I've been visiting John's Pass Village & Boardwalk since I was 10 years old. I've seen the Pass grow from just a few mom and pop shops, to one of the biggest tourist attractions. I was able to get an up close and personal look when I worked in the Pass for three years.

 

I wanted to show a different perspective of the Pass rather than your regular tourist site. 

​

I want people to understand the history, how some of the shops started, and the people who help make the Pass thrive.

 

I hope you enjoy my site as much as I loved working on it!
