STAFF HIGHLIGHT!
Hi, there! My name is Alice and I work at the front desk at Meadowbrook Park Clubhouse. Stop by my desk if you would like to reserve a park shelter, sign up for any JCPRD program, or get more information on our 50 Plus Travel program. I am new to the world of Recreation but not public service. My work experience prior to my current role was all with public libraries in the Kansas City area. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, listening to podcasts, going to the movies, and doing jigsaw puzzles. I also love to go see theater and live music. Now that the weather is nicer it’s my goal to go explore other parks.
Come out and join us at the beautiful Meadowbrook Park!
