Introducing Ben Jasmer: It is wonderful to be joining the Pine City team! I am a MN transplant from Nebraska who met my wife in the BWCA while working there as a canoe guide. We live in North Branch with our 4 kids and 2 golden retrievers, while I dabble in gardening, watching British comedy panel shows, (not quite) finishing numerous home renovations and (not quite) starting my Masters thesis. This will be my sixth year teaching Visual Arts to middle and high school students.

Welcome Mr. Jasmer
