After three decades in office, Last Thursday was Jay Zahn’s official final day as the Door County Treasurer.  Zahn, who announced his retirement last July, was elected Door County Treasurer in 1990 and has been responsible for collecting property taxes ever since.  Carrying many pleasant memories with him for the rest of his life, Zahn shares what he will miss most about his work.

Jay’s uncle Chester Ostrand actually served as the Door County Treasurer for 18 years prior to Zahn taking office.  A Door County native, Zahn has been involved with many local organizations over the years including the Rotary Club of Sturgeon Bay, the Jaycees, the Miss Door County organization, and the Sevastopol Board of Education.
