Any fan of first responders and big red trucks might want to find time to stop by Capitol Hill’s Fire Station 25 on Saturday to visit with the crew and check out the firehouse on Seattle’s Neighborhood Appreciation Day. Tours run 11 AM to 2 PM. If you go early, you might find the crew, like any good host, a little unprepared for the visit but invite yourself in and help them tidy up for the show. Fire Station 25 is located at 1300 E Pine Street.

Looking for more fun on the Hill and beyond? Here’s the latest On the List with dozens of ideas for the weekend.
