I just received this message from the board…
Hello all,
At the yearly meeting, it was proposed that the 4th of July activities this year be held on Saturday, July 1st. After some consideration, and a realization that many people won’t even be arriving until Saturday this year (as the 4th falls closer to a Monday than a Friday, and many will be spending Monday / Tuesday on the island), the board is moving the date for the festivities to be Sunday, July 2nd instead. The potluck will also be moved to Sunday, rather than Saturday.
Additionally, I’ve had a number of inquiries about fair shares and other flying discounts from San Juan Airlines. For those of you who are unaware, Charlene and I are the new owners of the airline.
At some point, I’ll be working to set something up specifically for the island for consolidated cargo runs, charter ‘fare shares’ and other package opportunities. However, in the meantime, please feel free to send me an e-mail with your summer time flying requests, and we’ll be more than happy to try and coordinate with other islanders looking to share a charter. We run regular charters from Anacortes and Bellingham, but can basically fly anywhere within 150 miles of Bellingham rather easily.
Many thanks, we look forward to seeing you on July 2!
