Leavenworth District has new foreman, assistant foreman

Posted On: October 23, 2025

2025 Road-eo winners!

Hey Leavenworth, Plain and Lake Wenatchee! You have a new leadership team heading up the Leavenworth District!

And they should be pretty familiar faces. With the retirement of former foreman Dan Mayfield, Fred Berger was recently promoted to the foreman’s position. Fred is starting his 19th year with the district, nine years of which he served as assistant foreman.

Another veteran, Stacey Carson, was promoted to the assistant foreman’s position. Stacey has been working in the Leavenworth District for nine years.

The pair brings solid experience and leadership to the district, not to mention a dedication to public service. When you talk to them, they are very proud of their crew and the work they do. Congrats to Fred and Stacey!
