Downtown Lawrence Inc. hires new executive director

A Lawrence resident with experience as a fundraiser for nonprofit agencies has been named the new executive director of Downtown Lawrence Inc.

Sally Zogry has been selected by the Downtown Lawrence Inc. board to replace retiring director Cathy Hamilton.
Zogry currently is the development officer for the Kansas Historical Foundation in Topeka and formerly worked as the development director for Lawrence-based Health Care Access.

Zogry will start work July 1. Hamilton has agreed to stay on the job through July 19, which will allow Zogry to receive some on-the-job training during the busy time period of Downtown Lawrence’s annual sidewalk sale, which is set for July 18.
