Hi-Yu is a non-profit organization, established in 1934 by West Seattle's service clubs to produce a summer festival to promote the West Seattle Community.

The annual Hi-Yu Summer Festival is held the third week of July. Dozens of events occur throughout the neighborhood during this week. The kick-off event is the Seattle Seafair Pirates Landing at Alki Beach, and it finishes over a week later with the Miss West Seattle Hi-Yu Scholarship Program. Named in 1934, in a community contest, Hi-Yu means "Big Time" in Chinook jargon.
