First District Skagit County Commissioner Ron Wesen was recently elected 2017 Chair of the Board of Commissioners, the County’s governing body. District 1 includes Anacortes. Among Wesen’s responsibilities are representation of the County on boards including the Emergency Management Council, Law & Justice Council, NW Clean Air Agency and NW Regional Council. The other two County commissioners are Ken Dahlstedt and Lisa Janicki. The Board recently approved a $219.9 million operating budget for 2017. (Wesen pictured at a 2016 United Way event)

About Photographer Steve Berentson

A fourth generation Skagit County native who was moved kicking and screaming from this island community in 1960. I finally reclaimed an Anacortes address in 1980, and I have been in constant celebration of my return since that time. Many of us who call Anacortes home love Fidalgo Island for its natural assets: among them are rugged beaches, pristine lakes, thousands of acres of forestland and some awesome views of the Skagit Valley and surrounding islands. Another element of my love affair with this community is its people, both natives and immigrants. They will “star” in many of my journal entries.
