The San Juan County Conservation Land Bank and San Juan Preservation Trust are celebrating our newest collaboration together and YOU’RE INVITED!
Please join County Council, and staff and commissioners/directors from both organizations between the hours of 10am to 2pm, Saturday, September 24 at the North
Shore/Glenwood Inn property on Orcas Island.
Meander from the upland to the shoreline and learn about the property’s mature forests, wetlands, shoreline, and the tidelands that support eelgrass and forage fish.
Due to limited on-site parking, the Land Bank has organized a roundtrip shuttle bus from Orcas Island High School to the Preserve. Park your car in the student and guest parking
area only; the shuttle will pick up/drop off on the half hour, starting at 9:45am.
For more information, contact Tanja Williamson by calling 360-378-4402 or email tanjaw@sjclandbank.org.
