An island thank you | Letter


January 15, 2013 · 10:54 AM

The 4-H Orcas Island Trailblazers and Girl Scout Troop #172 would like to thank the community members that helped support their service project this year of providing 87 Christmas stockings for island families that receive food bank donations. This was our 10th year organizing and giving stockings for this cause. We would especially like to thank: Mary Minnis, Girl Scouts of Western Washington, Orcas Lions Club, Orcas Island Kiwanis, Dr. Brenda Ivans, Dr. Steven Bailey and Camp Orkila.

Once again our island pulled together to provide something special for our island families.
