What’s going on here?

A few things happening – First, Teddy Deane of the San Juan Arts Council would like to publicly thank the SJICF for their help and support:

The San Juan County Arts Council would like to thank the San Juan Island Community Foundation for their support and assistance through the first official year (2012) of our existence. From our very beginnings in 2009 the SJICF has been there for us and instrumental in getting the Arts Council up, running, and serving the County Community both with it’s financial support as well as it’s encouragement and assistance. We could not have done it without you. We appreciate your concern for all the community’s needs and especially your recognition that the Arts, in a very fundamental way, help make a community healthy, strong and vibrant.

Sincerely,

Teddy Deane
Past-president SJCAC

Give ’em a piece of your mind:

Are you into outdoor recreation? Would you like to let the Washington State Recreation and Conservation Office know how you feel about spending their limited money? We have quite a few State Parks, right here in San Juan County and if you like, you can complete this Survey, to give your views on whether they should put emphasis on maintaining existing services or adding new ones.
