Yet Camano, a friend in need, is fortunate to have fine friends indeed. Their deeds can be seen all around the island. A dedicated group, Friends of Camano Island Parks, has been working quietly behind the scenes to save Camano's rural island character and enhance recreation areas.
Parks are so important to our lives.
The Friends' three goals are stewardship, education and acquisition. They maintain parks and build trails, develop nature programs and acquire natural areas. It's fun because we get things done. I certainly have made good friends. She and other volunteers were out in the February wind and rain, raking ditches at Camano Island State Park.
