Take the “Island Time” challenge with San Juan Islands during COVID-19
Aired on April 4, 2020
Join us as we take the “Island Time” challenge with the San Juan Islands during COVID-19. Despite being an island paradise, the San Juan Islands have not been immune to the coronavirus. Barbara Marrett from the San Juan Islands shares how the virus has impacted the islands, though the effects have been minimal due to limited accessibility via ferry service and the swift implementation of health guidelines by Washington’s Governor.
In this video, Barbara highlights the incredible ways the tight-knit communities on the San Juan Islands are supporting each other while practicing social distancing. She also introduces two engaging programs that people nationwide can participate in. The first is an online family-fun science program sponsored by the SeaDoc Society, created by a San Juan Islands resident, featuring free educational videos about sealife. The second is the fun and interactive social media “island time” challenge.
As Barbara says, “you can experience island time at any time and anywhere.” Take a much-needed break from COVID-19 and participate in the #SanJuanIslandsTime challenge. Share your “island time” moments on social media and join a community dedicated to spreading positivity and connection.
