The big story is that our fundraiser proceeds this year will go to support the planting of our second phase of the Native Plant Garden at Drew Nielsen Park. Northwest Neighborhood holds the first Memorandum of Understanding with the Parks Department to plant and maintain the garden. Northwest Neighborhood Association funds are sponsoring the garden, not the city. Our costs are around $5000 so we are seeking the support of neighbors to help us pay for plants, irrigation, and topsoil. There will be an opportunity to donate to the association for the garden at the park during the day of MOAGS. Neighborhood volunteers will be hosting a donation based plant sale. Our planting day will take place on Saturday, September 9 and we welcome volunteers to help in the effort. The new garden bed will be on the south edge of the park along 13th Street.

Here are a few more things to know.

  • About 100 families with fabulous treasures for sale!
  • Information station and sponsor information booths at Drew Nielsen Park (1230 Colby, Everett, WA 98201)
  • Port-a-potties at Drew Nielsen Park and other locations noted on the map
  • Legion Park (real bathrooms — north end of neighborhood)
  • 1122 Grand Ave at the curb (#7)
  • 1501 Rucker Ave (#23) in the alley
  • Road Dawg (hot dogs) at Drew Nielsen Park
  • Other food throughout neighborhood – 1302 Grand has Tamales as a fundraiser, Pisces Pie Baking Company at 1502 Rucker
  • There are many restaurants on Broadway, and also on the waterfront accessible by the Grand Avenue Park Bridge at 16th Street
  • CASH IS KING – Have a variety of bills. It’s not uncommon for nearby ATMs to run out of cash. Some neighbors are using Venmo or PayPal, but be prepared with cash

    • Please, during the event we ask, No double parking. Drive slowly so all pedestrians are safe. Remember that on Grand Avenue you can only park on the east side of the street facing north.
