Are you a stamp or two shy of entering your passport into a drawing for an all-day cruise along the coasts of Whidbey and Camano Islands?

Stop by our office lobby on a Friday, December 4 to check out our “Land Keepers” display and get your “Youth Fotostory” stamp. Or, come to our Holiday Open House and check out the display before 6:00 and get your stamp just in time for the drawing. These fabulous photo essays tell the stories of four historic Island County families and why they love their land so much. If you’ve done some of the activities on your passport but have not received your visa stamp, bring your passport and we’ll make it right.
