Welcome, Marjean!

Marjean has her work cut out for her in improving FMR's photo database.

Helping injured wildlife, preserving 200 acres of wilderness in northwest Wisconsin - longtime FMR member Marjean Hoeft already has an impressive list of volunteer experiences and conservation accomplishments, but she's ready to add yet another. An active Mississippi River Gorge Stewards and Mississippi River Challenge volunteer since 2005, Marjean recently decided to donate her time and talents inside the FMR office as well. For the next two months, she'll be taking on the FMR photo database, updating it with thousands of river, wildlife, volunteer and event images, and developing a manageable access system. It's a daunting task, but with over two decades of project management under her belt, including building and streamlining complex databases and office systems, we know she's up to the challenge.

Thank you, Marjean, and welcome to the FMR team!
