A special community forum sponsored by the Vashon-Maury Island Community Council will be held at 7 p.m. Feb. 24, at McMurray Middle School. Speakers and attendees will air a subject that all Islanders have in common and deal with daily — trash.
Betsy Peabody of the Puget Sound Restoration Fund will be the featured guest at the Vashon-Maury Island Community Council’s next general membership meeting, which will be held at 7:30 p.m. Monday, Feb. 15, at McMurray Middle School, its new meeting location.
