UPDATE:

ALERT: WE’VE CHANGED THE MEETUP PLACE FOR THE NORTH SEATAC PARK WALK-N-TALK! We will meet on the grassy slope near the restrooms above the large parking lot at the north end of the park. See the revised map.

DIRECTIONS: Approach the park entrance by driving north on Des Moines Memorial Drive S., (either from downtown Burien or from the Hwy. 518 off-ramp.) Take a right and go east on S. 128th St. Drive one block and take a right on 20th Ave. S. into the park. There are spaces for a couple hundred cars here, compared to the 15 parking spaces in the small lot off of Des Moines Memorial Drive S.

Press release from WaBi Burien:

For our October 7 Walk-n-Talk, let’s go explore our “neighbor’s” trails. Adjacent to Burien’s eastern city limits is the city of SeaTac, home of North SeaTac Park.

North SeaTac Park amenities include: baseball/soccer/softball fields, open area, restrooms, playground equipment, picnic area, outdoor basketball, paved walking trails, community center, BMX track, disk golf, parking.

On past Walk-n-Talks, we’ve walked within the city of Burien, and have generally started at Town Square. But there are interesting places to check out in the neighboring communities as well, so we’ll consider them for our walking opportunities.

Date: Sunday October 7, 2012

Time: Meet at 2:00 p.m. Start walking at 2:15 p.m.

Location: We will meet on the grassy slope near the restrooms above the large parking lot at the north end of the park. See the revised map.

Who: Walkers of every level and ability

Route: We will walk on the paved trails that meander through the park. Total distance of 2-2.5 miles, depending on wishes of the walkers.
