This year’s Spring Tea and Auction will be held on Sunday, March 18th, 2:00-4:30.  A rare event this year, the Spring Tea will also feature the official coronation of the West Seattle Hi-Yu Senior Queen, Kayli Schulz accompanied by her junior court Queen Thea Pulido, Princess Amanda Elder, and Princess Elena Kline.  We are planning a great event at the Hall at Fauntleroy catered by Tuxedos and Tennis Shoes.  Many wonderful auction items have already been procured that are sure to spark your interest.   It will be the perfect opportunity for you and your friends and daughters to enjoy the spectacle of a royal event.

 Tickets are now available for purchase.  You can buy tickets individually or become a Table Captain and buy a table for 10 to share with your closest friends.   For those who have filled tables in the past, thanks so much.  Hopefully, you and your friends would love to come again.  For those who are new to Hi-Yu, seriously consider becoming a Table Captain and purchasing a table to enjoy as a group.  This is an event your friends/daughters will remember for years.

All purchases will be helping support the West Seattle community with family events to include Seattle’s last remaining community float and our scholarship program for women.  This year’s theme is “Secret Garden.” You can read more about coming events at www.westseattlehiyu.com or view us on our Facebook page at www.facebook.com/WSHiYu.  You will also find a link to buy tickets for the Spring Tea which you can share with your friends.

Coming Soon! An archive of Hi-Yu History! - 6/7/2011
By: Peter Richards

I have come across a huge treasure trove of photos and other memorabilia from the archives of an annonymous donor's garage. I am working as fast as I can to scan all of the images.  Photos from huge community picnics at Lincoln Park to some of the great gatherings at the Legion hall.  Most of the items from the late 40s and 50's as well as newspaper clippings.
 
Look for the items to be online soon!

Thank you to West Seattle Businesses! - 7/27/2010
By: Deena Mahn

On Saturday before the American Legion Grand Parade, West Seattle Hi-Yu hosted a breakfast reception for royalty visiting our community and participating in the parade. We were visited by the 2009- 2010 Miss Seafair and the 2010-2011 Miss Seafair Candidates representing many communities from throughout the Pacific Northwest.  We were also joined by the Puyallup Daffodil Festival, Marysville Strawberry Festival and the Port Orchard Fathoms of Fun Festival.  This annual tradition would not have been possible without the generosity of many local businesses.  Merrill Gardens Admiral Heights graciously opened their home to us again this year providing a lovely venue and assisting us with set-up and organization. Mark Brown from Seattle’s Best Coffee arranged and delivered coffee and condiments, Zatz Bagels provided us with an assortment of fresh bagels and Alki Bakery donated a variety of delectable pastries.  The Great Harvest Bread Company baked us their famous mini-cinnamon rolls and Jack Miller from Husky Deli arranged a colorful fresh fruit tray for us.  

West Seattle Hi-Yu would like to publicly acknowledge the generosity of these local businesses and thank them for supporting our organization.  Your community spirit is admirable and we appreciate you!
