Please join Coast Salish Elders Rosie Cayou James and Bill Bailey for the first in a series of salmon ceremonies to honor Tokitae who died at Miami Seaquarium on August 18th. Additional dates and locations will be announced soon. The ceremony will take place at the Whale Wheel at the corners of Front and Alexander Streets, on the shores of Penn Cove where Tokitae was captured 53 years ago. That request that everyone wear black and white. There will be cedar available to place in the water during the ceremony, but feel free to bring your own if you would like.
The evening will also include words from Howard Garrett and Susan Berta of Orca Network and Mayor Molly Hughes of Coupeville. This event is sponsored by Orca Network, Town of Coupeville, Port of Coupeville, Coupeville Chamber, Friends of Ebey's, Ebey's Landing Trust Board, Penn Cove Water Festival, and so many people who love Tokitae and want to remember and honor her. We hope to livestream this event for those who are unable to attend in person.

Friends of Ebey's is partnering with the Island County Noxious Weed Board on a scotch broom weed pull Monday, May 1 from 10 am to 12 pm.
Warmer weather means the weeds are beginning to grow in earnest. Join us for a volunteer Scotch broom pull event along the Kettles trails. Bring gloves and any small hand tools if desired. We will have weed wrenches and other tools available to help with removal work.
We will meet at the parking lot where the main paved kettles trail enters the kettles trail complex. Limited parking space so carpooling if possible recommended.
