This month’s Lake Andes business spotlight is North Point Recreation Area. North Point Recreation Area is run by District Supervisor, Kris Monroe. Kris has been the District Supervisor for three years. Monroe became interested in this career because as a child she spent a lot of time camping, hunting, fishing and hiking. She loved being outside. When it came time to a pick a career, Kris knew that she wanted to do something that helped the next generation build some of the same memories that she had growing up. When asked what she enjoys the most about working in the Pickstown/Lake Andes area, Kris said the people. There are always smiling faces. Living in such a beautiful area is definitely a perk of the job as well. The sunsets are the best! As the District Supervisor, Kris really enjoys the people that she works with and the visitors that she gets to meet and interact with. She loves being able to see the kids laughing and playing in the park with their families.
