Hi all,
I was walking last night 3/30 on Alki on the water side from the Statue of Liberty to the Alki Beach Pier and back. If anyone finds it, please turn it in at Christo’s or give me a call. 801-201-2606.
Thank you so much.

Your physical requirements are a bit strange. You will have to adjust those due to ADA requirements should the teacher need that. What if the teacher is in a wheelchair, crutches from an injury, or pregnant? They don’t have to sit on the floor to teach. At the end of all those physical requirements you say you are Neighborhood House does not exclude, deny benefits to, or otherwise discriminate on the basis of race, age, sex, color, creed, religion, caste, disability, national origin, marital status, mental or physical ability including HIV status, height, weight, veteran status, military obligations, sexual orientation and expression of gender identity, or any other classification protected by law.

Looking for someone who loves to run and loves to talk about running. You don’t need anything but a passion for the sport, we will teach you everything else. A retail background would be great, but it isn’t necessary. Your job will be to sell shoes and apparel, stock shelves, help with sports bra fittings, keep the store clean, and help customers find the right product. Be able to start and hold a conversation, as that is basic skill for sales. Shy, wall flower types will probably not like the atmosphere, as we require you to start and maintain customer interactions.
We are looking for a full time person 30-40 hours a week, this position may include one weekend day. These are long term positions, at least 12 months or longer, as it takes a while to get trained and able to be help customers independently. Pay starts at $21.30 but is negotiable based on experience. We also offer bonuses based on store sales. PTO accumulation starts the day you start. We also have an employee discount, and a separate family discount. Free race entries for all races we sponsor, and it’s a pretty cool atmosphere to work in, as most customers are happy to be here.

Please drop off a resume in person at the store. We do not respond to emailed resumes unless we have directed you to send it.

The interview will be done during a 3 mile run, so if you get called back, be ready to tell us your favorite 3 mile route! Don’t worry about pace, we will keep it slow (11-12 minute miles) so we can chat.

If you have questions, please drop in and ask them.

Chris at Portal Concrete repaired our concrete front stairs which were just crumbling. It looks beautiful. Portal is a WSBlog advertiser. Just click on their ad or https://buildwithportal.com After the stairs were finished, Chris came back over and over to restain the concrete until we were satisfied with the color.

Lost Something Special? Ring Found Near West Seattle High School 💍

A ring was found recently near West Seattle High School, and we’d love to help reunite it with its owner.

It’s a delicate silver-toned band with repeating stone pattern and vintage-inspired design.

If you think this might be yours, please reach out and describe where you may have lost it and any identifying details so we can make sure it gets back to the right person.

Thanks for helping spread the word!

This may be a long shot, but this wallet was found on the ground of the Jefferson Square parking lot last night. It included the person’s driver’s license, but I couldn’t find her online. I tried turning it in at Bank of America this morning (since there was a card), but they aren’t allowed to take it. I will take it to the police station per their recommendation, but am at work all day.

(If it’s yours, email westseattleblog@gmail.com and we’ll connect you)

I must’ve dropped my house keys around the 2400 block of Alki Ave SW (or perhaps in the back alley) Sunday night around 10pm. We thought we had them until this evening when we realized we last saw them that night.

Gold key, 2 silver, and 1 red. As well as a keychain from Washington Parks and a lime/bright yellow glow in the dark cylindrical fob.

Hi Carrington,

My name is Najma and I’m based in Seattle. I came across your post about the studio assistant role and was really excited by the opportunity to support the inner workings of an active art practice.

My background is in operations, branding, and project coordination. I co-founded a design and branding studio and have spent the past several years organizing programs, managing logistics, and building systems that help creative projects run smoothly. I really enjoy the behind-the-scenes work of creating structure, managing workflows, and supporting a creative vision.

I’m also someone who appreciates art and storytelling, so the chance to contribute to a growing studio environment feels especially exciting. I’d love to learn more about your current projects and how I could help support the studio’s day-to-day operations.

Looking forward to connecting.

