Cheers and Jeers, March 9

Cheers to Kyle and the crew from Hansen’s Tree Service who responded immediately to our call after the strong winds in Gig Harbor on Monday uprooted a huge tree in our yard and left the tree leaning dangerously over our property. They cut the tree down and prevented harm to our home.

Cheers to the Gig Harbor Les Schwab for supporting the Gig Harbor Junior Race Sail team! Thank for making sure the sailors have safe trailers for transporting boats to regional regattas for competition. We are so happy you support our youth.

Cheers to the management team at Main & Vine. After initially downloading an app for the store, I lost it. I did not want to miss out on the benefits of this app, so when I was in the store I asked for help. The manager of the store came and he was amazing, patient, and worked to help me with redoing this app. He even bought me a beautiful fancy coffee. Thank you, Main & Vine, and its wonderful manager. You make our small town proud.

Jeers to the growing number of motorists that forget — even in Gig Harbor — RED means STOP!
