After 12 years of dedicated service, the Truckee Tahoe Airport District bids farewell to Mitchell Montgomery, who will be retiring later this month.

He's not just handy with tools, but also with building strong relationships among airport staff and tenants. With gratitude and warm wishes, we say goodbye, knowing his legacy of excellence will endure. Best of luck in your retirement, Mitch! You'll be missed around here.  Click post heading for picture.
