OUR STAFF AND BOARD

STAFF

KATIE KOGLMAN

Chief Executive officer

2018

Challenge accepted! Katie hits issues head on with creative solutions. Once voted, "most likely to prove us all wrong", she does not back down. If Katie is not drafting strategies or asking people for donations, she can be found dancing around the fire pit at the campground or shredding the karaoke stage ~badly~ somewhere.

LISA NYHART

DIRECTOR OF FINANCE AND OPERATIONS

1998

Lisa takes a tough, no nonsense approach to her daily duties and is highly invested in the mission of the organization. Once an all-star softball player for the Knights, Lisa still catches everything pitched her way. When she's not crunching numbers or negotiating deals, she can be found on the white beaches of Sanibel with the other mermaids.

DEBBIE STUTZ

Administrative Assistant

2022

Our part-time super star will knock your socks off with her talents and experience. She retired once, but had a yearning to give back to her community. Debbie raised three girls, and now is grandma to three little ones. When she is not working, she and her husband Joe like to explore local eateries and adventure spots with friends!

KAYLEY COX

Manager

Community Relations

2021

Kayley lights up any room with her beautiful smile and infectious laughter. Once the prom queen, she now majestically maneuvers the daily needs of the office. When she is not studying HR laws or counting cash, she can be found loving on her family, binge watching shows, and auditioning for the next great bake-off!

MEGAN WILSON

MARKETING AND DEVELOPMENT COORDINATOR

2022

Megan is a natural at making friends and making others smile. She’s worked in banking, insurance and home décor, but now loves making a difference in the lives of people in our community.

She’s a Holmes County native who loves to cook, mushroom hunt and attend her children’s activities.
