REMINDER to Wallingford residents: Garbage, recycling, and yard waste pickup will be one hour earlier – 6:00 am – this Friday, October 28. The earlier pickup time is in response to the viaduct closure and is only for Seattle residents living north of the Ship Canal and west of I-5.
If you really want to reduce the size of your garbage can, plus make your garbage can less “fragrant,” put all of your food scraps into your yard/food waste container. Any food item without any plastic or foil wrapping can go in your yard/food waste container. One exception …
This is Juan — a former staff member at the Wallingford Boys and Girls Club — covered in Cool Whip. Juan was a Wallingford Boys and Girls Club member since he was 10, then he became a counselor, and now he’s a freshman at WSU.

Creaming the counselor is only one of the many fun activities offered at the Halloween Hoopla, and this year the Wallingford Boys and Girls Club …

Metro Transit has laid out a new proposal to streamline service in September 2012 to coincide with the launch of its new C and D “RapidRide” lines. The proposal includes replacing Route 26 with service on Route 16 and Route 31 (moving the 31 from Stone Way N. at 35th to Wallingford Avenue N.), and adding new Route 32 (serving Interbay to the U-District via Wallingford Avenue N. and N. 40th) and Route 63 (replacing the 26 between N. 40th and East Green Lake via Latona and Thackeray). The 26 Express would still remain in service. You can find all …
