Thank you members of the Odd Fellows. Through your generosity TEN deserving high school seniors received Odd Fellows Scholarships. We believe that supporting the educational goals of the Coastside youth supports the future of our community.

Joan Baez surprised everyone attending the showing of the documentary film “I Am A Noise” by spending time answering questions (with friend Jan Tiura) and then greeting people. An incredible film and an amazing woman, those attending appreciated her answers to question regarding her mental health journey, her singing career, and her activism for social justice issues.
