On behalf of the Orcas Off-leash Area board of directors, I’d like to give a big shout out and thanks to all involved.

Thanks to the many people who volunteered precious time and resources to help make this event successful. We are very grateful for the space we were able to use, and for the publicity that helped get the word out.

We also are overwhelmingly grateful for the generous donations that we received.

We consider the Orcas Off-leash Area to be a vital part of the community. I am awestruck at the volume of people who showed up to the photo shoot this year. It would not be possible to have our wonderful “dog park” without each and every one of you. Cheers, Ruff, and Jingle bells.
