Sunny morning at English Camp....it was great to get out there on a crisp cool spring morning!

Let’s see what’s up this weekend….including getting out in the sun!

• Last month the County Republicans held their caucuses, and this month the Democrats are in action – you can drop in & add your voice to the choice – here’s the scoop:

The County Democratic caucuses are this Sunday, April 15, from 1:00pm-3:00pm at the following location in Friday Harbor (the Orcas meeting is at Orcas High, and the Lopez one is at Lopez School):
San Juan Island, San Juan Island Grange, 152 1st St N, Friday Harbor

Come and be an active participant in your representative democracy.  The process for selecting delegates to the state and national conventions starts here.  Bring your voter registration, if you have it, to simplify identification of your specific precinct (but it’s not mandatory).

• You remember that awesome movie called Saving Luna, that Ryan Reynolds & friends made into The Whale for American distribution? It opens in China in the next couple of weeks. Yep, our killer whales are stars in China….

Come on by Lavendera!

• Lavendera has a celebration this Sunday – drop by! Here’s the deal, from Ceily:

Celebration Date: Sunday, April 15, 2012, 3pm-6pm
Lavendera is having their Re-Location Celebration!

“We are so inspired by our new location we want everyone to see it, feeeel it and experience the calm we have brought with us!. Please help us celebrate our new, expanded, very convenient location and throw off the stress of your taxes!”

Relax....

Lavendera will have delicious treats from Friday Harbor House and Cynthia Burke who they collaborate with. They will have people who can share about the various services supporting Body, Mind, Heart and Spirit from the community.

Lavendera is now called Lavendera Massage…Center for Evolving Well Being. The education program is called “Lavendera Thursdays” which include Free Community Services, Open Forums and education to give people information and access to new possibilities in their lives.

Lavendera is continuing to do their traditional massage and spa treatments. They intend to address individual needs, engaging a variety of therapeutic approaches. Their treatments can take a person through the healing of an injury or provide the blissful experience of a one time relaxation massage or spa treatment.

Lavendera prices remain the same. The price for Swedish and Deep Tissue massage has been combined, lowering prices overall.

Your experience walking in the door will be their signature calm, the Lavendera aroma and the breadth of our larger space. The retail products will expand with the summer season. After you check in, your curiosity will lead you to retreat to the back for water or tea.

Lavendera invites you to come in for the experience anytime!

With a warm welcome,
Ciely Ti Gray and the Lavendera Team

• At the Rumor Mill this weekend: The Betchawanna Boogle Band plays tonight, and tomorrow it’s Oliver – here’s more from his mom, Debbie Strasser:

Hi Ian, Oliver and a new friend, Matt Bachman, will be a jazz duo this Saturday Night at the Rumor Mill. Matt is from Chicago and is a temporary teacher at Spring Street School. I think it will be mostly jazz standard instrumentals. So… wanted to get the word out to all the musicians around! And that of course includes you 🙂

Then, on Sunday:

OPA! will be performing for your dining and drinking pleasure Sunday April 15th 6:30- 8:30(ish). If you have yet to experience this Musical Treat, come on in and hear the unusual sounds of this dynamic Gypsy/Roma Band. You’ll be shouting OPA! It feels so good!!!!!!
