The next Director will be a servant leader with high emotional intelligence who inspires trust, builds strong teams, and confidently makes decisions while maintaining focus on improving community quality of life through parks and recreation services.

Required qualifications include:

A Bachelor’s degree from an accredited college or university in Sports Management, Recreation Administration, Leisure Services, Business Administration, Public Administration, or a related field.

At least seven (7) years of increasingly responsible professional experience in parks and recreation program administration, with at least three (3) years in a managerial capacity.
