The Aug. 26 “Down Under in Deer Harbor” wine-tasting fundraiser was truly a fun and successful event!

A huge thank you and cheers to all who generously donated: the fine folks who donated the wonderful items for the auction, the community who attended, supported the auction, and pledged their generous donations, the indefatigable wine tasting committee, and ALL the amazing volunteers who made this successful event possible! Thank you to each and every one of you.

Funds raised go directly to paying down the mortgage on our Deer Harbor Post Office building. We’re still getting contributions coming in, however, our most current estimates are over $15,000 raised! Thank you Deer Harbor and Orcas Island. It’s events such as this that typify the generous giving spirit of this magical place we call home.
