The La Porte Civic Auditorium is pleased to introduce Gregory Pietsch as our Civic & Events Director. The central Indiana native brings experience from the baseball diamond, from playing college ball to interning with a minor league team, as well as a background in event planning and hospitality.
Upon graduation in 2021 from Indiana University South Bend with a double major in Marketing and Advertising, Gregory began his career in finance before taking an internship with the Kalamazoo Growlers and Battle Creek Battle Jacks in the Northwoods League. That experience opened up an opportunity as the Hospitality Manager for The Salvation Army Kroc Center in South Bend.
“The Kroc Center taught me a lot about building relationships with customers and vendors alike,” Gregory said. “I am excited about this new opportunity at the Civic Auditorium. I appreciate being welcomed into La Porte by everyone I have met so far, and I look forward to serving you all as the new Civic & Events Director.”
Please join us in extending a warm welcome to Gregory! He can be contacted at the Civic Auditorium by phone at 219-362-2325 or by e-mail at gpietsch@cityoflaportein.gov.
