VOLUNTEER OF THE MONTH Kristen is the President of the Plaza District Association Board of Directors. “The smaller, unique districts in Oklahoma City are what set us apart from other cities. The Plaza District is a great example of this and how much any district can improve and continue to thrive when people care about it. The Plaza District is filled with great, passionate people and brings so much character and life to the City and I enjoy working with them.” Thanks for all you do, Kristen!
