December 11, 2012 · Updated 2:36 PM 

Discounts don’t get any deeper than this.

The recently formed Island Rec support group, Family and Neighbors Support, or FANS, will be giving away dozens of pairs of roller skates for free, Saturday, Dec. 15.

The ‘Give-a-Way’ is at the Island Rec office, 580 Guard Street, beginning at 10 a.m., and skate sizes range from kids to adult, and are in good working condition. Skates will be distributed on a first-come, first-serve basis. Doors open early, at 9:30 a.m., for FAN Club members.

Established this spring, Fans has adopted a mission of enhancing park and recreation programs and facilities for residents of San Juan Island by promoting goodwill, and by broadening the funding base of San Juan Island Park and Recreation District, or Island Rec. One of the many programs sponsored by Island Rec is Family Skate Night, Saturdays, 7-8:30 p.m., at the fairgrounds main exhibit hall. For info, 378-4953, or www.islandrec.org.
