May Volunteer Spotlight 2023

Each month, our volunteer committee decides on volunteers to spotlight. For May 2023, the volunteer committee selected Kay Marushak! These volunteers give their time consistently throughout the year, in addition to lots of hours put in at Christkindlmarkt. We are grateful to them for their time and efforts and are so happy to feature them in this month’s spotlight!
