NEIGHBORHOODS: Alki Community Council shifts June meeting plan
Yes, summer is busy, but if you can spare just an hour and a half for your neighborhood, the Alki Community Council would love to see you this month. But this month’s meeting date is shifting, so don’t show up this Thursday, which would be the regular third-Thursday date! This excerpt from the ACC newsletter explains:
In recognition of Juneteenth, a federal holiday that marks the end of slavery in our nation, we are shifting our next Alki Community Council meeting to the following Thursday night to allow our Black, Indigenous, and neighbors of all colors the space and opportunity to celebrate and reflect on this important day. Juneteenth recognizes the delayed liberation that followed the Emancipation Proclamation over 161 years ago. It remains a time to acknowledge the enduring impact of this history on our nation and local communities. …
Mark your Calendar: Our June meeting is Thursday, June 27 at 7:00 PM — stay tuned for Zoom details as we also lock in onsite details. You can look forward to Alki Holiday Lights and Alki Beach Pride Festival news + volunteer opportunities to start… Bring your Alki neighborhood concerns, ideas and we’ll do our best to connect you and your passion to make a difference.
