One year ago, the City of Lennox welcomed a new Administrative and Media Assistant. What we didn't know at the time was just how much energy, creativity, and positivity Jess Severson would bring to the role.
In the past year, Jess has become one of the friendly faces behind City Hall, helping residents find answers, keeping projects organized, and ensuring that important information reaches our community. Whether she's answering questions, coordinating behind the scenes, creating social media content, or helping keep the daily operations of the city running smoothly, Jess does it all with professionalism and a smile.
She's helped tell the story of Lennox—celebrating our successes, sharing important updates, and highlighting the people and events that make our community special. Her work often happens behind the scenes, but its impact is seen throughout the city every day.
Like all great city employees, Jess has learned that local government requires flexibility, patience, and occasionally answering questions nobody could have possibly prepared for. Through it all, she has met every challenge with enthusiasm and grace.
So today, we celebrate Jess and her first anniversary with the City of Lennox. Thank you for your dedication, your hard work, and your commitment to serving our residents. Lennox is fortunate to have you on our team, and we look forward to many more years of success together.
Happy First Work Anniversary, Jess!
