Summer has come to an end; and with the changing of the season, we close another
chapter of outdoor events that have come to define summers in the Pacific Northwest.
Nonetheless, when one door closes, another opens and with that, we are given an
opportunity to enjoy the vast array of Autumn activities that are also unique to our region.
I have updated my Local Community Events Calendar found online at:
http://www.davidjedwards.com/events-calendar.asp
There are literally hundreds of events on the calendar. Some of the most recent
additions include:
Clam Lights - Friday November 30th - Free!
Start your holiday season off with an evening of entertainment, holiday spirit,
and stunning visual effects. A fun event for young and old alike. Co-sponsored by Ivar's Inc., and the City of Renton,
this event draws thousands of spectators each year.
6:30 PM - Entertainment
7:15 PM - Official "Clam Lights" Lighting - Don't miss the 14th annual Clam
Lights event at Coulon Beach Park. What started as a small lighting display has now expanded to an event that draws
thousands of people each season with its wondrous array of lighting. The magic begins when the main switch is thrown to
transform Gene Coulon Beach Memorial Beach Park into a winter wonderland. Marvel at the lighting on the buildings, trees,
shrubbery, and walkways. See Clam Lights nightly through January 1st.
7:30 PM - "Parade of Boats" - Welcome the arrival of the Rainier Yacht Club's
lighted boat parade. Each boat is decked out in the spirit of the season, and will surely be a thrill for all.
Argosy Christmas Ship - Monday December 3rd - Free!
Featuring entertainment by a local northwest choir, the Christmas Ship will be just off the shores of Gene Coulon Memorial
Beach Park from 6:00 to 6:20 PM. The ship's annual visit draws an audience of thousands and is sure to put you in the
holiday spirit. This event is free!
Breakfast with Santa - Saturday December 8th
Children ages 2 to 12 are invited to a special Saturday breakfast with Santa. Parents, grandparents, and kids can enjoy a
fabulous breakfast and wonderful entertainment. Children must be accompanied by an adult. The breakfast and program are
prepared with the help of Renton Senior Activity Center volunteers. Two seatings, 9:00 AM and 12:00 PM are available.
