Fix-It Night at the Shoreline Tool Library
Wednesday, June 18 
5:00 PM - 8:00 PM
Shoreline Tool Library
It’s time to start collecting all those items around the house that need to be fixed but you don’t know how. We are having a fixing night at the new Shoreline Tool Library. We will help you fix and learn to fix your broken tools, lamps, toys, furniture, appliances, and any other broken items that you can carry in on your own. We encourage you to help as much as you can and enjoy the community of reuse! If you are excited about fixing and want to help out with this event or other fixing opportunities we are looking for more fixers. Sign up to help out at this event here or join our list of fixers by sending us an email at ShorelineTL@seattlereconomy.org.

Ridgecrest Garage Sale Day
Saturday, June 21 
8:00 AM - 3:00 PM
Tabernacle Baptist Church
The Tabernacle Baptist Church (16508 8th Ave NE) will host its annual parking lot sale from 8 a.m.-3 p.m. on Saturday, June 21. If you want to sell your items, call (206) 362-8363 to reserve a free table (and bring a tent to keep things dry in case of rain). The church will be barbecuing hotdogs and RNA will have an information booth. This is also a day when many Ridgecrest neighbors host yard sales at their own homes, so carve out a few extra hours to roam the neighborhood for new-to-you treasures!
 
Let's Walk Shoreline from Shoreline to Shoreline
Saturday, June 21 
10:00 AM - 3:00 PM
RSVP here for more information
Join Urbanist Shoreline for a walk across Shoreline, from shoreline to shoreline!
We'll start at Lyon Creek Waterfront Preserve (yes, technically in Lake Forest Park) and end at Richmond Beach Saltwater Park. Exact route is TBD but we will probably be walking around 8 miles. We will take our time, stopping to look different pedestrian infrastructure and other sites of interest. You are welcome to meet us along the way, at the 185th Street Link Station stop, the Shoreline Farmers Market, or another location. Beach picnic at the end! This will be a long walk but is not meant to be a major athletic event - the pace will be leisurely and all are welcome! If you want to join, please tell us what you need to make this a fun community experience for you!
