7 years. ❤️

"Shelby Park Community Center has been so much more than a job. It has been a place where I created programs, built friendships, mentored kids, developed amazing community partnerships, and watched our community grow.

My greatest joy has been watching our kids grow and even having the opportunity to hire some of the kids who once participated in our programs. That full-circle feeling means everything to me.

As I begin a new chapter at Coleman Regional Community Center on September 28, I’m excited to introduce Ms. Hannah Martinez as Shelby’s new Program Coordinator.

If anyone was going to step into this role, I’m glad it’s Hannah. She’s intelligent, creative, an amazing communicator, approachable and she’s DOPE!

Please welcome Hannah, support her, and give her the same love and community support that you have given me throughout the years. ❤️

Thank you to every parent who trusted me with your children. Thank you to every child who gave me a reason to keep pushing forward. Thank you to every staff member, volunteer, and community partner who believed in the vision.

Seven years at Shelby has meant so much to me. I’m leaving with a full heart, countless memories, and an incredible amount of gratitude.

While my role and location are changing, the impact Shelby has had on me will never change.

I will always be proud to say:

❤️"

Huge THANK YOU to Friends of Shelby Park for blessing Shelby Park Community Center with a brand-new deep freezer! 🙌🏾❄️

Because let’s be honest… popsicles don’t store themselves, and turkeys definitely don’t belong in the regular fridge! 😂🍦🦃

We are officially ready to freeze, store, and serve! 😎

Thank you, Friends of Shelby, for always finding ways to support our center and our community. We appreciate you more than you know! 💙
