Cashmere District has new foreman, assistant foreman
Posted On: July 07, 2025
Hey Cashmere District! You have a new foreman and assistant foreman leading efforts there to take care of your county roads.
Craig Wisemore, left, is the new foreman of the Cashmere District. Wisemore, formerly the assistant foreman for the past five years, has 20 years of service at Chelan County. It was his goal, when he started with us, to become a foreman one day and serve in a leadership role.
Travis Willms is the new assistant foreman. The past 10 years, he’s been serving in the Wenatchee District. Willms is looking forward to supporting his new foreman and crew and getting to know a new road district.
Congrats to both men and thank you for stepping up into leadership roles for your community! Read more about your road maintenance department on our website.
