Meet our new Parks & Rec Coordinator!

Thanks to a Community Center Grant from the MI Dept. of Labor & Economic Opportunity, we were able to hire our new Parks and Recreation Coordinator, Morgan Most! Morgan will be developing our new Recreation Department, which will provide new opportunities for outdoor recreational activities within our city parks as well as expand the recreational offerings hosted by the Alma Public Library. Morgan earned her Bachelor of Science Degree in Environmental Studies from Alma College and has a background in parks and recreation. If you have questions or suggestions, please reach out to Morgan at [email protected]! And be sure to follow our new FB page- City of Alma Parks and Recreation. Great things are happening!
