Join the next Know Your Island Walk from 1 to 4 p.m., Saturday, May 27.

Local historian Boyd Pratt and Robin Jacobson of the San Juan Historical Society and Museum will lead a walk along the Airport Trail, up Cattle Point Road and Madden Lane, and then onto the St. Francis and Valley Cemeteries for a trip back in history.

Robin will be at St. Francis Cemetery at 1:30 p.m. for those who aren’t walking. Everyone will visit the gravesites of notable San Juan Island pioneer families. This will be an easy walk and dogs on a leash are welcome. Meet at Skagit Valley College parking lot.
