(KWNO)- On Thursday of last week, the Steamboat Days Harbormasters and Committee members ‘Capped’ Jim Vrchota as the 2023 Harbormaster.

Jim has an extensive list of organizations that he has or is apart of currently. Some include, St. Anne of Winona, Junior Achievement, WAPS Task Force, Winona ORC, and the Winona WorkForce Development Center/CareerForce. He’s served economic development for Winona County, City of Goodview, Winona Chamber, Visit Winona, and the Minnesota Business Finance Corp. There is much more that Jim is involved with as well.
