We'll be closed on July 3rd and 4th for the Fourth of July holiday. If you need us before Monday the 7th of July, you'll find us serving up hot dogs at the annual Independence Day Picnic at Cal Anderson Park. See below for all the fun details and have a happy 4th!

Seattle Mural Project is developing and promoting a great selection of contemporary murals this summer featuring some great acclaimed local and guest mural artists. Many of those murals will be in Capitol Hill and this is a great time for Capitol Hill businesses to get involved.

Seattle Mural Project wants to offer a logo sponsorship to any CHCC member business or group who donates $300 or more to their campaign. This would mean a logo on their website and other associated communications including social media and email. Businesses can also donate products or gift certificates which will be used as donation incentives. This is going to be a really unique opportunity for brand exposure with the city and the mayor behind this great project. Inquire at: info@seattlemuralproject.org. Donations are fully tax deductible! You can also donate wall space if you want a mural of your own.

Donations will go a long way because the mural project's funding is a reimbursement grant and they will only get those funds after they've purchased the necessary supplies - such as paint, scaffolding and safety equipment - themselves. The campaign page is here.

We've got 30 new members in 2014 so far. Be sure to thank them for supporting the organization that supports the Hill.

Member-owned Funeral Home Updating Name

Since its creation in 2007, the People's Memorial Funeral Cooperative has been a full service, not-for-profit funeral home that serves the members of the People's Memorial Association (est. 1939) and the general public. The Cooperative provides simple, dignified, affordable funeral and cremation arrangements to residents of the Seattle and the King County area. Unfortunately, our name has always been a source of confusion. MORE
