Darlene Kacelek – Ambassador Spotlight

Darlene, a longtime Post Falls resident, moved here in 1988. She graduated from North Idaho College and completed her education at Lewis Clark State College and Gonzaga University. Darlene became the Marketing Manager for The Metropolitan Performing Arts Center in Spokane for 8 years, became a realtor in 2004, and began working with Kirbi Swanson at Treaty Rock Realty in 2016.

Darlene and her realtor daughter, Julia Boord, want to give back to their community, so they began hosting successful real estate classes, “How to Buy a Home With 100% Financing,” at the Workforce Training Center in Post Falls. Julia is also a designated Senior Real Estate Specialist.

Darlene has been a member and Ambassador for the Post Falls Chamber since 2017. She volunteers many hours at Chamber events and meets new people in our community, always with a smile.

She volunteers to support the Chamber’s many events, along with helping at The Fox Theater in Spokane.

She enjoys her large family, including her husband, son, two daughters, a granddaughter, and a cat and dog. Darlene enjoys many activities that the Northwest offers, including tap dancing, and would like to finish a Spartan race in Montana with her kids this spring!
