For the third year in a row, Shoreline Council of Neighborhoods volunteers worked with the City of Shoreline Adopt A Trail @ the Interurban.

Sunday, August 26, 2012 we had volunteers from the new Fred Meyer Volunteer program the store has just begun funding. Their volunteers chose, with a great attitude, to follow the Council of Neighborhoods volunteers to the Interurban Trail to weed between the bridges. 

We had valuable interchanges with representatives about Fred Meyer's new program to give back to their community. 

We discussed many opportunities in the future for the Council of Neighborhoods to partner with Fred Meyer. They were also very interested in the New Beginnings project where Arthur Peach, CoN Board Member, has raised over $15,000 in donations in the last few years for domestic violence organizations.

CoN volunteer Patty Dooley was so inspired by their volunteer spirit that she ran to get treats and drinks for all participants. Everyone is also inspired by Patty's loyal ambassador to many Council of Neighborhoods events, Magnolia the dog, a very special tripod she rescued from PAWS.

Please join us September 16th, 11am at Denny's parking lot, near the Signature Bridges at 155th and Aurora to help us make the City of Shoreline the best place to live!
