Originally our library occupied one room in the Friday Harbor Town Hall building. It was staffed by volunteers without any paid employees. In June 1983 the Town notified the Library Board that the Town needed the space and the library would be required to move. The Library Board selected a closed restaurant (called the Shrimp Boat) building and sold the citizens on the purchase of the building.
Hello fellow islanders. Welcome to the new face of hate on San Juan Island. Our local Pride Foundation has morphed from the hated to the haters, the bullied to the town bullies. They stampeded both the Grange and the Mullis Center into cancelling an appearance by a young man named Nicolas Blooms who was invited to the island to talk about his personal journey in and out of transgenderism. Not political, not polemical, not hostile or antagonistic and certainly not hateful. Merely his own story about identity suffering and ultimately healing his soul.
