Shannon's role in the Parks and Recreation department was one that suited her very well. Not only did she bring creativity, but her passion to contribute to the residents' and visitors' recreational experience was evident in the way she executed every detail with enthusiasm and heart. Her drive to put on superior events that exceeded everyone's expectations was very admirable! I highly recommend her as she was a true asset to the City of Homestead!
