Seattle Seafair, a festival of fun,
With hydroplane races and boats in the sun,

And Ballard Seafood Fest offers seafood galore.
For 70 years, Seafair has been a delight,
With parades, community events, and boats in sight,
Seattle’s summer festival, a tradition so dear,
Brings joy to all, year after year.
