       Peyton Carlstrom

        UMC Fall intern

The Crookston Area Chamber and Visitor’s Bureau is pleased to introduce our fall intern Peyton Carlstrom. Here is what Peyton would like you to know about her.  I’m originally from Crookston, currently in my senior year pursuing a Communication degree. I’ve been blessed to stay at home and spend lots of time with my family who mean everything to me by choosing to attend college in Crookston. I chose to do my internship at the Chamber because I see the benefits of living in a small town. I thought the Chamber would be a good way to get myself out in the town and participate in events held here in Crookston. I’m looking forward to becoming more of a familiar face and establishing meaningful connections with the community of Crookston.
