Another reminder earlier than Monday arrives: The largest vacation occasion in West Seattle is the 4th of July Children’ Parade. Even for those who’re not planning to take part or watch, do not forget that the parade crosses California Avenue SW on the best way to the ending level, Hamilton Viewpoint Park, and that often means no less than temporary site visitors stops. It begins at forty fourth/Sundown [map] simply after 10 am, with the Nationwide Anthem and some phrases from organizers, after which SFD’s North Admiral-based Engine 29 and the legendary blue pickup truck – the one motorized individuals – paved the way. The route heads a brief distance west earlier than turning south after which east towards the park, the place children’ actions and sack races await. Extra specifics are in our earlier preview right here, for those who missed it. Occasions on the park wrap up round midday. (Newest forecast suggests the climate will enhance to “partly sunny.”) The parade’s been a practice for greater than a quarter-century!