I’m available whenever for an interview and my email is ugcbynajma@gmail.com

Best,
Najma

Hi Carrington

I’m a local artist and nonprofit administrator here in West Seattle. For the past few years, I’ve been managing a local nonprofit community theatre, “Blue Hour Theatre Group“. I produce marketing materials, secure grants, and run front-of-house during performances. I love working directly with patrons, cast, and crew, ensuring they have a good experience and feel taken care of from start to finish.

Most recently, I designed the new website for the West Seattle Art Tour. I also design sites and assist with social media marketing for individual artists and small businesses.

I believe my background working behind the scenes, along with my passion for the arts, align nicely with your needs.

Yours

Hello Carrington & team,

My name is Christopher Parks and I would love to be considered for your studio assistant position. I grew up here in Seattle, and currently manage a bakery in Wallingford. I have spent many years making art, I had an amazing teacher in prep school who first fostered a great love for all mediums(but watercolor is my favorite). I went to the summer program at RISD, did a stint at Cornish and have spent many hours in the different programs available here in Seattle. I have always loved the beautiful mix of artists here in the PNW, and would love to get to work alongside you! I have strong organization and inventory skills from 10+ years in the food industry but am looking to pivot back to art as my main focus in my day to day. Thank you for your time!

A great option for a memorable kid’s party cake is to focus on something fun and collectible, not just the cake itself. Camp Hollow offers whimsical cake toppers like the Pink Goose, crafted from hand-painted porcelain, which can really elevate a simple cake and make it the centerpiece of the party. These toppers are heirloom-quality and come in a gift box, so even after the cake is gone, it becomes a keepsake. Pairing a standard bakery cake sized for 20–25 people with a playful Camp Hollow topper adds both charm and personality without relying on overly sweet or generic options. It’s also perfect for a theme party or any celebration where kids will love the fun detail.

Hello! We’ve boarded our almost 20-year-old green cheek conure at Denise’s Parrot Place (myparrot.com) most of his life. It’s on Mercer Island, but that’s the closest place that our vet will recommend and they’ve always been wonderful—and Mercer Is isn’t all that far. We’ve also boarded at Mochi’s Tree House but that’s up in Bothell, which IS far from West Seattle, but they’re also great! Currently Denise’s is building out in their new space so it feels a bit more rough around the edges (there was a fire in the strip mall down the street where they were originally for years, they had smoke damage, they had to keep the business going for the parrots so they found a new unfinished space quickly). Anyway, we love them, plus there’s a great bakery a couple of storefronts down! Good luck!

Hoping to find a regular handyman for a series of projects around the house. It has to be someone who’s comfortable working along me and my hubby. First needs are next week on Thursday and Friday, the 19th and 20th – helping hubby move furniture downstairs (dressers, nightstands, mattress, and bed) and then starting demo of our upstairs (large bedroom, small bedroom, hall, tiny bathroom, partial chimney stack). Once we find the right person, there will be many other days of work as the house is going to be a nearly total gut job, broken up into phases and then built back again. Hubby can handle the electrical, but we’d love a hand with framing, drywall, and many other things.

This house is from 1917. Who knows what we’ll find when we tear it apart? There’s no insulation in the walls, some old knob and tube upstairs, literally no idea what else we’ll find.

We value knowledge, flexibility, and patience.

Please email me to reply: shopattack@pm.me – Thanks! Christy

My neighbor was shouldered after getting off the bus on at the delridge station. The perpetrator walked towards him in a purposefully diagonal route, proceeded to shoulder him, stunning him. At least a younger teen called out the perpetrator as he fled onto the bus.

Based on recent social media posts, shouldering assaults have occurred in Japan to young women not aware of their surroundings (distracted by their phone), allegedly by disgruntled men usually in crowded areas where the perpetrators can easily flee afterwards.

Lately, there seems to be more panhandlers throughout west seattle junctions. It’s concerning that petty crimes may occurring more often in west seattle.

Please be aware and be safe.
