DJ Moose and members of Mussel Flats and Ike and the Old Man were scheduled to perform at Coupeville’s New Year’s Eve bash.

Mother Nature wins this round.

With snow and ice coating Whidbey Island, a New Year’s Eve event planned for the Coupeville Rec Hall has been postponed.

The family-friendly affair, which is a fundraiser for the CHS Class of 2022, has been rescheduled for Saturday, Feb. 12.

“The safety of our community members comes first and foremost,” said event organizer Stephanie Grimm Streitler.

“I’m very saddened by this decision, but it has to be done. Thank you for your understanding and support.”

Tickets already purchased will be honored in February, or you can obtain a refund by contacting Streitler at (360) 622-6059.

Snowmageddon 2019 has claimed another event. But not permanently.

The season finale for the youth basketball league run by Coupeville High School coaches and players, originally set for Saturday, Feb. 9, is being pushed back a week.

The final week of lessons and games, as well as pictures, will go down 9 AM next Saturday, Feb. 16.

Unless we’re entering a new ice age. Then check back later for updates.
