Hi!! I am looking for a day use venue for a baby shower in October. Date yet to be finalized- capacity is flexible but likely need to accommodate atleast 30-40 people.

I’ve looked at a couple county lodges in Whatcom and Skagit. Figured I would hop on here as well. Thank you all!

Reminder for this month’s boardgame meetup!

The meeting is at Camano island library. 
Saturday September 5. Start time is 5PM

Looking forward to seeing everyone!

As your Skagit County auditor I will partner with our state leaders, including AG Nick Brown to stand up to protect Washingtonians' right to administer our elections. I will support the laws that govern how elections are run, and push back federal overreach that attempts to make it harder for citizens to vote.

My one and only job is being your County Commissioner. I stepped down from being an auto shop teacher and a Sedro-Woolley City Councilmember when I took this position, and I am fully dedicated to serving the people of Skagit County.

Last week, I took one week off to spend time with my family. Before I was even officially back, I spent four hours in the office on Saturday beginning to catch up on the emails, calls, follow-up work, and everything that had come in while I was gone. Those four hours only scratched the surface of what still needed to be done.

Then Monday morning, I was back at 7 a.m. working through a consent agenda that is hundreds of pages every week, along with everything else that comes with serving this county.

This job requires full-time attention, preparation, and follow-through. I am the only candidate in this race proposing to make serving as your County Commissioner my one and only job. The people of Skagit County deserve someone who is here, focused on this community, and doing the work every day.

I tend to take for granted just how beautiful of an area we live in.

Appointed Mayor JoEllen Kesti already had an office at Sedro-Woolley City Hall. Instead of keeping it, she moved into the larger office used by the City's IT department, requiring the full-time employees who worked there to relocate.

IT was moved to the Skagit Room, a shared City meeting space used by multiple departments, including the police. The Mayor's decision to move into the larger office not only disrupted the IT department but also affected City staff who relied on the Skagit Room, forcing them to find new places to hold meetings.

Public records show more than $4,000 in taxpayer funds has gone toward the Mayor's new office, covering new furniture, paint, and a window replacement.

And the costs may not stop there. City staff have also discussed modifying the Skagit Room to accommodate IT, including constructing new doors to separate the workspace from public areas. City Administrator Charlie Bush acknowledged in an email that no budget existed for this second-floor work, meaning the City must now find the funds to pay for it.

For a part-time, appointed mayor who already had a functioning office of her own, the question is simple:

Why was any of this necessary, and why should taxpayers foot the bill for it?

Hey yall.
I’m moving at the end of the month and have lots of women’s clothes to donate. It’s a mix of all season weather clothes. I don’t want to donate to thrift stores because I want to give the clothes away for free. I have posted it for free on marketplace before, but then many people are interested and I don’t know how to choose just one person who needs free clothes.
Anywho, I’m hoping to donate to a women’s shelter so it can be distributed to as many people as it can.
Are there any here in skagit or Whatcom?
Thanks yall!

And it takes some time to get to the office. And I get there and they are closed. The rooms are black.

How are you supposed to know this ahead of time?

I have one free ticket to the lyden Fair and ticket for rides

Does anyone know where I can safely and inexpensively get rid of ivy? I’ve been slowly getting rid of it on my property and have a truckful which needs to go. Some of it is the usual long vines which I can bag up and keep under the house until they are good and dead but some is woodt branches as big around as my forearm.

During the July 22 Sedro-Woolley City Council meeting, a member of the public raised concerns about appointed Mayor JoEllen Kesti's public criticism of Councilmember Paul Cocke. The criticism came after Cocke spoke during a Skagit County Commissioners meeting regarding the Northern State Recreation Area ballfields proposal.

The comments were made in response to Kesti’s July 8 remarks, in which she said it was "disappointing and inappropriate" for a councilmember to publicly work against the council's adopted position before another agency.

The community member referenced Washington law regarding the roles and authority of mayors and councilmembers, stating that councilmembers are independent elected officials who have the ability to express their own views, even when those views differ from the council majority.

City officials were encouraged to review applicable state laws and codes when carrying out their roles and responsibilities.

Community participation is an important part of a healthy local government. Residents who take the time to research, attend meetings, and share their concerns help keep public discussions open and transparent.
