They’re finally here! Photos from the off-the-hook-est Independence Day party in the greater Seattle area! These puppies were taken by local photographer and Adventure School wedding alum Eliza Truitt . As you can see, the party was mega kiddie-friendly and family (of all kinds)-oriented. And that’s how it should be on the 4th of July. Because what are we in the US of A if not one large, diverse, rockin’ family? What an awesome belated gift from the month of July!

7th Annual Capitol Hill Independence Day Community Picnic from Patrick Wright on Vimeo. We threw a patriotic bash for more than 1000 community members. The Cal Anderson Park Alliance hired us to produce their signature event to celebrate our nation’s favorite holiday, Independence Day! The event was free to all and featured free cotton candy, free root beer floats, free tie-dye, free spin art, free family portraits and a free root beer tasting garden. Bands played all day on the main stage including kids jammers Recess Monkey, urban Latin beat makers Picoso, Lo-fi pop from Katherine Hepburn’s Voice, and the funky soul sounds of Lady A and the Baby Blues Funk Band. Guests enjoyed pizza from Via Tribunali and dogs from Wandering Wieners. Caffe Vita served coffee and guests were free to participate in a hotly contested pie-eating contest and Pet/human look-alike contest.

Good God y’all, 4th of July at Cal Anderson Park was SO MUCH FUN! There were hula hoops and face painting and awesome bands and root beer floats and tie-dyed underwear and spin art pieces and pizzas from a wood-fired oven and hoards of small children. We have some fantastic pictures coming soon to an Adventure School blog near you. In the meantime, here’s a teaser to show you exactly how great the day was: ![]() aftermath of the pie eating contest ![]() FREE COTTON CANDY! ![]() team teamwork

…days until The Cal Anderson Park Alliance 4th of July Party! *image courtesy of inmagine If you haven’t already noticed, we’ve been spending a lot of time pumping up for the Cal Anderson 4th of July picnic by featuring the various bands and vendors you’ll see there on our blog. We also want to give a shout out to some of the event’s co-sponsors. What up, Sustainable Capitol Hill! These guys can hook you in to a network of resources to help you live more sustainably, whether that means starting a compost pile at home or learning exactly which items can and cannot be recycled. The site also has a some mega helpful lists that give advice on how to live and work more sustainably. It goes without saying that Sustainable Capitol Hill is an extremely community-oriented organization committed to perpetuating the things about Capitol Hill that we all know and love (creative small businesses, artsy people, fresh eats, and locally-centered cultural events). They’ll at the park on the 4th educating people on how to recycle properly. Make sure you stop by and say hello!
