Marilyn O’Connor will retire on June 30 from the Port of Friday Harbor. She has been with the Port for 31 years. Since November 2007 she has served as Executive Director. Before then, she held the positions of Port Auditor and Deputy Director.
Over the course of three decades Marilyn has participated in most projects and programs that have taken place at the Marina, at Jackson Beach Park and at Friday Harbor Airport. Most recently she managed the $9 million reconstruction of Spring Street Landing, which will be complete later this summer.
“I’ve been lucky to work in a place I care about, with great people, doing work for our community. I love our small town and being outside, so this has been a good place for me. I want to thank everyone for their support and participation over the years.”
Marilyn will continue living on the island. “Seems like a perfect place to retire, and I already live here!”
Come say goodbye Saturday June 25th, 12:00 to 3:00 pm at the Port Waterfront Park. Music, Cake & Refreshments, see you there!
