Hey, If you were on island last Friday you heard the thunder. Big storms moved toward us from the Cascades. With the sun setting there was an interesting rainbow with the storm behind it, it was pretty amazing to watch.
Lightning hitting Waldron
I caught this photo from Ted Terens deck on the east end of Stuart and the island in view is Waldron.
All,
Vanderyacht Propane is scheduled to come to Stuart on Wed August 22. Anyone interested in propane should call them at 360-370-5511.
Pictures of the kids games have been posted on the picture page area under neighborhood information. Enjoy!
What is it? Read info here..
Happy Fathers Day all you Dads.
One of our neighbors just told me to check out Leap Frog Water Taxi. It looks like it might be a good option for getting to our island from Bellingham. I added it to the transportation page.
The draft minutes from the recent board and owners meetings have been posted in the Meeting minutes section in Neighborhood information.
The annual July 4th celebration will be held on July 7th this year. June posted some flyer around the island with the info – here is a copy of what she posted…
Under Neighborhood Info you’ll find an area called Barge Share/Forum. Jim Andrews is looking to see if anyone else needs a propane appliance hooked up by the propane company. I copied a message that he left before I had that forum set up. lt’s up and running now, I hope it is useful.
This is a short recap with highlights from the recent community meeting. I’ll post the draft minutes when they become available.
Fire Equipment will be updated with new pumps and motors
An aviation radio and headset will be acquired so that whoever is mowing the runway can contact or be contacted by aircraft taking off or landing.
Speeding vehicles on our roads (often younger folks) are an increasing problem, it was agreed that we should all politely say something to the speeder to try to keep this from becoming a bigger issue.
There have been a couple of individuals from the other side of the island that have been using our runway and we will follow-up to remind them that our runway is a private and to be used by owners and guest of owners only.
Burn pile “rules and etiquette” came up – basically, if it didn’t grow on the island and you can’t handle it yourself, don’t put it in the community burn pile. Please, no metal or manmade materials are allowed in the burn pile.
The 4th of July celebration will be on the Saturday the 7th.
The mail shack will needs repairs and a slight relocation.
The budget will stay at $135 per owner.
Rhys Spoor and Steve Knopp agreed to serve again, and were re-elected for another term. The board member officers will remain the same as they have been for the last year.
From Rhys “All in all, it was a productive meeting and each vote was unanimous with no dissents except for the time to celebrate the 4th.”
