Today we’re excited to spotlight John Romero, Shop Foreman here at Lakeshore. Step into his shop and one of the first things you’ll notice is a quote from Citizenship in a Republic—better known as “The Man in the Arena.” In it, Theodore Roosevelt reminds us that true credit belongs to those who take action, embrace risk, and strive for something meaningful. That mindset shows up in everything John does. He takes pride in building exhibits with efficiency and precision, all while creating a positive, fun atmosphere for his crew and the entire Lakeshore team. We’re lucky to have his talent, experience, and incredible attitude leading the way!
