Seafair weekend means a quieter calendar here in the neighborhood, but we do have a few notes for you:

[This is NEXT Saturday!] RIVERSIDE WALKING TOUR: 10 am-noon, Riverside native Frank Zuvela leads the Southwest Seattle Historical Society’s annual walking tour of this historic neighborhood near the Duwamish River. Admission by donation; $5 suggested. (Meet at Riverside Memorial, West Marginal Way SW/SW Marginal Place)

BARBECUE BENEFIT: 11 am-3:45 pm, West Seattle Thriftway (WSB sponsor) is grilling hot dogs and hamburgers to raise money to help pets in shelters. Look for the tent outside the entrance. (California/Fauntleroy)

SEAFAIR – SHIP TOURS & BLUE ANGELS AGAIN TODAY: See last night’s story for times and viewing suggestions, if you’re not going to the official viewing zone on Lake Washington. And remember the I-90 bridge will close again, 1:15-2:40 pm, during the Blue Angels’ performance.

LOG HOUSE MUSEUM: More West Seattle history! Noon-4 pm are today’s regular hours at the Alki museum where the SWSHS is headquartered. (61st SW/SW Stevens)

NO ALKI LIGHTHOUSE TOURS THIS WEEKEND: Seafair weekend means U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary volunteers are busy elsewhere, so the lighthouse is closed to the public this weekend.

COMEDY FUNDRAISER: Comedy Court presents the Carb-Free Cabaret at South Seattle College (WSB sponsor) Brockey Center, 7 pm, raising money for the Juvenile Diabetes Foundation. Details here. (6000 16th SW)

‘SKYFALL’ @ WEST SEATTLE OUTDOOR MOVIES: This week’s movie is at dusk (9ish) in the courtyard at Hotwire Online Coffeehouse (WSB sponsor), but you’ll want to be there much earlier, not just to snag a seat (bring your own chair/blanket), but also for James Bond trivia – WSB co-publisher Patrick has put together the questions, and there are prizes, donated by Hotwire, Pecos Pit BBQ (WSB sponsor), and Full Tilt Ice Cream. No dogs, please, for their comfort and moviegoers – the courtyard has been so packed this season (new location starts in 2 weeks!) that there is just no place to roam. (4410 California SW)
