Ben Messer, Transportation Director at the Winterset Community School District. 

With Sixteen (16) years of experience in transportation management, including Ten (10) years in student transportation.  I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise. During my time in the Marine Corps, I served in the Marine One helicopter squadron, ensuring the safe transportation of President Clinton and Bush worldwide. Currently, as a transportation director, I am dedicated to ensuring the safety of our students and staff every day.  I am also a current booster club board member for the Winterset CSD. I would like to join the IPTA Board as I feel I would be able to help other transportation directors promote student safety and training for school bus drivers throughout the State of Iowa.
