To be eligible, a candidate must have served a minimum of twenty (20) years in the work of Boys & Girls Clubs and been a member of the national Professional Association for the past five (5) consecutive years. 

The Boys & Girls Club of Fond du Lac is proud to announce that this year, TPA has recognized Dan Hebel and Karissa Schneider for each of their twenty (20) years of distinguished service to youth in the Fond du Lac community.

Hebel has held several titles within the organization, growing his level of knowledge and experience along the way, ultimately resulting in his hire as the CEO in 2013. Throughout the years, Hebel has been recognized several times at the statewide, regional and national level for his work. The Professional Association of Boys & Girls Clubs named him Midwest Professional of the Year in 2012 and Executive of the Year in 2019. Hebel was also named CEO of the Year for Wisconsin Clubs in 2018, and was inducted into the BGCWI Hall of Fame in 2023.

Schneider earned the role through her exemplary work over the years. Her focus is primarily on HR functions, but she also carries out executive level duties that support the needs of the organization. Her organizational and leadership skills have been essential to the success of the organization.
