From
LDN archives, April of 2017, left to
right: Cris Wibben, Cindy Fleshman, Gail
Apel-Sasse and Morgan Gleason. The Logan
County Tourism Bureau had announced that
Wibben had been hired as the Bureau
Director and Gleason as the Assistant.
This week, Wibben announced she would be
leaving the bureau. The Tourism Board
discussed how to proceed in executive
session, then came out of executive
session to consider a motion to promote
Gleason to the Tourism Director
position. The motion was approved by
unanimous vote. Gleason will take the
position immediately upon Wibben's
departure. The bureau will be seeking
applicants for a new staff member in the
near future.
