What we’re about
Welcome to Adventures and Events! The purpose of this group to create an all activities group that helps connect one another to fun and memorable experiences. It is not based on any one type of activity but rather an assortment of things. Everyone that wants to go make new friends, dine, go rafting, explore, hike, sky dive, go kayaking, do urban walks, do bon fires, travel and experience all of life's great joys are welcome to join.
Claudette of Claudette Travels is our head resident travel agent and co-Organizer - you're welcome to contact her to arrange trips for you and the group!
We're also looking for volunteers to host events. Choose an activity that you would like to do and pick a day and time to do it, choose a place to meet and how people can find you when they get to the location.
Benefits to volunteers: You get to do the activities you want, when you want to do them with people that enjoy the same activities you do, who live/work near you and have the same work/play schedule that you have. You will meet and mingle with lots of people as everyone looks to the host to lead the group.

🌿 Seaweed Harvest Adventure at Lisabeula: A Bounty of Oceanic Delights! 🌊
Permission to harvest seaweed:
I have successfully petitioned Vashon Island Board Council to vote in a change in Vashon laws to allow seaweed harvesting.Agreement to appear in Public Media:
Since it's relatively unknown that harvesting seaweed on vashon is allowed, I am looking to reach out to media to publicize more information for the public. This is likely to involve agreeing to release some of our photos of our trip so everyone will need to agree to this before being allowed to join the trip.Season:
We should be in peak season right before seaweed starts to spawn in the summer. This is where we expect it to taste best. As a bonus we are going before any red tide can appear.Seaweed species:
I have confirmed sightings of the following species.- Bull kelp
- Brown algae
- Rockweed
- Gutweed/Ulva
Regulations:
Read here for regulations. Please buy a shellfish/seaweed license.Equipment:
- Shellfish license
- Wader(seaweed is better harvested from sea than on sand)
- Scissors or knife
- Foraging bag
- Gloves
- Waterproof shoes. Prefer waders or rain boots
- Food to share and Cooking equipment for lighthouse quarters
- Clam knife if you plan to eat cockles and butter clams and remove sand before cooking.
- Your host will bring a scale
- Things you plan to bring to airbnb
Accommodations
We are staying at 2 historic light house quarters at point robinson from 5/9-5/11 so 2 nights and can take up to 14 people. I cannot guarantee you will get a comfortable sleeping arrangement or that you won't need to share a large bed. The only way to guarantee you can sleep on your own is to bring a sleeping bag.Quarter A
- 2 Queen beds to be shared by 2 people
- 2 single beds
- 2 roll-a-ways
Quarter B
- 1 Queen beds to be shared by 2 people
- 2 single beds
- 2 roll-a-ways
I am capping this trip to 14 people max who are staying at the lighthouse quarters. I'm not able to accommodate additional people past 14 since the quality of the event will go down. If you want to make your separate trip that is fine but I wouldn't be able to coordinate with you.
Payment
Cost is $150
Make sure payment is for friends/familyRefund
The only way to get a refund is to get a replacement to take your spot.Cooking afterwards:
For those staying at Airbnb, we can cook at airbnb after harvest. If I end up allowing people coming for day trip to join us, you guys should bring your own portable grill and we can use the picnic tables at the park.Communication for carpools and other info:
