||| FROM AAIMEE JOHNSON |||


Join us to celebrate nearly 30 years of commitment to healthcare on Orcas Island as Dr. David C. Shinstrom, Dr. Dave to most, hangs up his stethoscope in retirement. Dr. Dave is hoping many of you can attend so he can express his appreciation for the honor it has been to serve some of the medical needs of Orcas. It has been quite a ride, lots of stories.

On July 17, from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m., at the Red Rabbit Farm 216 Peyton Lane, in West Sound. The gettogether will be catered with food and beverages.

If you would like to help, please contact Aaimee Johnson at Aaimee.johnson@gmail.com, or Anne Presson at annep@orcashealth.org.
