Creating a program to show that every employee matters
By Annie Olson
No matter the size of a park agency, all of them struggle with resource needs. However, what some people often don’t recognize is that the most valuable resource of any organization is its employees.

This was the beginning of an effort to create a culture of recognition and appreciation throughout the agency.
