 A former park ranger for the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation is now taking on a new role. Last week, Gary Rosman was named the executive director for the Beltrami County Historic History Society. As executive director, Rosman is in charge of helping tend to the collection with manuscripts, photographs or archives. His new position falls under the category of education and he says it's important to have an appreciation for where you come from because it helps you know where you are going. It's really important, vital even to learn the story that the past is trying to teach us, to not forget where we've come from and to tell a holistic tale to incorporate all aspects of Beltrami's past.
