EarthCorps and the city are hosting a day of urban forest restoration at Wildwood Park this Saturday, January 28th.

Volunteers will spend the day learning the history of the park, forest structure, native vs. non-native plant species, safety and environmental restoration.

There will also be some hands on work to remove invasive plant species, spread wood chips, mulch and weed.

The goal is to help make the park healthy again. 

The event runs from 10:00-2:00p.m.

Below are driving directions from organizers:

7400 86th Ave SE

Driving from I90:

Take the Island Crest Way exit. Drive south on Island Crest Way till SE 71st Street. Turn right onto SE 71st Street. Turn left onto 86th Ave SE and you will see the grassy front lawn of the park on your left after about 2 blocks. Park in front of the grassy lawn and we will meet there.

If you were one of the thousands without power for nearly a week, you could get a break on next month's bill.

Puget Sound Energy says it plans to give a $50 credit to customers who lost power for five or more days during last week's winter storm.

"The prolonged power outages from the storms created a real hardship for many of our customers," said Sue McLain, PSE senior vice president of Delivery Operations. "The bill credit won't take back the dark evenings and chill in the bones that many families experienced. Rather, it is a gesture of our appreciation for their understanding and patience."

According to PSE, this is the first time, since passing the 120-consecutive-hour power outage credit in 2008, the utility has had to activate it.

PSE says the credit will automatically be provided to all customers without power for five days or longer.

The credit should show up on your Feb. 15th bill.

If it doesn't - you should notify PSE at: 888-225-5773.

The winter storm is over, it's time to assess the damage and King County wants to help.

If you are a resident or business owner who suffered property damage you may be eligible to get it fixed courtesy the county.

Below is how the program works, who is eligible, and how to make a claim from emergency managers:

In order to compute the losses, individuals and businesses are encouraged to submit reports to the King County Office of Emergency Management (OEM).
