Sunday, April 14, 4–6 p.m., Eastsound Fire Station

from Gretchen Krampf

Join us for a monthly discussion about issues that impact those of us living on a rural island in the Salish Sea. The Orcas Community Council is a place for community members to share what is on their hearts and minds, their programs and projects, and explore opportunities for creating positive outcomes to improve our island lives.

The April O.C.C. meeting will explore how we can better support islanders with special medical needs. Transportation is often challenging and expensive. A new initiative to generate funds to provide ferry tickets to those needing to frequently travel off- island is underway. Be part of the conversation as we explore ways we can make challenging times easier for Orcas Islanders, young and old.

The O.C.C. is a project of Thrive Orcas Island, co-led by islanders, using the Peer Spirit process. Everyone is welcome.
