Lars Christensen has been appointed to the Town & Country Credit Union Board of Directors. Lars fills the Kenmare seat on the Board of Directors.
Lars is a native of Kenmare and a current farmer in the Kenmare area. He holds a bachelor's degree in history from North Dakota State University. After college, he moved to Colorado for a few years before returning to his home state.
Lars ran a small construction company before switching to farming full-time in 2000. He has many years of board experience, including serving 20 years on the Kenmare School Board and 12 years on the Farmer's Union Lumber Board.
He has two children, Annika and Andrew. Lars is a big believer in giving back to his community through board service and is looking forward to leveraging the governance experience he's gained over the years to give back in a new way as a member of the Town & Country Board of Directors.
Lar's appointment fills a mid-term vacancy on the Board of Directors. As such, he will fill this role until the Annual Meeting in March 2025, at which point a director will be elected to fill the Kenmare seat for a full 3-year term.
