Port Townsend Repair Event – Sat, Nov 1st
Join JeffCo Repair for this free community gathering in which people with repair skills share their time and talents to fix their neighbors’ belongings.

There will be volunteers donating their time to help repair: small appliances/electronics; textiles/clothes; bicycles; and other household items. For more information, call Mandi Johnson at 360-385-5582 ext 115 or visit the event page. Learn more about this and other upcoming Repair Events at the JeffCo Repair website.

Calling Local Photographers!
Local 20/20 Weekly Announcements invites local photographers to submit images that capture the character of our community and its natural setting. For the opening photo of each weekly email (which is also posted to our website), we seek local color, horizontal (“landscape”) orientation, and jpeg format. Please no children, pets, or recognizable faces. Kindly email your photos, including your name in the jpeg filename. If you’re sending multiple images, please send one per email. We are an all-volunteer non-profit, so compensation for your talent and generosity is a photo credit and our profound thanks.
