Happy 19th Anniversay toO.L.A.E.
It’s hard to believe four women started this non-profit
starting with a small note from two women on thefence asking for volunteers. The note affected two
more women and soon, after asking the City ofEdmonds to allow for stewardship volunteers, all thered-tape for a 501(c)3 designation occurred andwww.olae.org came into being. Over the next 19years, many volunteers have helped to make thispark what it is today. Thank you ALL that have helpedout either financially, been a park volunteer or a
dedicated Board Member. We are thankful for theCity of Edmonds for providing this wonderful venuefor us. We must keep the park clean, so please help
scoop the poop.
