Once again, Fidalgo Island Rotary members host one of Anacortes' favorite booths at Waterfront Festival - the FREE Kids Boat Building Booth! Each year, FIR facilitates the building, creation and gathering of all the supplies, including the wood boat hulls, sails and boat decorations. The club helps kids build boats and test them in a large pool. Building a boat is a longstanding tradition for many in Anacortes - many parents tell us they still have their OWN boat they built when they were a kid as they now bring their own children to the booth.
Thank you to all who make this awesome event possible!
We were honored to welcome four new members into Fidalgo Island Rotary this week (with one more to be inducted next week!) Congrats to Jon New, William Gross, Julianne Sem and Joseph Windekind (pictured here with their mentors.)
Welcome to the FUN Club; we're excited to have you!
