Wednesday, February 24, 5 p.m., OHS Cafeteria

— from Kim Ihlenfeldt, Program Coordinator, OPR — 

Many Islanders with youth in our Park and Rec and School programs have recently received a survey to complete regarding your thoughts on football on Orcas Island. We have received an overwhelming number of responses to this survey and believe it is time to address the future of football on Orcas.

Many of you may know that there is a real possibility that there could be no high school program in the upcoming years due to safety and numbers of athletes.

If you are interested in learning more about this and providing input, there will be a community/parent/youth football meeting on February 24 at 5:00 p.m. in the high school cafeteria to discuss our options and our vision going forward. Please contact Kim Ihlenfeldt at (kimi@oiprd.org) or Vicki Vandermay (vvandermay@orcas.k12.wa.us) for additional information.
