Here & there: Let's welcome wildlife into our lives
I've limited my personal zoo to one dog, one cat, one horse and one husband, but as you can see, I like animal people. So I'm pretty sure I'd get on like a house afire with the organizers of the seventh annual Backyard Wildlife Festival in Tukwila, Wash., this year sporting the theme "Gardening for Global Warming."

Community Involvement: The Rallying Cry of the Faithful Can Make an Event
There’s no question that a sports event planner’s number one goal when organizing an event is that it be a success. But, what defines a successful event, and is there a magic formula for success? Sports event planners have told SportsEvents over the course of the year that it’s not just one of those things, or a combination of them, but it can sometimes be the little things—the intangibles—that “make” an event.http://www.sportseventsmagazine.com/community.html

Seattle Southside Welcomes Visitors
Featuring visitor favorites like The Museum of Flight, the west coast’s largest aviation museum, the Southside travel itineraries also feature lesser known but acclaimed attractions like the Hydroplane and Raceboat Museum, dedicated to the history of race boats. Cultural attractions like the Great Wall Mall, a unique Asian shopping experience, makes the cut – as does Kent’s Historic Downtown shopping district where quaint streets and small shops flourish.

The Faces: A world of intriguing contrasts awaits your meeting in Washington State
Sweeping down and across the northwest corner of the Lower 48, Washington is a place that presents two faces. Geographically, the state is divided roughly into two by the north–south Cascades. Likewise, there’s a duality to the Washington mindset.
