On Monday, July 4th, the North Seattle Transfer Station – located on North 35th Street east of Stone Way – will be closed for all services. The South Seattle Recycling & Disposal Station, in the South Park neighborhood, will be open regular business hours (from 8a – 5:30p,) however. Seattle garbage, food & yard waste, and recycling collections will be on normal schedule on Monday, July 4th, a Federal holiday.
Yes, Saturday, July 2nd starting at 2p is all about zombie culture, zombie fun and brains – for you. But for the Fremocentrist.com, this year’s Red, White & Dead fest – particularly the annual Zombie Walk through Fremont that begins its lurch at 6p – is about securing our World Record. So, slather on some fake blood, slip on a something worn and ripped (you know you were going to anyway…) and stagger down to North 35th Street & Phinney Avenue North for an afternoon zombie party!
As usual, the Fremont First Friday Art Walk (this month on July 1st) contains too much to see, do and experience during its much too short window, from 6p to 9p. Solution? Review the offerings (always listed in advance on the website) and plot a course.
Every month the North Precinct Advisory Council meets at North Seattle Community College (usually in the meeting room off the cafeteria) to allow citizen representatives to meet with members of the Seattle Police Department with any concerns, comments or crime reports their community groups choose to send along. The NPAC also distributes information, including a list of public safety phone numbers and websites for 2011.
On Sunday, June 26th, from 2p – 4p, History House of Greater Seattle (790 N 34th) will present another concert in the seventh season of the Music In The Sculpture Garden series.

On Saturday, June 25th, Silence-Heart-Nest will be closed while the staff attends a one-day retreat. The restaurant will open regular hours again on Sunday, June 26th – just in time for brunch! On their e-newsletter, they also mentioned new menu items…
On Sunday, June 26th, the doors open at 7p, as local artists gather to perform a tribute concert for Ron Davies, the talented song writer who passed away. The show also launches the release of a CD of 18 of Davies’ songs, recorded by fans and friends. The concert, at Hale’s Palladium (4301 Leary Way NW,) will feature the considerable talents of many local musicians and performers.
On Saturday, June 25th, from 10:30-11:15 a.m., youngsters, and their parents, are welcome to join in the fun as Dusty Strings hosts a family concert, featuring Caspar Babypants. Arrive early for this free show, to make sure the children have enough room to dance and sing along!

Fremocentrist.com has heard that nearly 50 art cars, the ones on display during the Fremont Fair as the Seattle Art Car Blowout, will meet at Macrina Bakery (1943 First Avenue South) on Sunday morning, June 19th, for donut jousting and a truly Seattle experience – coffee – for those art car-ists visiting from across the U.S. and Canada.
