Washington County Fair Park Announces New Chief Executive Officer

 

West Bend: Washington County’s Agriculture and Industrial Society (AIS), which operates the Washington County Fair Park and Conference Center, appointed Stacy Holland (formerly Indermuehle) as the new Chief Executive Officer. The announcement follows an unveiling of the organization’s new mission and strategic plan last September. Holland will attend the Society’s annual meeting in December and officially assume the role on January 14, 2024.

“Our Board agreed that Stacy has the skills and abilities to execute our vision for the County’s facilities: elevating the County Fair, expanding agriculture and industry and connecting the community,” said AIS President Phil Dahlberg. “Her extensive communication and leadership skills will be a welcome addition to our team at Washington County Fair Park.”

Holland has a strong background in strategic growth initiatives, acquisitions, cost management and continuous improvement and is a proven business leader with an emphasis on sales expansion and operational efficiency. She has held leadership positions with Deloitte, Rockwell Automation, and Waukesha Bearings, and most recently served in CFO positions for several emerging pharmaceutical research companies through her own business. As a finance executive with global management experience, Holland is well positioned to execute the strategic goals set forth by the AIS Board. Holland grew up in the nearby Pike Lake area, later raising her children in Germantown, and her roots in the community extend back to her grandparents farm in the Town of Hartford until their retirement.

Incoming CEO Stacy Holland expressed her appreciation to the AIS Board upon selection, saying, “I enthusiastically look forward to advancing AIS’s strategic vision by increasing use of the Fair Park in ways that impactfully serve Washington County’s residents, agricultural interests, and businesses.” AIS’s outgoing Executive Director, Kellie Boone, submitted her resignation effective December 1, 2023. “I extend my thanks to Kellie Boone for her service, and we wish her success in her future endeavors,” added Dahlberg.
