Quote from Lisa’s supervisor:
“Lisa came to us from another park district and brought with her a wealth of knowledge.  From the very first day, I knew that we had found a gem. The care she takes with each individual customer is second to none.  She tries to get to know and remember each family she has the pleasure of serving in the community. We rely on her for many tasks in the front office, the main one being, training new employees.  The incredible patience she shows is truly a gift.  If you’ve ever had the pleasure of working with her, you have experienced it yourself.  I feel very lucky to work alongside her daily.” – Staci Fletter, Registration Supervisor
