Parks and recreation recognizes Jeff Carrington for years of service

Posted

Blaine-Birch Bay Park and Recreation District 2 (BBBPRD2) commissioners thanked Jeff Carrington for over a decade of service on the parks and recreation board through a resolution of appreciation unanimously passed during its last meeting.

In 2012, Blaine and Birch Bay voters elected Carrington to the board, where he would serve as chair for seven years.

“Mr. Carrington has diligently and forthrightly carried out his duties on behalf of the district and in the best interest of the Blaine-Birch Bay communities,” the resolution read. “The Blaine-Birch Bay Park and Recreation District 2 Board of Commissioners individually and collectively commend Mr. Jeff Carrington for his service to BBBPRD2 …”

Carrington’s passion for youth sports brought youth programming and Saturday open gym to the Birch Bay Activity Center, the resolution states. He was committed to responsibly allocating public funds and preparing annual budgets. Along with other commissioners, Carrington approved funding for playgrounds, property acquisitions and financing for youth sports.

Carrington left the board at the end of 2023 after deciding to not run for re-election.

The parks and recreation commissioners passed the resolution on February 13.
