NORTHERN TODAY 31 SPECIAL I SSUE | Summer 2021 REVITAL IZATION OF CAMPUS | A SALUTE TO OUR DONORS Kessler’s grocery store gives gift to NSU Regional Sports Complex, Athletic Fields Kessler’s grocery store knows how important Northern State University is to the community – that’s why the longtime local business decided to give a gift to the Educational Impact Campaign. THE KESSLER’S GIFT will support the NSU Regional Sports Complex and Athletic and Recreation Fields project, said Reed Kessler. “Northern State University is vital to the continued growth and development of our community,” Kessler said. “When Northern does well – it creates a ripple effect to the rest of us.” Longtime Employee Started as NSU Student One great example: TimWilliam, who started working at Kessler’s as a bagger while a student at NSU. He was quickly promoted into a supervisor position on the floor. “He completed an internship in the business office and after graduation, he was hired in our accounting department,” Kessler said. “Twenty-one years later Tim is still employed with Kessler’s and we couldn’t be happier!” Kessler said Northern brings back years of memories from his own childhood up to today. “Fall football games at Swisher, basketball games at Wachs and the Gypsy Day Parade are just a few of my favorite memories,” he said. “It’s even more fun watching my own children light up with excitement when we attend activities today. NSU has established great traditions over the years and I’m excited to pass them down to my family.” Northern State University Brings New Customers, Larger Employee Pool “NSU brings us new customers year after year and also brings us a larger more qualified employee pool,” he said. “We are lucky to have such a strong education system in our backyard.” Kessler’s Champions room, Barnett Center
