FAVORITES
Meet for coffee I love to meet friends and colleagues in and around the various coffee shops in Renton; Liberty Café, Café Felice, Vince's, Common Ground, yes, even Starbucks. A perfect day would be a long walk at Gene Coulon Park and a leisurely lunch at Peyrassol; everything on the menu is fabulous! Pam Teal Renton School Board
Walk the trails Trying to select just one item as my favorite thing to do in Renton is a difficult task. As an employee, I love to walk the Cedar River Trail before work during the spring and summer months. With some of my co-workers, we start at 6 a.m. and do a brisk three-mile walk. The Cedar River Trail provides such great scenery and it is not unusual to see a heron sitting along the water's edge or a bald eagle perched high
in a tree. When my grandkids visit, we love to go to Coulon where the playground is always a hit and I can't go wrong with buying lunch at Ivars or Kidd Valley. I always earn extra Grandma points. Terry Higashiyama Renton Community Services administrator
Restaurant for breakfast, come open up the store (King and Bunnys), serve the best customers anywhere and then take my wife out to one of Renton fine restaurants. It’s a great life. King Parker, owner, King and Bunnys
Participate!
Downtown library
Participating in community! This would include areas such as Renton Little League, schools, community meals, civic events, service club events and gathering for Renton celebrations (Renton River Days, Christmas tree lightings) Capt. Chris Aird The Salvation Army
I love Renton’s many parks, but my single favorite thing in Renton is the downtown Library. I’ve been going to the library since I was a baby, and still go often. There’s always things to do and books to read! And it’s always fun to pause and enjoy the river. Thanks again! I love reading the Reporter every week.

Meet for breakfast My most favorite thing is to go to meet with my friends at the Plum Delicious
