Eighth-grade student Isaiah Thompson started spending time in the music room before football prac- tice last fall and liked to sit at the piano. "I started showing him scales," Joyner said. "He decided he wanted to play in the band." Now Thompson can play full songs on the keyboard in the high school band class. .... "These kids are progressing so rapidly," Joyner said.

Harstine Continued from page B-1 financially. When Judy came home from that meeting she was very excited. As has been reported in the column before, Turning Pointe needs all the financial help it can get as the state support has been cut drastically. I know the shelter greatly thanks the Worn- en's Club. The last lecture of the year for Inquiring Minds will be at 2 p.m. on Sunday at the community hall. The guest speaker will be Joan Hockaday. She is the author of"Greenscapes: Olmsted's Pacific Northwest," published by Wash- ington State University Press in 2009. Hockaday has explored and written on landscape history elsewhere on the West Coast with her first book "The Gardens of San Francisco," an exploration of the natural history, including histories of its parks and gardens of San Francisco. She has given numerous lectures on topics re- lated to her books at the Museum of Arts and Culture in Spokane, the Seattle Public Library and the Rainier Club. Now she will be speaking here on the island at the community hall. Mary Nichols and Barbara LaJune are heading up our an- nual Harstine Island Garage Sale on Saturday, March 31. The event will be held at the com- munity hall. If you want a table give Mary or Barbara a call to see if there are still openings. Judy and I have attended in the past and this year we will have a table of our own. It gives islanders a chance to get rid of treasures they no longer need and shoppers can find treasures they just can't live without. Usually the hall is packed and filled with excite- ment. So mark your calendar and bring some spare change. Sewing will be at Brenda Stainbrook's house March 27. Okay Harstine Island students, now is the time to be working on those scholarship applica- tions. The Harstine Island Wom- en's Club has for years offered a couple of real good ones. The deadline for getting applications in is May 4. So, if you are a Harst- ine Island resident and if you are graduating from high school, or you are attending a college, university or vocational school, you can apply for the Women's Club $1,000 scholarships. The club will pay the money directly to the students' school of choice with proof of attendance. Applica- tions are available from school counselors at Olympic Community College (Shelton) and South Puget Sound Community college; North Mason, Shelton and CHOICE high schools. Also they can be found at Sound Learning (Mason Co. Literacy). Additional applications may be obtained from Harstine Island Women's club Scholarship Committee; Attn: Scholarship Committee c/o Sandra Herndon, 449 Pointes Drive E., Shelton WA, 98584. And as I noted, these ap- plications need to be turned in by May 4, so that means you have to start working on them now.
