Music has always been part of our history – the Stillaguamish Band was always on hand for events to celebrate our community!

Thanks to the South End String Band for their great lively music Saturday nite!
They win our local Grammy award for best band.  And thank you to all of those attendees who supported the Stanwood Area Historical Society with their donations!

This weekend was also the Camano Schoolhouse Foundation’s unveiling of its new Jack Gunter mural for the former fire station building which will become an exhibit area for Camano Island history.  Along with that they are preparing to raise the school bell to the roof of our local historic schoolhouse.

Support preservation of our local history ! If you couldn’t make it to the concert, you can still support our local history and its preservation with your membership or donations!
(See our paypal/credit card link on the sidebar!)

Also – note that Seattle music historian and recent SAHS speaker Peter Blecha posted a bio about local musician Zona Lillian McConnell (1884-1977) who lived on Madrona Beach on historylink.org !
