Spring has sprung
Our community continues to make me proud. Hats off to the first responders and neighbors who coordinated efforts to support the Ledgewood community in the wake of the landslide. Details follow on how you too can help. The Commissioners will revisit roadside recycling later this month. And I want to highlight the work of a local organization actively supporting economic development. Enjoy the sunbreaks and be sure to splash in a few mud puddles this month just for the fun of it! |
Whidbey Slide Relief Fund
Our amazing community has pulled together to support the neighbors impacted by the recent slide. A benefit concert is scheduled for Saturday, April 6th from 2-7pm at Greenbank Farm, with a variety of musical groups including the one and only Johnny Bulldog. Tickets are $20. If you'd like to donate and cannot attend, you may do so at any Wells Fargo Bank branch.
The March 27th landslide at Ledgewood Beach was bigger than anything in recent memory and though many households were severely impacted, thankfully no one was injured. This event drew national media attention and many of us heard from far away friends and family as a result. After a tremendous community coordinated response the emergency incident command now rests with the County. Click here for updates on the slide area and recovery efforts through the County website.
