U District Street Fair

I volunteered for Mayor Bruce Harrel's One Seattle Day of Service. The description of this task was "advocacy". I did not realize until I got there that today was also the street fair. I asked people to come into the booth and use the ping pong ball I gave to vote for which of six options they thought the organization should advocate for.

There were many interesting and friendly people there. Next to us was a booth for the Unity Museum. While Cory went to get me a tee-shirt, I met with Zabine who it turns out was the executive directior of the museum, she is Bahai and I was interested in that religion so we had a nice talk. Also she speak wonderful German and that is always a real treat. She then insisted on introducing me to Amy who is also on the board of the museum. It was a wonderful day, so if you can do it get out there and volunteer for a day or two a year.

 

I see I failed to pull my scarf completely out of the tee-shirt, oh well.
