Our Town Our Park update

I live on Storvik Park so I’ve been watching this volunteer project progress and I am nothing short of amazed by the effort put forth by this towns volunteers. Makes me really think twice about why this is such a great community and such a great place to live.

The things that usually spring to my mind are the Anacortes Community Forrest Lands, the many marina’s, the amazing views around Fidalgo Island, that place where this community of laid back people goes to….well, lay back - Guemes Island, the amazing restaurants and pubs, the small town shops with local owners, the farmers market, a school system second to none, the list goes on. However what really makes this town special, is the people. The people I’m seeing everyday out in this Park giving their time, their sweat and their dollars to make this little community even better day by day. That’s what makes Anacortes amazing, much more than views, waterfront properties, boats and burgers.

Oh, and a shout out to Curt Oppel, a fellow Realtor. I’ve seen Curt out working on this project for the last week practically all day long, every day. He’s been on this project from the start I believe and has been out there in the evenings all by himself prepping for build week, and out there all day today with all the volunteers and I’m sure he’ll be out there the rest of the week and weekend to see the project through. Outstanding job Curt.
