Hello Drifters,

I’ve been out of town for awhile, but am glad to be back in time for the merry, jolly, happy season of giving and celebration on Whidbey. What better place to come home to for the holidays? 

Speaking of the holidays, the SWHS Choir entered the “High School Stars of Christmas” competition through KAFE radio (104.3 FM) and have been selected as a finalist. The choir needs votes in order to win the $1000 to be used for the music program. Go to the KAFE Web site and click on the Christmas ornament in the scrolling “Sounds of Christmas” box on the top left and cast a vote. You can listen to their Christmas recording of “Holly Jolly Christmas,” as well.

Remember, shop local and support all the excellent merchants and artisans on the island. Happy Holiday shopping!
