Sunday, July 16, 4:30 – 9 p.m., Friday Harbor Brickworks

— from Sarah Crosby for San Juan Community Home Trust —

FIESTA! The San Juan Community Home Trust invites you to join us at the Brickworks for our 5th annual Fiesta San Juan, Sunday, Jul. 16 from 4:30 to 9 p.m.

We are serving up margaritas, food, and music for your enjoyment, dancing for some fun and exercise, and live and “chance” auction items to satisfy your wish for adventure, whether athletic, gastronomic, artistic, or utilitarian.

Back by popular demand are “Los Bambinos” all the way from Puerto Vallarta, thanks to the generosity of one of our donors. Their music is known to generate smiles, gentle sways, and magical footwork as they play both Latin favorites and great dance music.

Special this year is a raffle for a one week stay in a condominium in Puerto Vallarta which can accommodate four people. There will only be 200 raffle tickets sold at $25 per ticket. Your chances of winning this fabulous vacation destination are good and the good that you do by supporting the Home Trust benefits the entire community.

The Fiesta is the Home Trust’s yearly fundraiser and our party to celebrate the year, and to thank the community for its ongoing support. We are 2/3 of the way towards completion of Sun Rise II, our newest development of permanently affordable homes. This neighborhood, composed of houses barged over from Victoria, B.C. and refurbished by our local contractor, will add 12 residences to San Juan Island for working people and families who call the island “home.”

Ticket prices are $35.00 for adults, $15.00 for children under 18. Tickets will be available soon at the Saturday Farmers Market, from Home Trust Board Members, and at the Home Trust Office at 435-C Argyle Ave, or by phone to the Home Trust at 378-5541.
