There’s weddings and garage sales from one corner of the island to the other

There’s the Historical Society Auction on the Village Green

There’s the Jazz Festival at Orcas Center

There’s the Senior Center’s Living Room sale at Larson Storage on North Beach Road

There’s politicking at the Farmers Market

There’s a new cultural exchange program for bringing together Lummi and Orcas children for paddling and reef netting, with a canoe on display by the Historical Museum

There’s ferry comings and goings, with the Sunday schedule on Labor Day Monday

There’s the Wooden Boat Festival at Deer Harbor

There’s gardening and moving and getting ready for school

And there’s celebrating all those who work to make our island soulful, fun, responsive and thoughtful!
