Hi Neighbors,

I’ve received a couple reports about the runway being really soft.  Navigate to the Runway page for specifics dated 3/17, but beware, the west end is pretty sloppy.

Looking west at East Stuart

The Humpback will be  out of service  March 21 – 29  for annual maintenance and inspection.  Please plan accordingly.

It looks like it was time for a new windsock. Thanks Rhys and your son McKenzie for putting in the new windsock assembly!  As usual, click on a picture to get a bigger version..

All,

The runway will be closed all day on Tuesday, December 2nd.  Plan accordingly.  Thanks.

We are required to have our septic tanks inspected periodically.  The inspection frequency varies.  Several of us took advantage of the free class that was offered a couple years ago allowing property owners to perform the inspection on their own property.

If you aren’t qualified to do your own tests you may have to have your system inspected by a qualified inspector.  Those that took the free class are only qualified to inspect their own systems.

Have any of you researched qualified inspectors?  I got an email from one of our owners asking if I had any info about this whole process.  The answer is no, I don’t, since I can do my own inspection.

Scott Munro is in need of this inspection, so if you have any info regarding this issue, or need a test, let me know via email and I’ll get the info to Scott.  Maybe a group of you can work together and get an inspector onto the island to do several inspections at once and defray some costs.  Email me here and I’ll pass it on to Scott.

Labor Day is Monday, 9/1, but the annual Labor Day potluck will be held on Sunday, 8/31.

I post properties that are “for sale by owner” on this site – point at “Neighborhood”  then “Buying or Selling Property on Stuart Island”.  I sure hate to see good neighbors leave though.

Hi Everyone,

This year the July 4th events will be held on July 5th.  Here is the flyer that June will post at different locations on the island.

The minutes from the May Owners and Board meetings have been posted in the meeting minutes area.

On another note…

The July 4th activites will be held on July 5th this year.  Be there!
