Jaymie Pedigo has been named as the new executive director of the Heritage Guild of Collin County, which oversees the Chestnut Square Historical Village.
Pedigo has been acting as interim executive director since January when previous director Cindy Johnson left the organization. She is a McKinney resident and has an extensive history of work in nonprofit organizations.
"The Board of Directors has been impressed with the level of leadership that Jaymie has brought to the organization in the short time that she has worked with our staff and community," said Board Chairperson Wayne Hill in a press release. "We have seen the type of enthusiasm, creativity, and positive interaction that we were seeking when we asked Jaymie to help us during this period of transition. She has already had a huge positive impact, bringing new ideas and methods to the activities, which she has managed. We feel fortunate to have the opportunity to bring her on board on a permanent basis at this time."
