PREVENTION THROUGH ENVIRONMENTAL DESIGN’ AT WSBWCN: Community Police Team Officer Jonathan Kiehn is scheduled to bring the West Seattle Blockwatch Captains Network an updated encore pre about multiple ways to make your home less attractive to criminals – in ways you don’t routinely hear about. 6:30 pm, Southwest Precinct (Delridge/Webster).

FREE ‘INTRO TO REIKI’: Tonight at Highland Park Improvement Club, 7:30 pm. Details here.

    will SDOT be at the 120 open house or is the re-channelization a done deal?

    I think this photo is sweet…and sort of romantic – snugglin’ ferns.

Sorry, comment time is over.
