Everyone is welcome to the Olga Community Club potluck this month, taking place Saturday night March 14 at the Olga Energetic Club. Featured speakers will include Brendan Cowen and Dave Halloran from the San Juan County Department of Emergency Management.  The discussion will highlight how the east end of Orcas (all residents east of Moran State Park) can become more prepared for all kinds of emergencies, including wildfire, tsunami and 911 outages, as well as breaks in the local community water systems. Social hour begins at 5:30 p.m. and dinner is at 6 to 6:30 p.m.  Bring your own place settings and a dish to share, if you’re able. Call 376-2872 if you have questions.
