Pick up a paddle and help support local students and teachers.

The Community Foundation for Coupeville Public Schools is hosting a pickleball fundraiser Oct. 19 at the CHS gym, with the proceeds going to help the group’s work in the classroom.

The foundation provides enrichment grants for teachers and scholarships for teachers, as well as funding the Promise Fund, which supports equity in education.

Whether you’re a pickleball pro or have never played, all skill levels are welcome.

“This is a social, a fundraiser, and a chance to get a little exercise while benefitting a great non-profit organization!” event organizer James Steller said. “We want everyone to have fun.”

There will be a category for people who consider themselves beginners or novices, with another category for those who “think they are a bit better or just OK.”

Each category is limited to 24 players, forming 12 teams.

The event will feature a round robin format, with 3-5 games guaranteed depending on how many people show up.

Lunch, snacks, and drinks will be sold, with a raffle and door prizes as well.

Don’t want to take the court yourself? You can still donate to the cause.

They’re pushing hard for the finish line, and you can help.

The Coupeville High School Class of 1974 celebrated its 50th reunion recently, and a fundraiser in honor of former teachers Jim and Linda Hosek is booming.

The drive, which is scheduled to wrap up Aug. 31, has raised more than $5,300 so far.

The plan is to issue a $2,000 scholarship honoring the Hoseks to a graduating member of the CHS Class of 2025, with the remaining money being dispersed by the Community Foundation for Coupeville Public Schools through its Promise Fund.

Jim and Linda Hosek

“The response has been humbling,” said Jennifer (Toth) Henning, a ’74 grad who has helped spearhead the fundraiser. “We want to finish strong.”

The Hoseks, who taught and coached for many years in the local community, both at Coupeville High School and Skagit Valley College, were hugely influential on their students.

Numbers stayed consistent.

The 2024 edition of Race the Reserve featured 273 runners rambling across the prairie Saturday, slightly down from last year’s 277.

The 5K and 10K attracted 100 and 91 runners, respectively, while the half marathon, with 82 competitors, was up 11 from a year ago.

Jarrett Manca won the premier event, hitting the finish line in one hour, 28 minutes, 46.87 seconds, while Cataldo DiDonna (35:49.62) and Galina Free (20:36.45) finished first in the shorter races.
