Recreation Director Russ Harrington began his journey in Rec. through the Boy Scouts of America where he grew a passion for the outdoors. One of his favorite accomplishments along his path was earning his Eagle Scout. He attended Central Washington University and graduated with a Bachelors Degree in Recreation Management in 1997. After college Russ moved down to Coos Bay, OR taking a district position with the Boy Scouts where he met his wife before moving back home to Quincy. While growing up, through starting a family, he has spent hundreds of hours enjoying all things outdoors with his wife and children: hunting, hiking, mountain biking, rock climbing, or coaching and cheering on his kids at youth sports, they were always recreating. Now that his kids are grown Russ enjoys volunteering to MC at Wrestling matches and exploring new places with his wife.
