MSU BILLINGS FOUNDATION & ALUMNI NEWS—The MSU Billings Foundation & Alumni today announced Kelly Schrock has been named the new Director of Special Events. Schrock will be responsible for planning and implementing the Foundation’s signature fundraiser, the MSU Billings Wine & Food Festival, and other special events.

“We are thrilled to welcome Kelly to our team,” said President & CEO Krista Montague. “We were proud to have such an outstanding pool of candidates; however, Kelly really stood out.  We are confident she has the necessary experience and skills to lead our Wine & Food Festival.”

Schrock previously served as Development Coordinator at RiverStone Health Foundation for eight years. She managed annual fundraising campaigns, three major special events, and external communications.
