Music on the Lawn: Pig Kiss’n this week, cake next week

Come early so you can get a place to put your chair or your blanket...

Every Wednesday night at 6:30pm…the music is good.

Island Rec’s Sally Thomsen tells me the band this week at Music on the Lawn is pretty awesome, so already I was gonna go, but there’s another good reason: The Soroptimist Club’s Kiss for the Cure Contest, as people vote by donating a dollar a vote towards the Relay for Life, and towards picking who’s gonna end up kissing the pig (here’s the rest of THAT story). Sheriff Bill Cumming, Under Sheriff Jon Zerby, Elementary Principal Gary Pflueger, Post Master Dan Fleming and Fire Chief Vern Long have all volunteered to compete for votes in the Kiss for the Cure fundraiser.

Then, next week…it’s Island Rec’s 25th Birthday! And…you can make a cake & bring it! Here’s the rest of the story from Sally:

Join us as we celebrate Island Rec’s 25th Anniversary at Island Rec’s Music on the Lawn Concert on July 29.  The San Juan Jazz Quintet accompanied by inimitable vocalist Jill Urbach performs for this special occasion.  At intermission concert goers will enjoy the cakes entered in Island Rec’s Cake Baking and Cake Decorating contests.  Information on entering this contest can be found on www.islandrec.org or by calling Island Rec at 378-4953.

In 1984 voters of San Juan Island approved the formation of San Juan Island Park and Recreation for the purpose of providing leisure time activities and recreational facilities as a public service to the residents of San Juan Island.  Thanks to the foresight of community leaders of that time, residents today are enjoying the benefits of living in a community with a comprehensive park and recreation district.
