June 14th: Flag Day -- Exchange Your Old Flag Free

Last year we had an extremely successful flag drive sponsored by PEMCO. Anyone was invited to bring in their old flag to have it exchanged for a new flag at no cost. The worn flags would be properly disposed of by the American Legion.

Flag day is here again on June 14th and Claudia McClain will be running the drive. The drive is being promoted by Stubbs on KMPS and PEMCO will again be sponsoring the drive.

To exchange your tattered flag free of cost-- stop by Friday, June 12th at McClain Insurance Services:

Free WIFI Locations - Seattle

Back in 2005, Seattle Mayor Greg Nickels launched a free WIFI program in some areas of Seattle. Look for the sign in the photo picture above. You'll be able to connect by using seattlewifi for the ssid.

There's no commitment from the city on expanding this citywide but even with the limited locations it's still made a difference. Graduate Student KD, resident of Columbia City and mother to a small child loves the free WIFI adding "it allows me to work in cafes without having to worry about whether they provide Internet access, and I hope to work in the park when the weather is nice this summer."

The locations are:
Many of the Seattle Public Library branches, the Seattle Center "Center House", the City Hall lobby area.

The 4 Seattle parks are Occidental, Westlake, Victor Steinbrueck, and the north end of Freeway Park.

In the University District, coverage currently runs along University Way (The Ave) from 40th Street NE to approximately midway between 47th and 50th Streets NE. See the map.

In Columbia City coverage runs along Rainier Avenue South from Dawson Street northwards to South Alaska Street. See the map.
