I’m glad to see the Pavilion is finally getting a development person back on staff;

Kerri DeGraff will join the Washington Pavilion as the chief development officer Feb. 12. DeGraff most recently served as the development director for Feeding South Dakota for six years. Before that, she worked for five years with the Sioux Empire United Way as the community impact director.

I think Kerri has done a good job at FSD, I just find it interesting she is taking her talents to a different kind of non-profit model. Of course, development officers are in charge of raising private donations and other gifts. Obviously she is probably going to tap into her current list of contacts for these donations and you wonder what kind of toes may not like being stepped on. Raising money for the arts and raising money to feed the less fortunate are two different beasts. I wish her luck!
