- My wife, Jane our 3 young children and I moved to Belmond in 1981. We made a job change from FDIC bank examiner to loan officer at First State Bank.
Belmond has been very good to our family. Our children received a top notch education benefiting greatly growing up in a caring and nurturing community. Jane and I are now grandparents and proud to call Belmond our hometown. We will continue to promote Belmond in every way so that future generations can enjoy the same opportunities our family experienced.

Dan Lovgren
- My wife and I relocated to Belmond from Nebraska in April 1988 with plans to stay in Belmond 3-5 years, twenty years later we can't imagine ever leaving. The Belmond community provided an atmosphere that supported and promoted our family values as we have raised our three children. Over the years I have been a supporter of town initiatives but always from the sidelines. When asked to join the BIDCO board in 2006 I felt compelled to get into the game and help continue the Belmond legacy.

Eric Simonson
- My wife, daughter and I moved to Belmond from the Twin Cities in 2003, when I took positions with the Wright County Attorney's Office and the Houser & Berkland law firm. Having grown up in nearby Fort Dodge, it was especially nice to return to Iowa with my family. Five years and two more children later, we know we made the right choice. The people we have met in Belmond have made us feel like this is home and we are excited to be able to be a part of a community with small town values and growing aspirations. I have been a member of the BIDCO board since 2004. I hope to continue with the board in supporting Belmond businesses and keeping this a great place to work and live.

Nancy Gabrielson
- I am excited to have the opportunity to again become an active part of the Belmond Community. I am a firm believer in giving back to your community and serving as a BIDCO board member will help me do just that. Mick and I both grew up in the Belmond Community. I was a farm girl and Mick a Goodell native. We raised 3 daughters here and 2 of our son-in-laws also graduated from Belmond. All were given the education and ethical values needed to be fully successful adults for this we are truly grateful. It is a privilege to return to the Belmond health care community through the Belmond Medical Center. I look forward to promoting Belmond economic growth by serving as a BIDCO board member.
