||| FROM DAVID TURNOY for CANOE JOURNEY |||
This May we will see the annual Gathering of the Eagles Canoe Journey come to Orcas (May 21-23). We look forward to the canoes arriving at the Olga Landing around 2:00 PM on Wednesday, May 21, followed by the community potluck around 5:00 PM at the Olga Community Club, in which we hope you will participate.
After the canoe pullers leave Orcas, they will paddle to the mainland and on to Bellingham. In order to raise funds for the mainland part of the journey, the Gathering of the Eagles organizer is holding an art auction benefit on each of the three major San Juan Islands. The Orcas event will be on Friday, April 4, from 5:00-7:00 PM at the Odd Fellows Hall, and it will include art from Native American artists as well as local artists. See the flyer for more details.
We hope to see you at the auction event!

Is there any way to get a bigger image of the flyer or a link directly to it so that people can read it? Is there a theme for the local artwork they want submitted, or is it anything goes? Thanks, David.
