STAFF HIGHLIGHT!

Hello! Jennifer Nixon here and I would like to thank you for reading our Meadowbrook Park Newsletter! We offer so many amazing programs and I appreciate everyone who participates in them. I am a 2004 graduate from Emporia State University, but have been in Recreation my whole life. My first job was a score keeper at 14 and have never looked back. I have worked in a few recreational organizations and loved everyone of them. I enjoy running and working out, but most of my free time is spent at the basketball court, baseball field or track with my 14 year old son.

Recreation brings so many benefits to overall health and nothing brings me more joy than the smile on a person’s face after visiting us or the park. I hope you decide to join us in the future!
