A smattering of what’s happening around the island…

Let’s take a quick look at what’s going on:

• Fourth of July Parade – reserved seating for those with special needs is available! Here’s more from Torrey:

Ian and I were walking around Roche Harbor and heard some beautiful music from inside a docked Kenmore sea plane. Here’s Captain Stu and his uke! Waiting for passengers, there’s time to practice his ukelele…

The Friday Harbor Presbyterian Church deacons will set up reserved seating in front of the church for seniors and those with special needs. The restroom facilities inside the church and at 395 Spring St. (house next door to the church) are handicapped accessible and will be available. Chairs with “Reserved” written on them will be placed along the sidewalk. Spaces will be available for wheelchairs also. Please call the church office with your name and number of guests needing reserved seating for the parade. 378-4544

• Did you hear that last night San Juan Pasta’s softball team snuck past Island Towing‘s team 10-5…it was IT’s first loss in seven years! Mike Martin, from the winning side, reported: “I can’t thank Island Towing’s softball team enough for showing a ton of class tonight. They had not been beaten in 7 years and tonight San Juan Pasta’s softball team beat them 10-5. They showed true sportsmanship and showed what a champion looks like.”
