The Crookston Chamber of Commerce Ambassadors were out in the community recently to congratulate and recognize two very integral people/organizations in Crookston.
The first stop was to visit Elizabeth (Libby) Boucher, United Way Executive Director. In Libby’s own words, “Born in St. Paul, moved to Crookston in 1989 to work as an announcer at KROX. I was a manager at Arby’s, ran the offsale at IC Mugg’s, ran Casey’s for over three years and now at the United Way. My family has all worked for non-profits, my mom and all three of my sisters so it’s kind of in the blood!” Congratulations Libby, we know you’ll do great things for the United Way and your impact will be extraordinary.
The second stop was to visit Care & Share Executive Director, Brian Halos. Brian has been in this position since January of 2020, and has had an incredible influence on both residents and staff. One of Brian’s biggest highlights is that he went through extreme measures and precautions to prevent COVID from spreading at the Care & Share, and reported a number of only two cases during the pandemic. Congratulations Brian, you are truly a champion and are excelling in the Executive Director Position.
