Not many employees enthusiastically say they love their job.
Beth Lenaway, the new director of the Kane Senior Center, is an exception.
“I just love what I’m doing,” Lenaway said with a tone of vim and vigor. “It’s a very rewarding job.”
Lenaway has replaced Amanda Blankenship at the director of the Kane Senior Center on Fraley Street in Uptown Kane. Blankenship reportedly has returned to college to pursue a degree in nursing.
