Seattle Business Conference Center, Boutique Hotel or Simple Escape, There Are Reasons Cedarbrook Lodge is Ranked #1 in the World

Boutique Hotel and Business Conference Center is Hidden Gem,
Oh So Close to Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA)

By Joe Kennedy

I recently had the pleasure of enjoying an overnight stay at the multiple award-winning Cedarbrook Lodge.  This hotel and conference center is hidden away at the end of a non-descript residential street in the community of SeaTac, just barely separated from the very busy SeaTac Strip by 18 acres of very peaceful wetlands – but worlds away from the hustle and bustle of that major thorough fair that runs in front of the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport.

Who would have thought of escaping TO SeaTac to get away from it all?

International Ballet Theatre is the Eastside Non-Profit of the Day!

International Ballet Theatre is the Eastside Non-Profit of the Day!

IBT is currently rehearsing for the production of Chipollino.

From the IBT Website:

Through the joy of dance, Chipollino illustrates the struggle of the underclass against the powerful, good versus evil, and the importance of friendship in the face of difficulties.

 
In this visually engaging presentation, Chipollino is the young son of a family of onions. His story takes place in the little town of Limonia where flowers, vegetables and fruits happily live together. Unfortunately, they also share their lives under the rule of a tyrant known as Prince Lemon.
 
Through music and dance, Chipollino not only tells a classic tale, but shares a much more profound statement about community and compassion under difficult circumstances.
