Please join NWSFS for our May Social at the home of Yvonne and Eric Pawtowski on Saturday, May 18st.Yvonne and Eric have hosted this social for the last 10 years so it’s a fannish anniversary.

The social will begin around 5 PM and continue until around 10 PM, or whenever we get tired.

 

7100 187th Place SW, Lynnwood, WA 98037

(425) 771-1626

 

Nominations will be opened at this social for the officers of NWSFS / SFN:  Chair, Vice Chair and Treasurer.  If you cannot make the social and wish to nominate someone in advance, please contact in...@nwsfs.com

 

This is a potluck, so bring your contribution of a main dish, side dish, munchies, or dessert. BYOB if you want something particular, although some basic beverages will be available. NWSFS members are encouraged to attend, and non-members in the SF/Fannish community are welcome, as always. We hope to see you there.

 

There will be a grill running.  The Pawtowskis will be cooking some extra sausages and dogs to share.  Anyone who wants to bring stuff to grill is quite welcome.  There is a small hot tub, covered, which may be operational, weather permitting. 

 

The main television has a VGA input and will likely be used to display photos of interest.  If you have electronic photos to share, from Fannish events, the previous Norwescon, or whatever, please bring them.

 

Logistics: There is parking on the street near the house.  Parking in the driveway is okay, you don't need to worry about blocking anyone in.  Usually it's not hard to find parking.  The neighborhood has a lot of hills, so be careful. There are three stairs leading to both entrances.  The back door doesn't have stairs, but the path is too narrow for a wheelchair, and possibly more trouble than it's worth. There are no domesticated animals living there. Smoking is outside only, please.

 

Buses:

The closest major P&R/TC is the Aurora Village Transit Center, which has connections to King County Metro and Community Transit including Swift.

The nearest Community Transit Swift stops are (NB)Heron at Hwy 99 and 200th St SW or (SB)Crossroads at Hwy 99 and 200th St SW (1.4 mile walk).

The next closest P&R/TC is Lynnwood Transit Center, which has connections to Sound Transit and Community Transit (but not Swift).  Routes 115 & 116 will get you to the Edmonds Community College Transit Center (1.3 mile walk).

The third closest P&R/TC is Mountlake Terrace Transit Center, with connections to King County Metro, Sound Transit, and Community Transit (not Swift).  Route 119 will get you to Olympic View Dr & 73rd Ave W (0.2 mile walk through or around the park).

Interesting....looking at wedding gift guidelines I see that the Traditional gift is Tin or Aluminum....and depending on what list you find on the interwebby the modern gift is Leather or Diamond.  I am not sure how to merge these into one gift....maybe a tiara...
 
I wonder what Vicki Glover could come up with?
 
Oh, and today, May 18, is the 23rd anniversary of the Mt St Helens eruption.   (Modern is silver plate.)
