King’s Events – February 13th and 18th

Grandparents Day

This coming Friday, February 13th, King’s Elementary will be hosting their annual Grand Parents Day, starting at 8 a.m. till noon.

This is a popular event and typically brings with it heavier parking and traffic demand on N 195th and Dayton Ave. N.  Please make a note of it.

 

Blood Drive

This coming Wednesday, February 18th from 8 a.m. -1:45 p.m., the King’s High School National Honor Society will be sponsoring an annual blood drive.  The bloodmobile will be located on King’s Garden Drive and is available for neighbors use, as well.

Every week several hundred units of blood are needed in the Puget Sound area.  Each unit of blood collected makes a difference in the lives of two people in need.  The donation procedure requires about 45 minutes and includes a health check, giving blood, and refreshments after donating.

To make an appointment please email nwhite@kingsschools.org or call the high school office at 206-546-7241.

Be a hero and save a life!

 

Thank you.

Firland Sanatorium Recognized on the Washington Heritage Register of Historic Places

We’ve always known we work at a place with a deep and strongly rooted history, and now our workspace is being recognized for it.

The Governor’s Advisor Council on Historic Preservation and the Washington State Department of Archeology & Historic Preservation have listed Firland Sanatorium, currently the Martin Center and King’s Schools on the CRISTA Ministries campus, on the Washington Heritage Register of Historic Places. This honor recognizes building in the state of Washington that represent historical significance and maintain architectural integrity.

Kyle Roquet, Vice President of Facilities, was instrumental in helping Firland Sanatorium make it on the Register. “We are proud of the buildings and grateful to be stewards of their history, not only as Firland Sanatorium, but as King’s Garden and CRISTA Ministries as well!” said Roquet.

The Martin Center serves as headquarters for CRISTA Ministries, Christian Veterinary Mission, World Concern and King’s Schools Administration while King’s Schools buildings house students and teachers who educate students each day to serve God for his glory; to this end, we are grateful to have our Holy Ground recognized in such a significant way by the State of Washington.
