Apr 30 2008
The third class of San Juan County/WSU Beach Watchers graduated April 24 after attending nearly 100 hours of classroom training and field experience in the San Juan County marine and watershed environment.
The new class of Beach Watchers included 10 members from Orcas Island, two from Lopez and nine from San Juan Island. Extension Director Tom Schultz and Program Coordinator Shann Weston addressed the graduating class and handed out Graduation Certificates to the new WSU Beach Watcher Volunteers.
Says Weston, “I have been honored to coordinate Beach Watchers’ Training for these special volunteers. Many instructors have contributed to make this experience informative and valuable. The Beach Watchers now have an opportunity to give back to their community with service hours.”

From Orcas Island: Keston Blaustein, Ulanah McCoy, Edrie Vinson, Mairi Stagg, Andria Hagstrom, Quinn Hagstrom, Cheryl Kummer, Raven Sky, Dawna Zimbalist, Monica Kezar, and Kameko Joseph.
