— from Tony Suruda —

Orcas residents are currently facing uncertainty regarding a major disease outbreak.  I’d like to call attention to a minor but annoying issue at the Orcas Island Off Leash area:  The new poop bags from biodogradablebags.com are a pain in the butt to open, and not just for senior citizens like me. 

Whoever sourced these bags please revert to the previous version.
