Well... it's time to introduce the new Putnam House Coordinator, Lindsay Ostlie!

I am excited to see Lindsay bring her creativity, energy, and fresh programming ideas to life at the Putnam House. After 25 wonderful years, I, Alison Schumann, feel it's the perfect time to pass the torch and welcome a new chapter.

My love for historic homes began many years ago, but I especially fell in love with the Putnam House. What started as a friendship with former owners John and Julie Gardner while living next door eventually led to me becoming their realtor. That's when the Putnam House truly captured my heart—and it never let go. It remains a place that will always hold a special place in my life.

Over the years, I've had the privilege of working alongside so many talented and dedicated people. Together, we've brought events, culture, history, and the arts to our community through this beautiful home. The memories and friendships made along the way have been incredibly rewarding.

While I may be stepping away from the coordinator role, I won't be a stranger. In fact, I'm proud to be Lindsay's very first committee member! She is looking forward to building a great team and welcomes others who may be interested in getting involved.

Thank you all for your support over the years. It has meant so much to me. I look forward to seeing you at future events and watching the Putnam House continue to thrive for years to come.

See you at the next event!

A fun and rewarding position!
