Come join us on Sunday, October 2nd, 2022 for the Washington CeaseFire 5k Run / Walk!
We are very excited to have this year's event at beautiful Green Lake Park in Seattle! It's more important than ever for individuals and families to show support for, and solidarity with, the growing grassroots movement to make our communities and schools safer.
We will follow the 5k event with our annual Day of Remembrance ceremony, where we plant daffodil bulbs (donated by Sunnyside Nursery) in commemoration of victims of gun violence. (NOTE: Register early to guarantee T-Shirt availability)
Since 1983, Washington Ceasefire, a nonprofit organization, has been working towards implementing reasonable solutions to reduce the toll of gun violence in Washington State. Net proceeds from the run/walk will be used to support initiatives, programs, and policies dedicated to reducing gun violence.
Whenever I ponder summer blooming shrubs, two have been and always will be at the front of my mind… Roses and Hydrangeas – as nothing will beat either of these for length of flowering time, all the way until frost… There is never anything wrong with more of either, but what else can I choose that will add some seasonal interest to the summer garden?…
