New Camp Orkila Country Store

After many years of service the Orkila Country Store is being replaced.  While many of us are sad to see the funky, well-used, fern roofed and much loved store go it had just become to run-down to save.

Demolition and construction will start next week, but before we tear it down for good we thought the new Orcas Island Fire recruits might get some training in.  On the day they were here it was too windy to burn, but they did practice their ax and chain saw techniques.

Enjoy the photos below and check in on this blog every few weeks for construction updates.
