It takes less than ten minutes and could make you $3,900!

That sounds like a good return for your time!  We are a family of 6 as of April 1 so my 10 minutes could bring $23,400 into our community from federal dollars!  WOW!  Who wouldn’t want that?

Another way to think of it is if I were to toss my census form, I could cost my community the same-ouch!   Our community needs all the financial support we can get from our government, in order to lean less on the citizens for donations.  The only way to ensure Orcas receives what it is entitled to, is to make sure each and every one of us is accounted for.  STAND UP AND BE COUNTED! Fill out your census form now!  I encourage EVERYONE to take a few minutes to ensure you, and everyone in your household, are counted.
