Kristen Porath was unanimously voted in as the new Full-Time Ambulance Director by the Windom City Council. Porath has worked with the Cottonwood County Sheriff’s Office for the past 18 ½ years and stated that it was a very hard decision to leave her current job because the sheriff has been really good to her, but it was an opportunity she had to try for. Porath went on to say that she enjoys being an EMT and it is a challenge that she looks forward to. Porath will be the first full-time ambulance director. She will be replacing Tim Hacker who has held this part-time position for many years.
