Meet Our Executive Director Kristine Perales

Hello, my name is Kristine and  I am so excited to take on the role as your new Historic Downtown Prosser Director. I have been deeply involved in various community initiatives and volunteer efforts here in Prosser. My journey in community service includes serving as a cheer coach for both Prosser High School and Prosser Grid Kids, and taking on roles such as choreographer and music director for Miss Prosser. I’ve also been actively involved as the Creative District Co-chair, Little Miss Prosser parade and pageant coordinator, and have served on the HDP board as a member and secretary. Additionally, I contribute to the Economic Vitality Committee and am a proud member of the Prosser Community Band.

Looking ahead, I’m excited about the collaborative vision of Historic Downtown Prosser (HDP). Our goal is to strengthen and support our local businesses by revitalizing and preserving our historic buildings. We aim to create a thriving downtown that attracts tourists and encourages the community to shop, dine, and relax locally. I’m eager to work with various local organizations, including the Prosser Chamber of Commerce, the City of Prosser, Parks and Recreation, Prosser Leadership, Prosser Community Volunteers, the Farmers Market, Prosser Economic Development, Tour Prosser, and Rotary, among others.

Historic Downtown Prosser always welcomes new volunteers. There are countless ways to get involved, whether it’s joining a committee, helping with events like the Art Walk, or watering downtown flowers. If you’re interested in contributing to our vibrant community, please reach out to me at 509-786-2399 or via email at director@historicprosser.com. Let’s work together to make Prosser a place where businesses thrive and community spirit shines.
