Submitted photo With epic plans of fundraising for a new facility, the Wadena County Humane Society (WCHS) board welcomed new board member Kelly Brooks Paradise to the team recently. Paradise has a background in international advertising campaigns, is a founding member of the Herb Brooks Foundation and is the daughter of the same head coach of the gold medal-winning U.S. Olympic hockey team. While her marketing background will no doubt be a boon for the local group, her love for saving dogs brings her in alignment with this organization that has been increasingly adopting out dogs and cats from across the country back out to much of the Midwest.
