Director Helps Raise Money for Charity

metroConnections, Inc. – an award-winning conference, event, stage production and transportation services firm – wishes to congratulate Tracy DeJong, director of Tour Guide Services and board member of the Minnesota Chapter of the National Concierge Association (NCA), for helping raise more than $2,300 for the Ronald McDonald House at the NCA annual gala and fundraising event in December.

“It was a joy to represent metro on this board,” DeJong said of the experience. In addition to her roles at metroConnections and the Minnesota NCA board, DeJong is very involved in the Twin Cities community, serving as a spokesperson for various business gatherings and site selection presentations, providing   recruiting tours for numerous local corporations that are hiring new employees, and promoting the cities’ histories and attractions to tourists and residents alike.

A member of the metro team for more than 20 years, DeJong’s passion for volunteering and assisting others has not gone unnoticed; company owners recently presented her with their Service Excellence Award.
