Well, as it happens the first ride share calendar did not really work as well as I would have liked. So, I changed it. I hope that this one is user friendly. Because the information is on the open web and accessible to anyone that wants to look at it, I have chosen to made it impossible for the general public to modify the calendar. If you have a ride request or produce pickup/delivery request to put on the calendar, please either call me or email me for the password. Then you can log on as an individual and make changes as you need to. You should only have to do this once and you will be able to log at will. I apologize in advance for the necessity of taking this step, but I don't want just anyone to be able to change our calendar. If you give me your email address I can also send out a message to everyone in the "group" when a new request has been made. So, call 378-4600 for the password or email me at girlfriday@rockisland.com.Click Here To Go To The Calendar

Our First Participant!

I'm excited to report that we have our first participant in the ride share calendar!! Cate McKee called a couple of days ago saying that she had heard of the service and was willing to participate. So, she gave me her information for May 3 and I have posted it. She then went on to ask what my success rate was and I had to laugh and tell her that it had just started, but we could hope it would be successful for her.
The key to this calendar working for us is active participation. There has been a fair amount of traffic looking at it, but no one seems to be willing to take the plunge. Well, jump in- the water's fine  I have also had a person call asking if he could put a need for ferry tickets at discounted prices or the offer of ferry tickets at the discounted price on the calendar - that is very much an option.

Transportation Issues

I've lived in the islands for several years now and have always been aware that there is a need for a central location for people to go to find out who's going to the mainland and when. As in.... "John" is going to Seattle on Thurs, March 25 and has room for 2 people..... "Jane" is going to Seattle on Thurs, March 25 and needs a ride and would be willing to help pay for gas. "Mark" is flying into Seattle on Thurs, March 25 and is willing to split the cost of the charter flight from Orcas/Friday Harbor to Boeing....willing to help pay for gas..... you get the idea. So, I have decided that I will undertake this task. I have posted a "Going off Island Calendar", through Google and it requires you to create an account in order to post an event. If you would rather not create an account, email me or call me and I will post it for you. With any luck this will be useful for all of us. My number at Girl Friday is 378-4600 or email me at girlfriday@rockisland.com.
