Host a rain garden
The Snohomish Conservation District is looking for partner organizations with a public site (schools, parks, public buildings, etc.) to install a demonstration rain garden.
If you know of a good location that is visible, accessible and would benefit from stormwater management, call Stacy Smith at 425-335-5634, ext.102 or e-mail stacy@snohomishcd.org.
Senior center to offer health fair: Stillaguamish Senior Center’s Senior Health and Social Services Resource Fair is set for Wednesday at the center, 18308 Smokey Point Blvd., in Arlington.
The focus is preventive medicine, healthy lifestyle choices and Medicare options offered through various social service agencies and local resources. Presentation topics include the new health care law, sleep disorders, consumer safety for seniors, estate planning and hospice care. Flu shots will be available.
Domestic violence event will feature UW coach: Domestic Violence Services of Snohomish County will have its fifth annual Hope Within Luncheon on Oct. 8 at the Comcast Arena in Everett. University of Washington head basketball coach Lorenzo Romar will be keynote speaker.
Romar has coached the Husky basketball team for eight years. That gives him the distinction as the Pac-10 Conference’s longest tenured coach. He signed a 10-year contract extension in April.
Cost of the luncheon is $10 per seat or $100 for a table of 10.
The nonprofit group operates a 24-hour hotline and other programs to assist victims of domestic violence.
