Introducing Lindsey Kromm, a Rockford native and Go Rockford's Accounting Assistant. She has been working for the bureau for the past 5 years! She's such a dedicated staff member who works hard and loves to play hard too. When she's not working with numbers she's venturing outside and discovering unique attractions here in our community. She's a fun-loving, adventure seeker and we are so grateful to have her back in the Rockford region living, working and playing here!
Q. Why do you enjoy living in the Rockford region and working for the RACVB?
A. As a “boom-a-ranger” and living in the Chicago suburbs for 6 years, I’ve come to love my hometown and am proud to call Rockford home. I especially love the people and small town feel, along with the conveniences and opportunities of a big city. I love working for the RACVB because I can share how great this town is with everyone! We do a great job outweighing the bad with TONS of good Rockford offers.
Q. What is your favorite thing to do/place to explore when you’re not working?
A. I love how summer offers so many options for outdoor dining. We love to try new outdoor venues and foods in the Rockford region. We especially like Food Truck Tuesday at Nicholas Conservatory & Gardens, where every week we can try something different. The trolley ride is a plus!
Q. Where is one of Rockford’s hidden gems, according to you?
A. West Rock Wake Park- my kids could spend the entire summer riding the cable at Levings Lake. They offer such a unique opportunity for all ages and skill levels. The staff is top-notch and so fun to be around. The scenery is beautiful, and we always seem to run into someone we know out there!
Q. How do you and your family enjoy spending time outdoors in the region?
A. My family always tries to make it to at least one Rockford Rivets game each summer, and preferably one with fireworks following the game. The team is always fun to watch and the fireworks are some of the best in the area, in my opinion.
Q. What are you most looking forward to this summer in the Rockford region?
A. I just look forward to seeing our community come together and gather to enjoy the great weather of summer, whether it’s at a festival or at one of our awesome parks. It’s fun to see everyone out and about enjoying each other’s company.
