Best parking is on Tyee Rd.
Bus Routes
To get within 2 blocks of Tyee Rd you can take these bus routes; 10, 14, 15, 24, 25
Carpooling
We are trying a forum to assist members with sharing rides to events or meetings, registration is required and we'll be seeing how popular it is before deciding whether to continue moderating.
Please help us continue to be able to provide financial resources when required so we are not putting the burden on individual members by paying your dues for the year. Common costs include renting spaces, printing resources and provide some travel expenses for out of town speakers among other incidentals. All of our spending is tightly monitored and scrutinized by the members and our diligent Treasurer so rest assured your funds are well spent.
If you would like to join the Social Environmental Alliance please visit our membership page to get all the details and print your own form to fill out and bring to a members meeting. Our elections last month were another great success. We still have one vacant role so if you are interested in a 6 month term please attend.
