Meet the 2024 Winter Daze Parade Grand Marshal, Lora Benrud!


Lora retired from WESTconsin Credit Union this year after 40 years of service. She began as a part-time teller and worked in several positions before moving to CEO in 2014. She has always been an advocate for giving back to the community, sitting on many boards and committees during her tenure, and always encouraging her team to be involved in volunteer work as well.

Thank you, Lora, for making such a lasting impact on the Menomonie community! We look forward to celebrating you at the parade on Thursday evening.
