The Gathering of the Eagles, the Native American Canoe Journey you read about here a few weeks ago, is less than a week away. The landing will take place about 3:00 at the dock in Olga on Wednesday, May 24. After a welcoming ceremony, there will be a community potluck dinner at about 5:00 at the Community Club in Olga.
If you want to attend the dinner, please plan on bringing a dish to share, and we advise bringing your own chairs or blanket and, if you can, your own utensils. At about 6:00, the evening program will begin.
Later that evening the group will head over to the Taylor property to continue the evening around a big fire. Extra chairs or blankets will be needed here as well. If you think you will stay past 9:00, you will definitely want to bring a flashlight.
We are still in need of donations to support the visit of the canoe families. If you can help, please go to the following link at the Friends of the San Juans website:
