Changing the game with Social Location Marketing

Salmon-Chanted Evening is a hearty salmon dinner served among the splendor of Seattle's Pike Place Market in Victor Steinbrueck Park from 5-7pm.   Our goal of this event is to celebrate this historic area of our city and inspire a commitment to increased park security and generate consistent, positive community presence in the park. Guests pick up their food buffet style and then spread out on the grass in the park to enjoy dinner and the view. The dinner costs $15.00 per person and all proceeds will benefit the Seattle Parks Department. [Sponsor 2] online:
