A History Talk with Gerry King
Posted July 28, 2014 at 3:15 pm by Tim Dustrude
Back by popular demand, an informative evening with Gerry King, a long-time San Juan Island resident and a descendant of the early settler King Family.
Gerry’s last visit with us was so well received he would like to continue the conversation. Gerry will talk about what it was like to grow up on the Island in the 1930’s & 1940’s, and the various jobs he held as a young man including working on threshing crews, at the Friday Harbor Packing Company and in the quarries at Roche Harbor. He invites other to share their stories as well. Join us for a fun and informative evening as we turn the clock back to an earlier era.
