The Economic Development Council board of directors and staff would like to convey their sincerest gratitude for the recent generous donation from the San Juan Island Community Foundation for our upcoming electrical basics training course.

We could not offer the trades programs we do without funding from our community partners including the San Juan Island and Orcas Island community foundations, San Juan County, the Town of Friday Harbor, the Washington State Department of Commerce and our local banks and businesses, nor without the press coverage given to our programs by local news media including the Journal of the San Juan Islands.

Thank you to everyone who has helped to make these trades programs a reality — together, we are helping to transform the careers of many islanders.

Victoria Compton

Director, San Juan County EDC
