The Sno-King Chapter was formed in 1995 so that retired Boeing employees in Snohomish and north King counties could enjoy the benefits of being a Bluebill and volunteer their time and skills in helping their neighboring communities. 

Sno-King members have found many different ways to serve our communities in general, and our neighbors in particular. For example, in 2009 we contributed over 17,000 volunteer hours to various projects ranging from Christmas gifts for needy families, sewing quilts and clothing for various charities, repacking hundreds of science kits used in the Everett school classrooms and stuffing over 3000 backpacks for needy Everett school children.  See Projects for more detailed information on Bluebills volunteer activities, a few of which are illustrated here.

The late Ed Bartels arrived early as Sno-King Bluebills met to assist a family move to new accommodations. He was devoted to Mighty Movers even through a lengthy illness.		Sno-King member, LeRoy Raymond, serves as Post Commander of the American Legion in Everett, whose goals are support of veterans affairs and rehabilitation, children and youth, national security and Americanism.

This effort each year is in support of the Everett Salvation Army.

We also pay particular attention to the well being of our fellow Bluebills who may have special needs because of health or financial problems.  Bluebills enjoy tremendous feelings of pride and satisfaction for the hours we devote to these causes. And those we help realize that someone cares and they don't have to face their concerns alone.
