March is National Women’s History Month. 

The 2017 theme honors women who have successfully challenged the traditional role of women in the workplace. Donna Evans, 51, Iola, is a local woman who has not only challenged the role of women in the paid labor force but also challenged herself to go outside her comfort level.

Evans is employed at the Allen County Landfill, LaHarpe. She works five to six days a week from 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., but she will not be found in the office. 

“I am an equipment operator,” she said. “I run the compactor, the loader, trackhoe, dozer and dump truck.”
