Busy, busy, busy.
Coupeville School District Social Work Coordinator Arianna Bumgarner is keeping the calendar full, with numerous upcoming events.
On the docket:
Central Whidbey Community Resource and Career Fair (May 23 – 3:00-5:00 PM)
Bumgarner and associates have 50+ vendors lined up for this event, which includes local businesses, schools, and scholarship providers, in addition to resource providers.
The Department of Health Care-A-Van will be on site, offering health screenings, vaccinations, and take-home resources. Appointments are recommended but not required.
Also, the DSHS Mobile Service Unit will be available to assist families in completing EBT (food stamp) applications, as well as applying for other DSHS services.
The fair is open to all community members, but there will also be a session earlier in the day for students in grades 8-12 to tour the fair and receive focused attention from providers and hiring agencies.
Bumgarner is seeking volunteers for the fair, and you can sign up here:

Following the Fair, the Student Support Program runs the Summer Opportunities for Coupeville Kids (SOCK) program, which is aimed at providing support to students in accessing lessons, camps, clubs, and activities to keep them engaged while school is out.
