Krohn now serving on park district

Nate Krohn was appointed to a vacant commissioner seat with the Coulee Area Park and Recreation District at their Sept. 28 meeting. 

Krohn joins fellow commissioners Brian Warnecke, who also serves as president of the group, Kevin Portch, Carla Marconi, and Eric Wiitanen.

A natural fit for the group, Krohn was born and raised in the Coulee area then went to Washington State University to become a landscape architect and in that capacity served the National Park Service for 12 years as a project manager in Boise, Idaho, then moved back to the Coulee in 2015 and currently has a private manager position with the NPS, he said.

Krohn served as president of Lake Roosevelt Diamond Sports for about three years, he said, and has coached, umpired, and been involved in sports all his life.

He has a senior and a sophomore who attend Lake Roosevelt Jr./Sr. High School, and his wife, Misty, teaches kindergarten Lake Roosevelt Elementary.
