Last Wednesday’s Board Meeting was a special one!
We honored and celebrated three board members—Mike Smith 18 years of service, Carrie Sharma 8 years of service, and Laura Stawicki 8 years of service —on their retirement. Executive Director, Andy Biesterfield, gave a speech to recognize and express our gratitude for their years of service and their accomplishments. The speech ended with a gift of appreciation for the many ways they have enriched the Crete Park District over the years.
We also recognized our LWSRA ambassador, Emme, for helping lead the LWSRA Lady Hawks to 1st place at the Illinois State Special Olympics Basketball Championship! Our Marketing Coordinator, Jordan Desiderio, gave a speech to honor and recognize Emme for her hard work and accomplishment. Before the meeting, Emme shared that “it felt amazing and great to win,” and that she’s “enjoyed meeting new friends, having great coaches, and being part of a team.” She was surprised with a mini customized basketball to honor her achievement.
Thank you to everyone that helped us celebrate and recognize last Wednesday, including families, friends, staff and representatives from both the Village and Township.
What a night at Crete Park District!
