The show starts at 6 p.m. It is sponsored by Arlington Parks &Recreation with performers from the Monroe-based Last Leaf Productions. For more information, go to www.lastleaf99.0rg. Shows also are planned later this summer in Monroe, Mukilteo and Seattle.

Fill the boot in Mukilteo: Mukilteo firefighters plan a Fill the Boot fundraiser Friday and Saturday for the Muscular Dystrophy Association. They’ll be accepting donations from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. those days at the Mukilteo Speedway QFC and the ferry holding lanes.

National night out: Learn about crime prevention and community partnerships at Marysville’s annual National Night Out Against Crime event Aug. 4. The Marysville police and fire departments, along with community organizations, will participate in the free event from 6 to 8 p.m. at Comeford Park, 514 Delta Ave.

“It’s important to bring our community together to share ways they can be partners in crime prevention,” said police Chief Rick Smith. “National Night Out is one way of educating our families about ways they can keep themselves and their neighborhoods safe.”
