Summer is here! That means sunshine, Orcas visitors, and lots of cool stuff to discover at The Exchange! It also means something else: traffic. We are concerned about this at The Exchange; with our growing popularity and the summer influx of visitors, traffic on site could become a challenge. We ask from you two favors--your patience, and that you follow the direction of signs and staff. Generally, remember to drive clockwise, around The Exchange building. When in doubt, follow the big yellow arrows!

Annual EXCHANGE @ THE GRANGE SWAP MEET a Success
We had a lot of fun at our Memorial Day weekend SWAP Meet! Vendors at the Grange sold tons of stuff; The Exchange was hopping; we had an awesome "Trashion Fashion" show, and we took in almost $4,000 in our silent auction! Thanks to The Orcas Grange, Brett McFarland and Jill Sherman for hosting a bike repair clinic, Brook Meinhardt for running the junk art program, Asifa Pasin for the fashion show, Mark Mayer and Jan Ehrlichman for feeding everyone hot dogs, and everyone who donated items to our auction!
