Meet Me at the Park activities at Lynnwood’s Wilcox Park start July 13.
This week, my kids went to camp. It was pretty exciting to get a taste of the before-times and see kids find familiar faces and new friends even though they’re still wearing masks and some camp activities have been amended to follow safety guidelines. We are also starting to see more and more of the traditional local summer events including outdoor summer movies, Lynnwood’s Meet Me at the Park, and the Edmonds Sand Sculpting Contest.
Lynnwood Parks and Recreation is celebrating 10 years in their new building and they want you to celebrate too! They have eight themed weeks of summer left, (themes include STEM Week, National Night Out and Scavenger Hunt week). Plus there’s also Meet Me at the Park: Community Health and Resource Fair and Sandlot Summer Cinemas outdoor movies, which both incorporate the weekly themes.

The Rotary Club of Alderwood Terrace has selected its Edmonds School District Educators of the Month for December.
The role of Student Intervention Coordinator requires the ability to make use of many skills: To listen, problem solve and support people in times of crisis. To that extent, Angie Peters has excelled at Mountlake Terrace Elementary School.
“Angie does this daily in small and grand ways,” Principal Mary Williams said. “She takes time to calmly listen to students who are struggling; she uses her knowledge of human behavior to support during escalation; she listens when other staff need a safe person; she finds solutions that will meet the needs of our students and families.”
