The District of Muskoka has issued an announcement noting that Airport CEO Len O’Connor will retire effective May 23rd, 2025.

“Len took on leadership of the Muskoka Airport as its first CEO in 2019, and his tenure is marked by significant growth, strategic development, and a steadfast commitment to excellence,” states the release.

“Throughout his time with the Airport, Len’s leadership has been instrumental in fostering a dynamic environment that supports both operational excellence and future expansion,” remarked Muskoka Airport Board Chair Don MacKay. “Under his guidance, Muskoka Airport has experienced remarkable progress, positioning it well for continued growth and success.”

O’Connor said he has enjoyed leading the airport and collaborating closely with District and airport staff and Airport Board of Directors and stakeholders over the past six years.

“On behalf of the District of Muskoka, the Airport Board of Directors, staff, and the entire Muskoka Airport community, we extend our deepest gratitude to Len for his dedication, leadership, and vision over the past several years,” states Julie Stevens, District CAO, in the release. “We wish Len all the best in his retirement and look forward to building on the strong foundation he has helped establish.”
