(KNZA)--A new Hiawatha Chamber and Visitors Bureau administrator has been hired.
HCVB Board President Kate Miller announced, in a posting on the organization's Facebook page, that Sarah Kleopfer has been hired for the position.
Kleopfer recently retired after thirty-two years as the middle school and high school vocal music teacher for Hiawatha USD 415.
She holds a bachelor’s degree in music education from Northwest Missouri State University and a master’s degree in education from Baker University.
Miller said Kleopfer has been very active in the Hiawatha community through HAATS productions and benefit concerts. She is also a member of the Hiawatha Music Club.
Kleopfer and her husband, Doug, have two daughters.
Miller said Linda Duesing, who has been serving as interim administrator since October, will remain with the organization. She said Duesing will be filling in when needed and will be taking on the role of HCVB ambassador to help with specific events.
Also Miller said Randee Wisdom has been hired as a summer intern. She said she started earlier this month and is already hard at work.
