Unsung Park Board members have a passion for city’s parks, rec programs
The members of the New Hampton Park Board come from vastly different backgrounds, but when they gathered last Wednesday night — as they do once a month January to December — they shared a common bond: A love for the city’s parks and its recreation programs.
And New Hampton Parks and Recreation Director Rick Kramer believes the six members — Connie Boyd, Sarah Dungey, Perry Laures, Steve Murray, Eric Robinson and Andrea Rochford — are unsung heroes for the city they call home.
“For what they get paid, I don’t think people have any idea how hard they work for the city,” he said. “I know they’re my bosses, but I’m not just saying that because of that. They do a lot of great things for our city, and they pretty much do it without much credit.”
