Hi everyone! I’m Emily, the Marketing and Event Coordinator here at Willard Parks and Recreation. I have the best job – I get to plan all the fun events for the community! When I’m not at work, I’m usually spending time at home with my husband, Kyle and my two dogs, Indie and Apollo. I love reading new books, going to the movies, relaxing at Table Rock Lake, watching the Cardinals play, and visiting my favorite place on Earth – Disney World! I can’t wait to meet all your smiling faces and look forward to creating memorable events for the City of Willard!

Hey guys, I’m Sam! If you’re browsing our website or social media, you’re in my realm! When I’m not creating things that catch your eye, I’m planning the next big thing at Willard Parks! How fun is that? In my spare time, I love wrestling with my dogs and hanging out with my kiddo. They’re a crazy bunch that always makes me giggle. You’ll see me around town, partnering with local businesses to create the next fun thing for our little community, Willard football games, Willard Chamber Choir concerts, and walking my little dachshund Beans. If you spot me, please say hello and we can talk about what you’d like to see us offer next. I love crazy ideas and making fun happen!

I am a total nerd for fun. My whole life revolves around focusing on what makes happiness happen, and I am happy when I am a part of something bigger than myself. I love Parks and Recreation, not just as a career, but as a philosophy. There is something special about providing opportunities for the community, for seeing the light bulb come on in a young person as they finally grasp a new skill, and about providing a safe place for kids to push their limits and learn something about themselves. I am happy to be a part of this community, to be involved in the good causes that this community champions, and to make new relationships with new people. I am happiest, though, when I am with my wonderful wife, Rachel, and our classy and dignified dog Gotham, cruising back roads in the country with the top down and the radio playing an eclectic mix of Appalachia Bluegrass and 90’s hits. Stop in to the Rec and say hi and bring an idea for a program you would like to see Willard Parks and Recreation offer. Until then, get outside, and PLAY! And always: GO CHIEFS!
