What everyone needs to know about Renton | The Residents’ Guide

The Renton Reporter is doing its annual Residents' Guide to help new and current residents better understand their city. So, we thought we'd ask our online friends for some help in telling the behind-the-scenes story of Renton that everyone needs to know.

Hi

The Renton Reporter is doing its annual Residents’ Guide to help new and current residents better understand their city. So, we thought we’d ask our online friends for some help in telling the behind-the-scenes story of Renton that everyone needs to know.

Here are some questions. Answer any or all in the comment section below and we’ll publish your responses in the print guide. And we’ll use your name with the response, so please include it.

And, while you’re at it, be thinking about entering our Best of Renton contest this month. It’s a great way to give a shout out to people, organizations and businesses that make a difference in our lives.

Thanks

Dean
