Topic: Net fishing at Alki
Hello,
I was on Alki and saw a guy in a smaller fishing boat with huge fishing net, tied to the shore. Never saw this before. Used strong binoculars and saw a younger, blond male, (smoking) on the boat. Is fishing on this scale allowed on Alki???Dear Neighbors,
The Lafayette Elementary 2023-2024 school year is off and running after a fantastic summer! We need your help to make this the best year yet. The Lafayette PTA is planning to provide extra support for students to meet reading and math goals while continuing to bring the school and neighborhood community together. We have an ambitious goal of raising over $200,000 to fill the gap between funding provided by the district and the needs of the school. The Lafayette PTA uses its budget to support Lafayette students, staff, and in-school programs. Examples of items the Lafayette PTA pays for include:
Tutors
Classroom & student school supplies
Instrumental music
Field trip and camp scholarships
Student Government Activities
Technology
Science, Technology, Engineering, Art & Math (STEAM) program supplies
Community building family events
School garden program
Much more!So how can YOU or your organization help? Sponsor one of our largest school fundraisers, the annual Lafayette Move-A-Thon! On November 3rd, over 500 students and cheering family members will take to the blacktop to support the school. In support of their efforts, a Lafayette Sponsorship is a great way to get much needed funds into the Lafayette PTA and also benefit your organization by gaining exposure with the Lafayette and the West Seattle community. Getting your organization’s name and/or logo on the Lafayette website, in the front window, on event bibs, and shared on all of our social media sites is a great way to show your support for the children of West Seattle.
If a monetary donation isn’t in the cards we are also looking for prize donations to support the kids in raising funds for the PTA. Each child is tasked with asking friends and family for Move-A-Thon donations. Students are incentivized to fund raise with fun prizes for: top earning student, top earning classroom, etc. Please let us know if you’re interested in also donating fun prizes.
Are you ready to make a difference?

Topic: is there a search function?
There are over 3900 topics… I don’t want to look at ~4,000 topics to find someone who can build stairs. Is there a search function I am not seeing? Or an organized table of contents? I thought there used to be a TOC…
Thanks!FREE Modern extending dining room table from Ligne Roset. The table is called Extensia. When collapsed it is 55X37 inches and when extended it is 102X37. There is a clever nesting action of the glass so no leaves to store. The wood is either a beech or light oak (I cant tell for sure). It is in extremely good condition. Roughly 25 years old, originally purchased from Ligne Roset in Seattle. Located near Lincoln Park. I can send photos of actual table or you can look here for a similar table:

Josiah, the owner(local)and his employees were wonderful. I have 2 big cedars, fir and a spruce. He cleaned out all the dead branches all the way to the tops. He did around the power lines. My trees hang way out over the street, he brought those “back” just enough. My neighbors are happy too.
The trees branches now have light and are just beautiful. The clean up was impeccable too.

We are looking to move in November. We have references and excellent rental history. We have been looking on Zillow and other platforms, but not all independent landlords use those sites so we are also posting here.
