Jim & Kate are the new owners of IPS
Kate just dropped me a note to let you know:
New Owners for Island Petroleum Services (IPS)
On April 1st Jim and Kate Schuman purchased Island Petroleum Services, more commonly known as IPS, from Charlie and Lynn Meyer. IPS operates the gas station located at 315 Carter Avenue as well as the fuel dock at the Port of Friday Harbor. They also offer home delivery of heating oil and kerosene.
IPS is known for its courteous and knowledgeable staff, including Meghan Hoyt and Michelle Coleman in the office, truck drivers Graham Wallis, Ken Claborn, and Craig Starr, fuel dock manager Laurie Mason, and her crew Dani Rand, Pearl Schuman, Abby Kitchen, and Hank Schuman.
Jim and Kate invite you to come by the gas station for a celebration this Monday, June 22nd, between 11am and 2pm to meet some of the crew. Enjoy a free hamburger or hot dog fresh off the barbecue grill, operated by San Juan Propane. Sign up for your very own IPS gas card for a personal or commercial account and you will qualify to win a $50 Shell gift card.
Drawings will be at 2pm but you need not be present to win. Two $50 gift cards will be awarded to new applicants, and two more $50 gift cards will be awarded to current cardholders who fill out an entry ticket during the event.
The celebration will be held rain or shine, thanks to the generous donation of a large tent from Al Jones, owner of the Henry Island barge. Hope to see y’all there!
