History
White's Marine Center has evolved and grown from humble beginnings at the Glendo Marina in 1970 when Bill and Charlotte White purchased it. Bill and Charlotte moved their family from the suburbs of Chicago to the little town of Glendo, population 300 people.
The whole family was involved in operating the marina. Sons Craig and Thad worked on the gas dock, rented boats, and hauled trash to the dump. Daughter Kyra started out helping in the café. All three grew up in the business.
In 1987, the family opened a dealership in Casper, Wyoming 80 miles north of Glendo. Craig White has been the general manager since it was opened. A year later, another dealership was opened in Rock Springs, Wyoming in the western part of the state and Thad White was the general manager of that dealership.
In 1995, Bill and Charlotte sold the Glendo Marina and operations were consolidated to the one Casper dealership. Craig and Thad bought out their parents and together operate the Casper location. Bill and Charlotte have retired but still help out in the busy summer months.
Today, White's Marine Center is Wyoming's premier boat dealership with 37 years of experience and knowledge. Their people are experts and can help boating enthusiasts with all of their boating needs. |
