— from Didier Gincig for Odd Fellows Lodge —
Thank you to everyone who bought a wood raffle (or solar) ticket in October to raise funds for Odd Fellows scholarship awards to graduating high school students. You’re all winners!
The Halloween Dance at the Odd Fellows Hall, also a fundraiser for scholarships as well as occasional special projects in the community, was great fun! Much gratitude to the band–The Elements–who entertained the crowd and set into dancing motion the many costumed people.
Thank you to all the folks who contributed towards the costume prizes: Morningstar Farm, Shearwater Kayaks, Doe Bay Wine Company, Clever Cow Creamery, Orcas Athletics, Barnacle, Roses, Keely Scott, Girl Meets Dirt, and Kat Taylor Chocolates.

And Thank You, Didier, for your, and the Oddfellows many contributions to our Orcas Community. So many needs met, much fun had.
