Blog Skagit Splash and a Long-Standing Legacy

As spring approaches, the Skagit Valley readies itself for a breathtaking transformation. The fields will soon be painted in vibrant hues—first, the cheerful yellow of blooming daffodils, followed by the iconic array of tulip colors that draw visitors from near and far. These blossoms aren't just a feast for the eyes; they represent a deep connection to the valley's rich history. Over the years, the tulip fields have evolved, just as the community and its businesses have adapted to the changing times.

Scott Richards Insurance has been a cornerstone of the Anacortes business community since 1951, known for its unwavering commitment to providing top-tier insurance solutions and exceptional customer service. As decades passed, the company grew under the leadership of Scot Buchanan and his team, adapting to meet the changing needs of its clients while staying true to its core values.

Smiley Insurance Services, founded in 1995, shared a similar dedication to excellence. Led by Shellie Eubanks-Highet and Michelle Axelson, their team built a strong reputation within the community and the insurance industry, always striving to deliver the best for their clients.

In 2023, these two respected businesses took a bold step forward to form North Cascade Insurance, a move that reflects the spirit of collaboration and growth inherent to the Skagit Valley. In order to expand their access to insurance markets, they joined the Leavitt Group, ensuring they could continue to meet the evolving needs of their clients with enhanced resources and expertise.

Just as the Skagit Valley's colorful fields remind us of nature's resilience and beauty, North Cascade Insurance stands as a testament to the enduring strength of local businesses. Rooted in history yet focused on the future, they continue to serve the community with the same dedication and care that has defined them for decades.

Spring’s splash of colors serves not only as a celebration of renewal but also as a reminder of the enduring commitment of Skagit Valley businesses to adapt, grow, and thrive—just as they have for generations.
