Community Building Across Generations at the Briarcrest Neighborhood meeting

"Community Building Across Generations" is the topic of the Briarcrest Neighborhood Association's June 12 meeting.  

Judy Kinney of North East Seattle Together (NEST) and Jan Stewart of the SWEL TimeBank (Shoreline Woodway, Edmonds and Lake Forest Park) will describe these two new models for community building. Their presentations will be followed by a discussion of how to make Briarcrest a community where neighbors can age in place. 

The meeting will begin at 7 pm at Seattle Congregational Church, 15518 27th Ave NE. There are no stairs barring access to the fellowship hall at the rear of the church. 

Briarcrest is a mostly residential neighborhood in southeast Shoreline, bounded by NE 145th Street, Bothell Way, 15th Avenue NE, and NE 168th Street. It has about 2500 residents. Its business areas and bus routes are on its periphery, mostly along Bothell Way and 15th, leaving residents a long hike to necessary services.
