Bidding the 2023 Summer Interns Farewell
That’s a wrap on the 2023 Summer Internship Program!













Turtle Races are back in Perham, and the competition is already getting serious.
Some come for the races. Some come for the candy. And some just want their turtle and a handful of licorice.
We're proud to be part of this Perham tradition that brings our community together each summer. Be sure to head downtown every Wednesday this summer to enjoy the races, trolley rides, shopping, family activities, and all the fun!
A big shoutout to the Perham Area Chamber of Commerce for organizing another great season and keeping this beloved tradition rolling year after year.
See you downtown! 🐢🎉 #TurtleRaces #PerhamMN #KLNFamilyBrands #CommunityAndBeyond ... See MoreSee Less
At KLN, wellness is about more than what happens during the workday. It is about building connections and having fun together.
Last week, employees took part in our annual Brave Like Gabe walk as part of our "Let's Get Social" program. Each month, our Wellness Team organizes an event that brings team members together outside of the office and plant, creating opportunities to connect, recharge, and enjoy time with coworkers.
This walk is always a special one. Gabe's story continues to inspire so many throughout Perham and the surrounding communities, and we're grateful to be part of an event that means so much to our hometown. 💙

Every summer, our internship program brings fresh perspectives, new ideas, and future leaders into our business. Over the next few weeks, we're excited to introduce the talented students spending their summer learning, growing, and making an impact across KLN Family Brands.
First up is Quincy Anderson, our Corporate Communications & Employment Brand Marketing Intern. A Perham native and student at the University of St. Thomas studying Entrepreneurship, Quincy is spending the summer helping tell the stories behind our people, brands, and communities and handling communications.
Join us in welcoming Quincy to the team and follow along to learn a little bit more about all of our interns!

A big thank you to Elevate for bringing your groups to visit KLN this week!
It's always one of our favorite days of the year because we get the opportunity to show off what we do, introduce visitors to the incredible people behind our products, and let our employees shine. And let's be honest - if you live in Perham, you've probably seen our trucks and smelled production on more than one occasion. You deserve to see what's happening behind the walls, too!
Thanks for spending part of your week with us. We loved having you.

Tonight, our KLN Family Brands team is hitting the pavement together for the 4th Annual Brave Like Gabe 5K!
Founded in honor of Perham native Gabe Grunewald, the event celebrates her courageous battle with cancer and her mission to inspire others to live bravely in the face of adversity.
Gabe's impact continues to be felt far beyond the running community, and we're proud to support an event that carries on her legacy.
Events like this are one of the many ways our employees connect outside of work while supporting causes that make a difference in our communities. We’re proud to have a great group representing KLN and living out our Community & Beyond core belief.
Good luck to all of our team members participating tonight - we can’t wait to cheer you on!
