On Wednesday, May 27, 2009 the Gilbert and Sullivan Society will present a dress rehearsal for their summer show “Utopia” at the Crown Hill Center. This is free and open to the Crown Hill community. The neighborhood is welcoming the Gilbert and Sullivan society as they move into rehearsal space, set design shops, and office space at the Crown Hill Center. Their big move-in will not be until October 2009 but they are getting started here with rehearsals for their summer production. The polished show will be presented in July at the Bagley Wright Theatre. Come on out on May 27 at 7 p.m. for a special, free treat of musical theatre.

Earth Day event in our neighborhood
Crown Hill neighbors are urged to join the Earth Day event on April 17 in our neighborhood. Carkeek Park is setting up teams that will fan out on our streets surrounding the park and do three things: (1) stencil on storm drains the caution about dumping waste, (2) distribute one-page flyers to homes regarding pet waste, and (3) pick up trash along roadways and in public spaces.
What’s up with stenciling drains? There are over 100 storm drains in the Piper’s Creek watershed that send stormwater through the Park and into Puget Sound. Runoff from roads and gutters contributes lots of gunk to Puget Sound every year. Studies show that marking storm drains with the message “Dump No Waste, Drains to Stream” doubles community awareness.
Come to the Park’s Environmental Education Center at 8:30 a.m. to get matched up with a 3-5 person team, pick up supplies, and get your assignment of streets to cover. Just a few hours of work, then an Earth Day celebration with pizza at noon. Bring work gloves and remember to dress for all sorts of weather.
It is helpful if you register in advance by calling 386-9154 to help Park staff figure appropriate numbers of stencils, trash bags, etc.
