On August 29, 2010 we celebrated the Grand Opening of the long awaited health clinic on Tangier Island and honored Dr. David B. Nichols.
To all of our supporters and friends over the last five years and beyond, many of whom traveled great distances, we sincerely thank you for giving of your time and treasure to make the journey by land and bay to be present on this special day.
