Marilyn French Shaw, after retiring, moved to our cozy town full-time with her husband in 2021. Her husband has been coming to Harrison for over 35 years and they bought a house here in 2011. For fun, she enjoys boating, traveling, snowmobiling and working out.

Marilyn grew up in Foxborough, Massachusetts (go Patriots!), went to Boston College Law School and was a corporate lawyer in Boston for over 30 years. She has 2 adult step-children who also live in Harrison and 4 senior (but spunky) rescue dogs.

Besides Christmas, Marilyn’s passion is animals. She is a former board member of Sweet Paws Rescue in Massachusetts and supports many animal rescue organizations. She is also involved with event planning for König Corp., a charity bringing car enthusiasts together to raise money for organizations dedicated to mental health and victims of abuse or trauma.

Tracey and her husband recently moved to the area after 30 years raising their family in Windham. They spend their winters here and their summers living aboard their boat cruising Casco Bay.

She joined Christmas in Harrison as the Marketing Coordinator in order to get more involved with her new community.

Tracey’s creativity coupled with her Marketing/Graphic Design background have led to an extensive array of entrepreneurial ventures including event planning, curating classes and workshops as a yoga/Yamuna® practitioner and most recently refreshing properties for use as vacation rentals. 

She is no stranger to boards having served as the Vice President and then President of the Windham/Sacopee Valley Hockey Board for five years helping to build a school hockey program where there wasn't one. As this program was initially self-funded, she helped lead the many fundraising efforts for the team. 

She's excited to be a part of such a fun and heartwarming tradition.
