SUMMARY:After 2-year pause\, Tree Lighting ceremony returns to Burien Thursday\, Dec. 8
DESCRIPTION:Santa emits a rousing “Ho Ho Ho!” while greeting children and families at Economy Wiring\, where he’ll be returning on Thursday\, Dec. 8\, 2022. \nSPONSORED: \nAfter a 2-year pause\, a Tree Lighting ceremony will return to Burien’s Economy Wiring on Thursday\, Dec. 8\, 2022. \nEvery year since 1982\, Burien’s Economy Wiring (an Advertiser) has hosted a good ol’ fashioned Christmas Tree Lighting event…that is\, until Covid-19 struck\, pausing the joyous activity for two years. \nNow\, owners Jay and Gail Smith are pleased to announce a return of this time-honored tradition. \nThe Tree Lighting Ceremony will be held on Thursday\, Dec. 8\, 2022\, starting at 6 p.m. at Economy Wiring Co\, Inc. (633 SW 148th Street; map below). \nIn a slice of small town America charm\, the St. Francis School Choir entertains the crowd in anticipation of Santa Claus himself\, clutching a bag full of candy canes to share\, hitching a ride with the Burien/Normandy Park Fire Department aboard their fire truck. \nAfter greeting the crowd and a few photo ops\, Santa typically leads the group in a countdown to the official lighting of the fir tree just a few feet east of the Economy Wiring building. Indoors\, Cookies and hot chocolate are served after the tree lighting in the store\, cozily warmed by the fire inserts on display. \nThe event includes an opportunity to share your abundance with those in need. Please bring an unwrapped toy or nonperishable food item for the Highline Area Food Bank. \nThis celebration has illuminated the Burien skyline for a long time now. Economy Wiring Company Founder Gwin Smith started the tradition in 1966. Over the years his small celebration has grown to include the St. Francis School Choir and the King County Station #2 Burien/Normandy Park Fire Department. \nIn the first eight years of the tree lighting\, Gwin climbed the huge fir tree himself to install the lights and then climbed back up in January to take them down. This changed some years ago\, when the fire department took responsibility for installing and removing the lights. \nCome join your neighbors in celebrating this festive start to the holidays. \n \nEDITOR’S NOTE: Sponsored Posts like this are paid\, “Native Advertisements” that help businesses and organizations improve their internet presence and all-important SEO. South King Media also underwrites fundraisers from local nonprofits.

SUMMARY:'Bootlegger’s Ball' returns Dec. 8; will feature local Prohibition Stories
DESCRIPTION:The Repeal of Prohibition will once again be celebrated with a party on Thursday\, Dec. 8\, 2022\, at the Washington State Historical Museum in Tacoma. \nIn addition to imbibing at the Museum’s own version of a speakeasy (The Blind Marmot\, where you can drink from your own History After Hours glass)\, the evening features live music by The Happy Sinners and\, according to WSHM\,\, “more roaring 20s fun!” \nThe event also features Des Moines attorney\, filmmaker\, and public speaker Steve Edmiston\, sharing fascinating tales of the Northwest’s Rumrunning King\, Roy Olmstead\, that include little known stories of Olmstead’s secret “smuggler’s paradise” in Highline\, and his stunning Thanksgiving Day arrest at the Woodmont Dock in Des Moines. \nEdmiston has been sharing stories of “The Good Bootlegger” and Prohibition in the Northwest throughout Washington State for the past two years as a member of the Humanities Washington Speaker’s Bureau. \n“One of the reasons I love sharing the Olmstead story is the powerful connection to our South King County communities\,” he said. “It’s amazing to me how much of our hyperlocal prohibition history has been forgotten\, and how much our model of rumrunning and bootlegging in the 1920s differed from the Al Capone model of organized crime fueled by violence. What better way to experience this history than to live it\, speakeasy style\, at the Ball.” \nEvent details: \nWHAT: Washington State Historical Museum Bootleggers’ Ball! \nWHEN: Thursday\, Dec. 8\, 2022\, 7-10 p.m. \nWHERE: Washington State History Museum\, 1911 Pacific Avenue\, Tacoma\, WA (map below). \nTICKETS: \n\n\n\n$20 for members\n$25 pre-registration\, $30 at the door\nAdults 21+ only\, ID required\n\n\n\nMore info: https://www.washingtonhistory.org/event/bootleggers-ball/ \nTickets: https://49882.blackbaudhosting.com/49882/Bootleggers-Ball \n\nGet in the mood with this short film by Steve Edmiston for Seattle Southside Scenes: \n\n \nAbout Washington State Historical Society\nFounded in 1891 and now into its second century of service\, the Washington State Historical Society is dedicated to collecting\, preserving\, and vividly presenting Washington’s rich and storied history.
