Here are a few notes from around the island: • Last night, Mary Nash & the Doctor’s Office staff hosted about forty people for the Chamber of Commerce meeting, serving up lasagna & salad that couldn’t be beat.

Ya gotta like what you see on the hardwood lately. On Friday night, the Wolverine boys thumped visiting Orcas 61-44 behind a stingy defense & opportunistic shooting. The score wasn’t that close either – FHHS was ahead 55-29 near the end of the third quarter. Saturday, the Wolverines had a tough time with Lynden Christian Continue Reading
