GOLDEN ECHO

From the LCCOA Executive Director

By Susie Welch

A BIG thanks to all of you who came out to Business after Business last month, along with all the help from LOTS in co-sponsoring this event. We love every chance we can to showcase one of Dixon’s assets – the Post House. I’m pleased to announce that Laura Hoyle is the new Events Manager at LCCOA. Laura has over 16 years’ experience in the industry and will be responsible for our biggest fund raiser – the Post House. She is a joy to work with and fits right in with the great staff at LCCOA. If you haven’t been to the Post House recently, we will be featuring Jim Duis of Dixon Park District Nature Center on March 19 at 2 p.m. at the Post House, when he will give his owl presentation. People have raved about this presentation, so you will want to mark your calendar to come.
