Parks and recreation professionals have a variety of jobs, and the Community Relations division perfectly exemplifies how this small but mighty team wears multiple hats.
You can’t run an award-winning community recreational facility without a killer marketing strategy and passionate individuals ready to tell your story. The Community Relations division manages the department’s social media accounts, website, newsletter, and all digital marketing services for The Marq Southlake, the Bob Jones Nature Center and Preserve, and our various recreational programs and parks system.
Their digital marketing strategy is responsible for our Champions Club's continued membership growth and the positive attention our department receives. Whether they're revamping the Experience Southlake website, out taking pictures, or getting content for Instagram, this team is all about capturing life-long memories and celebrating the world-class services our department provides.
While departmental marketing is a full-time job, this team goes above and beyond traditional marketing services for the Community Services department. This division is also responsible for managing small community events in our park and working with our community services agreement partners to provide essential services to our residents. When community partners want to host a 5K run or bring neighbors together at a park, this team helps them ensure their event is successful!
In true communicator fashion, the individuals behind this team prefer to stay behind the camera. However, actively involved Southlake residents know that they are essential to the success of the Community Services Department.
Happy Park and Recreation Month to the Community Relations Division. Your work exemplifies where community grows!
You couldn't have a beautiful City like Southlake without the breathtaking parks within our green and vibrant city.
Our Parks Crews rise early in the morning to take on the task of keeping our parks in pristine condition. As the sun rises, our park crews are already on site, ready to beat the summer heat. Collectively our teams are responsible for city-wide beautification, contract management, field maintenance, facility utilization agreements, event support, and working with our Athletic Associations.
These oases of greenery provide us with a much-needed respite from our daily lives and contribute to our physical and mental well-being. Behind the scenes, an often-overlooked group of individuals works tirelessly to ensure our parks are meticulously maintained, safe, and inviting for everyone to enjoy.
Our parks crew, through their unwavering dedication and tireless efforts, enhance the quality of life in our communities. They transform ordinary green spaces into extraordinary sanctuaries, creating a haven for all to enjoy. It is time we recognize and celebrate these unsung heroes, expressing our heartfelt gratitude for their hard work, commitment, and invaluable contributions.
In Celebration of Parks and Recreation Month, we want to highlight these hard workers in many ways. On Instagram and Facebook @experiencesouthlake, you can see a beautiful collage of all the Southlake parks. You can also find an exclusive interview with Terry Lee, one of our world-class Parks Supervisors, to learn all the behind-the-scenes details of all the work that goes into our parks.
Happy Park and Recreation Month to those who keep our public parks green, clean, and safe!
