Help FICRA Update The 2012 Fox Island Phone Book
Sunday, July 01, 2012 
Volunteers are needed to get a head start this year on updating our "little" local Fox Island phone book. This book is for island residents only, and is not made available to the general public. If you are a member of FICRA, you can pick your phone book up at the annual Fox Island fair. We need help in identifying changes in names and numbers. Please e-mail us with any changes, additions, etc. to your listing. If you want to put your ad in the phone book, it must be ready to print and sent to us by e-mail.
If you would prefer a phone number only in the book and no address, please let us know this also.
Thank You!
