A familiar face will be leading the way for Door County YMCA in 2021. Heidi Erickson, who served as the Northern Door executive in Fish Creek from 2016 to 2019, was appointed as the fifth CEO in the 34-year history of the Door County YMCA. Board of Director's chair Mike Felhofer says Erickson brings many qualities that the organization was looking for in the leadership position.
Erickson will assume her new position next Monday and replace Tom Beerntsen, who had announced his retirement in November. Most recently serving as Branch Executive of the Green Bay Association's East Side Y branch, Erickson has an extensive background in programming and has worked with the Appleton Park and Recreation Department and the Eau Claire YMCA.
